Square Enix have been showing off some more of Final Fantasy XIV. In particular, they’ve addressed some initial concerns that the game looked a bit bland. I would agree that the lighting differences between the alpha test and beta test versions are more dramatic. I do worry about the combat though. I used to perfer […]

Second Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows trailer
What’s this? The very same day I lazily put up the original and HD Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows trailer another one comes along. Who do we have to thank for this? Why; Lego! If you ordered the collectors edition of the lego edition of the Harry Potter game for the movie then you’re […]
Raving Rabbids Travel in Time
I think the Raving Rabbids is one of the best franchises for the Wii. Simply put; the games are fun. Wasn’t so sure about the last one and its lack of mini-games but it was still fun. Ubisoft thinks there’s life in these cheeky scamps yet. As a result we can expect more Rabbid chaos […]
Portal 2: All five trailer parts – for science, you monster
Thanks to the godlike E3 we already have had one superb teaser trailer for Portal 2. Poor GLaDOS has been busy being dead ever since you murdered her. You monster. However, for science, we now have five more trailers for the game. They’re all awesome.
Pokemon: Black and White trailer
It feels like I’ve used the phrase “this is a bit Pokemon like” or similar a lot recently. The reason for that is two-fold. Pokemon has inspired many games – or, at least, parts of Pokemon has inspired parts of many games. Secondly, Pokemon has that iconic status which begs for comparison. This game is rather […]
Studio Ghibli RPG: Ninokuni looks impressive
The gameplay trailer for Ninokuni looks really good. Coming to the PS3 in 2011 (at least in Japan) is an RPG that’s been developed by Level-5 and the famous anime creators Studio Ghibli. The RPG follows the young Oliver, from Hotriot after the death of his mother Arie. A magical doll, given as a present, […]
Is the 3DS really capable of these graphics? Resident Evil Relevations sparks debate
The 3DS is Nintendo’s next handheld console. It’s a two screen 3D device. One of the games for the console leading the adoption charge is the next in the evergreen Resident Evil franchise; Resident Evil Relevations. Capcom have released a trailer for the Relevations game. The graphics are supposed to have been rendered in “real […]
Portal 2: For Science – You Monster
Seems like the computer might be willing to forgive you – in the name of science. Mind you, maybe she forgives you in the same way she intends to share her cake with you! This trailer for Portal 2 aired at the Sony Conference during the 2010 E3. We’re expecting the sequel to be available […]
Impressive Star Wars: The Old Republic trailer ‘Hope’
I’m awfully impressed with this trailer for Star Wars: The Old Republic. I think Bioware and Lucasarts have managed to create something that will be true to the Star Wars mythos and still be fun to play through as a game. Some of the extra insight we have are just as impressive. Players will have […]
Banned Guitar Hero: World Tour ad – too racey for TV but okay for YouTube
In 2008 the supermodel Marisa Miller filmed one of those famous Guitar Hero ads. As Guitar Hero: World Tour has rather more instruments than the original game we get to see Marisa Miller play with a wider range instruments too. You’ll have to forgive us for the footage. It’s clearly picked up from the cutting […]
