Would you cut off the end of one of your fingers to save your own kid? Could you actually do that? Tough to think about in theory isn't it? But in the intro to this new gameplay trailer for Heavy Rain, this is just what is asked of the game character. All in a very Saw type of way. Very cool and very creepy. But that of course is not all that it shows in this awesome new trailer. It also shows off, in a very movie trailer way, a bunch of the other action and a bit more on the story of the game.

You know, with Sony flaunting their wand, Microsoft showcasing Natal, and Nintendo - well, doing what Nintendo does, I should not be as impressed with following video. But I am, and I am more excited about this than any project proclaimed by the previous companies. I see so much more in this than the horrible advertisement videos that Microsoft produces for Natal. This is a demo for some very cool augmented reality technology - watch it, and then tell me that you'd rather play "Microsoft Presents: Avatar Kickball Powered by Natal" more than this. It's Virtual Virtua On with a customized interface to give you the utmost in ARG mechanized warfare. Read More...

I bet you are getting tired of all of the these trailers by now. No? Good, because here is yet another one to keep up with Mass Effect 2, BioShock 2, and Heavy Rain. This time it is from Lost Planet 2 and it is in more of an episode style that Capcom has been pumping out for the game. Kind of like a small mini-series for Lost Planet than just a trailer. Which is a nice change of pace. As long as they don't give up too much of the game's story and action. Read More...

During your play through of BioShock, didn't you always wish there was a way to Scout out what was going on in the next room? Wouldn't have been nice to be able to do that and also set up or actually attack enemies in the next room so they were weaker before kicking down the door for the attack? I know I would have saved a few deaths if I was able to do that. Actually screaming out "I wish I could [insert what I said above]" when I died. Not really, but I can picture it in my head.

Capcom is pushing hard for the whole Monster Hunter franchise to take off, so what do they do, turn it into a console MMO. Capcom has announced Monster Hunter Frontier Online for the XBox 360 in Japan. A first for the Monster Hunter Franchise, which has never been on the XBox platform before. $15 a month to play a game online you don't even play by yourself? An online beta will start sometime in May, and according to the website it will have a release date of summer 2010. If your wondering if there is a western release date, there is none at this time.

With the viral campaign for The Secret World kicking off officially yesterday, why not throw another one into the mix. Right? Sony couldn't be out shined by Funcom, that and this campaign will by up and over in a matter of three weeks. Even though it is called the Four Day Experience. Looks like Capcom helped with the math here. In any instance, if you head over to www.HeavyRain. Read More...

With is of course comes a launch trailer/advertisement for the game. Which of course, we have for your viewing pleasure just below my words. Read More...

Hold on to your seats. This latest video clip to hit the internet is going to blow your mind with the action of Quantic Dream's Heavy Rain. Watch as one of the characters goes through their morning ritual of getting ready for the day. The epicness of taking that morning piss. The great hygiene of brushing teeth and shaving. Also all the fun of showering and drying off. Oh, and drinking a bit of orange juice for healthiness. Read More...

It has been a bit since we have had any good and fun news about Funcom's upcoming MMO The Secret World. Am I right or am I right? We are still waiting for the continuation of those cool and creepy videos they were pumping out over last Summer, but it doesn't look like that is coming just yet. But instead, it looks like they are starting another viral marketing scheme to get people interested. Marketing by, you guessed it, a "secret" website based on one of the game's cities and battle locations. Or at least how it is before the crap hits the fan. Read More...

I've come across a multitude of titles in the App Store that attempt to bridge the gap between two gaming genres. There have been varying degrees of success for most of these games, but every now and again there's a title that not only dares to get the formula right - but sees fit to destroy the battery in my phone (which, admittedly, with an iPhone isn't too terribly difficult). In this case the game in question is "Sword&Poker" - and yes it is exactly what it sounds like.In the world of Sword & Poker, the always dreaded Lord of Chaos has snagged the equally ominous Stone of Creation and has formed a intricate dungeon to protect his dark intent.

Now this is what I was hoping for when Sega let loose the Kill Video for Aliens Vs. Predator. At least as it goes for graphics and action. Although it could just be that they are comparing the new game to the original that came out about ten years ago. But in either instance, here is a much better look at Aliens Vs. Predator. Also, unlike the last AvP video, this one isn't just a quick montage of images and scenes. Read More...

So the launch of Mass Effect 2 is only a few days away now. So how does BioWare and EA want you to get excited for it? Well in the epic movie trailer type of way. At least this is how it seems from the new trailer for the game that was just unleashed on the gaming community. Man is it an epic video too. Honestly my words won't be able to describe the clip as well as just watching it. But if you still have yet to skip past my words to the video, let me sum it up. Read More...

Yes you read the headline correctly, Final Fantasy I and II are both coming to the iPhone! With the movement for Mobile devices becoming a gaming force to be reckoned with, we are seeing the larger games quickly making their way into our hot little hands. Square Enix announced on it's Facebook page as well as on Twitter that it would be releasing the first two Final Fantasy titles for the iPhone and iPod Touch. There are practically no details regarding the game, but all we know so far is it's "Coming Soon" but with the below screen shots, it doesn't look like we are too far off.

Just as promised, the Rock Band Network is up and running starting now. That's right, get ready for the flood of unknown musicians of every genre to start flowing on your XBox Live stores and shortly after on the PSN. Shortly meaning about a month later after getting the XBox exclusive treatment and testing out of the way. But that's neither here nor there for the actual news here. The big thing her is that now for the low cost of about $100 dollars, any musician can record and publish their own tracks to the Rock Band Store. Read More...
