Activision: ‘DESTINY’ is like totally going to be “BEST SELLING” original game ever

DESTINY

Activision! Bold words. Or are they? I’m no economist. No projector of market forces. However, it doesn’t seem too daring to predict that Destiny may end up as the best selling original game ever.

SPACE SWOON: Here’s a look at EARTH from MARS.

Earth.

Stunning picture of Earth from Mars right up in here. Perspective++, brolos. Ain’t nothing better than being reminded that we’re just a little cute irrelevant speck in the cosmic dust. If we used that revelation to strive for something bigger, of course. Oh, me? I’m going to slap Double Gulps from 7-Eleven all day and look at porn. I’m no leader! You, go, start the revolution. Or pass the Fritos, I don’t care.

Paul Bettany.

Vision is coming to the Marvel movie universe. By way of Jarvis. Whelp. Looks like the whole Jarvis-goes-Vision-somehow-creates Ultron storyline is gaining plausibility.

The bad news: it appears that we’re not getting Black Ops 3 this year. The good news: it is because Activision has switched the franchise’s different series over to three-year development cycles.

DEFINITE: ‘PREACHER’ heading to AMC; Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg writing

Preacher.

What the fucking golly gosh is this? TV adaptation news day? Third fucking story in the last twenty-four hours. Anyhoo! Less grousing, more newsing. Out of the three stories, this is my favorite. Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg are definitely bringing Preacher to AMC.

Neil Gaiman’s ‘AMERICAN GODS’ getting another run at TV adaptation

American Gods.

American Gods. Getting another shot at life as a television series. I’ve been sitting on this one for a few days. Talked to some lovely people on the OL Facebook page about it. Ruminated further.Still don’t know how I feel about this.Ya see, it’s no longer being done over at HBO. Instead it’s being helmed by people responsible for some of CW’s lovely programming. (And not Arrow, okay fans of the show? I know I probably should be watching that.)

Mars wins. Mars loses.

Not everything is Ray Bradbury and Mars Attacks up on the surface of the Red Planet. (What does that mean? Nothing. Just making up nonsense.) An asteroid struck the face of Ares between 2010 and 2012, leaving Mars feeling a little blue.

ABSURD: ‘RESIDENT EVIL’ composer is a fraud. Also may not be deaf as he claimed

Sick mane of hair.

Ridiculous news the last couple of days. For starters, the dude who “composed” the score for some prominent Capcom games turns out to have…not composed them. He was lauded at the time for crushing these soundtracks despite having gone deaf. Now the winds of truth have blown in, and it turns out the dude hired a ghostwriter for the scores. Oh, and he may not be deaf.
