I just watched the new trailer for Dark Knight Rises, and I have to admit that I liked the hell out of it. It immediately made me wonder who would win the box office race between it and the Avengers. But, truthfully, which ever one wins, we all win as the viewing audience. The big loser will be Warner Brothers, because they'll be tasked with finding a director to replace Nolan for future Batman movies. Good luck with that. That said, I really hope that the inclusion of Catwoman doesn't screw up the movie.
The time is upon us, and I'll be going to see a special preview of the Avengers tomorrow night. With that finally out of the way, I'll be able to focus all of my desire on Starhawk.
Due to the overwhelmingly positive response to the Hulk in the aforementioned Avengers movie, there is talk that there may be another solo Hulk movie in the works. To tell the truth, I kind of hope not. Let's just let the Hulk be an awesome part of something bigger, rather than the main attraction. At least, that's how I feel before seeing the Avengers.
A new trailer was released for Metal Gear Rising, and I don't know what to think. Kotaku said it looked like a bad acid trip, but I think it's even worse. Wait and see, I guess.
Speaking of Kotaku, they've reported that Dead Or Alive 5 will feature see through shirts. I remember my first time playing the first DOA, and turning the boob jiggle all the way up; the fact that this was even an option was amazing. In short, it was hilarious and awesome. Good to see (I guess) that Team Ninja is still spending so much time taking care of the digital boobies. Or maybe it's creepy...I can't seem to decide.
Skyrim's Dawnguard dlc will be coming out this summer. Looks like I'll have even more fun when I finally break down and buy Skyrim.
In Starhawk news, beta testers will be getting a cosmetic perk in the form of a glowing gold hand. Also, beta testers who were also Warhawk players will get the Warhawk paint set for vehicles which is exactly what it sounds like. Dylan Jobe has stated that these items will never be re-released or sold, so this is a one time good deal. No word yet on how these gifts will be distributed. Needless to say, this is pretty cool.

The Daily Bleven --April 24
The PS Vita will be getting Skype video and voice calling later today along with the regularly scheduled PSN update. I don't think that's going to sell any systems for Sony, but I guess it's a nice feature for people who already have or plan to get a PS Vita.
I used to be a big reader of Top Cow comics back in the day, so when I found the Artifacts miniseries on sale, I jumped on it, because it was supposed to be a good jumping-on point for new or lapsed readers. Here's the deal: it is bad. The art isn't great, the writing is so-so, and the whole story is just a thinly veiled universe reboot. The worst part has to be the editing, though. The editor is supposed to look over a story, make sure it makes sense, and make sure it flows. Comics are a visual medium, and by all rights, you should be able to look at only the art, and get a decent idea of what's going on. Not nearly the case with Artifacts, because the artist makes nearly everyone look identical. I actually had to re-read pages once I realized that there were two separate characters talking. I don't know, maybe what came after Artifacts was great, but Artifacts itself was terrible.
A new G.I. Joe: Retaliation trailer hit the web today, and it still looks good, but there is little chance that I'll see it in a theater since the last movie stank so bad. Maybe some good reviews will change my mind.
There's apparently an 8th Avengers clip online, and I have no idea how that looks because I refuse to view it. I'm all for advertising a movie, but 8 clips and 5 trailers just spoil too much in my opinion. That said, I'll be first in line to see the actual movie.
Speaking of trailers and the Avengers, there will supposedly be a new Dark Knight Rises trailer playing in front of the Avengers. Seeing as how I've only seen one other trailer for the new Batman movie, I approve watching this new one.
Sin City: A Dame To Kill For has started filming. Awesome.
James Cameron and Google execs are backing a company called Planetary Resources located in Bellevue, Washington. This company plans to start mining FRIGGIN ASTEROIDS in as little as four years. Where do I sign up?
Sony released a new trailer for Sorcery today, and that game continues to look good. On May 22nd, it looks like I'll finally have a use for the peripheral that I bought a year ago. Speaking of which, since Move is required, I wonder if Sorcery will have a major impact on Moves sold. For Sony's sake, I hope so.
