Spider-Man: Web of Shadows coming to Wii


Keep in mind, this is not the Wii version

Take note, webheads: a new Spidey game is being made for the Wii (along with those other systems nobody cares about). It's called Spider-Man: Web of Shadows and will once again feature the tried-and-true sandbox mechanic of a fully-explorable New York City. Other than that, we know that the game is being worked on by Treyarch and Shaba Games and will feature some kind of system that allows for customizable superpowers. Also, players will have some control in determining whether they want to be the boyscout do-gooder or a more selfish anti-hero type.

Perhaps even cooler than the news of there being a new game is word that Activision will be holding auditions for folks to do the voiceover work in the game at their booth at the upcoming New York Comic-Con. The winner will be determined by open voting, which will go down at the game's official website here.

Broken Saints trailer from Comic-Con


A trailer has popped up on You Tube showing the trailer that was unveiled during the recent comics convention known as Comic-Con in San Diego. Some of the video's segments look like in-game footage and overall the trailer shows some very inspired artistic styles, so color us interested in Broken Saints: The Game.

The video might be considered NSFW for a short clip of a naked lady from a distant view, so keep that in mind before clicking on to watch the video embedded in the second half of this post.

Confirmed: lightsaber-on-lightsaber action for Wii

Oh yes, young padawan -- a LucasArts rep confirmed the development of a Star Wars game for Wii (and some other next-gen platforms, but who cares?). We were pretty sure this was coming (we figured someone at LucasArts had seen the Wiimote, after all), but it's always nice to be proven right.

The Wiire reports the good news breaking during a Q&A session at San Diego's Comic-Con, and the Wiimote was specifically mentioned, so it follows that the game will incorporate the controller in some sweet saber-swingin' action. Let's hope it's actually designed to work with the hypersensitive Wiimote and not just some lame patch they work up for Nintendo.

Now the real question is: will the Wiimote speaker churn out the zippy lightsaber sound effects? Anything less would be shenanigans.

Watch movies on your Wii!
