E3: Kingdoms of Amalur – Reckoning
The new RPG from Todd McFarlane, Curt Schilling, Ken Rolston and R.A. Salvatore has a shiny trailer out for E3. The game, from 38 Studios, being pushed by EA is what was once the mysterious “Project Mercury”. The setting, Amalur, is created by R.A. Salvatore and uses the visual style of Spawn’s Todd McFarlane. If […]
E3: Halo 4 trailer
Thanks to a pesky little leak from Microsoft’s own website – we knew we’d be getting both Halo 4 and a reboot of the franchise. That doesn’t mean there was reason to turn away from E3’s Halo 4 announcement today. This video – at risk of being YouTube yanked, I fear – captures the all […]
E3: Fable – The Journey news, pictures and video
We have Fable news. There will be a new Fable and it’ll be Fable: The Journey. Albion’s end is coming, no more heroes are being born – but can be made – and all that matters now is the Journey. Peter Molyneux of Microsoft’s Lion Head Studios and Fable’s main man took the stage at […]
Blade – the daywalker’s anime trailer
Madhouse, Marvel and Animax have teamed up to put together an anime version of Blade. Is it about time? Did you know Blade first made a comic book appearance back in 1973 when he appeared in The Tomb of Dracula #10? Wikipedia could be tricking me for all I know; he feels a far younger […]
Darksiders 2: Wrath of War announcement trailer
Okay, I’ll admit that Darksiders might not be 100% RPG goodness but there are elements of the genre in there – besides, the mythology and setting of Darksiders appeals to many native geeks. In Darksiders we delt with the Apocalypse, started by War prematurely – or so we thought. There’s a twist there. In Darksiders […]
Not the sex toy Saints Row: The Third trailer
What’s the difference between an “action RPG” and a “non-linear shooter”? In both cases the emphasis is on running around and blasting things. I think the answer to the question is setting; War in the North is an action RPG because it’s set in Middle Earth and therefore the target market slants towards roleplayers. Saints […]
Arkham City: Catwoman trailer
If you want to spend some time watching Catwoman’s bum then this new Arkham City trailer is for you. Arkham is shaping up to be both visually stunning but also intelligently complex with the story and sides. You have options in this game and I get the feeling that not everything will be as it […]
Dungeon Siege 3 demo trailer
Another Dungeon Siege 3 trailer… very similar to the others, getting a bit fed up of that bird. Here’s the catch. This video managed to sell DS3 to me in a way that the others hadn’t. It’s supposed to be a bit of a demo video; showing how the new Dungeon Siege might look in […]
