The film, which is meant to be a “blood relative” to 2008’s found-footage Cloverfield is being made by J.J. Abrams and his production company Bad Robot and after being in secret development all last year, is set for release this March 10. We have put the trailer below for you to enjoy, so make sure you check it out and let us know in the comments whether or not you will be taking a trip down to 10 Cloverfield Lane.

Pokemon-Red-Blue- Covers

The beloved games may only be 20 years old this year, but Pokémon Red and Blue are celebrating by going retro… real retro… vinyl retro to be exact.

A limited edition pressing has been announced containing the original soundtrack from the game, which was composed by Junichi Masuda. Keeping with the Pokémon theme, the record is colored red and white to resemble the iconic Pokeball, only 500 of these things will be made available through the Turntable Lab website and will only cost around 50 US dollars.

Not only are the nostalgic tunes being put on an older medium of music recording, but what really gives this record a retro feel is the design they put on the cover. The artwork and style has been made to resemble The Beetles album Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, right down to the costumes of the four Pokémon and the flowers spelling out the name.

To celebrate the 20th anniversary the Pokémon Company International have announced they will be releasing special nendoroids, trading cards, 3DS and 2DS bundles throughout the year.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows Super Bowl Trailer

TMNT2-Screenshot-01

Cowabunga dude! So, today was the incredible Super Bowl 50, and while Lady Gaga was wowing the world with her rendition of the United State’s National Anthem, and the Broncos defeated the Panthers, my attention was squarely turned towards the plethora of commercials and trailers that aired during the breaks in play. One of the most exciting had to be the short trailer for Paramount Pictures’ upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows.

While I wasn’t the biggest fan of the original film, this new trailer (which we have attached below for your enjoyment) shows off some really cool fan-service that will be present in the film. I don’t want to talk too much about it and instead want to let the video do the talking. So check out the trailer below and let us know in the comments whether or not you will be giving TMNT a second chance.

About Shadowrun: Hong Kong

HONG KONG. A stable and prosperous port of call in a sea of chaos, warfare, and political turmoil. The Hong Kong Free Enterprise Zone is a land of contradictions – it is one of the most successful centers of business in the Sixth World, and home to one of the world’s most dangerous sprawl sites. A land of bright lights, gleaming towers, and restless spirits where life is cheap and everything is for sale.

Shadowrun: Hong Kong is the third standalone game in Harebrained Schemes’ critically-acclaimed Shadowrun cRPG series. Experience the most impressive Shadowrun RPG yet with an all new crew, expanded magic and cyberware, a completely revamped Matrix, an upgraded release of the Shadowrun Editor, and much more!

 

Key Features

  • A Classic, Story-Driven RPG:Shadowrun: Hong Kong hearkens back to the golden age of computer RPG’s with a novel-like, non-linear narrative full of sharp prose and deep character development.
  • A One-of-a-Kind Cyberpunk Setting: Experience the unique tech-meets-magic dystopian future of Shadowrun, a fan-favorite game for over 25 years. Shadowrun: Hong Kong is a perfect entry point to the setting for those with no prior Shadowrun experience, while providing plenty of classic Shadowrun characters and tech for veteran players to sink their teeth into.
  • Command Your Team: Just like Shadowrun: Dragonfall, Shadowrun: Hong Kong features a crew of flawed, dangerous runners with backstories that could only be possible in the tech-meets-magic Shadowrun setting. The members of your team are designed to play contrasting roles during missions, and each has a distinct set of skills, abilities, strengths, and weaknesses. Each team member also has challenges to face in their own lives, which you can choose to brush aside or play an important part in.
  • Gripping, Turn-Based Tactical Combat: When you’re running in the shadows, every turn matters. Choose your actions wisely – move to better cover, charge into melee, or lob a fireball into a crowd of enemies. With over 200 weapons and spells at your disposal, every turn is filled with meaningful choices.
  • Skill-Based Character Progression: Choose a starting character archetype and build from there! Street Samurai and Physical Adepts use advanced combat skills to dominate the battlefield, Shamans and Mages summon powerful allies and cast deadly spells, while Riggers and Deckers provide critical technological support, projecting their consciousness directly into drones and computer systems. Shadowrun: Hong Kong’s classless skill system allows you to grow your character in any direction you choose.
