Rock Band 2 Gameplay Trailer

Here's the latest Rock Band 2 trailer and, whatever you think of the Foo Fighters (I happen to enjoy this particular cut) you probably agree that Harmonix is not fucking around. We've posted on rumors about their deep tracklist, free RB1 DLC and backwards compatibility, and also about the wireless instruments and improved standard drumkit, the insane $300 drumkit if you're so inclined. In other words, they'll definitely call Guitar Hero: World Tour's raise. Is it a re-raise though? Discuss.

New Baja Trailer: Try to Control Yourself

I would have thought that Desert Bus would forever remove both "real-time" and "desert terrain" from the marketing lexicon of any playable video game. As the brand new trailer above shows, THQ/2XL Games' Baja is eminently playable. Suddenly 240-minute endurance races don't seem so bad. I might need a USB glucose drip IV when this comes out in August.

Dark Sector Launch Trailer

Here's the launch trailer for D3Publisher's Dark Sector, and while the gameplay still strikes me as a bit unexciting, the cutscenes certainly seem to pack a punch. This is one of those releases that is going to have me extremely conflicted. Not so much interested in the single player, but the multiplayer sounds nifty and the storyline and voice acting might be just enough to tip me over to the purchase side of the fence. It's one of those games that will have me at the game store on the 26th, endlessly picking it up, getting halfway to the register and then putting it back down again. The GameStop employees absolutely love me.

First Persona 4 Promo Trailers Hit The Tubes

Persona 4 was just previewed in Famitsu yesterday and already someone has ripped the promo videos that came with the magazine. (Of course they are both in Japanese) They are both pretty lengthy, one being ten minutes, the other coming in at around eight. I've only recently been inducted into the angsty, head shooting world of Persona 3 and I must admit I find it quite fascinating. Sadly there is no head shooting in the new Persona but hopefully this new game will be just as intriguing as its predecessors.

Make the jump to check out promo number two!

Zero Punctuation Previews Going To X-Play

Wow Yahtzee, you've done the impossible. You have a television program running previews of a freaking 3-minute review. Yeah, did you hear? X-Play will be running a snippet of your upcoming Zero Punctuations every Tuesday night. And including the clip's introduction, run time, and accompanying in-show bumpers, we wouldn't be surprised if this Tuesday teaser took just as long as your actual Wednesday review.

It's ludicrous media piggybacking, but we don't blame you...pending that you sleep on a big pile of greenbacks after a hard day's work.

Star Ocean 4 Shows Off Its CG

Direct from Square Enix's 2008 Jump Festa and GEMAGA.com, this is the trailer for Square Enix's Star Ocean 4, displaying some pretty impressive CG, and really nothing else. There are stars, and I am pretty sure I spied an ocean down there. Who knew Square Enix could create such stunning CG? What, everybody? Oh. It's true that Squenix CG trailers are a dime a dozen these days while gameplay clips of their big RPGs are few and far between. All they really tell us is that the company believes in the game enough to invest the time and money on creating a short teaser. Still, I do love me some Star Ocean!

PlayStation Store Update - Cocoreccho!

The PlayStation store updated today with a ton of new demos, trailers, and a whole new game that Kotaku's Michael McWhertor called "unbearably unenjoyable". That unfettered praise was of course for LocoRoco Cocoreccho!, the butterfly-powered LocoRoco game that is now available on the PSN for $6.99, a low price indeed for possible...suckage. *sighs* On top of the new game, there are demos galore, with Skate, NBA Live 08, Stuntman: Ignition and Sega Rally Revo all ready to be slowly downloaded for your demoing enjoyment. Top it off with a heaping helping of trailers from games like Devil May Cry, Ratchet and Clank, and GT5 Prologue and you've got a lot less hard disk space than you did before. Enjoy!

Lost Debut Trailer

Gamevideos has posted the first trailer for Ubisoft's Lost videogame that debuted earlier today at Comic Con, based off of the show that you all watch religiously unless you are some kind of blasphemous heretic. Being a blasphemous heretic myself, my only exposure to the show has been commercials, and yep...this certainly could pass for one. It has the requisite familiar faces, the appropriate setting and mood, and those damn peaking violins that just cry out, "Be in suspense, dammit!" As for show accuracy and such...well that's what we have a comments section for. So those of you who know more than we do can lord it over our heads. Knock yourselves out!

Clip: Transformers Movie Game Trailer

Yes I know, blah blah Michael Bay, yadda yadda Starscream monkey. You're looking at a guy who has a closet in his apartment set aside specifically for Transformers brand robot goodness, and I'm saying that the trailer for the Transformers Movie game gave me chills. It doesn't look particularly awesome, and the characters are downright unrecognizable, but that voice...

Between Peter Cullen's voice work on the title and the game being the only place I can hear Frank Welker doing Megatron any time soon, the game could have a known issue that causes consoles to explode and I'd probably still pick it up. I'd just play it over at my nephew's house.

Clip: Tenchu Z Trailer - Hot Ninja Action

Much like many professional athletes later become coaches, Rikimaru from the Tenchu series has taken on a teaching role. This time around, you are the protagonist, on the path to becoming the ultimate ninja warrior. As if.

While I am pretty sure the idea using gold earned in missions to dress up your ninja is going to get someone garroted in the middle of the night, From Software seems to have crafted a capable ninja game for the 360, all things considered. Of course you couldn't create a true ninja video game without it killing you and everyone who plays it. Think The Ring, only with less waterlogged women, more katana to the throat.

Rally Cross, GT HD 1.1 Hit PlayStation Store

Some new and new old and old new updates have been posted to the PlayStation Store recently, including Rally Cross for the PSP, which weighs in at a healthy 105MB. The PSone racer is priced at $5.99 and will surely be playable on the PS3 any day now. More »

Clips: Dragon Quest Swords Trailer

Now this is what the Wii is all about. Swinging the wiimote around like a sword while making swooshing noises. Pretty sure the whole swooshing noise bit is optional, but it can't help but enhance the gameplay experience. More »

Lego DDR Dance Off Video

It always fascinates me how long it takes to make one of these stop action videos. The time and care that people put into these clips is truly amazing. More »

Castle Crashers... HORRIFICALLY RACIST!

For some, Castle Crashers is just a fun looking little Golden Axe-like with the art style of Dad 'N' Me or Alien Hominid. For others? A horrific parable of genocide, in which the Ku Klux Klan take swords in hand to slice and dice the enemy gollywogs, and maybe burn some upside down crosses for extra lives. More »

New Bully Trailer, With Twice as Much Puking

Computer and Video Games has the latest trailer for Bully, alias Canis Canem Edit, and they're not sharing. I'm going to make you hit the link to watch it on their site, as a quick YouTube hit didn't turn anything up. More »

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories 'Pop' Trailer

GameVideos.com is hosting the second Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories trailer, featuring a flabby, flirty walrus and a cross-dressing, Bowie-esque bellboy who informs us that everyone was on cocaine in 1984. Hell, still am!

Sam and Max: Culture Shock Goes Gold

Well, it's finally done and the newest trailer makes me even less excited than I have been. This nutless voice acting and subdued animation is just not up to the Sam and Max par, and frankly I'm just not looking forward to it anymore. More »
