Saints Row Community Q&A 2, Streaking and PC release date

The team at Volition has released a new Q&A video to answer all your questions relating to Saints Row the Third. And although they're trying to answer questions that wont spoil too much the ones in this video are just plain silly, as in the answer was obvious or had no point. But you can see some nifty footage so it's worth something.



for some real news, IGN released a new video of the returning streaking diversion. Fans of Saints Row 2 will remember you could remove all your clothes from your wardrobe and activate streaking to earn respect. It'll be returning just as it was before except there will be some real genitalia present. (don't worry, it's censored)



The whole video can be seen on IGN's website

And lastly, while many companies have delayed the release date of the PC version for multi-platform games, however Volition wanted to reassure their fans that Saints Row the Third on PC will still be released on November 15th with the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions. Good to see that some companies stay true to their fans.

A New Batch Of Palette Swaps For Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3

It's been awhile since I last posted the unveiling pictures of alternate color schemes for Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, but now I bring to you a hand full of them.  A good amount of characters for Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 has gotten their new color schemes; Hulk, She-Hulk, Spencer, Dante, Taskmaster, Iron Man and Storm are the lucky members.

My favorite ones by far are the Age of X Hulk and the Deadpool and Black Knight Task Master. I use Taskmaster's default color scheme just because I really didn't like any of the ones he originally has, but now I can have something else besides his default look.

Tuesday's unveiling will be showing off Doctor Doom's doomtastic fall wear, I'll post them as soon as I can when they come out.

The Flash Review

The Flash has been a comic I have wanted to get into and learn more about, and luckily The New 52 has given me the chance this week with the relaunch of the Fastest Man Alive. The first issue of The Flash from The New 52 was just an alright issue for me, nothing really stood out besides that the artwork was really nice and the end was a surprise.

The beginning of the issue reminded me a lot of Spider-Man in the sense that Barry was on a date at an event, a robbery took place at the event, Barry had to sneak out to turn into the Flash in order to keep his identity a secret and after the baddies are taken care of he sneaks back while someone was trying to find him. I'm not saying all that is a bad thing, it just kept me with something familiar and made me want to read more on what's going on.

The artwork in here was really well done, it's probably one of the best parts about the issue; Brian Buccellato did a superb job with the nice coloring and Francis Manapul was excellent with his crisp artwork. Speaking of the look of the comic, I really enjoyed how the beginning was laid out, it reminded me a bit of a movie. You have the beginning of the comic with something dramatic going on and them the hero comes running out with the credits between each panel of Barry turning into Flash; you really don't see that too much in comics.

In here, we are not given a villain straight away or having some bad guy blow something up, instead we have a mystery at foot in which Barry is trying to figure out, which seems to involve clones of a dead friend of his. It looks like it has potential, that's why I'm going to continue reading, just to see what happens.

I've heard that Flashpoint is still canon in the New 52, I'm not too sure if that is entirely true or not considering I haven't read much DC comics prior to the reboot. If it is true though, then I'm surprised because you don't need to know much backstory unlike Green Lantern, all you need to do is Wikipedia Barry's background and that should be good for now.


Overall, I believed The Flash to be just alright; it wasn't the best comic to come out of The New 52, but it wasn't the worst either. The writing was weak, but what Flash is going to face in the next issue made it interesting at least and the artwork to me is what held the comic together the most. Nothing pops out besides the artwork, the opening and the end. I'm going to continue reading the series though, just to see if it does pick up for me.
