Excellent New Walmart Commercial Features Slimer, the Ecto-1 and Other Nostalgic Treats!
The Super Bowl isn’t until next month, but Walmart‘s latest commercial feels like the sort of ad you’d only see on Super Bowl Sunday. It’s for their new “Grocery Pickup” service, which allows you to order groceries online and pick them up at your local Walmart. Specifically, the groceries are delivered to you in the parking lot, so you don’t even have to leave the car!
“No matter what you drive,” the service’s tagline proclaims, Walmart will take care of you. Yes, even if you drive an iconic pop culture car like the Ecto-1 or the DeLorean!
A whole bunch of famous vehicles make appearances in Walmart’s fun commercial for the pickup service, including the Jurassic Park jeep and the Mystery Machine.
And yes, Slimer features prominently in the commercial!

‘Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee Remastered’ Announced for Consoles and Steam [Trailer]
Atari is reaching back for fans of the classic GameCube and Xbox fighter Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee with a remastered edition that’s coming November 3 to PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and the Nintendo Switch 2. The PS5 and Switch 2 will also be receiving physical versions that you can pre-order now.
“There is a real sense of responsibility that comes with working on Godzilla, especially with a fan-favorite title like Destroy All Monsters Melee,” explains Atari chief creative officer Mike Mika. “It is only natural that Atari, as the original publisher in 2002, would partner with Pipeworks, the original developer and kaiju experts to bring their creation back to center stage—bigger, better and more destructive than ever.”
The ultimate kaiju arena brawler is back, completely remastered. From Atari and original developer, Pipeworks, Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee Remastered updates the 2002 fighter with enhanced visuals and quality of life improvements. Choose from one of twelve monsters, and battle it out with a range of brutal attacks through 8 locations, each with day and night variations. Battle through real-world cities, Monster Island, and the alien Mothership. Face off against your friends in local co-op or new online multiplayer.
Along with the updated visuals, Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee Remastered also features gameplay updates, as well as an improved unlock system, so you can unlock monsters, locations, and gallery items in any order you choose.
