I woke up this morning to wonderful news!  Electronic Arts has just released the first teaser trailer for a new American Mcgee Alice game, currently titled Return of Alice.  It’s been nine years since the original American McGee’s Alice was released for the PC, but unfortunately its twisted retelling of the Alice in Wonderland fairy tale never attracted much of an audience.

With this new one being released on consoles, hopefully it will get a lot more attention.  Unfortunately you’ll have to wait till 2011 to get your hands on it.  Until then, you can enjoy this freaky trailer. Read more… »

A new trailer for BioShock 2′s “Capture the Sister” mode has been released.  Judging from the trailer, it looks like a standard game of Smear the Queer just with plasmids, Big Daddies, weapons and splicers.  Now that sounds like my kind of game.

In the mode, you’re objective is to capture the Little Sister and try your hardest to get her safely to the escape point.  Aside from ducking and weaving, it seems as though you’re only form of defence are your plasmids.

On a side note, does anyone else find it kind of eerie that you’re objective is to kidnap a little girl? Read more… »

Every time I think I’m ready to put my Wii away for good, Nintendo goes and does something that reminds me why I fell in love with them in the first place.  Take this newly released New Super Mario Bros. Wii trailer for example.

CG cut scenes always have had a special place in my heart. For years they acted as reward for finishing levels or defeating seemingly impossible bosses.

Hit the break for the trailer, and marvel all its bloody and brutal glory.

There are a couple of elemental truths in life.  One of them is “there’s always a girl”.  Why couldn’t you go out with the guys last Friday night?  There was a girl.  Why couldn’t you get that drug shipment to the dealers on time?  There was a girl.

Ok, maybe you’ve never experienced that last one, but that’s probably because you don’t live in Liberty City.  Luckily for you, Rockstar has created this wonderful video for their upcoming GTA 4 expansion, Episodes from Liberty City, to show you what you’ve been missing.

Check out the trailer above to find out why “there’s always a girl”. Read more… »

The new Modern Warfare 2 trailer premiered tonight on U.S. television during the San Diego Chargers vs. Pittsburgh Steelers football game.  As expected, the gameplay footage looks absolutely gorgeous and is filled with lots of high tech death and destruction.  What isn’t expected is the geographic locations the trailer takes place in.

I don’t want to ruin it for you, because the end of the video contains a huge surprise that is sure to knock you off your feet.  All I have to say is that Infinity Ward continues to impress, even with a game that was gauranteed to sell 10 million copies the minute it was announced.
