Blocky

Yes, yes, we know: another LEGO game. But LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes is no average block buster, as it introduces an open world setting for the very first time. You’ll be able to scale the streets of Gotham City, solving crime as your favourite DC characters. It looks pretty neat, doesn’t it? We're still not sure about the voice...

Dress up

For the record, this free new map for Gotham City Impostors doesn’t appear to have much to do with Rocksteady’s brilliant Batman: Arkham Asylum. Instead, it is simply a new location for people who think they’re Batman to shoot at people dressed as the Joker. Honestly, if you’re dressing like superheroes and it’s not fancy dress...

Payback's a... well, you know

Batman: Arkham City developer Rocksteady aims to follow up that ending later this month, when it unleashes Harley Quinn’s Revenge on the PlayStation Store. The single-player DLC – due out on 29th May – promises over two hours of gameplay featuring both the caped crusader and his inquisitive sidekick. Are you ready...

Contain your amazement

We all knew it would happen eventually, but MCV has confirmed there will be a LEGO Lord of the Rings game. New sets of toys based on Peter Jackson's movies contain promotional materials for the game. It was the same story with the reveal of LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes earlier this year. Retailer ShopTo.net published a...

Mad men

It takes a certain kind of genius to create a game as crazy as Lollipop Chainsaw, and this behind the scenes video does its best to expose that. In the trailer, Suda 51 talks a little about the game’s inspirations and his desire to create a different kind of zombie game. Writer James Gunn is also on-hand to explain some of the title’s...

Get over here

NetherRealm’s brilliant Mortal Kombat kicks, punches and murders its way onto PlayStation Vita in North America today – and to celebrate, publisher Warner Bros has released the handheld brawler's launch trailer. The footage features a 70-second montage of gameplay from the full game, and we have to admit, it’s looking like a...

Dressed to kill

We already know about the plethora of new outfits being added to the wardrobes of the male ninjas in Mortal Kombat Vita, but what of the ladies? Publisher Warner Bros has released a brand new trailer showing off the additional exclusive clobber available for Mileena and Skarlet. The former will get to don her leotard getup from...

Killer threads

Mortal Kombat Vita will not only ship with the full original game and DLC shrunken down to pocket size – it’ll also add some, ahem, exclusive kontent of its own. Extras include Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 outfits for Ermac, Noob Saibot, Rain, Reptile, Smoke, Scorpion and Sub-Zero. There’ll also be some Mortal Kombat 2 themed...

Co-Starlings

Warner Bros has released a brand new trailer introducing Juliet Starling’s zombie-slaying siblings in Lollipop Chainsaw. We'll be honest, if the footage has taught us anything, it’s that girls prefer guys when they’re just a head. Bear with us while we go and find the rickety old saw in our tools shed – we have a few, er,...

These boots are made for walkin'

Rocksteady’s teased the imminent announcement of new Batman: Arkham City DLC with an image of Harley Quinn’s boots. Content starring the sultry jester has been rumoured for weeks after trophies for the expansion leaked online. We’re always ready for more Harley Quinn. Always.

Kombat evolved

We’ve already seen a glimpse of this live-action Mortal Kombat video, but the full version is arguably the best Vita commercial we’ve seen. Not only does the 60 second short perfectly set the scene for the title’s portability, but it’s also stylish, edgy and attention grabbing. Apparently, there’s still plenty for...

Suda51 talks Lollipop Chainsaw, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and what "punk" means to his studio

There's crazy, and then there's Japanese studio Grasshopper Manufacture's particular brand of bonkers, which positively oozes from its upcoming title Lollipop Chainsaw. As the developer braces itself for the June release of its over-the-top teenage...

Give me an "L"

This might not be the greatest video in the world (it’s completely missing music for starters) but it at least provides a good indication of the type of combat variety you can expect when Grasshopper’s zany zombie brawler Lollipop Chainsaw launches on PS3 later this year. Swiftly smash the “Play” button below and you’ll be...

Fight anywhere

Considering the concept could have turned out crass, publisher Warner Bros deserves kudos for making this live-action Mortal Kombat Vita trailer seem fairly classy. The short – which features a lady dressed as Kitana posing on top of a skyscraper – is designed to highlight the portability of NetherRealm’s latest release. Admire...

Our favourite clown cosplay

We’d pay good money to spend an extra couple of hours, er, investigating Batman: Arkham City’s interpretation of Harley Quinn. As such, we’re pretty excited to learn that developer Rocksteady has more DLC on the cards. While the content has yet to be confirmed by publisher Warner Bros, trophies for the pack have...

Letting the cat out of the Baggins

FEAR developer Monolith may be working on a Hobbit title to tie-in with Peter Jackson’s upcoming film. Whistle blower Superannuation has the scoop, claiming on Twitter: As to what Monolith/Warner Bros. Games Seattle is up to now - pretty sure it is a little fantasy action RPG-lite called The Hobbit: Part One...

Bloody good

Could Lollipop Chainsaw possibly be any cooler? Not only is it borne out of the twisted mind of Killer 7’s Suda 51, but it also has Akira Yamaoka (Silent Hill) and the dude from Mindless Self Indulgence providing the soundtrack. In this brand new behind the scenes trailer you can watch the two composers talk about their inspirations...

May the force be with you

Warner Bros has attached a firm 4th May release date to the PlayStation Vita version of its PS3 smash-hit Mortal Kombat. As previously confirmed, the game will feature a variety of new content, including 150 new challenges designed around the handheld’s multiple inputs. It'll also feature all four DLC characters, in...

Better than your favourite band

Just when you thought Lollipop Chainsaw couldn’t possibly get any stupider, Warner Bros goes ahead and introduces Josey: a face-painted funkster armed with a keytar and eight-bit bombs. Josey’s just one of The Bosses of Zombie Rock, with the full set introduced in this brand new trailer. Watch it if you enjoy bad...
