News - The Penguin: Comic-Book Stories Are Still Ashamed of Being Comic-Book Stories
When Fox put the first X-Men movie together, producers looked at the pages of the comics and worried about whether moviegoers would be put off by the silly clowns dancing around on the pages even as they salivated at the potential profits those silly clowns promised. They took inspiration from The Matrix, according to Kevin Feige, and instead put the team in black leather--and then wrote in a joke about yellow spandex just to remind us what a bunch of dummies we are for liking the source material, comic books. Nearly a quarter of a century later, Marvel Studios has changed the conversation, giving us great-looking, faithful reproductions of characters like Wolverine, Ant-Man, Captain Marvel, and Spider-Man among many others. They made $30 billion doing it. So why are there still so many productions out there that seem to be terrified of acknowledging their source material? DC recently debuted the movie Joker: Folie à Deux, and we're a few episodes into HBO's The Penguin--two dramatic adaptations of well-known DC villains that promise an in-depth look at these villains as if they were real people. Both seem to be begging us every minute to forget that they're based on comics. Continue Reading at GameSpot

News - This Helldivers 2 Competitor Is Out Today, Do You Want To Know More?
There are plenty of high-profile releases out this month, but if you're looking to do your part in the ongoing war with bugs, you can now grab Starship Troopers: Extermination on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. It's launching in a post-Helldivers 2 gaming landscape, but if there's one thing that makes a bug hunt stand out in this game, it's that it allows for larger 16-person squads of Mobile Infantry grunts to be deployed and it makes use of a base-building gameplay mechanic. "We're full 16-player, we have a different gameplay loop, we have building as a core component of our loop," game lead Peter Maurice said to GameSpot in an interview. When you dig deeper, you pull that one layer off, you can see that there's two really distinct games: They kill bugs. We are the bug game." Both games do feature some similarities--like an ongoing galactic war metagame, cosmetics, and cheeky satire--but Helldivers 2 was inspired by Starship Troopers whereas Extermination is a licensed adaptation based on the IP made popular by the 1997 Paul Verhoeven-directed film.
