TITLE: Dexter: The GameDEVELOPER/PUBLISHER/PLATFORMS: Icarus Studios/Marc Ecko Entertainment/iPhone
FUN FACT: Michael C. Hall, star of the Showtime series, lends his voice to the game while series writer Tim Schlattmann crafted an original storyline. Doesn’t get any more official than that.
WHY COMPLEX IS CO-SIGNING IT: Because as the first phone to provide a worthwhile gaming experience, the iPhone is awesome. We just wish there were more serious games available. We love playing Crash Bandicoot and Trism, but besides Metal Gear Solid and Assassin’s Creed, there aren’t that many mature, serious games available. And Dexter: The Game seems to be pretty serious. Based on the Emmy-award winning Showtime series about a serial killer that kills other killers (we guess two wrongs do make a right), the game puts you in the shoes of the show’s main character Dexter Morgan as he tries to solve murders just like he does in the show. If you haven’t been able to catch the show, you’ll start DVR’ing it once you play the game.

While fans eagerly await the return of Showtime’s Dexter (Season 4 debuts September 27), Complex’s sister company Marc Ecko Entertainment has developed a sick 3D iPhone/iTouch game that will serve as perfect hold-over. Dexter: The Game puts you in the shoes of part time serial killer Dexter Morgan as he analyzes bloody crime scenes for the Miami PD (his day job) and stalks his unsuspecting human prey (his night job). Even if you aren’t familiar with the series, the game features enough innovative graphics and serial killin’ to keep you entertained on your long commute. Watch the trailer below, then hit the iTunes store (HERE!) to cop the game for $5.99…

Finally, there’s a way to show off how serious you are about Halo without scaring the neighbors. And if you’re like us, you’re probably sick of wearing the same grease-stained undershirt when you go on week-long benders glued to the couch playing Halo and taking bong hits until you’re eyeballs retract into your brain. Complex’s bossman Marc Ecko has taken the dive into the gaming world with his new collection that features six Halo-inspired t-shirts.

Many comic artists have mastered the art of drawing sexy female characters, but none are quite like Paul Pope. The man behind titles like 100%, Batman: Year 100, and PulpHope: The Art Of Paul Pope was kind enough to collaborate with the Complex team on “Mirror, Mirror,” the sexy skin shoot from our June/July issue. The concept: two hot women—one illustrated, one photographed—getting intimate in a house-of-mirrors. We just posted the whole story online, so enjoy, sexually repressed nerds!

Ah, just another day in the Complex office. Earlier this year, we showed up at work, only to find founder Marc Ecko directing a too-hot-for-Complex photoshoot filled with a bevy of sexy models in various stages of nudity. Well, it turns out that Mr. Ecko was doing a shoot for Playboy, who invited him to creative direct a special feature in their upcoming issue. Jealous?
Of course, Complex’s cameras were on set, so we created an exclusive (semi-NSFW) video to give you a sneak peek at the shoot. Watch the steamy clip below…

Manga master Osamu Tezuka’s iGoogle skins
Considering how much time we waste on Google, it would be nice to have something to look at other than a blank white screen. Recently, the company unveiled their new artist themes, which apply a variety of different looks to your personalized iGoogle homepage. Artists who contributed original skins for the project include Jeff Koons, Marc Ecko, The Beastie Boys, Os Gêmeos and A Bathing Ape’s Nigo, plus over 60 others. Starting today, art from the series will also be on display on the streets of NYC’s Meatpacking District through the weekend. After the jump, watch Google’s video “trailer” hyping up the artist series.
