There are many, many video games that were cancelled before they were finished, and some are better-known than others. Still, even now, there are never-released games emerging into the wild for the first time. A new video from gaming historian Liam Robertson represents the first public footage of an unreleased Green Lantern game from Ocean Software, which was supposed to come out for the Super Nintendo in 1994.As the lengthy video states, this Green Lantern game went through quite a few changes during development due to both personnel turnover at Ocean and various happenings in the world of DC Comics. For example, Hal Jordan was originally the protagonist of the game, but Jordan became the villain Parallax in a comic book storyline, which forced the developers to change it unexpectedly.Originally designed as a platformer with puzzle elements, the game's troubled development resulted in gameplay that mixed various genres, including R-Type style horizontal shooting, and it was eventually shelved due to those issues. The project was later picked up as an after-hours endeavor by a lone programmer and transformed into a side-scrolling shoot 'em up similar to Contra or Gunstar Heroes, and that's the version you see in the video. That version was abandoned due to the approaching release of the original PlayStation, which resulted in the advent of 3D games. We did eventually get a Green Lantern game in 2011, called Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters. The less said about it, the better.Info from Gamespot.com

With so many popular '80s entertainment franchises enjoying either revivals or an uninterrupted and long, healthy life in the decades since, one noticeably absent omission has been Gremlins. If for whatever reason you haven't seen the original 1984 film and its 1990 sequel, here's a quick recap: They were amazing comedy-horror films about the strange little titular creatures that could be owned as pets, with the caveat that you follow a bunch of rules so they don't turn into vicious monsters. If you haven't seen the first one, you can watch it on Prime Video; this Key & Peele sketch should be watched before you embark on the sequel.Looks like all that's finally about to change. Fast-forward to 2020, and there's an animated prequel series in the works and also still talk of a third sequel. Some pretty major news has just come out via Collider, who asked original Gremlins writer Chris Columbus (Home Alone, Harry Potter And The Sorcerer's Stone) what is going on with the third one--and there is reason to rejoice, as it still sounds likely."I would love to do it. I wrote a script, so there is an existing script," said Columbus. "I would still do it the same way--I would do it as tangible puppets, not CGI."Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Naughty Dog has not announced whether a PS5 version of The Last of Us Part II will be available.In the meantime, The Last of Us Part II is playable on PlayStation 5 via backwards compatibility. According to VG247, the post-apocalyptic action-adventure game makes use of the DualSense's adaptive triggers and haptic feedback, as well as the usual slate of next-gen enhancements.
