Based on the web comic created by Steve Stamatiadis (creator of TY the Tasmanian Tiger), Blade Kitten is an anime adventure game of girls, swords and big robots.

Sometime in the future, somewhere that’s not Earth. Kit Ballard is a bounty Hunter and one of the best in the business. Together with her alien sidekick Skiffy and her sword, the Darque Blade, she hunts down rogue mechs and soft targets. Kit becomes the nexus of a tumultuous series of events on the strange planetoid known as DUEL CORE.

Don’t let her cute looks fool you, this Human/Feline hybrid is a devil with her sword and a smart mouth on a hot body. She knows it and isn’t afraid to let the bad guys know it too when she kicks their butts.

Ubisoft has filed a trademark registration for Just Dance.

I presume this is based on robot from the future Lady Gaga’s song of the same name.

This ad for the Atari 2600/5200 release of Mario Bros is better than the Super Mario Bros. film; they should have used this as source material instead of the game.

Blizzard Entertainment filed a trio of trademark registrations for Cataclysm encompassing computer games, paper-based products, and online games.


Edit: WoW.com says that “wowcataclycsm.com” was recently registered by Blizzard’s domain registar. Commenters on the post dug up the registration and say the registrant is some dude in Australia.

Destineer has a new sports game for Wii called Carve It Up.

This wouldn’t be notable if not for carve being snowboard terminology and Destineer releasing the incredibly underrated Stoked a few months ago. Could this be a port or a spinoff?

I guess Eve is indeed the new name of LMNO. Also, the Charles Gibson mentioned above is almost certainly this longtime Verbinski collaborator; I would have said that Splinter Cell: The Movie is a step down from Friday Night Lights, but then I remembered that Peter Berg directed The Kingdom and terrible adaptation* Hancock.



*The film bears so little resemblance to Vincent Ngo’s astonishing spec that it might as well be called an adaptation.

Alongside a trademark registration for the previously announced Aragorn’s Quest, LOTR rights holders The Saul Zaentz Company have filed a game-specific registration for The Lord of the Rings: War in the North.

I say this is what Monolith or Snowblind or Traveller’s Tales is doing.
