Travis Touchdown vs. The World?

Wednesday, July 14th, 2010

It’s no secret that I am a huge No More Heroes fan, and just as big a fan of Bryan Lee O’Malley’s series.  We at GNSU are anticipating the movie coming this August and apparently so is Youtube user kmhikari!  They combined the audio from the Scott Pilgrim trailer with scenes from No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle to create this fantastic fan trailer.  Check it out below:

New track from the upcoming Scott Pilgrim game

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

Hell yes! Anamanaguchi, the wonderful music wizards that they are, have released a new track from the upcoming Scott Pilgrim game.  Holy shit does this reek of fantastic.  Their chiptune meets rock and roll styling are clearly inspired by games of old so clearly they were a perfect choice for the side scrolling beat ‘em up due out on PSN August 10th (TBA for XBLA).  The 6th and final book drops one week from today and the movie is out on the 13th of August.  If you aren’t in the know with Scott Pilgrim or Anamanaguchi, then get in it or you are missing out.

It’s made it almost impossible to shift any significant volume. The DSi combated it a little bit, but the 3DS has taken that a step further.What excites me even more (than 3DS games) is that there’s technology built in that device to really combat piracy.”

Dead Rising 2 Box Art + more!

Thursday, July 8th, 2010

This man gives no fucks

Capcom released the box art for Dead Rising 2 today, and I think it captures the spirit of the game rather well.  While our hero looks rather dapper with his  motorcycle jacket and chainsaw-oar-deathmachine, I kind of like the look our pal in the tuxedo is sporting with the Servbot helmet.  More news after the jump:
