This week’s assignment for The League: Who would you take in an 80′s character fantasy draft? Your team’s goal will be to defeat a shady conglomerate of Russian businessmen and their team of hired ninjas. It’s go time. I skipped most of the obvious candidates for this assignment.

Sub-Zero (Mortal Kombat Klassics)
The other day, I was at a store, perusing the action figure pegs and I came across a 4 inch. Sub-Zero figure that looked substantially different than the one I reviewed not long ago. A closer inspection revealed that Jazwares made another line of MK figures under the “Klassic” moniker, and this was one of them.

Epic Live-Action War Between Old School & New School Video Games
Freddie Wong and Brandon Laatsch of Rocket Jump teamed up with VFX house Playfight to create an epic battle in the streets between some of gaming’s greatest icons. We’re kind of bummed at the lack of Pac-Man and Space Invaders, but the ultra-sexy Leeanna Vamp as Lara Croft more than makes up for it.

The Unfinished Swan For PS3 Looks Kind Of Depressing, But Still Awesome
Sony released this new story trailer for The Unfinished Swan being developed by Giant Sparrow and it’s kind of a bummer. When I first saw this game I immediately knew it’d be right up my alley, but I never once considered the story aspect of it. Turns out, it’s about a little boy who’s mother died and left behind a bunch of unfinished paintings, but the jerks at the orphanage only let him keep one of them. He chose the Unfinished Swan.
Holy sadness. Let’s cheer ourselves up by watching the game’s stylish artsy-fartsy gameplay.
Refreshing ideas like this are the reason we love video games so much. There’s no official release date on this downloadable PSN title yet, but we’ll keep you posted.
