The latest trailer for Eidos Montreal’s sci-fi epic shows off some nice visuals, an intentional palette choice that lends a generally downbeat tone to the action and well, some decent action. Square Enix might just have that game that clicks with a the action crowd…
No gameplay here – just a dramatic chunk of From Software packing in the guts ‘n glory (‘n mechs) by channeling a bit of Spielberg. Very cool, indeed. Nice touch at the end – just when you think you’re about to see actual gamplay, the trailer is done and you’re left hanging (and possibly wanting to run down to that game shop to slap down cash for a Kinect).
Here’s some nifty Enslaved: Odyssey to the West gear courtesy Namco Bandai’s PR department (thanks guys!). I really like the striking Monkey silhouette T a lot. The “journal” is pretty cool as well, although I can’t see spoiling that artwork with my scribbles (even if it IS the same art on each and every page). Cool free swag or no, I’m pretty psyched to play the final version of this one. Back with more later…
This EDFIA teaser packs in 38 seconds of suspense while lending itself to as few minutes of questions. If it’s created using the upcoming game’s engine, I like the elements not found in the Sandlot-developed EDF titles such as the flames coming from buildings, exploding vehicles and blowing debris. That giant metal spider is a great touch, as are the redesigned spider models and better animation from those screaming civilians. OK, I’m sold – just get me some actual gameplay footage along with full details on all the game modes and I’ll be even more giddy.
Nippon Ichi continues this week's absolute game-gasm with the announcement that Disgaea 4 is in production and should be ready for stealing hundreds upon hundreds of hours or your lives in 2011. Japanese logo to your left (“Duh!”, says Etna) and three pieces of lovely character are below the jump (that Fuka's a real cutie, isn't she?).
There's also a Japanese teaser site for that's been up for a little while, but don't expect to uncover too much about the game just yet should you hop on over for a peek.
