VIDEO GAME FAMILIES

Keeping with Canada's holiday today, Family Day, here is a short list of some of the families within video games through out time. From blood relation, to families based on nothing more than love and respect. Here they are...

The Mario Brothers

(Super Mario Bros. franchise)

Have they ever given us Mario and Luigi's last name? Or is Mario's legal handle, Mario Mario? Most likely Luigi stuck in his brothers shadow. As is the case in some families.

The Lee Family

(Double Dragon)

Billy and Jimmy Lee. Or if prefer the Americanized version, Hammer and Spike. Twin brothers, who fight together, and respawn together.

The Kong Family

(Donkey Kong franchise)

We'll focus more on Donkey Kong's clan, even though everyone seems to have the same last name. First there is Cranky Kong aka Donkey Kong Sr. (DK's grandfather) and his wife Wrinkly Kong, Donkey Kong Jr (DK's father....Sr and Jr), and of course Donkey Kong himself.

The Koopa Family

(Super Mario Bros. franchise)

There would be almost no need for Mario and Luigi if not for Bowser and his crew, or Koopalings rather.

THE ICEMAN COMETH!

We got our first look at the upcoming story based DLC for the video game "Batman: Arkham Origins" today via DC All Access. And as everyone predicted, the story is focused on the frosty member of Batman's rogues gallery, Mr. Freeze.

You can check out the video below, which has the "trailer" as well as a brief discussion on what else we can expect to find in the "Cold, Cold Heart" story based DLC, which is luckily in game, and not just another challenge map like the initial DLC's were. We learn that there will be a new suit for Batman helping him to battle the cryogenic weapons of Freeze and his comrades. As well as some new gadgets.

I am sure there will be on this before it is ready for download on April 22nd, 2014, but until then or until more is revealed, here is the first glance at "Cold, Cold Heart" DLC content coming for "Batman: Arkham Origins":

Stay Nerdy!
