Fans reimagine Willy Wonka Experience Glasgow’s The Unknown in various video game settings

A Pokemon fan has reimagined the legendary birds Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres in a cartoon image resembling the black and white rubberhose cartoons of the 1930s. This early style of mainstream cartoons includes many names that are still popular today, such as Mickey Mouse. The first Pokemon anime debuted in 1997.

A Pokemon fan artist took to social media to post some artwork of the Ghost Pokemon Gastly, Haunter, and Gengar in the style of rubberhose cartoons from the 1930s, each having distinct features that are different from their normal styles. The Pokemon fan artist received compliments from other trainers for their efforts and creativity in making each Pokemon design stand out.

Back in 2022, it was announced that Uncharted writer and creative director Amy Hennig is working on a Marvel game starring both Black Panther and Captain America. Unlike most superhero titles these days, Hennig's game stood out from the rest by being set during World War 2, and its setting was shown off during a Disney showcase that same year.

The title of Marvel and Skydance New Media's upcoming World War 2-era Black Panther and Captain America game has leaked online, supposedly called Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra.

This leak is one of the first pieces of information that fans have received about the game, assuming it's accurate.

Former EA and Microsoft exec, Peter Moore, says there are «serious questions» to be asked about video game hardware and whether or not there's a future for the traditional home console system.

Denis Villeneuve’smovie adaptations of Frank Herbert’s seminal sci-fi novel, Dune, has become a cultural and commercial hit. That’s big for Team Hollywood, but I still have a hard time believing that Dune has done more for movies than it has for video games — so long as you ignore the kerfuffle over whether it influenced Star Wars.

Gamers are being inspired by the Willy Wonka fiasco that recently happened in Scotland, recreating the barren and meme-worthy experience in their favorite titles. Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Far Cry 5 have both gotten humorous renditions of the disastrous event, which drew in customers with its misleading AI-generated advertisements. The forlorn recreation of Roald Dahl’s magical world turned out to be a threadbare experience with a lone Oompa-Loompa rationing out jellybeans to children and The Unknown (a nonexistent character made up by AI) then jumping out to scare them silly.

«Explore Jonesy's whimsical chocolate factory!» says the tagline for Jonesy's Chocolate Factory Experience. Billed as appropriate for 3 years and above, and advertising fun and exploration, I used up 40GB of my precious, SSD space to install Fortnite and visit Jonesy's whimsical chocolate factory.
