See the First Five Minutes of BioShock 2

*Spoiler Alert* Someone doesn’t seem to know the meaning of “Highly Confidential” or even simple instructions like “Do Not Distribute”. Thanks to the idiot we’ve got the first five minutes of BioShock . At least the clip doesn’t give too much away and if anything it’s made me even more interested than I initially was, which is probably due to the teams involved, speaking of which, have you ever seen that many developers on one ident?

Tron Evolution’s VGA Premiere

As expected, footage from Tron Evolution, the tie-in game to next winter’s Tron Legacy, was shown during the VGAs. The trailer is a bit short when it comes to revealing any sort of story but is drenched in light cycle and glowing disc goodness. Trailer after the jump. Read More »

Spartans Never Die George

It’s what we all waited for, this is probably all we’re gonna hear from Reach until next year so savor this trailer carefully. Maybe watch a bit each day, don’t waste it all at once… ahh what the heck, it’s Halo – indulge!

From what I can see the trailer is all filmed in-game, I’m digging that skull helmet and it looks like the Elites are back. I guess we’ll have to hold out until E3 before we see any sort of gameplay running the new engine, tis exciting.

Would You Like to Blow S**t Up With Me?

After watching this trailer multiple times I can’t seem get this song out of my head now, I have myself to blame. Crackdown 2 teases us with destruction galore and yes, we would be happy to oblige to the question asked.

Medal of Honor Gameplay Trailer

Oh it’s War! Judging by the trailer it’s gonna be hard to tell these two games apart, with the second game being Modern Warfare 2 – obviously! Hot on the heels of MW2’s release and with Battlefield only months away, if World War II is anything to go by, this “Modern War” shooter trend is set to go the way of the dodo.

The trailer looks amazing as expected and maybe the competition will bring great results. I’m hoping EA opt for a more open world experience, Call of Duty has always seemed too linear for my liking, too driven. It’ll be interesting to see what can be done with the Medal of Honor series, fingers crossed they take it in a new direction. I’ve got a lot of trust in EA as of now; we all know they’re not the same company they once were.
