I’ve watched the new God of War III trailer that Sony unveiled last night half a dozen times now. It’s downright impressive, and, according to the official PlayStation Blog, 100% comprised of actual gameplay (no pre-rendered CGI disclaimer required).
Near the end of the trailer, while watching Kratos mount the arm of a screen-filling …
If you’ve already had your fill of “Boom Boom Pow”, you might want to wait a while to cue up Riddim Ribbon on your iPhone. In this officially endorsed Black Eyed Peas game, you try to keep a rolling marble on a narrow track in order to preserve the ill and dope (Ribbon’s words, not mine) beats of the song. The remixes of the …
Ubisoft is heading back into the battlefield this holiday season with Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Future Soldier. It’s essentially a sequel to the Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter games, which made modern warfare cool before Call of Duty: Modern Warfare did, and it’s about time. The first two GRAW games (the image above is from GRAW2) …
Electronic Arts just wrapped up their fiscal 3Q 2010 earnings conference call. Quite a few games were mentioned during the call and within the accompanying press release, some that were previously announced through other channels and some that weren’t. Somewhat troubling for EA is that other than Crysis 2 and the new mixed martial arts …
Two dates that are keeping diehard baseball fans like me warm this winter: February 18 and March 2. The first date is when pitchers and catchers show up in Arizona and Florida for the start of spring training. The second is when MLB 10: The Show goes on sale. Sony’s San Diego Studio does a phenomenal job producing this baseball sim …
Bethesda released the first teaser trailer for the next Fallout game today. They’ve previously said that Fallout: New Vegas is not a direct sequel to one of the standout hits of 2008, Fallout 3. Really? From the looks of the trailer, you can be reasonably sure that FNV is at least going to offer a very similar experience. …
2K Games debuted a creepy and fabulous 3-minute trailer for BioShock 2 last night during Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. In case you missed it, here’s an encore presentation. Though it would’ve been nice to see some of the new plasmid powers in action (the ones you see—Winter Blast, Telekinesis, and Electro Bolt—all appeared in the …
The trailer for Vanquish, a new shooter from famed game designer Shinji Mikami (Resident Evil series), debuted last night on GameTrailers TV. It’s definitely a must-see. There’s zero chance the actual gameplay will look this amazing in the final product but the concept (guy in Master Chief-style battle armor wards off what looks like …
Some day you’ll be able to play DC Universe Online on the PC and PlayStation 3. This, along with a few other scraps of random screenshots and information, is all anyone knows about the massively multiplayer online game. Video footage of actual gameplay is scarcer than gold Kryptonite. The trickle of information reached new levels of …
This morning EA’s DICE studio released a Xbox 260 demo of Battlefield: Bad Company 2, which is sure to make first-person shooter connoisseurs very, very happy. It doesn’t offer much–you’ll only get to play the online multiplayer map called Port Valdez–but it’s enough to give you a sense of just how much havoc you’ll be able to cause …
WOW.

This post was supposed to be about MAG, the ambitiously-huge 256-player first-person shooter that came out today. But after watching the commercial for it, I realized I first needed to give props to the sardonic genius known as Kevin Butler. Generally, he’s the spokesperson you see in all of the PlayStation 3 commercials. Specifically, …
