And the Iron Man 3 poster bonanza keeps on rolling! Today we get a final one sheet showing a beaten to hell Tony floating atop a piece of debris as all the different versions of his suit take off around him. Rumors suggest that during the film Tony makes an Iron Man army that he controls himself thus the armor he is wearing is the Mark 47 with all the other armors being different Mark numbers.
A new trailer will premiere next Tuesday March 5th at 11AM CST.
Iron Man 3 releases on May 3rd.
Another day, another great Playstation Network sale.
Yesterday we told you about the Spend $50, Get $10 sale and now Sony is making sure you have a great reason to spend that $50 with their Gamers Choice Awards Sale. Playstation 3, Vita and PSP games that were voted on and won are discounted by 30% for PSN users and 50% for PS Plus subscribers. So if you have not picked up certain games that won many other awards (cough Journey cough) then now is the best time to do so.
Seriously if you don’t download the entire The Walking Dead game for less than 10 bucks, you may have problems.
Here is the rundown of what Sony is discounting:

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is apparently going for the record for Oscar winners and nominees to be in a comic book movie.
Not content with just Oscar winners Jamie Foxx and Sally Field or Oscar nominee Paul Giamatti, director Marc Webb has gone out and cast Oscar winner Chris Cooper to play the devious Norman Osbourn in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Osbourn was merely mentioned in the first film and was shown as a shadowy figure on a large television screen inside the Oscorp building.
This is quite the cast being put together for the sequel and whether or not you were on board with the reboot, this cast has to look very impressive. With Foxx playing Electro and Giamatti possibly playing Rhino it looks like Cooper’s Norman Osbourn and Dane Dehaan’s Harry may be getting set up for some big things in a third movie.
Once again I will say…..Sinister Six??
And also this……
The Amazing Spider-Man releases on May 2, 2014.
We are less than a week away from the release of Tomb Raider and Crystal Dynamics and Square are in full-on promotion mode with commercials everywhere you look. Now they have released a new trailer for the game titled “Reborn”. In it footage is shown from the game while many different people name off their strengths as Lara Croft. The stand out in the trailer has to be music which I can only hope is from the soundtrack because it is quite goosebump inducing.
[amazon_link id=”B004FS8LYK” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Tomb Raider[/amazon_link] releases on March 5th.
Capcom has revealed the release date and released a new trailer for their upcoming game Remember Me.
The game is being developed by Dontnod Entertainment takes place in the year 2087 and stars Nilin, a memory hunter whose memory has been erased for some unknown reason. She must piece together past events to discover who is behind this. The combat is very reminiscent of the Rocksteady Batman games which should have this on your radar.
The game was a surprise at E3 2012 and wowed the crowd.

I will readily admit I am excited about Riddick. Despite all the crap I give Vin Diesel, I liked [amazon_link id=”B001RTCP1A” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Pitch Black[/amazon_link] and [amazon_link id=”B001RTCP10″ target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]The Chronicles of Riddick[/amazon_link]. Now this September he and director David Twohy are ready to finish their trilogy. Images have slowly been getting out on the new adventure which will see Riddick stranded on a planet being hunted by the alien inhabitants and hunters trying to collect a bounty on his head.
The newest shot to make its way online has a decidedly Game of Thrones look to it except instead of the doomed Sean Bean on the Iron Throne we get Riddick sitting atop a throne of bones. Why I did not call it the Bone Throne should be painfully obvious to you or any woman I have gone out with.
Riddick releases on September 6th.

During a recent media and technology conference, EA’s chief technical officer,Rajat Taneja, had many glowing things to say about Sony’s recently announced behemoth Playstation 4.
“We are excited about Sony’s news and the launch of the next-gen of consoles. At EA, we have never been as prepared or more ready for the start of a new console.”
Taneja went on to say that there were really no more limits with development that they have experienced in the past.
“We no longer have to constrain our games or ration computer graphics, memory or bandwidth. We can let the games really flourish in 1080p, 60 frames a second” on PS4, presenting “a level of gameplay experience that is unprecedented.”
He also talked of EA’s enthusiasm about the next generation of gaming with the PS4, “We are excited about Sony’s news and the launch of the next-gen of consoles. At EA, we have never been as prepared or more ready for the start of a new console.”
Sony continues to pour on the deals when it comes to the Playstation Network. Until April 1st for every $50 you spend online in the Playstation Store you will get $10 back in your PSN wallet. You can use the reserve of digital download games to make up the money if you wish or buy new backgrounds, movies, etc. Any way to spend $50 will get you a free $10.
For those super deal seekers you can double up on deals. Sony has another deal until March 4th that will get you a free three months of Playstation Plus when you purchase a full year. So conceivably you can buy a year of PS Plus for $49.99 and reserve a game or buy a cheap avatar and get fifteen months of PS Plus and ten bucks back in your PSN wallet.
And if you got a free $10 bucks last week from Sony in your account (raises hand) the deal turns out even better.
