News Mad Riders Trailer Gets Dirty
Nail'd it
For all its faults, we rather enjoyed Techland’s Nail’d. The game did away with MotorStorm’s simulation aspects, opting for an off-road experience filled with massive air. And we mean massive air. Seriously, if you haven’t played the game, you can’t even comprehend how big some of the jumps in that title were. While Mad Riders...
News Uncharted: Golden Abyss Launch Trailer Climbs Online
Drake in your pocket
Up until now, our excitement for Uncharted: Golden Abyss has revolved around new hardware. Amidst the hype of OLED screens, rear touch panels and PS3-like graphics, we’d forgotten that there was an actual Uncharted game clamouring for our attention. But this trailer sends that message home. The game’s out on 22nd February...
News Take One Last Tour of the PlayStation Vita
Not long now
The PlayStation Vita unofficially launches in North America this week. We say “unofficially” because, well, even though the so-called First Edition Bundle is sanctioned by platform holder Sony, the system’s launch date will officially go down in history as February 22nd. It’s all a bit confusing, but the point is, Sony's eagerly...
News Binary Domain Takes the Fight Online
Connected chaos
We’re hopelessly excited for Binary Domain, we really are. But the online component’s pretty meaningless to us, and this trailer affirms our ambivalence. Sure the gun-play looks solid, the maps look cool and the game modes seem interesting; but is anyone really going to choose to play Binary Domain over Call of Duty or...
News Mass Effect 3 Trailer Proves FemShep Is the Only Way to Play
Sultry dialect
Mass Effect’s a good series if you play as the bog-standard bloke Shepard, but it’s even better when you open your eyes to FemShep. Lovingly named by fans of the franchise, FemShep is voiced by the wonderful Jennifer Hale, who brings new depth to the character beyond the rough and ready male alternative. Belatedly acknowledging...
News Lollipop Chainsaw Gets All Romantic
You don’t need a body to fall in love
Meet Juliet Starling and Nick Carlyle: high school darlings and prom couple royalty. Well, they were, until Nick totally got bitten by a zombie and Juliet was forced to chop off his head. Some might say it would be hard to hold onto a hot chick like Juliet without a body (chortle, chortle), but we reckon...
News Prove Your Skills with FIFA Street
Show off
While this FIFA Street trailer is supposed to highlight all of the game’s various game modes and rule-sets, we found ourselves unable to see past the vast array of tricks on display. We’ve never been to a street football match so we can’t commentate on what actually goes on, but having spent many years playing kick-about in the school...
News Battleship Trailer Teases Game of Movie of... Game?
We must go deeper
On the back of yesterday’s announcement, Activision’s offered a sneak peek at Double Helix’s upcoming Battleship movie tie-in. The game – which is based on the movie of the, erm, board game – promises to combine fist-pumping first-person action with traditional seek-and-find gameplay. This whole thing strikes us as...
News Grand Slam Tennis 2 Launch Trailer Smashes Online
Mac attack
With EA Sports' Grand Slam Tennis 2 due out on European store shelves this week, the publisher has served up an official launch trailer for the game highlighting all of its features and modes. There’s a mixture of classic and modern footage on show, in addition to a few seconds of Sharapova’s trademark screaming. Yeah, we could have...
News PS Vita's Free Augmented Reality Games Make a Splash
Dive in
Sony's uploaded a brand new video showing off two more of the PlayStation Vita’s augmented reality games. Both titles – alongside the previously demonstrated Table Football – will be available for free alongside the new handheld, and utilise the system’s various bundled marker cards. The two games on show are Fireworks and Cliff...
News SEGA Attacks with Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown Trailer
Evading throw escape!
We're just a little bit excited about Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown, due to land on PSN this summer. The latest entry in what some would call the greatest fighting game series ever, VF5FS introduces new character Jean Kujo and brings back sumo champion Taka-Arashi, not seen on a home console since Dreamcast's Virtua Fighter 3...
News Square Enix Officially Unveils Sleeping Dogs
No sign of Kane & Lynch
Following reports that spilled out of Destination PlayStation last night, Square Enix has lifted the lid on Sleeping Dogs – the project formerly known as True Crime: Hong Kong. Those of you with strong memories will recall Activision publicly cancelling the United Front Games developed open-world adventure last year, only...
News Malicious Brings Some Style to the PlayStation Network Today
Pretty colours
The very best treats are the ones that come unexpected, and Sony’s announcement that anticipated Japanese action game, Malicious, is headed to the European PlayStation Store today is certainly one of those occasions. Having launched on the Japanese PlayStation Store way back in 2010 to much acclaim, PlayStation fans have been...
News Celebrate Valentine's Day the Right Way with Gal Gun
Forever alone
If you’ve not got much planned this Valentine’s Day, then perhaps you might be tempted to check out Inti Creates’ bonkers PlayStation Move powered pheromone shooter, Gal Gun. The developer’s cheekily scheduled a demo for the perve-em-up to coincide with the most romantic day of the year, and assuming you’ve got a Japanese...
News SSX Introduces Global Events and GeoTags
Social snowboarding
If you’re in the UK, we suspect the last thing you want to hear about is snow. But put those memories spent lingering on icy train stations to the back of your mind, because SSX demands your attention. In a brand new trailer, creative director Todd Batty has introduced a couple of the title’s online modes. First up is Global...
News Epic Quest Adds Loot to Zen Pinball
+6 HP
You have to admire developer Zen Studios for its commitment to expansion. Zen Pinball has been available on the PlayStation Store for almost three years now, and it’s still playing host to some great DLC. What’s even more incredible is that with each new download, the developer’s ambitions get that little bit greater. Take the latest...
News Latest Max Payne 3 Trailer Focuses on Firepower
Scraping the barrel?
Rockstar’s multiple trailer marketing strategy has proved extremely successful for previous releases, but we can’t help but feel this latest Max Payne 3 footage – which hones in on the titular star’s “608 Bull Revolver” – is a bit, well, unnecessary. Still, we suppose it’s hard to complain about an additional 30...
News First Mortal Kombat Vita Footage Fights its Way Online
Finish him
We’ve been made to wait a while to get our first glimpse of Mortal Kombat running on the PlayStation Vita – but thankfully the results don’t disappoint. Running at a silky smooth 60 frames per second, the brawler looks largely identical to its PlayStation 3 counterpart, with big chunky character models filling out the PS Vita’s...
News Ghost Recon: Future Soldier Does Contemporary Warfare
Only the dead fight fair
Ghost Recon: Future Soldier’s not had the easiest of development cycles; the game’s been rebooted more times than we care to count. But at least it’s finally stumbled upon some kind of direction. With modern day combat all the rage on PlayStation 3, Ghost Recon: Future Soldier’s near-future setting looks both...
News Competitive Play Races into MotorStorm RC
Evolution inspired by Autolog
MotorStorm RC’s heavily publicised cross-platform compatibility might not be quite what we had in mind when the game was first announced, but the title’s still shaping up to be a delightful downloadable treat. Nothing evidences that better than this brand new trailer, which shows off the game’s Playground – a...
News Nemesis Drops By For New Resi: Raccoon City Trailer
Fear Street
We want to like Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City, we really do. The game sounds really cool. After all, we're big fans of SOCOM and enjoy the Resident Evil universe: it should be perfect. But something just seems off. Even this latest gameplay trailer — which features Resident Evil 3's Nemesis — can't get us excited. Is there...
News New Dragon's Dogma Details Revealed
Breath of fire
Interest in Dragon's Dogma is at an all time high — mainly because of the game's Resident Evil 6 demo. But Capcom's aiming to strike while the iron's hot, hoping it can convince you to pick up Dragon's Dogma on its own merits. In addition to a new trailer (embedded below) the Japanese publisher's outlined two of the game's character...
News FF XIII-2 Trailer Does Dewy Eyes and Cinematic Music
It's not the end
When it comes down to it, the launch trailer for Final Fantasy XIII-2 is exactly what you'd expect it to be. There's lots of sad faces, pretty eyes and fist-pumping music. The game looks super pretty though. Catch the footage below. The game's already out in North America and comes out tomorrow in Europe.
News Soul Calibur V Celebrates Launch Week With A Spot Of Cosplay
What better way to kick off Soul Calibur V's release week than with a spot of cosplay? It's a shame Namco Bandai didn't splash the cash on a full Voldo costume for someone to embarrass themselves in
In fact, on second thoughts: we don't want to see that. Once the gameplay kicks in though, this is a pretty exciting trailer. We hadn't been...
News EA Sports Introduces Grand Slam Tennis 2's Pro AI System
Signature acoustics
In a new trailer, Grand Slam Tennis 2's excitable producer, Thomas Singleton, has offered a birds-eye view at the upcoming sim's Pro AI system. The theory is that the game's able to capture the behaviour of its professional players — from John "you cannot be serious" McEnroe's trademark outbursts, right through to...
News Something Dragon's Dogma Related Is Set To Occur On January 31st
Announcement of an announcement
January 2012 has been something of a damp squib. Last year we were knee deep in game of the year contenders such as Mass Effect 2, LittleBigPlanet 2 and Dead Space 2. This year we delved into, erm, Zack Zero? But as February approaches, so does change. Seriously, if you haven't already pored over February and March's...
News You Can't Deny The Brilliance Of This Live-Action Gravity Rush Trailer
Apples are renowned for their sweet taste and gravitational properties
They're also the star of Sony's brand new live-action Gravity Rush commercial. Uncharted: Golden Abyss and WipEout 2048 may be the PlayStation Vita's headline releases — but we really think Gravity Rush is the star of the system's line-up. Gorgeous, original and totally unique:...
News Aliens: Colonial Marines Goes Slow-Mo In Dramatic New Cinematic
Every game gets a slow-motion trailer these days, so Gearbox's latest Aliens: Colonial Marines cinematic is not exactly going to blow your mind
But, hey, it's tastefully done — with uncomfortable music and gratuitous scenes making it all suitably "Aliens". We doubt fans of the series could have asked for anything more. The game might be...
News Mass Effect 3: Special Forces Trailer Hones In On Multiplayer Action
Bioware's better known for its dialogue wheels than rip-roaring combat, but we must admit that Mass Effect 3's multiplayer component is looking pretty solid
The developer's released a new action-packed trailer, honing in on the races and classes you'll be able to select come the game's release in March. We're still not particularly hot on the idea...
News Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus Chops Up A Tank In New PS Vita Trailer
While it's possible to own three different versions of Ninja Gaiden at this point, the upcoming Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus on PS Vita makes a case for purchasing a fourth
Publisher Tecmo Koei's released a brand new trailer of the title ahead of its launch, and it shows off all the features you'd expect from a Ninja Gaiden release: ridiculously...
News Binary Domain Cranks Up The Melodrama In Assassination Cut-Scene
A lot of the appeal of the Yakuza franchise is the manner in which it's retained its original voice-acting
(Well, aside from the game's expensive Western debut anyway.) As such, it's a little jarring watching a Nagoshi produced cut-scene with English voice actors — and let's be honest, judging by this cinematic, Binary Domain's don't appear to be...
News MLB 12 The Show Video Takes a Swing
It's out of here!
Sony promises far more robust Move features for MLB 12 The Show, and now it's released fresh video footage showing a tiny bit of what to expect. The game is certainly looking better than ever, with enhanced physics, animation and presentation bringing it up a notch on last year's already excellent MLB 11 The Show. Can it improve on...
News Doctor Who: The Eternity Clock Drops Onto PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita In March
We're not sure what we were expecting from Supermassive Games' upcoming Doctor Who video game tie-in, but it certainly wasn't a sidescroller
Still, that's exactly what appears to be on show in this first trailer for Doctor Who: The Eternity Clock. The gameplay looks a lot like Ubisoft's recent TinTin movie tie-in, if you're familiar with that. We...
News Smash 'N' Survive Kickstarts A Car Combat Revival On PlayStation 3
Car combat's not been an important genre since the original PlayStation
Back then, the wild success of the Twisted Metal franchise prompted the release of a slew of copy-cat titles on Sony's system. But in the years since, the genre's prominence has waned — almost to the point of irrelevance in the present day. Sony hopes to change that next...
News First Test Drive: Ferrari Trailer Races Online
We're still not sure if Test Drive: Ferrari is an actual video game
Don't get us wrong, this new trailer looks conclusive enough, but the build-up to the game's supposed March release has been so odd. It's only with the release of this trailer that we can confirm Slightly Mad Studios as the developer. Prior to this evening, the Shift 2 developer was...
News Grand Slam Tennis 2 Takes A Timely Trip To The Australian Open
With the Australian Open officially underway -- and Britain's hopefuls already down and out -- EA Sports has released a brand new Grand Slam Tennis 2 trailer to tie in with the event
The Rod Laver arena always makes for a tropical backdrop in tennis games, with its blue, hard court surface illuminated by floodlights and the Australian sun. See what...
News Shinobido 2: Revenge Of Zen Trailer Details Plot, Weapons And More
With games like Uncharted: Golden Abyss and Wipeout 2048 in PlayStation Vita's launch window, it's unsurprising to see Acquire's quaint ninja title, Shinobido 2: Revenge Of Zen, flutter under the radar a touch
But that's unfortunate, because, as the game's latest trailer proves, it's actually looking pretty cool. The footage hones in on all of the...
News Lollipop Chainsaw Piles On The Stupidity, Introduces Antagonist Swan
Ignore Lollipop Chainsaw's antagonist Swan's similarities to The Cure frontman Robert Smith, because it definitely ain't like heaven at San Romero High School
As previous trailers have established, Lollipop Chainsaw is a zombie game with a bubblepop twist. Could there be a more fitting bad-guy than a misunderstood high-school goth? Sure, Lollipop...
News Grand Slam Tennis 2 Demo Smashes Onto PlayStation Network
It's time to don your Puma head-band and Wilson branded socks, as the demo for Grand Slam Tennis 2 has finally lobbed its way onto the PlayStation Network
In order to celebrate the release, EA Sports has served up a brand new trailer focusing on current top-dog Novak Djokovic and fan-favourite Rafael Nadal. Catch the trailer after the jump, then go...
News Binary Domain Gets Pushed Back A Week, Scoops Up New Trailer
February is looking like an outstanding month for video games
Not only does it house the release of the PlayStation Vita — and its host of launch titles — but it also contains some seriously hot PlayStation 3 titles to boot. Binary Domain might be getting short shrift at present, but we've been ridiculously excited about the Yakuza Studio...
News Shoot Many Robots Gets Technical In New Trailer
In the video games industry, behind-the-scenes trailers are usually reserved for promotional material and scripted PR babble
But developer Demiurge has eschewed that trend for its latest Shoot Many Robots trailer, offering a peek behind the curtain at some of the game's more complex visual effects. While the different visual layers are traditionally...
News Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City Ups The Ante With Stunning CG Trailer
We don't think it would be particularly unfair to say that Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City hasn't had the best build up
Hastily announced after a slew of rumours, then brushed aside because of its spin-off nature — the game needs to catch a break. After being delayed at the end of last year, Capcom's hoping that the extra time will give its...
News GameStop's Prototype 2 Pre-Order Bonus Is Called, Erm, 'Butt Kicker'
It's hard to believe that a group of executives at Prototype 2 developer, Radical Entertainment, signed off on the game's exclusive GameStop pre-order bonus
Entitled the embarrassingly lame "Butt Kicker", the power upgrade is actually a modified version of the game's explosive human javelin Bio-Bomb ability — allowing you to, ahem, kick...
News SSX Gets Tricky In New Trailer, Piles On The Accolades
Would you like to know every single positive thing that's ever been said about EA Sports' upcoming SSX reboot? Then this trailer's totally got your back
Outside of the praise, the trailer boasts a bunch of gameplay footage from the tricked-out racer. It's taken a while, but the game's finally starting to look like it's deserving of its name. Catch...
News Crazy Levitating WipEout Scalectrix Video Is Amazing, Almost Certainly Fake
Looks like Sony's just released the viral ad of the year -- and it's only January 4th
A YouTube video uploaded by the "Japan Institute Of Science And Technology" shows a WipEout themed model car track that operates using, erm, superconductivity and magnetic fields to send two levitating model crafts sprinting around a circuit. According to...
News Syndicate's New Co-Op Trailer Reveals Enviable Character Names
If there's only one thing you take away from this debut trailer for Syndicate's co-operative mode -- which is separate from the main single-player campaign -- make sure it's the names of the characters
Sure the core gunplay looks ace, and we love the visual style of the game — but we're sold on the operative's names alone. Emma Thalos? Tihomir...
News Sonic The Hedgehog 4: Episode II Officially Announced For Japan
SEGA's kicked off the new year with a bang, officially announcing Sonic The Hedgehog 4: Episode II for Japan
The sequel to the two-dimensional noscon will arrive on PlayStation 3 in 2012. SEGA promised that the title would boast improved physics and visuals in an interview with GameSpot last week. The game's also set to host the return of Metal...
News Tekken Tag Tournament 2 Is Absolutely As Bonkers As Ever
We distinctly recall unlocking an upgrade for Paul Phoenix in Tekken 5 that attached a puppy to his hair-sprayed quiff
That was pretty weird, but totally awesome at the same time. Thankfully it looks like Tekken Tag Tournament 2's not planning on forgetting the franchise's bonkers routes. A new, low quality Japanese trailer shows Ganryu sporting a...
News DUST 514 Trailer Emerges into Clear View
Shooting for the stars
DUST 514 was briefly shown during Sony's 2011 E3 presentation and has since all but fallen off the radar. Offering up a healthy mix of FPS and MMO action that’s deeply integrated into the EVE Online servers, DUST 514 easily sets itself apart from the other shooters on the way to Vita. Like a desert nomad wandering through a...
