Remember when we talked about the sneak peek Amazing Spider-Man DVD that came to Walmart today? Well, the video game footage has been released online, so we are bringing it to you.
The game is supposed to be a direct sequel to the movie and will have a number of iconic Spidey foes. I saw Scorpion, Rhino, Iguana, and what may be Black Cat. Rather looking forward to this.
World 1-1 of Super Mario Bros might be the most iconic level in all of video games, but the folks over at Blumasters thought the level could use a little updating. If this was developed as a real game. it might be the first Teen rated game in the Mario franchise. Singing the song in your head makes the video even better.
When I was a kid back in the late Pleistocene Era, a video game was a different beastie. Instead of a Master Chief or a Samus Aran, you took the role of a faceless triangle or square, shooting straight-line lasers at blocky enemies, or perhaps deflecting a square with a straight-line. If you wanted to get really complicated, sometimes there would be TWO squares involved. These days, even the downloadable games for your cellphone have marketable characters with distinct personalities. My daughter’s is still quite enamored of a certain yellow avian who, due to his distinct battle cry, she has dubbed Ray-Ray. For me, thanks to hours spent in front of a PS-2, I still have a soft spot in my heart for budding psychopath Tommy Vercetti and his hideous aquamarine Hawaiian shirt.
The MS-QOTD (pronounced, as always, “misquoted”) has set up you the bomb, asking:
Which pixellated persona is the best video game character of all time?
A while ago, we showed off the first bits from Lollipop Chainsaw.

The game is out now, but if you haven’t seen what the cheerleader/zombie/hack-n-slash game is all about, there is a trailer that features some gameplay for you to check out.

Sony Pictures has released the trailer for Resident Evil: Retribution, and it is massive in scope and story.
The Legend of Zelda may be one of the most beloved game franchises ever, but compared to other games, LoZ merchandise has been relatively hard to find. This is why I’m overjoyed to see that someone is finally creating a Link action figure that his highly detailed, highly articulated, and arrives in October!
The new trailer for Lego Batman 2: DC Super Heroes, not only shows off some more game play, but also many of the characters talking it up with the humor that have made the Lego games a hit.
Ever since I got my hands on the prop replica Portal gun, everyone in the Major Spoilers HQ has been begging – Nay, demanding that we create some funky cool fan film. I think the guys behind Portal: Terminal Velocity beat us to it.

LEGO likes to go have fun with its properties and its video games, and the trailer for Lego City Undercover looks like a blast to play when it arrives on the Nintendo Wii U.
