Gizmodo is reporting that Marvel has announced that by April 2012, almost all of their print comics will be available the same day digitally the same day they are released in stores. This follows DC’s announcement to have day-and-date digital distribution as part of the new 52 relaunch.

Series will start having same day digital releases on a series by series basis between now and April 2012. The only exception to the digital comics are liscences properties and Marvel’s MAX imprint for mature readers.

It goes live very soon. This post will be updated with more information as soon as we’re able to see it.

Testing out a new format. Let me know what you think. Also an 8th Joe figure was announced yesterday, Barrel Roll. This was a little rushed so I know its lacking in a few areas, but I like to experiment.

SimCity 2000 is the most well known entry in Maxis’ SimCity franchise. It expanded upon the original game greatly, adding new types of facilities. Would-be mayors can add everything from zoos, to prisons, to high schools. The game also added an underground plumbing system, a more complex tax system, and since the map was isometric (as opposed to top-down), there was also land elevation. You can play through several scenarios, many of which based off of real-world situations such as the economic depression in 1970s Flint Michigan. Even today, with more advanced city simulators being released, SimCity remains the gold standard in city building. If you have yet to play this classic, Gog.com has it on sale for $5.99.

GI Joe 2: Retaliation will be hitting theaters on June 29, 2012 starring Channing Tatum, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Adrianne Palicki and Ray Park.

Sean plays Sonic Generations on PS3 (in 3D!) and 3DS, plus breaks in from the future to show off some additional modes available in the downloadble trial available for PSN and Xbox Live Arcade.

Vinnk plays Puyo Puyo 20th Anniversary, probably also for the first time in 20 years.

It may not be the Tumbler, but it does look like something out of Bruce Wayne’s garage. Justin Bieber, the 17 year old music sensation of immeasurably wealth and poor fiscal responsibility, hired West Coast Customs (best known for pimping rides) to make him a Batmobile.

Its a Cadillac CTS-V, coated in a matte black finish. The badges have been removed and replaced with the familiar Batman logo. As if to remove any subtlety from the vehicle, the word “BATMOBILE” is also stamped on the back. You’ll also noticed its been upgraded with Suicide doors, because why not. I’m sure there is also a booming sound system in there as well. Oh, and apparently the initials “Jb” appear in the detailing in the side, less you forget who’s car this is.

If you’re hoping he gets pulled over in this ridiculous contraption of childhood excess, then I have good news for you: TMZ reports he cut off a California Highway Patrol officer. Bieber was let off with a warning, but next time he’ll get thrown in Arkham.

Note: This review only covers the single player ‘story’ mode of Uncharted 3. Minor story spoilers follow.

“Admit it, you love all this as much as I do.”

Nathan Drake is back. The third installment in Naughty Dog and Sony’s Uncharted series is titled “Drake’s Deception” but its as much about finding the truth for the characters as anything else.

The opening scene isn’t quite the bizarre event that the train wreck in Uncharted 2 was, but it will get you back in the action quickly. Nate and his partner Victor Sullivan are in London, trading Sir Francis Drake’s ring for a briefcase full of cash when the whole deal goes bad. You’ll end up in a bar fight, which will allow you to control the series’ new overhauled fighting system. Now an elaborate mix of punches, counters, and throws with detailed animations to enjoy with each hit, this is a satisfying way to start up since I don’t think the gun play is Uncharted’s strong suit.
