“The Stilt Police, they live inside of my head. The Stilt Police, they come to me in my bed.” Well, not really, but they are in the brand new trailer for Arkane Studios’ Dishonored. While this trailer is all CG (no gameplay), Dishonored still looks promising.

Dishonored puts you in the role of an assassin in a dystopian, Dickensian, steampunk style world. To me it looks like its got flavors of BioShock, Assassin’s Creed, and Thief. And of course now I’m going to be singing that damned song all day… “The Stilt Police, they’re coming to arrest me, oh, no.”

Spanish game developer Pendulo Studios just released its newest title, Yesterday. To commemorate the occasion, they also released a trailer. Full of torture, alchemy, satanic worship and more.

At the end of the trailer, we’re left with the haunting words, “this is going to be fun,” but will it?

You’ll just have to wait and see as Gamer Limit has its review coming soon. Just as a note, we reviewed Pendulo’s previous title, The Next Big Thing, and gave it an 8.5 / 10. These guys know what they’re doing.

Pendulo Studios specializes in point-and-click adventure. Yesterday, however, looks more like point-and-click thriller.

Moonshade is mysterious; Moonshade is deadly. At least, that is what she boasts. So fast you won’t even feel it, she says. So quiet … ah, enough of the hyperbole.

Moonshade is part of the assassin class in Certain Affinity’s upcoming action RPG for Xbox Live Arcade, Crimson Alliance. The final character trailer released today shows her getting her deadly on with rapid knife throws, magic blades and some out-of-screen knockouts. Of course, Gamer Limit has it for you. Of course, it’s after the break.

If you find this trailer intriguing, make sure you also check out the gameplay trailer for Direwolf, wizard class. Crimson Alliance releases September 7. Will you be getting your action RPG assassin on?

Meet Direwolf in the new trailer for Certain Affinity’s upcoming XBLA exclusive, Crimson Alliance. Like all other maladjusted wizards of yore, he was shunned, treated like a pariah. But that didn’t stop him from building up his wizard powers.

Oh no, it only fueled him more to a point where he can now kick wholesale ass. Gamer Limit has the trailer for you, of course.

For those of you not familiar with the title, Crimson Alliance is a multiplayer action RPG where you take control of either a mercenary, assassin or wizard to battle the Cult of the Soul Siren to bloody death. Up to 4 players share one screen as they make their way through countless hordes of baddies. The whole affair reminds me of Gauntlet Legends.

So, Direwolf …

How big is the sword? How about one that spans the distance between the moon and the earth? It’s something we’ve grown to expect from Capcom and Asura’s Wrath.

The latest trailer from gamescom has Asura going head to head against his former mentor, Augus. Before you click on to see said trailer, let’s get some legal out of the way: by clicking to read more you acknowledge that you are over 18 years old. Now, enjoy.

Bastion is an upcoming action RPG by Supergiant Games that hits XBLA this Wednesday, July 20. And it looks gorgeous. Seriously, you must’ve been living under a rock or without internet access if you haven’t heard of Bastion’s hand-painted art style and reactive narrator by now.

So give your ears and eyeballs a treat and watch the brand new launch trailer. Then read our review which will go live tomorrow morning.

Open beta begins Thursday for World of Battles: Morningstar. To kick it off, developer Frogwares has released the above video. Much can be gleaned from a trailer such as this — World of Battles: Morningstar is a Real Time Strategy (RTS) game. It offers many customizations that allow the player to really tailor the experience to his or her style. There are a variety of fantastic and less fantastic creatures that you get to control in heated battle  (8 to be exact).

Arguably, the surprising thing about this trailer is that the game looks good, F2P or no. I’ll leave it up to you decide whether it has the power to steer you away from Starcraft II or League of Legends for a prolonged period of of time; but at the price point of zero, where’s the risk of trying out new IP?

World of  Battles: Morningstar is also a surprising game to come from Frogwares. The studio’s resume up until this point has focused on licensed Adventures the likes of Sherlock Holmes and Jules Verne. Expect Gamer Limit’s impressions on this game to come soon. Until then, hop onto the game’s site and register if you feel so inclined (did I mention it was free). Let us know what you think in the comments below.

Yes, it’s that time of year again when Activision roll out the first reveal trailer of the next Call of Duty game ready for release in November. This time it’s Modern Warfare 3, and it’s a predictable affair: real-life locations have come under siege, husky soldiers riot through sprawling urban locations guns blazing, and helicopters crash and explode with cinematic bombast. And not to be outdone by Battlefield 3, it too has a falling skyscraper shot straight out of Transformers 3.

The trailer also hints at the game’s globe-trotting locations which includes the likes of Germany, France and England which is a refreshing change from the Middle East.

Set your sights on the first gameplay reveal of Modern Warfare 3 after the jump.

One thing’s for certain: this November is going to be an all-out war between this and the opposing Battlefield 3. Now that we’ve seen footage of both contenders, which has you gunning for glory the most? If you ask me, Battlefield 3′s Frostbite 2.0 tech and solid multiplayer reputation gives it the edge, but Call of Duty’s unstoppable fanfare will probably say otherwise.

Red 5 Studios released a new trailer Friday for the highly anticipated PC shooter Firefall. This trailer gives us insight on the PvP action and classes we can expect from this first person/third person hybrid.

Riding on the comet tail of this trailer is the announcement that Red 5 will be hosting a live streaming event next week to show off more PvP action. Gamer Limit has all the details.

The live streaming event will focus on fine tuning the competitive e-Sports gameplay. To get things just right, the studios have invited “key” e-Sports broadcasters for a round table discussion. Broadcasters will also call an internal dev deathmatch that will show off Firefall‘s Spectator Mode for the first time.

So if you liked the trailer, mark your calendar, prepare yourself for some high action PvP and tune in to Red 5 Studios’ Justin TV channel May 6th, 6pm PDT.

Battlefield 3 is getting a lot  love on Facebook, with approximately 781,000 likes as of this article’s publication. This is accelerated no doubt by EA and DICE’s  promise to release a full 12 minute gameplay trailer once they reach 1,000,000. You don’t have to wait that long. The trailer is out and Gamer Limit has it for you.

Perhaps EA and DICE were too excited, perhaps they had certain PR deadlines that just needed to be met. In any case, it’s a win for fans and gamers in general. It must be noted that the trailer with commentary is yet to be unlocked. That won’t stop you from enjoying this eye popping video, however. If you have never gotten your hands on any of the games in the Battlefield series, this trailer may motivate you to do so in anticipation of this beauteous game.

Fair warning — not safe for work language is included in this video ahead.

DICE executive producer, David Bach, has lauded the game as truly next gen. In a recent interview with CVG, he says the engine that drives this masterful first person shooter not only pushes the PS3 and 360 to their limits, but can dominate graphically on the next generation of consoles as well. “I think Battlefield 3 will look like a next-generation game and all the technology we’re building, the whole Frostbite 2 system – the animations, audio, everything – is trying to aim for a couple of years in the future, rather than looking at what we have today.”

Is this 12 minute trailer a sneak peak into the future? Let us know what you think in the comments section.

I described this trailer in the news mashup. It’s much better if you see it yourself. THQ and Volition Inc.’s April fools joke came one day early, which is smart when you think about it. Catch ‘em when they least expect it. Cheers to Saints Row: The Third.

The last news mash-up came like a real bad hangover right after new years. This one is somewhat of a hangover, if you’re the type to drink on a Wednesday (on which I pass no judgment; I’ve been there). Let’s begin, shall we?

Level One: Wake Up And It’s Terrible

Something close to  a hurling feeling you may feel when you find out that Capcom has canceled Mega Man Universe. That means no fan-made levels, no wacky original U.S. boxart costume, no Ryu of Street Fighter fame. The company is rather vague about the issue, only citing the title has been cut due to “various circumstances”.

This is truly disappointing news to wake up to. More disappointing than the news that Square Enix had canceled Gun Loco earlier this month. Here’s hoping that these cancellations don’t start an axing trend (Guitar Hero pun not intended).

Level Two:The Sun Can’t Hide The Legal Notice On Your Door

Now, add legal woes to this hangover cocktail. Bad blood had been stirring between Ubisoft and THQ ever since last year when Patrice Désilets, Ubisoft’s former creative director, suddenly packed up  and headed over to THQ’s new Montreal studios. The French site, Rue Frontenac, broke a story close to industrial espionage when it revealed that THQ had swooped up several other Ubisoft leads soon after, all from the same Assassin’s Creed team.  THQ’s Danny Bilson then bragged about it to Joystiq in January.

In short order, Ubisoft filed for two injunctions with the Superior Court of Québec, later confirmed by Gameinformer. In legalese, an injunction is a court order for an individual/company to do or stop doing a specified thing. The injunction is meant to stop the Ubisoft manager poaching in THQ’s case.  So reads the Ubisoft’s official statement:

Ubisoft has filed a request before the Superior Court of Québec for injunction orders against THQ Inc. in order to have them comply with the non-solicit clause included in Ubisoft Montreal’s employee work contracts. The Superior Court of Québec has granted the injunctions to the satisfaction of Ubisoft. This procedure aims to protect Ubisoft Montreal in a breach of contract situation, and to defend the long-term financial and creative health of the studio.

Level Three: A Little Water In This Drought

Maybe all you need is a shot to quell the pain. A nutshot. That’s what you get when you watch the latest Saints Row: The Third trailer. In fact, that’s all you get, preceeded and followed by a lengthy disclaimer and the standard company logos.

Twitter was lit ablaze with anticipation of this trailer and, once it finally reared its head, you only get a split second of in-game footage. Call it a prank. Call it hype. I laughed when I saw it. However, that made my headache hurt even more.
