The Total War series returns later this year with Shogun 2: Total War, the sequel to the game that gave the venerable franchise its start.

First revealed earlier today, here’s a teaser trailer for a project code-named Kingdoms, which is what happens when the Crysis guys watch Spartacus one too many times. I can’t remember the last time I heard so many words fail to tell me anything
Yesterday, I thought Kinect’s Star Wars game looked pretty interesting! Oh, what a difference a day and some extra footage makes.
