Nintendo’s Media Summit went down in San Fransisco yesterday and among the big titles being talked about was Super Mario Galaxy 2. We’ve already told you when it’s going to be released, but the media summit also came with a bally load of trailers and gameplay footage, which we’re very proud to bring you.
I am a huge fan of the original Super Mario Galaxy and from just seeing the trailer alone I was even more excited. I dare you to watch the trailer without grinning inanely when Yoshi pops up! Super Mario Galaxy 2 seems to have everything: iconic music, inventive levels, Yoshi and giant space dragons.
Fallout New Vegas, which was announced nearly a year ago but which we’ve received absolutely no information on since, has just been confirmed for a release this autumn.
Bethesda, being the generous folks that they are, have provided a trailer to go along with the announcement.
The new Fallout tittle is being developed by Obsidian Entertainment, who were involved with the creation first two Fallout game, a fact that is likely to please many long time fans.
Now, if you’ll excuse me… Blue Moon, you saw me standing alone, without a dream in my heart, without a love of my own…
The video game was already announced, but gamers had to wait until this weekend for a trailer to hit. In The Forgotten Sands, Ubisoft has elected to deviate from the storyline established in 2008’s Prince of Persia and is revisiting Sands of Time canon.
Not a lot is shown in the trailer, just a whole lot of sand and what appears to be the parkour style platforming the series is known for, though the graphics are not in-game. However, the trailer does give off a vibe of being a film tie-in. The Forgotten Sands is slated to hit stores at the same time as the upcoming Sands of Time movie by Mike Newell.
You can view the trailer after the cut.
Those of us who stayed until after the credits in Batman: Arkham Asylum pretty much knew this was coming. The sequel rumours started circulating once the first sales numbers hits, and Rocksteady did indeed say they were doing a sequel if the game sold well enough.
Apparently the sales were good enough because Batman: Arkham Asylum 2 was announced at the Spike VGAs on Saturday. The trailer hints at the game’s set in a small part of Gotham City, which Joker and his henchmen have taken control of. Harley Quinn also returns. No other villains were shown, but the trailer did drop some hints by referencing the Penguin, Two-Face and Black Mask. The Joker does sound like Mark Hamill, but no word on Kevin Conroy’s return just yet.
Enjoy!
Capcom has just released a new trailer for the upcoming DS game Okamiden: Chisaki Taiyou. Okamiden is the sequel to the beautiful PS2 game Okami. The trailer looks incredible, despite the downgraded visuals.
kamiden stars Chibiterasu, a celestial wolf who bears a resemblance to Amaterasu, the protagonist of Okami. The celestial brush makes a triumphant return to solve puzzles and fight enemies.
The game takes place three months after the events of Okami. Demons have returned to Nippon and it’s up to Chibiterasu to stop them. It’s speculated that Chibiterasu is Amaterasu’s son, retaining Amaterasu’s abilities, but lacks her power.
Give it a peek after the cut.
As you may recall, Adon, Cody and Guy were confirmed for Super Street Fighter IV in Famitsu recently, and now we have a video showing off the characters in all their HD, 3D glory.
Fans will no doubt be impressed with how well these characters’ moves have been translated to Street Fighter IV. As an avid Adon and Guy player myself, I’m especially impressed with what they’ve done with these two characters.
Check out the trailer for yourself, after the cut.
The Final Fantasy series may never be true to its title, but this trailer is – Square Enix has released the final Final Fantasy XIII trailer before the game’s release in Japan in less than three weeks time.
Us gamers in the west still have to wait until March 9th, 2010 to get our hands on this game, but that’s definitely a huge improvement on the almost year long wait we had to endure for past Final Fantasy games.
Hopefully this will tide you over until then. Enjoy!
Capcom is continuing their recap of the Resident Evil series with Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles, the sequel successful rail shooter The Umbrella Chronicles. The Darkside Chronicles focuses on RE2 and RE: Code Veronica.
A new trailer for Darkside Chronicles was released today showing off lots of familiar faces and monsters, as well as two new characters named Javier and Manuela. The game looks awesome and if you’re excited about this title you owe it to yourself to check out the video below.
So, a trailer for the upcoming Prince of Persia movie has just been released, and by the looks of it, it will be far more faithful to the source material than the vast majority of video game movies have been up to now.
Take a look for yourself, and be your own judge.
Square Enix has just released the seven minute trailer of Final Fantasy XIII, that was showcased at the Tokyo Game Show over the weekend.
Check it out below. It’s rather nice.

You owe it to yourself to watch this
Ubisoft tweeted earlier today that the first gameplay trailer for Assassin’s Creed had been released.
Naturally, we have it here for your viewing pleasure. The trailer shows off protagonist Ezio basically being a badass.
Norwegian developer Funcom, whom we reported on yesterday, has some more news about their upcoming MMO The Secret World. The company is currently in Seattle for Penny Arcade Expo, showing off the game behind closed doors. This is the first time the game will be seen by anyone outside of Funcom.
“We’ve taken inspiration from history books, mythologies, urban legends and pop culture, mixing it all into an exciting universe. Development began almost seven years ago, but the in-game story stretches back literally millions of years,” said creative director Ragnar Tørnquist in an interview with Norweigan newspaper Dagbladet.
Those of us who are already excited about Castlevania: Lords of Shadow will most likely be doubly excited after witnessing the new trailer revealed at gamescom this week.
Developed by mercurysteam, in association with Kojima Productions, Castlevania is shaping up to be vastly different than the old school 2D side-scrollers, with ambitions of being the first actually good 3D Castlevania game.
Some parts of the trailer is footage we’ve already seen, but others reveal more combat footage, as well as various ways protagonist Gabriel can use the combat cross. There’s still no details on whether or not Gabriel is a Belmont, but the Belmont name is mentioned in the title, by a character voiced by Jason Isaacs. Could he be the one playing Dracula? Only time will tell.
The first trailer for Command & Conquer 4 has just been released, and it appears to take place in Manchester. Yes, that Manchester, England. As in Manchester, England., home of two football (or soccer, to you Americans) teams.
From what we can tell, the city has been overrun with Tiberium, and dialogue seems to indicate the entire world has suffered a similar fate. And the Brotherhood of Nod has a proposition for the GDI.
Looks like England is in for some fun.
