There are a million different video game related webcomics around the internet, but Brawl in the Family has to be one of my favorites, as it uses all the characters found in Super Smash Bros. Brawl in a variety of hilarious scenarios.
Well, its’ their 200th comic, and they’ve gone all out and crafted an exceptionally long, musical comic, the full extent of which I couldn’t possibly show you here, but it is in fact the greatest thing I’ve seen all day. Click here or on the picture above to see/hear it for yourself.
I’m 98% ready to write Mass: We Pray off as yet another Wii Parody video, albiet a very good one. But I do have to pause for two seconds as there is actually a company attached to the game called Prayer Works International. This is also likely fake, but it makes me think that maybe, maybe I could actually play this one day. And it would be AWESOME.
Growing up Presbyterian, I missed out on all the fun ridiculous ceremonies of the Catholic Church like lighting candles and swingning urns of incense around, but now thanks to the Wii, I can participate like I’m actually there and filled with shame!
But if it’s fake, I’ll just leave my Wii collecting dust next to my decidedly dust-free Xbox. Wake me up when Mario Galaxy 2 comes out.
This collection of amazing drawings are from Vincent Proce, for a pitch he made to Midway for a multiplayerhack-n-slash Mortal Kombat game that never got off the ground, which as you can see from the sketches, is a damn shame. Really, they picked DC vs MK over this?
In addition to Scoprion up there, he also had concept art for Raiden, Sonya and Kano which I’ve posted after the jump, and hopes to do the rest of the characters in his free time, even though he no longer works for Midway. Some truly awesome stuff here, click on any of the pictures ot make them bigger.
And to answer your question, yes Commando, Alien and Rambo ALL came out before Contra did, so the box art team clearly had a bit of plagiarism going on there. Schwarzenegger could be a goddamn tracing! Good thing they added that headband, or else they might have actually had to have paid royalties!
Anyway, all the movies are awesome and the game is awesome, so I won’t hold it against anyone.
I’m creating, hosting and ending a contest right here and now. The winner of Unreality’s first (and only) ever Best Box Art in the Universe Contest goes to Crack Down, the most WTF game of the century.
I’m too busy playing Bloons Tower Defense to research what this game was about, so I’m just going to go ahead and assume you fight giant demon goats with assault rifles and no shirts while being aided by Stormtroopers and apes. How close am I?
Well today is the offical launch date for Left 4 Dead 2. Unfortunately for me, my Xbox is currently somewhere in Texas getting its guts pulled out, so I won’t have the pleasure for at least a few more weeks.
Until then however, Valve made this, an 8-bit version of Left 4 Dead that you may have found on the NES back in the day. It’s more than just a fun video project however, it’s an actual game that Valve is promising to release in January for free download on PC. Good times all around. Outside of Portal, I may not be a huge Valve guy, but I love their sense of humor.
In the short amount of time I played Call of Duty before my Xbox decided to commit suicide, I got the “Throwing Knife” perk which I found to be completely useless. The only time I could actually hit anyone with it was when I was standing right next to them, and at the point, I might as well have used my melee knife.
But someone, somewhere got either really, really awesome, or more than likely really, really lucky with the knife, and that’s why we now have this, the best COD:MWF2 kill to date. And not only that, but it was the last kill of the game so EVERYONE got to see it in super slow-mo. Double bonus.
