#7









Don't you just love puns? On an entirely unrelated note, it's behooves me to point out that Jared is moving to New York this week. We wish him luck.

On an entirely unrelated note, it's worth mentioning some Comic Con news that may have slipped through the cracks. Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World: The Game finally got a release date for the 360. Check out the new trailer too, it's full of awesome. The attention to detail is evident even in this little snippet. My favorites include Kim and Knives during the "KO!"portion and the zombies. Zombies make everything better. I'm not sure what it is about this franchise, but everything that touches it is incredible, and I'm super psyched that we Xbox owners only have to wait a few weeks after the PS3 release, rather than months as was previously speculated.

Frankly the degree of overlap in my favorite media is pretty ridiculous. Bryan Lee O'Malley wrote Scott Pilgrim. Anamanaguchi did the music for the Scott Pilgrim game. They also do much of the music for Penny Arcade's videos. Penny Arcade forms a full half of the legendary Acquisitions Incorporated, with Scott Kurtz and Wil Wheaton rounding out the party. Wil Wheaton, of course, appears in The Guild, starring Felicia Day. It's like a ridiculous Kevin Bacon game with a nerditude twist. Frankly, I wouldn't have it any other way.
