Earth Defense Force Insect Armageddon Teaser Trailer

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.

Goldeneye 007 "Reimagining" Trailer

Yet another excellent look at what just may be one of the best Wii titles of 2009 as well as one of the best game remakes to date. Yep, this one’s going to be quite a blast in single AND multiplayer.

TRON: Evolution PAX Gameplay Video

Excellent gameplay footage from Propaganda’s upcoming TRON: Evolution showing off the parkour-inspired navigation and capoeira-influenced combat along with some great light cycle sequences. This one is looking like it’ll be quite a lot of fun to dive into and play.

New Blood Stone 007 Trailer

More Blood Stone 007 trailer coolness here – it’s really looking more and more like an actual Bond film each time. Love the return of the classic silver Aston Martin DB5, the big set pieces and massive Ken Adam-like “sets” where some of the dynamic action sequences take place. November can’t come soon enough…

Power Gig: Rise of the Six String "Volcano Drop" Trailer Promo, Well… Rocks!

Seven45 Studios rather awesomely answers the musical question “Now just what the hell do we DO with all those old guitar controllers?” in this, er…, hot trailer. Power Gig: Rise of the Six String is set to hit retail for the PS3 and Xbox 360 next month. Real or fantastically crafted Internet hoax, the video has sort of cooked up a minor tempest of controversy among some YouTube viewers. Poke around here tomorrow for a gallery and info on the soon to be released PS3/Xbox 360 music game (as well its real guitar controller)…

Disney Epic Mickey – Dark Beauty Castle Preview

It’s certainly dark and truly beautiful (in a nicely twisted manner), that’s for sure. Each new teaser makes me want to get my hands on the game all the quicker. Game of the Year on the Wii? I’d say it’s absolutely in the running…

Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions Launch Trailer

Does this game look Amazing or what? Spectacular, I might add. Could this be the Ultimate Spider-Man game? Have you gotten tired of the the too darn obvious Spidey-related title puns in this post? OK, I'll shut up now – The game still looks Fantastic, though (oops, wrong franchise!)

O-Games’ Superstars V8 Racing Headed To PS3 As PSN-Only Download


“The breadth, depth and quality of Superstars V8 Racing make it one of the best racing games available on PlayStation Network,” said Greg Lanz, general manager of O-Games, Inc. “Our original plan was to release this game at retail, but after considering all the options, we decided to release it exclusively through PlayStation Network. Superstars V8 Racing delivers a first-class multiplayer race experience with world-renowned cars that will thrive with this audience. In addition, O-Games can sell Superstars V8 Racing for a lower price since we do not have to pay the costs to manufacture, package, and ship the product to retail. The bottom line? Gamers can now own a $40 game for half the price they would pay in-store.”

Translation: How can you tell the recession is still going strong? Well, one area where publishers are cutting costs is in the actual production of games. Even for what would be considered a great deal at $40, it costs a lot to get a boxed game to retail. Allowing that same title to be downloaded makes it easier for gamers to get a new release with a credit card and a few button presses.

Gallery: Portal 2


Hah! Game delays don't bother me at all, folks. In the case of Portal 2, it just means more time for Valve to make an even better game across every platform (so there!). Besides, it also gives me a good chance to actually add a nice all-in-one gallery to the site that features the E3 and more recent Gamescom screens, the brief tease-filled trailer and the hilariously unsubtle Infographics signage (each of which absolutely begs to be clicked on and read rather thoroughly).

So what are you waiting for? (click below)*
