For those of you that played and completed Ratchet and Clank: Quest for Booty, you probably remember the sly message after the credits, saying “The Quest Continues Fall 2009.” Insomniac Games made good on their promise, announcing Ratchet and Clank: A Crack In Time, the last of the PS3 trilogy, at GDC this past week. At the time, all we received was a short description, a title, and a logo. As of now, we haven’t even seen any gameplay for it- but we do have this brand new teaser trailer, courtesy of GameTrailers.

The trailer, as you see above, has a mysterious voiceover explaining the concept of time, and the people that seek to control it, one of them probably being Dr. Nefarious from Quest for Booty. As you near the end of the monologue, a Lombax is revealed as the mysterious voice, which probably hints to their possibly pivotal part of A Crack in Time. This trailer also gives an official time frame for the game, so you can look forward to it hitting the Playstation Network in fall of this year.

Tonight was the Spike TV VGAs, and though the show pretty much tanked as usual, I have to say that some of the footage shown during the show piqued my interest a lot.

If you didn’t see the trailers that were shown during the VGAs, you can catch every one of them after the jump, and you can even see the opening skit from the VGAs, of Jack Black having sex with various consoles above. Disturbing. Read more…

GameInformer has finally confirmed the long-awaited sequel to Naughty Dog’s debut PlayStation 3 game, Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune. As you might be able to tell, the new game, entitled Uncharted 2:Among Thieves, will feature a radically different setting- snow. This time, Drake is chasing the treasure of 13th century explorer Marco Polo, and the game will feature a “free-climbing” mechanic and a stealth system. Hit the jump for the first trailer.

Announced at Nintendo’s lackluster E3 conference and remembered as that game that was somehow related to the internet’s most famous soccer mom breaking her wrist, Shaun White Snowboarding is a snowboarding game sponsored by pro boarder Shaun White. It utilizes the Wii Fit’s gyration/motion-sensing technology to make you feel like you’re actually jumping up and down on a $90 box thing jumping off of the Alps on a snowboard. Well, in the Wii version, that is.

Not being one to show the least visually-appealing version, today Ubisoft released the first trailer and screenshots for the Playstation 3/Xbox 360 versions of the game, which you can see in the gallery after the jump. Read more…

Rockstar may break with their tradition of three trailers before the release of a Grand Theft Auto game that began during the GT3 era. This is either to symbolise the fourth entrance in the series, or to fill the gash that has opened since it was delayed. Read more…

As we previously reported, Xbox Live has not been having a good time, what with all the disconnects and general wonkiness. All this was meant to be fixed by the end of the weekend. Read more…

Odd, and entirely true; Square Enix put a trailer for the new installment of their much-loved series online – and then tried to prevent fans from getting to it. Read more…

It’s time for this year’s Jump Festa, an annual exposition put on by Weekly Shonen Jump publisher Shueisha. Though anime and manga are the general focus of the event, video games are welcome too, and Square-Enix is back for their traditional showing. The problem? The public’s getting jacked again as their most impressive wares are still only being displayed in a “closed theatre.” What gives S-E? Read more…
