OT: New Buffy merchandise

[Kirayoshi@xxxxxxxxxx]

Greetings, gang!

Found out some interesting info about some new Buffy merch coming down the pike in a few months. First off, a fair warning for something I'm sure that all of you will wish to avoid. In addition to a Buffy 2004 calendar, they're releasing a Spike calendar! That's right, twelve months of William the Skanky!

You ever get the feeling that our opinions regarding Spike are in the minority?

Oh well, on to better news; ign.com has announced a new Buffy the Vampire Slayer video game; Chaos Bleeds. Set sometime mid-season five, Buffy and crew confront a dimensional bleed that threatens to destroy the world. This third-person adventure game will be availble on X-Box, PS2 and Game Cube formats, unlike the first BtVS game which was exclusive to X-Box. In this game you can play several different characters, including Buffy, Willow, Xander, Giles and Spike, each with his/her own unique attacks.

For three very cool shots from the game, check this link; http://www.buffy.nu/article.php3?id_article=774. I liked the top one, especially because of the sidelong glance Willow is giving Buffy. But for some reason, Sid the Dummy's in this game as well! Huh?
