The People's Republic of China is to Release a New Gaming Console (and it looks oddly familiar)
As if you didn't know already, China is known for producing a lot of things. This laptop I'm typing on, that mouse you are using to navigate through your work's spreadsheets, and various other things including your Xbox 360 and PS3 consoles. However, there's another side of that coin, as China is the world's largest producer of rip-off and counterfeit items and other items, such asactual video

Play as the Devourer of Worldsin Ultimate MVC3
I always wished there was some way to play as the boss, seeing as they are the cheapest of the cheap and have all the cool abilities. Aside from the instance of playing as Apocalypse in X-men vs Street Fighter on the PS1, there really was no chance of you ever taking the reigns of the other bosses like Abyss in Marvel vs Capcom 2...until now.
Thanks tosome

People at iD Software Really Love Breaking Bad (but then again, who doesn't like Breaking Bad?)
So, if you're like me, when I take a break from PC and console gaming, I like watching some of my favorite shows on basic cable. In my past blogs, I've told you of my favorite shows like The Walking Dead, House, and Gilmore Girls, but I never did mention one of my favorite shows that I'm catching up on, Breaking Bad on AMC.

Controversy Over Similar Looking Logos Is Now Taken to Court
Electronic Arts, the video games publisher, is taking the fitness supplies company Energy Armor to court. The reason why?

Method Man is known for a lot of things. He's a member of the Wu Tang clan, he loves video games (Def Jam Vendetta: FFNY was awesome), and has a sense of humor (despite we should ignore the "Method and Red" sitcom from years ago). However, I never expected the same man rapping about Sour Patch Kids. In this Youtube video called"World Gone Sour (The Lost Kids)" he raps about an incident involving missing sour-sweet candy pieces. This is
