The story of the Halo games has been minimal at best but that doesn’t keep Microsoft’s marketing team from trying to get people to care about the characters and setting of Halo: Reach.  The “Deliver Hope” and “Birth of a Spartan” videos are pretty visually interesting, but the “Day Before” video doesn’t really make care about Reach in the slightest.

I think this is one of the best video game commercial I’ve ever seen, definitely the best one for a Wii Game.  If you don’t understand what is going on in it, you might want to check this video out.

I love co-op but I’ve never seen it done with a puzzle game.  It would require both people to think alike or atleast have very good communication.

A year ago, I would have been pissed off at the mere idea of an Avengers cartoon on Disney XD but after watching the truly remarkable Spectacular Spider-man I actually have hope for The Avengers cartoon.  After all, the network responsible for Phineas and Ferb got to know what they are doing.

I would love a poster of this.

Very combat heavy.

I haven’t played a Metroid game since the original and didn’t even beat that.  This video helps explain what limited knowledge I need to understand the upcoming Metroid: Other M so I will understand what I’m doing when I’m playing the most badass manly man, Samus Aran. Wait….she is a girl? Oh really?

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.

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.
