Super Monkey Ball 3DS Trailer

The first trailer for Super Monkey Ball 3DS has arrived.

There isn’t a whole lot to say about the trailer, you can’t tell how well the 3D works on a PC monitor so I can’t really comment on that. I do, however like the tropical sounding music going on!

I’m more interested in this Monkey Ball then other recent ones however, as this one’s being developed by the original team in Japan. One thing I will mention is that I hope those red rails that stop you falling out of the level do not stick around past the first few stages. I want at least SOME challenge!

Finally I really, really hope that the mini games are fun and fleshed out again. I don’t know about anyone else but the mini games in Super Monkey Ball 1, 2 and Deluxe are what kept me and my friends coming back time and time again. In more recent monkey in ball related outings the mini games have been quantity before quality, often serving as more of a tech demo for what ever control gimmick they have been designed around and not fun mini games.

Let’s hope we can trust the original team to get the (monkey) ball rolling again… Yeah, I went there!

Yakuza 4 trailer – Kazuma Kiryu

Here is the story trailer for everyone’s favorite Kazuma, the Dragon of Dojima. I’m really liking the narration job on the trailers, its a real 180 turn in quality compared to the third game.

The game is set to hit PS3 owners on March 15, 2011, you guys ready?

New Phantasy Star Portable 2: Infinity Trailer

The newest trailer for ‘Phantasy Star Portable 2: Infinity’ the expansion to the original Phantasy Star Portable 2 has got the Phantasy Star fans in a crazed speculation frenzy.

Because not only does it show some of the new characters, races, game play and locations. The end of the trailer shows something far more interesting… Near the end of the trailer you’ll see an old looking spaceship rising from the ground.

Hit the jump to find out more about the story/speculation.

Yakuza 4 character trailer – Shun Akiyama


WATCH IT!!

Nagoshi’s latest game, Binary Domain might have had a “not so great” debut trailer, but it seems his Yakuza 4 game is starting off its American marketing rather well. Now we are starting character trailers with Shun Akiyama.

I like the English voice trailer, even if they are trying to hide the fact that the game will be all Japanese voiced. Game will be hitting a Playstation 3 near you this upcoming Spring. You ready?

Conduit 2 – Intro Trailer

“Conduit 2 fans rejoice, today we reveal new video footage of High Voltage Software’s Wii FPS! The video, which features a cinematic look at Conduit details the ending from Conduit 1 and the intro for Conduit 2.”
-Sega

Well, the intro looks good at least. I get a bit of a Half Life 2 vibe from it, I think that’s what they were trying to capture with ‘The Conduit’ story line.

Yeah, I don’t expect it to play anything like Half Life either… But it would be nice!

Yakuza 4 Story Trailer – Must Watch!

What ever you do today, don’t miss this trailer!

Why? Because it is easily the best English trailer for a Yakuza game, ever! It’s even better than the original Yakuza games trailers, back when they were really trying to break into the western market!

The trailers shows basically everything the Yakuza series is about, has a great narrator, script and manages to be funny too. It really delivers!

If you still haven’t jumped into the Yakuza series Yakuza 4 is the perfect place to jump in. Considered the best game in the series yet by many it is also not necessary to have played the previous games to get into the story.

Valkyria Chronicles II DLC trailer is pretty nifty


Trailers, not just a moving house, but moving pictures  of awesomeness. Check out the trailer above, showing off some of the DLC you will be able to purchase on the PSN store tomorrow. The pack will cost you only $4.99, comes with 22 missions.

In Japan, they paid a dollar per mission. So yeah, purchase it and thank SEGA for bundling them all together.

Football Manager 2011 – Demo and Trailer

Above is the official trailer for Football Manager 2011. I can’t say it is my favorite trailer I’ve seen for this series. But I think it is a good idea to go with trailers that are less about the game itself and more about the passion behind the sport. That said I have no passion for football at all.

If FM2011 is relevant to your interests, then you can now download and play the demo:

The Football Manager 2011 Demo is available to download today, free and exclusively in association with Mirror Football. Click the link below to download from Steam and follow the onscreen instructions to install. You will need a Steam account to download, but signing up is free.

Sonic Free Riders multiplayer trailer

Here is the new trailer for the upcoming Sonic Free Riders, a game that is launching exclusively for Kinect in a couple of days. I have to say, it looks rather fun, I’m just not hip enough to get into the whole motion controller craze.

The game shows some of the modes you will be experincing if you decided to drop the cash for the upcoming add on; including vs. mode, co-op and relay race.

Sonic Colours Trailer 3 Reveals New Wisps!

The third trailer for Sonic Colours is here! This time showing off a brand new level set in an outer-space level.

The trailer also shows three wisps in action including the brand new Purple Frenzy wisp, Blue Cube wisp and the already announced Green Hover wisp and Pink Spikes wisp.

I’m not sure what to make of the purple one yet. Looks like the least interesting of the lot so far. The blue on the other hand seems to work like a Mario Power (P) item changing blocks into blue rings you can collect. I see a lot of potential for platforming and puzzles in the blue wisp.

Also worth noting is the pink wisps ability to Spin Dash, pretty cool but something Sonic should have by default in my opinion.

New Free Riders trailer has a hint of Metal

With the release of Sonic Free Riders only a few weeks away, it’s about time that SEGA showed off a bit more of the game. The latest trailer, seen above, features some new tracks, voice acting and best of all a certain metallic hedgehog.
