I’ve got the plague. Okay, not the plague. I actually have several plagues in the palm of my hand thanks to Plague Inc. a great but gruesome iPhone/Android video game that has been out for a little while, but that I just got hip to quite recently. (Thanks, Drew!)
Ubisoft is ratcheting up the eighties-flavored awesome in a new add-on for their critically acclaimed video game Far Cry 3. Called Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon, the game dispenses with the tropical island and main character Jason Brody, replacing them with an eighties version of future America where “The Apocalypse had an apocalypse” and a cheesy catchphrase dropping, throwing star chucking action hero protagonist named Sgt.

Apparently Gearbox has decided that it will feature playable female characters in its Aliens: Colonial Marines video game. It’s surprising to me that the had not originally planned to do so. Aliens featured two female Colonial Marines, Smart-Gun operator Vasquez and Dropship Pilot Ferro, not to even mention protagonist Ellen Ripley.
