Raven Software Wants a Deadpool Game
Raven Software, makers of the incredibly violent and recently released Wolverine game have come out and said they'd also like to try their hands at making a Deadpool game. Even though Deadpool makes an appearance in the movie X-Men Origins: Wolverine, the Deadpool that Raven wants to use is the one from the comics. Why? "Because he's a smartass."

Marvel vs Capcom 2 Coming to XBLA and PSN, Demo Out on PSN
Let me take you for a ride through the world of rumors and unveilings. Almost 6 months ago Marvel vs Capcom 2 showed up on PartnerNET, the developer version of Xbox Live. Rumors flew abound but soon things quieted down saying it was merely a case of misunderstanding. Misunderstanding has turned into a full fledged game as MvC2 is being re-released this summer on Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network with enhanced graphics and a widescreen format.
You can get a taste of it already on PSN in demo form, but two controllers are required as its local multiplayer only.

Mr. T joins Will Wright to Fight Nazi's
It's a known fact that Mr T. pities the fools, but did you know he also fights Nazi's? And did you know Will Wright, maker of the Sims and Spore, wants to help? And no, Will Wright isn't MAKING the game - he's in the game.
The game is coming courtesy of ZootFly and will be based off Mr. T. graphic novels. How can this not be awesome?
