Gaming is serious business, and Ubisoft is dishing out 10 million dollars to make sure that you are well aware of their holiday line up, which includes Far Cry 2, Shaun White Snowboarding, and the new Prince of Persia.

The advertising extravaganza kicks off tonight, at 10pm, during the season premiere of South Park on Comedy Central, as commercials for Far Cry 2 and Prince of Persia mix it up with Cartman and the boys. Snowboarder Shaun White gets his day in the South Park sun when episode two hits next week.

Fans of the popular show Family Guy and the Tom Brady-less NFL will get their fair share of Ubisoft big budget advertising love as well. Let’s hope the commercials are entertaining, because it seems we will be seeing a lot of them.

I got some hands-on time with Hector and the MK vs DC game at E3 this year, and while I was impressed with the amount of blood they worked into the game, the Fatalities and Brutalities demonstrated at that point were a little on the lighter side.

So when I saw the Joker’s Fatality (and yes, it appears that DC Villains will be able to perform Fatalities) I almost shit my pants. If you are one of the many gamers out there who vowed they would never buy a Teen Rated Mortal Kombat game, you may want to check this clip out before you utter another word.

The clip above was zoomed in and cut out from a GameTrailers video interview (shown in full below). I opted to feature the animated gif because it highlights the Fatality, but if you want to see the full video, and check out the rest of the Joker’s moves, have at it.

Afterthought: What say you? Are you impressed by the creativity and graphic nature of the Joker’s Fatality, or is this type of thing still not good enough?

Update: The Joker’s second fatality has surfaced online. Click here to check it out.

Do you cheer when you see things blow up? Well, grab your pom poms because the killers over at the E3 Mercenaries 2 booth showed me the biggest in-game explosion I’ve ever seen. It’s the tactical nuke, and it may make you smile with awesome. Click the link for the boom.

Popping smoke to call in a tactical nuke must be an endgame ability, but World in Flames gives you a bunch of other toys to play on the way. I saw a grappling hook that enables you to sky jack helicopters from the ground and a high end sports car that zips around taking out tanks with a missile launcher strapped to its back. What ever your penchant for destruction, Mercenaries 2 looks to satisfy your inner Michael Bay.
