See this is why I stop reading comics every 5 years or so. Both Marvel and DC come up with ridiculous things that were like "WTF? Leave something that works alone" *cough*brand new day*cough

But it wasn't strong enough to stand on its own.

Note to self: tell fiance to bring the DS when she comes up this weekend. I always seem to get the itch to want to play something and then remember that I left it at her place.
Why am I kind of excited for the new Pokemon game coming out. Slight chance I'll get a 3DS at some point since I have the original DS.

WTF? I read some stuff on it last week and was pretty intrigued. For that price...not going to happen. I would consider getting a Wifi only model but...it has that stupid stipulation. I'm not a huge fan of Apple but they handled the iPad correctly. Just let people buy the product Wifi only. My cell phone bill is enough I wouldn't even want to use a tablet like it was a cell phone; especially since free wifi is plentiful.

For that price, you may as well get a laptop. For the money that you would pay for the data plan you can get a....well you know.

Hey comic people, I was over at kotaku.com and someone asked why there hasn't been a Marvel vs DC game. I pretty much said that DC villians are better than their heroes (which can be pretty bad to me)
Joker > DC Villians > Marvel Heroes = Marvel Villians >>> DC Heroes
As you can tell I love the Joker.

I don't see that working considering how strong competitors they are. Though they did do Amalgam way back when, so anything is possible.
ETA: Also there is the fact that DC has far more godlike characters and the more reasonable ones aren't as well known or liked.

^^^^ Animate not to mention think of how much money it could cost to licence characters from both companies, especially since now Disney OWNS Marvel and how it would get divided.
For anyone looking for some ideas of storybook apps for their kids, try this article.
