SYNOPSIS

Marvel Studios presents, in association with Paramount Pictures, “Marvel’s The Avengers” — the Super Hero team up of a lifetime, featuring iconic Marvel Super Heroes Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Thor, Captain America, Hawkeye and Black Widow. When an unexpected enemy emerges that threatens global safety and security, Nick Fury, Director of the international peacekeeping agency known as S.H.I.E.L.D., finds himself in need of a team to pull the world back from the brink of disaster. Spanning the globe, a daring recruitment effort begins.

Starring Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner and Tom Hiddleston, with Stellan Skarsgård and Samuel L. Jackson, and written and directed by Joss Whedon, “Marvel’s The Avengers” is based on the ever-popular Marvel comic book series “The Avengers,” first published in 1963 and a comics institution ever since. Produced by Marvel Studios’ President Kevin Feige and executive produced by Alan Fine, Stan Lee, Jon Favreau, Louis D’Esposito, Patricia Whitcher, Victoria Alonso and Jeremy Latcham, "Marvel's The Avengers" is the summer blockbuster of 2012 not to be missed - packed with action and spectacular special effects.

Modern day Dragonborn

If you play Skyrim,you definitely know that it's an amazing game,with many fans showing their love for it through mods and fan-made videos.My personal favourite so far has to be recent this video.A mix of of Skyrim,modern day life and an epic rock rendition!!!

FUS RO DAH!!!!!

Crank up to a whole new level.

Well,we all know the recent Battlefield 3 has superb graphics and great multiplayer.So great that it supports up to 64 people in a map.There's also another thing that's great.You can do lots of cool things.Such as jumping out of your jet plane,RPG the hell out of an incoming enemy jet then jumping back to your plane!!

LIKE A BOSS!!

How about sniping the other pilot mid air for a jet swap?

Again.LIKE A BOSS!!! 

If you like looking up on gaming gems/easter eggs/whatever that's cool on Youtube like me then go check out Sir Stun_gravy.He plays BF3 like a boss while always practicing to do new and cool stuff.I honestly thought that you can never do stuff like this on BF3 but this videos just changes everything.

Damn,time for me to do stuff like this!! Later!

Mass Effect 3

Mass Effect 3 is definitely a masterclass and marks a satisfying conclusion to a beloved trilogy that started way back in 2007. On March 2 2012, the game became available for preload on Origin in the case of digital purchases.
