House of the Dead: Overkill Extended Cut Hospital Level Trailer

That PlayStation Move will be getting a workout again as Sega brings this HD update of its Wii game to the PS3 this October. Expect some awesomely gory shooting action, plenty of "grindhouse" aesthetic and replay value galore like any good light gun game. I may have to get a second Move controller just to play this with double guns. Too bad this one isn't coming to Kinect, but then again, Xbox 360 owners have Rise of Nightmares, so I guess you could call it "even" in terms of horror-themed on-rails games, right? Of course, if Sega decides to do a Move-enabled version of RoN, that would be pretty cool as well...

The Lord of the Rings: War In The North "Power of Three" Trailer

Snowblind Studios' multiplayer-focused M-rated action/RPG hits stores on November 1, 2011 for PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. Here's a look at the latest trailer of what's looking to be a pretty brutal, thrilling trip back to Middle Earth. As a big fan of Snowblind's work, I'm hoping the game does well among LOTR fans as well as gamers into other RPGs such as Dark Souls and Skyrim. As this one ships between those two, I'm also hoping WBIE sees a few folks snap up their game as a gap-filler between those two gems.

Max Payne 3 "Pop Up" Trailer Reveals Hidden Depths...

Last week's trailer, now with important info straight from Rockstar about the game's characters, weapons gameplay and more. You know how much they love showing off what they can do, so enjoy the trailer again and groove on the neat info in this revisit.

TGS 2011: Lollipop Chainsaw US/Japanese Trailers

Yum! Two peeks at Grasshopper Manufacture's upcoming zombie slaying action game featuring a sexy cheerleader heroine. As this one's from the mind of Suda 51, it's definitely going to be out of the park nuts in a good (but crazy) way. I can't wait to get some hands-on time, so hopefully WBIE will see fit to show the game here in NYC soon...

TGS 2011: Dark Souls Full Prologue Trailer

And here you go: the complete prologue to From Soft's upcoming action/RPG guaranteed to make grown men and women weep, throw controllers and hide under the couch simultaneously. I can't wait for October 7, that's for sure.

TGS 2011: Ninja Gaiden 3 Trailer: Blood and Gore and Multiplayer Modes (?!), Oh, My...

Tecmo Koei is bringing Ryu Hayabusa back in a bigger and bloodier game this time out and of course, there's a nice split down the middle of the fan base. Granted, I'm not sure I'd like an online multiplayer mode in my Ninja Gaiden game, but it's in there. No disembowelment? No big deal for me, as the game isn't supposed to be a simulation at all. As long as it's not packing in a super-easy mode and isn't TOO much of a God of War swipe (granted, Kratos owes his very existence to games like the Ninja Gaiden trilogy), it should rock.

Max Payne 3 : First Official Trailer

March 2012, PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. Rockstar is bringing Remedy's rogue cop back as an older, even more more modern noir anti-hero in a decidedly different game. It's definitely going to be a wild ride for sure, especially since Max is clearly not the man he used to be. That makes this one even more intriguing to me on a number of levels. Now, it'll be the wait for some hands-on time with an in progress build to see what's what...

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Gameplay Videos: 20+ Minutes Of Amazing

If you're still curious as to why Skyrim will be the game many people (including yours truly) will be buried in for quite some time, here are three videos that show off the game's awesomeness quite well. Bethsoft finally posted these E3 videos a few days back (and yes, the build was playable at PAX in Seattle), but as usual, I'm catching up a bit late. In a weird way, I'm almost scared of how huge the game will be, but I'm not a total dope, folks. This one's going to take a while to explore every nook and cranny, but that's what I do, so I can't wait...

Dark Souls Prologue Video (Part III)

Can you feel that chill in the air? That's a combination of fall coming and Dark Souls about to drop into your hot little hands this October. Of course, that cold spine and goose flesh you have will soon be poked full of trap holes and roasted to a crisp by a dragon as big as a house, but at least you'll go down fighting and perhaps take a few beasties with you in the process. Ah... life is good... until you lose it to an armored boar's very pointy tusks...

Rise of Nightmares Now Available (Get Ready To Beat Down Creepy Stuff, Kinect-Style!)

Looks as if the Kinect isn't all about dancing games, fake fuzzy petting zoo action, exercise simulations or jumping around and trying not to get a heart attack in a family-friendly smash hit*. Sega has shipped its creepy horror game to stores and while the reviews are mixed, it might do well enough among Kinect owners craving something a bit more gory than your average game in the growing library. Here are three trailers Sega has released over the past month or so to promote the game - enjoy!

*(Yeah, yeah, I know all about the Gunsmith feature in Ghost Recon: Future Soldier, Crytek's hack & slasher, Steel Battalion and a bunch of other 2012 titles. But none of these really count until the games actually ship...)

God of War: Origins Looks AMAZING on the "Big" Screen

Between the gorgeous upscaling and the amazing use of 3D, both GOW games look like first-gen PS3 titles and REALLY solid ones at that. Even if you've played these on the PSP, this collection is well worth the money because it's so well produced and hell, you even get a great bunch of bonus content that seals the deal. If you're new to Kratos' uber-violent ways, this collection, plus God of War Collection PLUS God of War 3 should get you up to speed. It's too bad SCEA didn't see fit to include the cellphone game from a few years back, as it was pretty darn impressive back then in all its 2D goodness...

Dark Souls Prologue Video (Part II)

Lovely. Here's the second part from FromSoftware's soon to be Game of the Year contender. October 11 is rushing up like a gust of hot wind from hell so be prepared for many hours of struggling to survive, poring over a wiki for help and more whining than a busload of kids on the way to school after a lazy summer. This game is going to blow minds and bust controllers.
