The 10 Weirdest And Best Batman Crossovers In DC Superhero History

1. Batman And Elmer Fudd Hunt Wabbits

There are weird Batman team-ups, and then there’s Batman/Elmer Fudd. Part of a company-wide DC/Looney Tunes crossover, this one is easily the best, and the one most deserving of a sequel, which came out as Batman 67.

Not only are Elmer Fudd, Porky Pig, and even a Mohawk-wearing Tasmanian Devil turned into actual human beings, but Bugs Bunny is a bucktoothed hitman who tricks Elmer Fudd into hunting down Batman. The story is as absurd as it gets, but it is played completely straight, to the point where it actually makes you dislike Bugs and feel sorry for Fudd, who seems like a dangerous hunter capable of hurting the Bat. Elmer Fudd Is also given some Rorschach-like narration and says dialogue like “This is a hawd pwace for hawd men,” which will make you think twice about wabbit season. The art looks straight out of the ’50s, and the dialogue makes the whole thing feel as gritty as the best hard-boiled detective movies.

Obsidian and inXile Both Tried to Get the Rights to Baldur’s Gate 3

Baldur’s Gate 3, the follow-up to two of the most beloved (and arguably best) CRPGs of all-time, was finally announced this month. It is being created by Divinity: Original Sin developer Larian Studios, but it turns out that other prominent RPG developers tried to get their hands on it years ago.

“I love that title,” inXile CEO Brian Fargo told IGN. “You know, both me and

Feargus

were chasing that for years.

Swen

too. All of us, for a decade.”

The longtime Interplay developer continued: “After I left Interplay, it was the first thing I went for. I got very, very close at one point. I had the financing all lined up and then Atari got into trouble…”

7 Biggest Surprises of E3 2019

E3 2019 may have lacked some major names – notably a host of missing, upcoming video games – but that didn’t stop the yearly event from delivering a number of delightful surprises that were, to quote one of this year’s biggest surprises, breathtaking.

There may not have been a last-minute Sony surprise during E3, nor an unexpected new console reveal (Project Scarlett’s reveal had been in the cards for a while), but that didn’t stop these seven surprises from causing the IGN E3 newsroom to erupt into cheers, and hopefully delighted you, too.

Banjo-Kazooie Joins Smash Bros. Ultimate

Nintendo took home the award for Best Surprise at The Game Awards in 2018 for its announcement of Persona 5’s Joker as a Super Smash Bros. Ultimate DLC character. (OK, fine, I was the one who gave it that award, and the company mailed back the trophy I tried to send them,) And, had it not been for the company’s own massive reveal at the end of the Direct, Banjo-Kazooie’s reveal as the third Smash Bros. Ultimate DLC character would have been Nintendo’s biggest surprise at the show.

Here’s Why Everyone Is Freaking Out About HBO’s Euphoria

Warning! Full SPOILERS follow for the Season 1 premiere of HBO’s Euphoria.

HBO is known for pushing the envelope when it comes to sex and violence on TV. The premium network has even gone as far as hiring an intimacy coordinator to help oversee sex scenes in the recent Deadwood film, and upcoming Watchmen series. Most recently, HBO premiered Euphoria, a provocative new teen drama starring Spider-Man: Far From Home’s Zendaya.

Opinion: The Biggest Loser of E3 2019 is… The Year 2019

Note: we published this last week during E3, and have updated with a video component.

We get excited about E3 every year because we get to see what’s coming next. While developers have always called their shots well in advance, announcing games years before release, much of the action at the show revolves around showing games set to launch sometime between July and next year’s E3.

After spending the last week weighing all the publisher press conferences and the deluge of pre-show trailer drops and leaks, I took a step back and noticed that the second half of 2019 feels… light. Many of the biggest games at the show — new and returning — are coming out in the first few months of 2020, or later. And while the cupboard is far from bare — I doubt many of us will have trouble finding games to buy or put on holiday wish lists come December– the dearth of high-profile releases is noticeable.

Microsoft: Scarlett Will Play Every Xbox One Game Ever

Microsoft, with its next-gen Xbox currently known as Project Scarlett, has every intention of having it support four generations of games – the original Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and, of course, each new game coming to the platform.

During Inside Xbox, Xbox head Phil Spencer confirmed Microsoft’s commitment to “respecting the purchases” of its customers and the team’s goal to bring every past game over to Project Scarlett, the next-gen Xbox, as well as accessories like the original Xbox Elite Controller and the new Series 2 Elite Controller.

Mortal Kombat 11, Days Gone Remain the Best-Selling Games of the Month

Mortal Kombat 11 and Days Gone are the best-selling games of May 2019 in the United States – both titles were also the best-selling games of April 2019.

Per this month’s official NPD report, Mortal Kombat was not only May and April’s best-selling game, but is now the best-selling game of 2019 year-to-date, dethroning the long-running leader Kingdom Hearts 3. The NPD Group notes that the second month sales of Mortal Kombat 11 are nearly double that of any other game in the Mortal Kombat franchise.

Watch Dogs: Legion’s Permadeath Means Your Favorite Grandma Is Going to Die

Watch Dogs Legion, Ubisoft’s third game in its hacktivist open-word series, asks a lot of questions. Just how far are we willing to let authoritarianism and corporate greed dictate the course of society? What are the consequences of under-funded public services? What happens when ordinary people make a stand? Its most fascinating question, though, is what if every non-playable character was playable?

I recently visited Ubisoft Toronto to meet with the Watch Dogs Legion team and watch the game being played for 45 minutes. At first glance, Legion is what you would expect from the third game in the Watch Dogs series; there’s an open-world where you can drive cars, hack CCTV cameras, and play havoc with people’s lives and smartphones. But there’s much, much more to Watch Dogs Legion. Underpinning the entire game is an interconnected network of systems that allow for an astonishing set of possibilities.

What Marvel Movies Will Be in Phase 4?

We’re living in a post-Avengers: Endgame world and Spider-Man: Far From Home will officially mark the end of Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. That leaves us to look forward to the future and what lies beyond the Infinity Saga in Phase 4. While Marvel Studios mastermind Kevin Feige hasn’t revealed any official details yet — though that will certainly change during Marvel’s Hall H panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2019! — we actually have a fairly clear idea of what the upcoming movie slate will look like thanks to various film industry reports regarding shooting, casting and such.
