Following The Wrap's claims that Patty Jenkins stepped away from directing Wonder Woman 3 over her refusal to submit another treatment for it to DC execs, she has tweeted a definitive rejection.

This is simply not true. I never walked away. I was open to considering anything asked of me. It was my understanding that there was nothing I could do to move anything forward at this time.

As announced and on time, Warner Bros. have introduced the new 4 player co-op Heroic Assault content featuring interstellar villain Starro, and with it also a surprise 2 player co-op supercharged villain Showdown mode for action roleplaying game Gotham Knights.

Looks about what you'd expect but immediately the writing jars.

Doom Patrol S4

Submitted by ionscifi on November 24, 2022 - 14:57

Fresh from HBO is a NSFW kind of fresh trailer for the fourth season of DC's Doom Patrol.

No really. Don't play this one at work. A few of those scenes are potential shockers.

A few days ago (November 10), Kevin Conroy died.

He was best known for voicing Batman in a range of animated works and computer games dating back to the early 90s Batman: The Animated Series.

Our Gotham Knights

Submitted by ionscifi on November 11, 2022 - 08:31

Several major gaming sites reviewed action roleplaying Gotham Knights as so bad you'd think it completely unenjoyable, eg. IGN (5/10) and Gamespot (4/10).

It's not perfect and some of their complaints have merit but having fully (new game plus max level and all achievements) played it ourselves, know it to deserve something more like an 8/10.
