Episode 32: Geek Ink

It makes me sad to type it but my gaming heitus continues. Summer is just too damn busy BUT I am going to try and squeeze in some Diablo 3 this weekend... hopefully. Anyways, let's get to the new stuff!

NCAA Football 13 is coming to Xbox360 and PS3 this week. Like every year, basically the same game with a few updates. This time they decided to leave the gameplay and add "Sights and Sounds" which adds pre-game traditions. Heisman Challenge will allow you to play as a past Heisman winner on ANY team.


Ice Age: Continental Drift - Arctic Games makes its way to Xbox360, Wii, DS, and 3DS. I usually trash video game adaptations of movies but this one is more of a collection of mini-games like Glacier Hopping and Coconut Slingshot so it should be pretty entertaining! Xbox version requires Kinect.


The only original game coming this week is Quantum Conundrum for Xbox360 and PS3. You play as a boy who's uncle's house has been altered by insane experiments and must solve physics puzzles to survive.


In other gaming news, Michael Fassbender (X-Men: First Class, Prometheus) will star as Desmond in the upcoming Assassin's Creed MOVIE!

They are still looking for a director and writer for the project. The legendary Paul McCartney recently tweeted a picture of himself working with the creators of Halo on music for a game that hasn't been announced yet.


Another Walking Dead game is on the way. It'll be a shooter centered around Daryl and his brother Merle before they met up with Rick in Atlanta. 


Transformers: Fall of Cybertron will be coming August 21st. Here's the trailer:


R&B singer Sean Kingston got a very awesome, very geeky Super Mario Bros. half sleeve tattoo recently.


And there you have it, lots of big releases slated to be coming our way in the 2nd half of 2012 so plenty to look forward to. As always, I'll post a list below of upcoming releases. Until next time, get out there and get your game on!
