Today is a great day for Mass Effect 2 news- first with the massive, packed collector’s being announced, and now, with 90 seconds of brand-new footage that signals the coming of a full trailer for the game. If the game looks anything like this footage, it’s sure to be a real contender for 2010 GOTY.

Unfortunately, “LittleBigPirates of the Carribean” isn’t the official name for the map pack, but there’s still time, Media Molecule. The things that are official, according to MediaMolecule, are the pricing, release date, and content included in the pack. Sorry, Pirates fans- as an E-rated game, there’s no rum here. What there is included however, is [...]

I wasn’t at all impressed with the 2009 VGA trailer for Activision’s True Crime. I somewhat enjoyed the previous two games in the series, but the voices, character rigidity, and somehow-superhuman movement in the trailer just didn’t impress me. A press release for the game just hit my inbox, and while I can’t say it [...]

The VGAs have pumped out a lot of content over the last few days, with loads of announcements and trailers being released. Here’s yet another, for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 the new Medal of Honor game. Obviously EA are competing for Infinity Ward’s “Modern shooter” spot, and the trailer makes this even clearer. [...]

This may be the best trailer for a videogame I’ve ever seen. Hell, it might be the best trailer I’ve ever seen. Valve are getting great at making these short films; the characters shine through even with two minutes of screen time, and it makes me want the game even more. If this isn’t the [...]

Oh October, how I despise you and all of your delicious game releases. Having already sunk my money into Brutal Legend and pining for Uncharted 2, Borderlands is down there on my list, but it’s on my list all the same. Let’s all start taking bets on whether or not I’ll buy more than I [...]

As you probably know, some of us at Ripten are big fans of The Witcher. This means that it is with great pleasure that I present to you some leaked footage of the sequel. The video is marked “internal” and obviously isn’t for public consumption, but who cares, eh? It looks bloody great. CD Projeckt [...]

It’s obviously not the full song, and to be honest it’s not likely to be the best one, but damn it, it’s Daft Punk, and it’s new. Even beside the fact that the game is looking surprisingly entertaining, DJ Hero is taunting Daft Punk fans everywhere into wanting the game- new tracks, heavy focus, even [...]

September 9th is approaching quickly, and my rush to gather $250 for The Beatles: Rock Band is becoming a lot more difficult, but I’m starting to realize that it’s going to be worth the work. Today, Harmonix added another trailer to the pre-order club site that is only accessible for people that pre-ordered the game, [...]

I want this game right now, but apparently I can’t have it until August 25th. Well screw that! Screw that right to heck!

Straight out of E3 today is yet another video for The Beatles: Rock Band, but this time with gameplay. The trailer for the game gives us a good look at some of the visual changes added to The Beatles: Rock Band, namely the psychedelic background visuals, addition of 3-part harmonies, and slight changes to the [...]

One of the surprises out of Nintendo’s conference today was the announcement of a new Pokemon Dungeon game. Not so much that the game existed, since it’s already out in Japan, rather the fact that the game would be released in the US. While I never actually played the last, er, 4 games in the [...]

Quick post right here, because I’ve got a bunch more trailers to post, but I just have to say that of all of the DS games announced at Nintendo’s E3 conference, I’m most excited for Professor Layton & The Diabolical Box. As the sequel to Prof. Layton and the Curious Village, it has a lot [...]

I’m a huge fan of the first two games in the M&L series, so you can imagine my excitement when Nintendo announced Mario & Luigi 3 in October last year. Unfortunately, the game was for Japan only, and my happiness quickly subsided- until today, when Nintendo announced Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story for the [...]

Super Mario Galaxy was one of my favorite games of 2007. It actually gave me a lot of hope for the Wii, because I knew that if all third-party developers were as good at making games for the Wii as Nintendo was, the system would thrive for a while. And while that theory didn’t stand [...]
