Batman: The Brave and the Bold is a colourful 2D beat-em up in a world where dark and gritty 3D action adventure reigns supreme. Can it possibly succeed where other Batman brawlers have failed?

Reminding us that the movie based on Mark Millar’s award-winning comic book Kick-Ass has hit cinemas is one of the few good things to come from this trailer for the PlayStation Network video game.

The characters from the movie based off of Mark Millar’s comic book Kick-Ass completely kick arse in this trailer for WHA Entertainment’s video game adaptation for the iPhone and PlayStation Network, and somehow that doesn’t seem right.
As promising as Capcom’s upcoming Wii game Spyborgs is, it runs the risk of suffering the fate of the company’s last Wii original. But Capcom thinks it figured out what went wrong last time.

Back in 2006, SNK’s Overseas Marketing Manager Yoshihito Koyama told me that the Osaka-based developer thought a “good time” to release a PS3 game was 2009-10. SNK confirmed that King of Fighters XII would be hitting North America on the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360 in early 2009. The last non-spinoff entry in the series was KOF XI in 2005, and the upcoming game is a 3D fighter that is shaded to look 2D. Koyama described it as “3D mixed with 2D”. Before that, the title will be rolled in its Japanese arcade version in late 2009. Looking forward to seeing how SNK combines this.
