Where we talk about stuff. And things.
We're a man down this time, so listen to Julian and Patrick talk about a bunch of stuff that nerds who do not wear pants would talk about. What are those things? Good question?
Here's to Deadpool, brought to you by High Moon Studios and Deadpool! But....mostly Deadpool.
When I first started Deadpool, I didn't really expect to like it. I knew it wasn't going to be a grand masterpiece, and I just thought it would be mildly entertaining. I love Deadpool as a character, and enjoyed the comics, but I wasn't sure how it would all come together in the game.
SELECT YOUR CHARACTER!
So, you’ve picked your game and are ready to jump in the ring, but you don’t know where to start. Thankfully, this problem can be solved with the simplest of concepts – favoritism. It’s something that we as people naturally do when it comes to anything we enjoy, and fighting games are no different. When it comes to selecting a game to play, the biggest draw is usually something that you personally find interesting. This also goes for the characters you select to play as. In most cases the character you elect to dedicate most of your time into directly ties into your overall enjoyment of the game. So naturally it’s best to go with what you like.
Ever wanted to learn how to get good at fighting games? Well here are some tips!
Fighting games can be some of the most intimidating games out there. Whether it was back in the arcades where every victory relied on your hard earned money, or today where playing online unprepared can lead to some embarrassing losses. Though a tough nut to crack, fighting games can also be extremely rewarding.
Ignore Julian's coughing: he's just dying a little bit.
Hello, and *cough cough* welcome to *hack* another episode of *wheeze* Nerds Without Pants! Our last episode was so freaking epic that Julian fell ill. Well, not really, but he's rather under the weather this week, so hopefully you enjoy this shorter show as Patrick takes up the slack.

When it came to Injustice: Gods Among Us, my initial reaction was a resounding “meh”. Don’t get me wrong – I’m actually a huge fan of DC Comics, and fighting games for that matter. A few weeks ago, Injustice was a game that I couldn't care less about. I didn’t like the character designs. I wasn’t sure I wanted to learn a new fighting game. And I definitely thought the stage interactions were extremely gimmicky. However, now as I type this, I couldn’t be more pumped to get my hands on the game and explore its intricacies. So you might ask, “What changed your mind JD?” In a nutshell the answer is this – good marketing.
The Merc With a Mouth is getting his very own game.
The San Diego Comic Con is usually home to news about movies, TV shows, and oh yeah, comic books, but it’s also a place for the occasional video game reveal. Such was the case this past week when it was announced that Deadpool - The Merc With a Mouth - would be getting his very own video game adventure.

Brand New Fighting Game Featuring DC Comics Finest.
Continuing the slew of new fighters being introduced this generation, Warner Brothers and NeatherRealm, the makers of the Mortal Kombat series, have announced Injustice: Gods Among Us. This fighter is completely based around the characters within the DC Comics universe and pits them against each other in what are bound to be pretty epic battles. Based on the debut trailer of the game, it seems as if something has happened to the DC Heroes which turns them evil in some way, making them a threat to everyone.
