Fans of the old school Mighty Morphin Power Rangers series will want to take a look at this. Developed by Bamtang and published by Namco Bandai, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Mega Battle is a multiplayer action brawler for up to 4 players. The game will feature cutscenes, monsters, and dialogue based on the original series, and will also feature unlockable characters. The game will be coming to Xbox One and PS4 next year. If the gameplay can keep in line with the graphics, MMPR:MB will be an excellent flashback to our childhood.

Sometimes a meme gets by the best of us. We can live on the internet and not see it until an elderly relative likes it on facebook in front of us.
This week we talk Finding Nemo, Cabin In The Woods, and Seth MacFarlane on SNL. In the news we’ll talk Robocop, the Wii U, why Canada’s internet sucks, and finding ourselves on the brink of war with Iran. Also: Gangnam style, Pikachu, and The Green Ranger.
This is a much better episode than last week.
