• Turns out ol' Agent 47 has more than three-piece suits in his closet. I normally wouldn't post something as simple as a bonus outfits trailer, but Hitman: Absolution says you'll use these disguises to hide in plain sight and help achieve your assassinations, so that's fun. I really, really hope the squirrel suit is for when you have to go undercover in a furry convention.
• If you'd forgotten about Platinum Games' free online brawler Anarchy Reigns, it'll be out in North America on January 8th. Here's a trailer.
• WARNING: If you are any kind of a Classics nerd, DO NOT WATCH this trailer for the 2-D platform game Apotheon without taking your pants off first, because otherwise IT WILL BLOW THEM RIGHT OFF YOU. I still can't find my jeans; they may have actually disintegrated. Infinite thanks to SlyDante for the tips!

Um, that is Arotheon, not Apotheon. The Greek "Rho" looks like an English "P"
It would be a "P" if it were Apotheon.
Is it just me or is Apotheon slightly reminiscent of the gameplay in Zelda 2 for the NES? I'm excited to give it a shot.
1. What the-IT'S HIM!! IT'S THE BALD GUY WITH THE BARCODE TATTOO! RIGHT THERE! WAKE UP, MORONS!! Still getting the game despite of the glaring fallacy, though.
2. Hey, this looks pretty fun! I might just-ONLINE?! FUCK YOU!! I'M NOT ABOUT TO HAVE MY MAMA INSULTED BY A SIXTEEN YEAR OLD WHOSE BALLS HAVE YET TO DROP! EAT A DICK, SEGA!3. Looks okay.
@NeoRickicker Actually, Anarchy Reigns is not online-only, & is quite obviously single-player as well...And it isn't free, it's $29.99. Either Rob was just too excited, or REALLY wanted to make a trifecta. ^^;
@slydante Ah okay. Well in that case, I'll be sure to pick this up as well when it premieres. I'd like my bloody disgusting action game with less teabagging, thank you very much. XD

Apotheon looks amazing. I feel I owe it to my Greek heritage to pick it up. Plus it just looks stunning. I've wondered why no one's aped styles like that more in comics or games. I know Rock of Ages did a bit, using different eras and regions too.
Also.. I keep meaning to check out Hitman, but I keep hearing that some games are good and some are crap and I dunno which ones are which. Nor how this one might turn out.

As I am a classics nerd, il will point that the title reads LROTAIEOP in Greek.
Also, DAMN !
Frankly, as long as I can kill people with a gavel while wearing the judge costume (preferably while shouting "I AM DA LAW"), I'm good.
Eh, Rob, I think in your excitement you may have made goof with Anarchy Reigns...It's $29.99 for Xbox 360 & PS3, not free (unless they have some PlayStation Plus deal going on, which would be awesome). I'll just chalk that one up to being too damn excited over another kickass Platinum Games title.
Also, just be glad Apotheon only got your jeans, Rob. The cat came in here while I was watching the video, & the sheer gorgeousness was too much for it to handle. It's been running in a circle & doing backflips for the past 14 hours now, poor thing. Also, while it turns out my dies did not explode as predicted, my glasses are now permanently fused to my head. The game looks f***ing awesome, I guess is what I'm trying to say.

Rob, if you really want to go to a furry convention you don't have to live vicariously through video game characters, just do it. You might even meet the object of your furry obsession - Aurora Spenser.

@Gallen_Dugall Damn it Gallen_Dugall. I had to lookup Aurora Spencer. You know, I can't unlearn what I learned! Now if you will excuse me, I have to fill up the bathtub with water and see if I can find a razor blade.

@Junkyard22 @Someguy @DrAbraxas Nope - I recall it was a minor character in Jurassic Park, however the Laura Croft one will work as well.
Also I see Rob as Moose Baby

Apotheon looks like Greek black figure pottery come to life, heavily stylized of course, but impressive.
