Pokemon Black 2 and White 2 announced! / new pokemon?

Game Freak's Junichi Masuda revealed the "third entry" into the Pokemon 5th generation franchise, which actually ended up being "third and fourth entries".

Pokemon Black 2

and

Pokemon White 2


Instead of going in the direction most assumed with Pokemon Gray, Masuda announced Pokemon Black 2 and Pokemon White 2. Another surprising part of the announcement is that the games will be releasing for DS, as opposed to the 3DS. Next week Masuda teased that he would reveal the names of the legendary Pokemon that will be featured in the games.

Pokemon Black And White 2 will be releasing in Japan in June. No word on the stateside release, or even a true confirmation that they will come out here, but it's a pretty safe bet that we will see localized versions shortly after they release in Japan.

Here are the first teaser images of the new games:
These are supposedly two of the many legendaries to be in Black and White 2. But dont they look very very similar to Reshiram and Zekrom??? Here's some possibilities:

- Perhaps now legendaries can finally evolve?

- perhaps they just happen to look like Reshiram and Zekrom, and are actually new?

-and then there's this:

And this:
Kyurem, the Ice Dragon Pokemon, was originally meant to be one the rumored Gray version, which was not to be. So is it possible that this is Kyurem's way to make it onto the cover? Could Pokemon be actually doing something new? Can Pokemon now MORPH???!!!??!!?!

What are your thoughts?

the Amazing Spider-man game gets a new trailer, and will be out in June

Let's be honest, many movie based games tend to suck. But the past three spider-man movie based games have proven to be somewhat excellent (the second one in particular). And now there will be a fourth movie game. And what better way to get people interested than to show off one of Spider-man's most unique villains? Three cheers for Rhino!!!



They actually made him more mutant like then having him be just a buff man in a rhino costume. So far only Rhino and the Lizard (obviously) are confirmed as villains in the game. And like all other Spider-man games, this will be open world.

P.s. did anyone notice funny boss fight resemblence in there with Rhino being in the electrical room? *cough*Batman:arkhamcity*cough*

Chainsaw Lollipop: most screwed up game in history

Where can you find cheerleader zombie slayers, a two headed bear zombie, and a decapitated boyfriend? That's right, you can find all those and more in the soon-to-be released game called Lollipop Chainsaw. We don't mean to be racist, but we swear those Asians are drinking too much of the Mercury in their water supply to come up with such a messed up game as this. Here is the newest trailer: (the trailer is in japanese and is absolutely weird as #$%*)

PSVITA game cases, the small game cases

The Vita come out in just two days, and already most of the Vita games are hitting shelves at the local gaming store or market. Ever wondered what a Vita game case looks like and what the game cartridge looks like?





Case: It's great to see a new look to a case, every gaming console case has a specific look to them (PS3=clear Blu-ray cases with red greatest hits cases, 360=green DVD cases with gray/silver platinum hits cases, Wii=white DVD cases with occasional colored cases for special events, DS=small square-ish cases with a unique aspect, PSP=small and tall and skinny clear cases). We know for a fact that many many people dig the royal blue color to it.
Cartridge: They went with what the Nintendo DS originally invented, the idea of using little "cards" that can hold the whole game plus future downloads for that game. Sony still however managed to give these little "cards" a somewhat new look to them (the Vita logo and curved top).


Now what about size comparison's? how small is the cases for the Vita? Have a look:

Compared to the DS case, it is basically the same height (perhaps a centimeter bit taller) and it is not as wide as the DS case which is known for it's wideness.

The PSP case will easily be taller, especially after the DS comparison, but it's not as wide as the Vita case.


Compared to a PS3 case, the PS3 Blu-ray case is about 2 inches taller, maybe more, and a bit wider.



Compared to 360 and Wii cases (both the same size), the DVD case is maybe 3 to 4 inches taller than the Vita. And much wider too.


So do you like this new case design?
