Assassin's Creed IV : A Pirate's Life For Me

Even though it feels like Assassin's Creed III just came out yesterday, Ubisoft just unleashed a flurry of 'leaks' regarding the next installment in the Assassin's Creed series, which might actually be a welcome thematic departure from the typical flavor of the series. Slated to release this October, the official fourth installment of the series will hopefully take some of the best aspects of it's lackluster predeccesor (The naval combat) and add some new gameplay elements, combat improvements and a fresh setting to hopefully bring some life back to the over-sequeled series.

Featuring Edward Kenway as the new pirate flavored assassin, the setting and premise is introduced by Blackbeard himself in the CG trailer for Black Flag. Here's to hoping that Ubisoft can reinvigorate this franchise for the current and next gen platforms it's slated to release on (PS4) this October.

Roster For Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3 Leaks: Who's New?

Snazzy new boxart for a $40 rerelease. Thanks to Neogaf for uncovering the leak.

I'm kind of glad I didn't buy Marvel Vs. Capcom 3, because after the whole Street Fighter 4/Super Street Fighter 4 releases...I kind of had a feeling that they were going to pull off a similar maneuver to maximize profits. Clever girl, Capcom.

During last weekends San Diego Comicon, Capcom revealed four new characters for this upcoming 'Ultimate' rerelease of the fighting game. Among them: Firebrand, Hawkeye, Ghostrider and the absent fan favorite, Strider Hiryu. However, a few savvy members from the gaming forum called Neogaf did a little work and managed to find some files on the Capcom servers that weren't mean to be seen yet. Curious as to who the other eight characters are going to be? Check out the remaining eight after the break!

Modern Warfare 3 Gameplay Trailer Released!

Its here.  We don't know if it was an intentional leak by Activision or an employee related one, but the trailer has just landed for the new Modern Warfare 3 game, dubbed as 'MW3.' The scale looks absolutely amazing, with the conflicts now spanning New York, Germany, France and England...My question is, who are we going to be fighting in this next installment?  The set pieces look as over the top as ever..and after having felt a little underwhelmed by Black Ops, I'm looking forward to the next big installment all over again, November 8th.

Marvel VS Capcom 3 Intro Leaked

The full intro to the upcoming Marvel Vs Capcom 3 just leaked.  If you don't care about spoilers(not that there's going to be much of a coherent plot in that game), its pretty damn awesome.

Thundercats Cartoon: First Look!

The first image of the new Thundercats from the upcoming 2011 cartoon show has been snapped by a participant at the London toy fair! The designs seem to have been slightly anime-fied, but we're glad they've mostly stuck to the series' roots.

The series will be arriving this year on Cartoon Network.  People seem to be crazy excited about the show because its probably the last great show to get a reboot.  I'm a tad on the concerned side after living through the terrifying bad Masters of the Universe reboot.

As a final note, rumors circulating on the net about the new series speculate that the new show will have a simplified take on the mythology with all the classic cast. The only thing I'm left wonder is, where the eff is Snarf???
