If you've spent any time reading comics in the past few decades then the name "Joe Madureira" should sound at least remotely familiar to you. The man behind reviving the X-Men has been one of the driving creative forces for one of THQ's most anticipated sequels, Darksiders II. Having dabbled in both the comics and video game industries, Joe Mad has a unique perspective on both, as well as the creative process that drives each of them. We recently had a chance to get his thoughts on comics and games, as well as a look behind the curtain of Darksiders II.

Like an eagle diving after its prey, the latest trailer from Ubisoft's highly praised 'Assassin's Creed' franchise drops in for the kill.
Finally breaking out of Europe, the assassins come stateside to mete out their justice with the Revolutionary War as its backdrop. We learned earlier that you'll don the classic white cloak as series' new comer, Connor. Now we get to see him in action as he glides effortlessly from forest to city settings, hacking and slashing anyone unlucky enough to get in his way.

A series of photos allegedly portraying Blockbuster UK's upcoming videogame line-up reveals 25 Wii U titles on the way. Many confirm what we already knew, such as Pikmin and New Super Mario Brothers Mii, several are ports of titles that will already be out for other systems such as Batman: Arkham City and Darksiders 2, while others are potentially new surprises like Zombie (probably a placeholder title, but I'm hoping for an adaptation of Lucio Fulci's cult film [NSFW] with awkward shark fighting action). Perhaps most intriguing, if real, is "Splinter Cell 6." A sixth Splinter Cell game has yet to be announced, so one wonders if Ubisoft could be about to reveal a new multiplatform title at E3, if the series could become a Wii U exclusive, or if its simply an enhanced edition or collection of previous Splinter Cell games. It sounds promising though, as Nintendo's otherwise anemic line-up suffers from an Ironside deficiency.

Standing up for your family is a story tactic not uncommon to video games. We've seen it multiple times in recent years; whether it Kratos avenging the death of his wife and daughter, or Mario trying to save Luigi, the bond of family is something that gamers can relate to. The latest game to take up this motif is Darksiders II, although this time around, things are a little darker than usual. But, that's what happens when the brothers involved are two of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
