#DeletedScenes - Dead Phoenix

Around 2005 Capcom made a deal with Nintendo. They were supposed to make 5 exclusive titles, throwbacks to the original 8-bit Capcom/Nintendo days.

Aimed specially at hardcore gamers, the idea was to develop several old school long & difficult arcade-style games for the Nintendo Gamecube.

Thus was born the Capcom 5 project. 

Chief amongst those was Resident Evil 4, quickly followed by P.N.03, Killer7 and Viewtiful Joe

What about the 5th and final game?


Called Dead Phoenix, it was a rail shooter pretty similar to Sega's Panzer Dragoon series.

CBR:Quickies Leave It to Chance


Today, I'd like to review a little fun obscure title.
If the 90s saw comics evolve into far more grittier directions, during that era some little well crafted original titles emerged to strike back against that movement.

Leave it to chance is a very original story and a bright contrast that showed the medium could achieve so much more.

#SuperDictionary: dragon

El Dragón meets his doom... dragons!! (that's why he called himself that way?)

By the way, is it only me or does an entry for "dragon" seem a bit...err, random in an illustrated encyclopedic dictionary. (not that the Super Dictionary's attempting to teach kids anything so far...)
