SoS writes: Hype is nothing new to the game industry, especially when its centered around something so noticeable as art style. But for every Donkey Kong Country there is a Clay Fighter. Every Viewtiful Joe has its Killer 7. Remember when people were talking about Ryse: Son of Rome? Seems so long ago, but it did happen. Yeah, occasionally we get the dud, but it doesnt seem to really matter. Like birds and shiny objects, we cant resist the sparkle. After all, its hard to see past the glitz when all you get is a highlight reel. Keeping that in mind, both Unravel and Yoshis Woolly World would seem to have a bit more to prove.

The Evolution Championship Series, or EVO for short, takes place every year in Las Vegas as players compete in a variety of fighting games. EVO 2015 officially started today, which means fans will get to watch tournaments in Ultra Street Fighter IV, Super Smash Bros. Wii U, Mortal Kombat X, and others. The full lineup includes: Ultra Street Fighter 4 Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Super Smash Bros. for Wii U Super Smash Bros. Melee Guilty Gear Xrd Sign Killer Instinct Mortal Kombat X Persona 4 Arena Ultimax Tekken 7
Preliminary matches take place today, but the competition heats up over the weekend. I found that out last year when I watched EVO for the first time and found myself enjoying it despite my general ignorance when it comes to fighting games. I played Street Fighter II when I was a kid and I've enjoyed the last two Mortal Kombat games, but that's about it.

Task Force X is the Suicide Squad

DC's highly-anticipated take on the super-villains known as the Suicide Squad bows in 2016. Under the moniker Task Force X, the squad is a government-sanctioned group executing dangerous missions from a base in Belle Reve Prison. David Ayer (Training Day, End of Watch) will write and direct the summer blockbuster, which promises to be one of the darkest comic book films ever. (Photo: Twitter/@DavidAyerMovies)

The Joker is Back

Jared Leto (Dallas Buyers Club) will follow in the footsteps of Cesar Romero, Jack Nicholson and Heath Ledger to play the iconic character. Leto, who practiced method acting for the role, gave each cast member a gift from the Joker. Margot Robbie kept the live rat that was gifted to her because, “if Harley got something from Joker, she’d probably cherish it.” In the comics, the Clown Prince of Crime is not a member of the Suicide Squad.

Will Smith Plays The Sharpshooter Deadshot

Will Smith, who rarely plays a bad guy, will fill the role of Floyd Lawton, a.k.a. Deadshot. In the comic books, Deadshot is a man looking to die a spectacular death, but the trailer hints that Lawton is cooperating for his daughter's sake. (Photo: DC Entertainment)

Harley Quinn Makes Her Big-Screen Debut

Margot Robbie (The Wolf of Wall Street) will deliver the first live-action performance of Harley Quinn. Quinn is a psychiatrist who falls in love with the Joker. The trailer hints that Mr. J may force Quinn to break bad. (Photo: DC Entertainment)

The Caped Crusader Returns

Of course, if Joker is involved, then Batman has to be close behind. In the Comic-Con trailer, Batman is seen jumping on top of the Joker's metallic Lamborghini. (Photo: DC Entertainment)

Amanda Waller Oversees Task Force X

Viola Davis (The Help) will play high-ranking government official Amanda Waller, who supervises Task Force X. Davis described Waller as someone “ready to pick up a gun and shoot anyone at will.” Just what you want from your fearless leader. (Photo: DC Entertainment)

Cara Delevingne Gets Enchanted

Supermodel Cara Delevingne (Paper Towns) will portray June Moone in the comic-book adaption. In the trailer, Moone is exploring a cave that might be filled with evil. One shot in the sneak peek shows Moone struggling with her transformation into Enchantress. (Photo: DC Entertainment)

Killer Croc Looks Terrifying

Waylon Jones, known as Killer Croc in DC's comics, will be played by Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (Lost). In the teaser trailer, Croc looks to be more human than reptile, which is different from how he's portrayed in the comic books. (Photo: DC Entertainment)

A Boomerang is Not a Toy

Jai Courtney, who was up for the role of Deadshot, will play Australian badass Captain Boomerang. In the comics, George "Digger' Harkness uses his altered boomerang as a deadly weapon. (Photo: DC Entertainment)

Rick Flag Leads Task Force X

Tom Hardy (Bane from The Dark Knight Rises) was originally cast as Rick Flag in Suicide Squad, but a scheduling conflict opened up the role for Joel Kinnaman (Robocop). Details about his character as scarce, but the comics depict Flag as the reluctant leader of Task Force X.
