Scooby Doo and the Spooky Swamp sneaks onto the Wii and DS
|
|
Zoinks! There's a new Scooby Doo game coming to the Wii and DS!
Scooby Doo and the Spooky Swamp follows the gang as they try to uncover the mystery behind a spooky swamp girl (funnily enough) and her strange brew. To help solve this mystery, it's up to you, to search the swamp - and other spooky locales, like an alpine village and a desert ghost town - to find clues, defeat enemies and solve puzzles.
For the first time in a Scooby Doo game, you can play as any of the Mystery Inc. crew - be it Daphne, Fred, Velma, Shaggy or even Scooby Doo himself (thankfully there's no Scrappy Doo). Collecting the Scooby Snacks hidden throughout the game work as a currency, letting you buy accessories and new outfits to personalise your favourite Scooby Doo characters.
And before you can say 'Scooby Dooby Doo, where are you?', you can have a friend jump in to help you search for clues, in the brand new drop-in/drop-out co-op, simply by pressing the plus button on the Wii Remote.
Well, gang, I guess this wraps up that mystery. Scooby Doo and the Spooky Swamp is due out later this month, but we're not exactly sure when. We'll be keeping an eye out for more clues, so don't forget to check back soon for more info.

Batman And Scooby-Doo... Together Again!
|
|
How can the best Batman TV show ever become even better? By bringing in Scooby-Doo to guest-star.
Yes, Cartoon Network's wonderful Batman: The Brave and The Bold - which, if you haven't seen it and like smiling, is highly recommended - has confirmed that the Mystery Machine's most famous passenger will be re-teaming with the Dark Knight as part if an upcoming episode entitled "Bat-Mite Presents: Batman's Strangest Cases!," alongside an unnamed guest-star playing themselves, a la old episodes of Scooby Doo.
The Batman/Scooby team isn't anything new; Batman guest-starred in more than one episode of the 1970s series The New Scooby Doo Movies, alongside Robin and villains like the Joker and the Penguin, demonstrating the early power of corporate synergy to a still-innocent generation of children.
Although the characters haven't crossed paths much in the last thirty years, there's no better place for this reunion than Brave and the Bold, especially a Bat-Mite episode. After all, the last Bat-Mite episode proved that the show had no problem going to areas other Batman shows may fear to tread...

Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! - Complete Series Announced - Mystery Machine Packaging!
|
|
Hanna- Barbera series featuring Scooby Doo, a dog who joins Velma, Daphne, Freddie, and Shaggy on many quests to solve mysterious. Each mystery is new and unusual and involves the group stopping someone from wreaking certain havoc on the world. Scooby-Doo was a large, loveable but cowardly Great Dane who hung around four California high school students (Fred, Velma, Daphne and Shaggy). The four teen-agers were in constant search of mysteries and adventures, driving around in a bright green van known as the Mystery Machine. Many of the group's adventures involved villians who took on supernatural disguises (ghosts and monsters); the villians' activities usually involved blackmail, theft, fraud and other forms of corruption. At the first hint of trouble, Scooby-Doo (and usually, Shaggy as well) running for cover; they usually found themselves in even deeper trouble. It usually took the promise of a Scooby snack to get Scooby (and Shaggy) to come out of hiding. The mysteries were always solved by the end of each show.
Warner Bros has just announced a complete series set for Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!. All 41 episodes will be available on 7 discs, with an 8th bonus disc filled with two hours of new and archival material (details to come later). The discs, which come in a plastic "Mystery Machine" van, retails for $79.95, and will be available on November 9.
