Binary Domain Gameplay Footage

Sega shoots out this gameplay trailer from its upcoming sci-fi action/shooter. Looking pretty cool, so far… we’ll have to see how it all comes together with some hands-on time…

Duke Nukem Forever Trailer (Broadcast Version)

Nice… I want a dozen to go, hold the cheese (as there’s plenty here to choke a horse twice). The uncensored one is going up on the other DAF blog later.

Hunted: The Demon’s Forge "Call of The Forge" Trailer

Excellent behind the scenes video featuring InXile staff talking up their upcoming co-op centric action RPG (which is a ton of fun, by the way). May 31st can’t some soon enough for me. PS3, Xbox 360 and PC, folks…

Sonic Generations Trailer

Hot on the heels of the game announcement yesterday, here’ s a peek at Sonic Generations gameplay. Set for a winter release, this PS3 and Xbox 360 game is looking to be the definitive HD Sonic experience (provided it all gels together everything its trying to do right and gets the fans happy). I’m liking what I see, that’s for sure… and Classic Sonic is back on the block!

Gallery: Earth Defense Force Insect Armageddon Bestiary


Want to know what sort of over-sized opposition you'll be facing off against this July 5th? Well, here you go – a look at some of the enemy types from D3Publisher of America's upcoming PS3 and Xbox 360 bug-blasting action game. Hmmm… Fireworks on the 4th and more fireworks on the 5th? Sounds like a plan…Read more »

Earth Defense Force Insect Armageddon Hands-On

D3Publisher of America brought along bullet hell, beast hell and bug hell to their recent NYC press event and fans of insanely deep dungeon crawlers, trippy arcade shooters and giant bug blasting will all be well-served soon enough with a few key releases. I'm working on a separate hands-on for Dream Trigger, Bangai-o and Gods Eater Burst – from this point onward… this article is all about Earth Defense Force Insect Armageddon and how much it simply rocks.

I've been waiting patiently for D3Publisher of America to drop into NYC with a build of Earth Defense Force Insect Armageddon and after playing a bit of the very solid, very fun three-player online co-op and a bit of the intense Survival Mode, I can very safely say that the game's going to be a keeper for EDF fans old and new. The missions are lengthy and challenging even on the easiest setting with bugs appearing in differently sized packs that come from multiple directions, often mixing in different types of pests that end up being more than enough to keep you on your toes. I'm getting ahead of myself here, so I'll break it down from the beginning. Read more »

Catherine Announcement Trailer (Late, But Still "Fun" to Watch)

Speaking of Atlus – I’d forgotten to run this nicely disturbing Catherine trailer from a few weeks back, so here you go – enjoy! I really can’t wait for this one, but now that it’s US-bound, I don’t need to spend too much money on the import version and bugging a few folks to assist in translating things. Awesome.

Divinity II: The Dragon Knight Saga Soundtrack BonusTrailer

Here’s a peek at the latest trailer for Atlus’ upcoming RPG Divinity II: The Dragon Knight Saga featuring some of that excellent music, which by the way, is going to be on the bonus CD included with the game (thanks Atlus!). There’s a demo hitting Xbox LIVE on March 22, and the full game will be available in stores on April 12, 2011. I’m certainly looking forward to seeing the changes and sinking way too much time into this expanded version of the original.

Brink Hands-ON: Splash Damage At The Top Of Their (& Your) Game

UK-based developer Splash Damage has every right to be chest-out, chin up proud of their upcoming shooter, Brink. The game is a total blast to play and everything from the deep character and weapons customization to the smartly paced addictiveness of the team-centered FPS gameplay is stellar stuff. I got to check the game out recently when Betheseda dropped into NYC with it (and InXile's fun RPG action/romp Hunted: The Demon's Forge) and yes, it's not only ridiculously impressive, it's designed so brilliantly that even non-FPS fans will want to pick up a controller and have a go. With its destroyed futuristic “Ark” setting and two groups pitted against each other in a race against time for what each sees as humanity's future, there's a solid sense of urgency under the trappings of what would be just another shooter du jour in less capable hands.Read more »

Earth Defense Force Insect Armgeddon Update: Pre-Order Kickoff GO!

D3Publisher of America has launched the pre-order program for its upcoming PS3 and Xbox 360 release Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon with a pretty neat deal for those who want a little more bang for their buck. GameStop and Best Buy locations will be offering those who slap down a deposit one of two different cool DLC weapons packs for the game's customizable armor sets.

July 5, 2011 is the official release date for the game and (YES!) D3 is dropping into NYC next week with EDFIA and a bunch of other upcoming titles, so expect a few hands-on reports once I finally come up for air. Three more screens and another trailer below the jump!Read more »
