Kitase: FFVII Remake Would Be Too Different. Or Uh, Too The Same. Uh. Uh.
The never-ending cry from Final Fantasy VII fanboys and fangirls for a remake drudges on. Final Fantasy XIII2: Ghost Protocol producer Yoshinori Kitase touched on the continual clamoring with a bit of equivocating.

The Lizard From ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ Movie Gets First Look. As Pez Dispenser.
I can understand movie studios’ reticience for dropping the reveals on the baddies for their comic flicks. The problem is that they then often get spoiled in less than thrilling ways. Promo art. Cereal boxes. Now? Pez dispensers.
THIS WEEK ON Walking Dead: Pretty Much Dead Already
Here it is folks, the mid-season finale of the Walking Dead. We start out with Glenn’s trademark speech craft ability. Glenn announces that the barn is full of walkers. This of course causes a panic amongst the survivors. This revelation presents a few problems for everyone. For Rick it means that he has a new complication with Hershel. For Glenn, it’s the betrayal of Maggie’s trust. For Shane, this is a security threat. The lion’s share of this episode is going to be focusing how everyone handles this new development. I love how the opening ended with a throwback shot of the barn door bulging slightly as Shane got near. Reminded me of the hospital shot during season 1.
Video: Pee-Based Video Games Hit Urinals In UK. Wicked Pissah?
Piss-based urinal games have been holding it down in Japan for a while, but their beauty, elegance, and urine-soaked pants side effects have been marching West. The UK has got these glories, and I can only watch the forthcoming video in jealousy.
DC Comics Is Named One Of America’s Hottest Brands. Well Done, ‘New 52’.
Whatever misgivings I have with the DC Reboot-Relaunch-Refried Beans, it’s a success. The company is crushing it in sales (though I’m sure Economist Wizards have found ways to dismiss this, frankly numbers are above my head), and they’ve also been named one of My Country Tis Of Me’s hottest brands.
Ancestor Of All Life On Earth Was Planetary Super-Organism? Dork Squee!
News specifically designed to manipulate my Science Dork G-Spot is this idea put forth by researches at University of Illinois. Even while it’s probably doomed to being disproved let us speculate and moan.
Asteroid ‘Vesta’ Gets A Landslide, Fleetwood Mac Approves. Gettitlol?
Artists Reworks ‘The Avengers’ Promo Art To Give Dudes Poppin’ Booties.
All of the shit coming out from the Avengers movie has been rather dope to me. However one of the glaring problems I have with the materials is the unsurprisingly ridiculous sexualization of Black Widow. Listen, I get it. It tickles my balls. But it’s silly. She’s always pursing her lips with her half-unzipped leather get-up and her ass out. Artist Kevin Bolk riffed on this absurdity by applying the same backbreaking poses to the dudes of the film in some art of his own.
Hit the jump to check it out.
Next ‘Kinect’ To Be So Accurate As To Read Lips. Thought Police Cackle.
I already thought it was creepy when it turned out that the Kinect could figure out what sort of clothing we’re wearing and report it to advertisers. The next Kinect? Motherfucker is going to be reading your lips.
Rumor: Sony Dropping Their Own ‘Super Smash Bros.’ Type Game.
It’s a move that makes too much sense. Sony bundles up a collection of their characters and has them throw down in a Super Smash Bros. manner. Too much sense to actually happen? Not if one Twitter account and the rumor mill has anything to say about it.
