Infamous 2 Gamescom Trailer

This trailer gives your first look at the re-revised look of Infamous’s star, Cole.  There is just a quick pan around him as the lighting flashes but he seems to still looks like he did on the Game Informer cover. I would expect a clearer image of Cole to be released in the near future.

Resistance 3 Announced, Teased

Playing as Nathan Hale you sometimes forget what it’s like in the Chimera infested world.  You never see the people on the streets running from or even fighting the Chimera.  This teaser gives you a look at what life is like for your average American citizen in the world of Resistance.

Since they announced Resistance 3, I’ll cover what I’d like to see in this sequel.

A) A good story.  Resistance 1′s story was simple. Players filled in the blanks and that made it better.  Resistance 2′s story was just confusing and bad.  They tried to make things way too connected and grand and it ended up like a really bad SyFy movie plot.  I want to see them focus on the people and how they are handling it rather than the bizarre Chimera origin.

B) Campaign Co-Op – I love playing campaigns with my friends.  We get to experience amazing story moments together making it more epic.  There is nothing like hearing, “Wait…Did that just happen?” over your headset.  Resistance 2′s co-op was a nice novelty worth a few paththroughs but if a friend wanted to play co-op I’m pulling out Fall of Man way before I pull out R2.

C) A new character – Spoiler: Nathan Hale is dead.  I don’t want to see him pull some magic trick that brings him back from the dead. I want to play as a normal person.  The teaser is proof they are fighting just like everyone else.  It would be even greater if you switch between characters giving you a view of the battle from many points of view.

Despite Resistance 2′s faults, the series is one of my favorite FPS and can’t wait to play the game after it’s 2011 release.

Scott Pilgrim Vs The World: The Game – Zombie Edition

Scott Pilgrim Vs The World: The Game is a downloadable beat-em-up on PSN and Xbox Arcade which I have heard is pretty good.  I’m definitely going to pick it up since A) It has 4 player co-op B) It’s Scott Pilgrimy awesomeness C) Zombies.  To get your zombie killing on just enter the code in the video and enjoy.

New LittleBigPlanet 2 Trailer

I think LittleBigPlanet was a good idea that needed some work.  I didn’t make it through half the levels that came with the game due to problems with the planes of depth glitching. My time in level creator was spent messing with physics and making simple cars because making a decent level took too much time.  However, if you hopped into the community levels you would see thousands of amazing creations showing LBP’s true potential.

LittleBigPlanet 2 is improving on the recipe making it easier to create levels with things like direct control of vehicles and objects and AI bots, but I think what has me most excited about the sequel is the gadgets featured in the trailer.  I’m not sure when a grappling hook doesn’t make anything more awesome; the creatinator, which will allow you to shoot out building materials, will allow for amazing puzzles; and the power glove will finally fix that sometimes annoying fact of the Sackboy’s limited ability to affect the environment (only being able to slightly tug on things). I can’t wait to see how creators incorporate these tools into new levels (ultimate Batman level, anyone?)

The Bad Guys Win: Full DC Universe Online Trailer

I posted the Teaser for the DC Universe MMO on Thursday and now we have the full trailer for the DC Universe.  I always enjoy seeing the heroes get the butt’s kicked, since they are winning all the time, and the potential future is very interesting.  I’m curious if the Return of Brianiac will occur right away or will be a major event down the line. Either way, this trailer definitely has me interested in checking out the game.

Sony’s New PSP Spokesman

We all know Kevin Butler is the best idea Sony’s marketing has come up for the PS3.  Now they are hoping to bring that level of awesomeness to the PSP with Marcus. The younger spokesman tries to direct younger gamers away from phone games to PSP games. It is a lot better than anything Sony has tried to boost sales in the past and the kid plays off Kevin Butler really well; but I really doubt it will do much for saving the failure of the PSP Go.  Hit the jump for the full ad.

Epic: Solid Snake vs Monsters

If you haven’t heard about all the product placement in Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, you can get Mountain Dew gear for Solid Snake but the less retarded (and more epic) addition is being able to take Snake to an island filled with creatures from the Monster Hunter games.  While I’ve only played a bit of latest Monster Hunter, the prospect of taking a gun to these beasts is exciting.  It is a weird cross marketing ploy, but you can’t deny how amazing the battle from the video looks.
