Will Beta be less buggy?: Alpha Protocol Trailer

I’m hoping the title is a misnomer, given Obsidian’s past form (which honestly gives Troika a run for their money!), you can’t blame me for being apprehensive. Regardless, Alpha Protocol is looking good – Bourne really rejigged the spy genre (hence why they copied the style for the Craig-powered Bond films) and this looks too […]

Gorbachev, Tits and Aliens: Stalin vs. Martians Music Vid

Games that wear both their pretensions and sense of humour on their sleeves are always welcome in my book and none does it more-so than Stalin vs. Martians (or: what really happened on the eastern front during the Second World War). To celebrate the games near-release, the developers have collaborated with Russian metal band ANJ […]

Burnout × Red Faction ÷ NFS: Most Wanted?: Split/Second debut

Kudos to RPS for this one. Disney have stepped into the arcade racer fight with Split/Second, a racing game that differentiates itself from the crowd by offering various methods of defeating your opponents by bringing the world down on them, literally. Knocking chunks off freeway overpasses, blowing out storm drains and dropping girders from cranes […]

Carmageddon & Burnout, sitting in a tree – Armageddon Riders trailer

It’s been a while since we’ve had a Carmageddon game (a fact that is due to continue, as the last anyone heard about the series was when SCI canned #4 a few years ago). Leave it too the eastern european devs to take it in hand and make their own guarenteed crazy amalgamation of everyone’s […]

“Are you man enough to fight with me?” – SF4 Japanese Intro released

Everyone remembers the Street Fighter 2 intro… Basically, it was two average joes have a boxing match in the middle of the street before the view pans up a massive skyscraper, revealing the Street Fighter logo.  It was a ordinary and benign introduction to the absurdity that existed under the hood, what with the rubber […]

Prototype NYCC footage

Prototype is finally nearing completion, what with its June release date refreshingly looming yet not too far off. It went quiet half-way through development and everyone thought it had been a casualty of the Actizzard merger, but its still going strong at Radical Games (not to be confused with Free Radical, the UK developer saved […]

The Evolution of F.E.A.R.

Mere days before its release, Monolith have released a trailer which charts the evolution of both the game engine and the plotline of the F.E.A.R. series (as per usual, completely ignoring the add-on packs). Find it, along with a healthy dose of scares, after the break…

Holy Good Looking Trailers: Arkham Asylum ‘Breakout’ Trailer

Everyone has seen at least one Batman film – whether it’s one of the recent cinematic masterpieces by Chris Nolan, the malkavian eccentricity of Tim Burton’s efforts, the 60’s kitsch of the original movie or that shit that Joel Schumacher churned out. Whilst all the focus has often been on these celluloid adaptions (and too […]

Those lovable scamps at GameTrailers have the world exclusive debut trailer for the game of the film, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, the celluloid prequel to the much loved X-Men films (well, apart from The Last Stand – they should have waited on Singer for that one). There’s no actual gameplay footage in the trailer, just a […]
