Battle of the Modern War Games: Battlefield 3 launch trailer

Posted on October 22, 2011 by John Scalzo

Have you chosen your side in the battle of the modern war games? EA and DICE will release Battlefield 3 for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 next week. To celebrate, they’ve created a launch trailer that is super intense. More intense than Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3’s launch trailer? Maybe, but that’s up to you to decide.

However, Battlefield 3 does have one major point its favor. The trailer (and game, obviously) features everyone’s favorite Secret Service agent. That’s right, Glenn Morshower of “24” plays a General that’s even been modeled to look like him.

Battle of the Modern War Games: Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 launch trailer

Posted on October 22, 2011 by John Scalzo

Is Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 “the most anticipated game in history?” Activision’s marketing department sure seems to think so. And while that makes a nice headline in a press release, it’s probably overselling the latest CoD game just a bit. Especially with the near simultaneous release of DICE’s Battlefield 3. But I’ve got to admit, the game’s launch trailer is packed with enough ominous voiceovers and explosive setpieces to make an impression on non-fans.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 will be released for the DS, PC, PS3, Wii and Xbox 360 on November 8.

SSX shreds into stores on February 14

Posted on October 22, 2011 by John Scalzo

Love is in the air. Oh, and something else is in the air too. I think it’s a snowboarder using a wingsuit to get big air during a deadly descent. Yup, SSX is back.

EA has announced that SSX will be available for the PS3 and Xbox 360 on February 14, 2012, just in time for Valentine’s Day. And because the publisher loves us all, they’ve also released a new trailer for the game dubbed “Survive It.”

Hopefully, no one will get snowed in on the wintry release date.

New Releases: Battlefield 3, Kirby’s Return to Dream Land, Pokemon Rumble Blast, More

Posted on October 22, 2011 by John Scalzo

The war begins this week as DICE’s Battlefield 3 will be published by EA on the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. The game will have two weeks by itself on store shelves before Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 returns fire on November 8. Have you chosen a side yet?

Also available this week is a Kirby game that we all thought was cancelled back in the GameCube days, Kirby’s Return to Dream Land. It’ll be available on the Wii this week, and yes, that’s Kirby wearing a Link hat and wielding a sword that looks suspiciously like the Master Sword. Nintendo will also unleash the melee-battling of Pokemon Rumble Blast on the 3DS.

A ton of smaller games will also make it onto store shelves this week including Namco Bandai’s Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Tenkaichi (PS3, Xbox 360), Sega’s The House of the Dead: Overkill – Extended Cut (PS3), Disney’s Disney Universe (PC, PS3, Wii, Xbox 360), Atlus’s The Cursed Crusade (PS3, Xbox 360) and Telltale’s Back to the Future (PS3, Wii).

Check out the full list of the rest of this week’s new releases after the break. (more…)

Posted on October 21, 2011 by Nicole Kline

Hold onto your hoods – the new Soul Calibur V trailer is about to blow you away. The newest character is none other than the master assassin from the Assassin’s Creed franchise, Ezio Auditore da Firenze. Even if you’re not a fan of the bold Italian killer, watching the artistic way in which he does away with his enemies is graceful and intense. Check out the trailer, and be sure to add January 31, 2012 to your calendar, which is when you can pick it up on PS3 or Xbox 360.

Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception launch trailer is hot, hot, hot

Posted on October 20, 2011 by Nicole Kline

It’s hard to believe it’s only been two years since Uncharted 2: Among Thieves took home every game of the year award. Now it’s starting to look like the third game in the series, Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception, is setting the stage for the very same performance. The launch trailer has been released, and I’ve got chills just listening to Drake say “You’re a pirate!” With beautiful cinematics, another fantastic score, and a storyline that is coming out piece by piece, I’m willing to say it looks like Naughty Dog has done it again. Let’s not forget the massive setpieces, like the scenes we’ve glimpsed so far in and on the boats, as well as the burning chateau.

Bring on November 1. I’m ready for it.
