TRAILER: Lara Croft returns

The first full on trailer for the upcoming Tomb Raider game has arrived.  The animation looks great, and the story works for me, but I know there are a lot of people who are up in arms over Lara’s new look, some of the retconning that is going on and more.

GAMING: WALL OF 8-BIT AWESOME IS AWESOME!

Most of the time, when I enter my local big grocery/retail store (let’s call it Targ-mart), I could give two shits craps doo-doos about the wall of art the bored shelf stockers build out of soft drink products.  HOWEVER, now that I’ve seen this awesome wall of Super Mario Bros. art made completely out of Coke and Coke owned soft drinks, I’m sold! Not that I’d drink Coke products – Colt 45 all the way!

Click for desktop sized image fool! (1024x768) What do you mean, your screen resolution is 1920x1080? Screw you, Schleicher!

Now, if only the pimply-faced dork store clerk at my store would get that creative, the store might have more of my money than it does now…

Ubisoft Motion Pictures, the film and television division of the French game publisher, has announced three features based on Assassin’s Creed, Splinter Cell, and Ghost Recon.

An epic action-adventure, “Assassin’s Creed” turns on the conflict between Templars and Assassins, two secret orgs with different ideologies who have influenced, according to the game, most major historical events.

An action drama in the vein of “The Bourne Identity,” “Splinter Cell” turns on an elite secret agent fighting world terrorism and struggling to protect his daughter.

“Ghost Recon,” a tech-driven war actioner set in the near future, follows a secret, elite team of soldiers fighting for world peace with cutting-edge military technology.

According to Variety, Ubisoft Motion Pictures will work with some of its 23 studios to get the films made.
