Sexy New LEGO Indiana Jones Gameplay

I can't friggin wait for this game to come out. Seriously. Tristan and I have actually been watching through the trilogy to prepare for the game, not the movie. LEGO Star Wars is one of the only games that the two of us played through all the way (three times, including once on the DS). I sure hope they don't tinker with the formula... and they add more multiplayer options.

World in Conflict: Soviet Assault Yulja Campaign

World in Conflict is quite an unique take on PC strategy gaming, so I'm interested to see what World in Conflict: Soviet Assault will do for the Xbox 360 and PS3 (it's also popping up on the PC). This video shows off some of the single player campaign missions from the Soviet point of view. Most of them have been added to the single player campaign included in last year's release.

Guitar Hero: Aerosmith Oozes Muppet Ugly

This trailer for Guitar Hero: Aerosmith, your one video game source for Aerosmith music, combines ugly cell animation with ugly 3D graphics to generate some of the most hideous imagery ever created for a video game. The graphics are well crafted, to be sure, but the Aerosmith models look like something out of The Dark Crystal, only without gelfling goodness. I do find myself feeling bad for drummer Joey Kramer, who apparently has no physical features worth enhancing to ugly Muppet proportions and winds up just looking like some guy on the drums. The trailer also loses points for cutting off Cheap Trick's Dream Police before the chorus, leaving me looking stupid singing along with nothing and my cats looking terribly confused.

Saints Row 2 Trailer

Wow, a trailer without any video... that's annoying. Well I guess we know a bit more about the plot and that's why people play Saints Row right? Right? Man, if I were them I'd just cover my head until May.

Motorstorm 2: The CG Trailer

Evolution Studios is setting themselves up for some serious nitpickery with their next MotorStorm, spitting out a pre-rendered trailer that we suppose should be considered a "target render." Regardless of the delivery, as a MotorStorm fan, it's still very exciting stuff. Monster trucks, destructible environments, chesty motorcycle riders wearing low-cut leather get ups getting crushed by giant tires—pretty much everything on our checklist.

LEGO Indiana Jones Boulder Scene

LEGO bats, hidden traps, that whip. Was there ever any doubt that LEGO Indiana Jones was going to be spectacular? No, probably not, but it's still nice to see this amazing bit of gameplay featuring the boulder, yes the LEGO boulder.

High Fantasy Flourishes In Age Of Conan

This trailer for Funcom's Age of Conan MMO, currently due for a May PC release, features all of the hallmarks of classic high fantasy. Sweeping vistas, exotic locations, fantastic creatures, visceral combat, and a woman with a lovely voice singing nonsense words over powerful music. Of course it could just be a real language I am not familiar with. All I know is that halfway through I could swear she sang, "Manly Pepsi, thank you email now", and if my evil plan succeeds you shall hear it as well. Muhahaha!

LEGO Batman: The Videogame

Vicki Vale. Vi-Vi-Vicki Vale.

Check out the trailer to the upcoming game. Complete with mock-serious voiceover guy, a tight-rope waddling Penguin and Vicki Vale. Actually I have no idea if Vicki Vale is in it - those LEGOs all look the same to me - but couldn't pass on her very lovely image.

Hit the jump & check it out.

Sam And Max - Sometimes The Paranoid Are Right

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you. This is a lesson the manic proprietor of Bosco's Inconvenience store learns in the latest episode of Telltale Games' episodic adventure series Sam and Max, Chariots of the Dogs. Due out March 13th on the GameTap service and a day later via Telltale's website, the puppy and rabbit-thing duo will be tasked with finding their friend, though with the prices he charges they'd probably be better off ransacking his store and calling it a day.

Patapon Launch Trailer


Patapon releases next week and having had the privilege of checking it out over the last couple of days, I can tell you it's a really great game. The art style alone is enough to send an artsy guy like me into the stratosphere. If you haven't yet checked out any of the media surrounding this games, be sure to check out this trailer to see what you've been missing. Loco-Roco fans will take to this like a second coming. Great stuff. More »

Facebreaker Trailer

Electronic Arts just put out a short teaser for their upcoming Fight Night meets cartoons game, Facebreaker. It looks like it has potential, though I'm a little concerned that it's essentially just a reskinned Fight Night.

Lost Odyssey "Cities" Trailer


Lost Odyssey will be here in the States soon and GameTrailers has an exclusive trailer featuring some of the city environments. The graphics really look sharp and the city architecture is beautiful, but unfortunately it looks like they've at least partially stuck to that hideous beige and brown color scheme we see so much of in games these days. Hopefully this isn't a choice they've decided to stick with it for the better part of the game. More »

Naruto: Ninja Destiny Looking Fine

You hardly ever see Nintendo DS trailers at the correct resolution, do you? Developer Tomy worked hard to make the U.S. release of Japan's Naruto: Shinobi Retsuden smoother, prettier, and an overall better experience, and they want to make sure that comes through in the video. From what I've seen of the retooled Naruto: Ninja Destiny they've done a fine job. Unfortunate that they choose my two least favorite characters to show it off, but I suppose Rock Lee and Spooky Sand Guy are better than nothing. Yeah, I know he has a name. Sandy or something. I'm slowly warming to Naruto - don't push me.

Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer

Move over Mario and friends, you aren't the only collection of characters that can have a sports game. Sonic and friends are taking to the court in a new tennis game entitled Sega Superstar Tennis. While sports games don't really intrigue me, I do like the collection of characters they've gathered for this game like Nights (from NiGHTS), Amigo (Samba De Amigo) and my personal favorite, Space Channel 5's Ulala. Of course Sonic and Dr. Eggman are on hand as well because after all, what would a Sega title be without Sonic. But this trailer really begs the question: Who would win in a tennis match, team Mario or team Sonic?

New Postal Trailer Arrives in Flaming Bag on Doorstep

Apple Movie Trailers has a new trailer up for Uwe Boll bomb Postal and parts of it, god help me, look funny. Of course, I'm sure it's going to suck. Maybe Boll's true calling in life is making trailers.

From the site:

A religious charlatan (Foley), his mild mannered nephew (Ward) and a gang of bosomy commandos face off against Osama bin Laden and the Taliban in an epic battle that will determine the fate of the world in POSTAL, the latest film from controversial director Uwe Boll ("BloodRayne"). Boll roasts an entire herd of sacred cows and smashes taboos to smithereens in this over-the-top and hilariously subversive critique of modern day America. Inspired by the notorious videogame of the same name, POSTAL is a jaw-droppingly original spoof of contemporary culture and an equal opportunity offender, lampooning religious extremists, minorities, bureaucrats, immigrants, cops, women, the Holocaust, gun nuts and more with evenhanded abandon.

Hmm, when did they change the definition of controversial to really, really, really bad?

Highlander - There Can Be Only Several

How many freaking MacLeods are their? First we had Connor MacLeod, who confused us through several movies. Then Duncan MacLeod, Connor's younger clansman shows up for the TV series and a movie stint. Now the Eidos game for the Xbox 360, PS2, and Games for Windows reportedly features Owen MacLeod. Whatever continuity you follow, this is beginning to get silly. This trailer for the upcoming title was included on the DVD for SciFi's Highlander: The Source TV movie. Seeing as SCi has been tooling around with the franchise for years, let's hope that something fruitful is finally coming of their ownership - and that the company lasts long enough to release it.

Rainbow Six Vegas 2 Slightly More Revealed

Ubisoft's previously released 36 second trailer for Rainbow Six Vegas 2, which contained a small amount of CG footage ending with oppression of the press, has been expanded! Now the curtain has been drawn back, revealing...another minute of CG! Witness the Rainbow Six team doing things in that distinctive Rainbow Six-style, like making silent hand signals, firing various weapons, and their personal favorite thing - blowing up doors. Not sure what they are hoping to accomplish here, other than assure us that it is indeed still an R6 game and they haven't changed it into...say, a rhythm dance title. Thank goodness!
