Not content to rest with BC: Rearmed, Bionic Commando is the first true sequel to the franchise; as a commenter noted, it’s like Spider-Man with guns; good enough for us.

This isn’t just another Harley Davidson Fat Boy replica; taking LEGO to the max, it uses a NXT controller shaped like a handlebar complete with throttle control and brake lever.

Tired of noisy neighbors or roomies? The Revenge CD is packed with 20 ways to get back at ‘em; selections include “House Party,” “Violin Practice,” and our favorite: “Unhappy Dog.”

We *think* this trailer for Fable 2 is about the consequences of your actions or something, but frankly we’re just reveling in all the random hacking, slashing, casting, and shooting.

It’s tough not to wax nostalgic with Midnight Club: Los Angeles; this trailer stars a properly riced-out 1999 Nissan Skyline tearin’ up Southland asphalt (and the occasional sidewalk).

We haven’t figured out a way to man them up yet, but these tiny 3.4cm tall Tomy Robo-Qs will be sure to delight the ladies by navigating around obstacles and just being ridiculously cute.

Although there’s not much sound, this montage-style trailer for WoW’s upcoming Wrath of the Lich King expansion gives a pretty good idea of gameplay and new environments.

Quantum Theory is Asia’s answer to Gears of War, with a predictably pretty looking hero (named “Sid” of all things); it’s also got a bit of Fracture mixed in with deformable environments.

The trailer could be clearer, but we like what we see with indie-developed Naumachia, a multiplayer space-combat sim; they’re currently working on the alpha and looking for investors.

Scoring 97 points, Jean-Marc’s XO Vodka is premium-level liquor; distilled nine times with four French wheat grains, this unflavored vodka is super smooth with hints of star anise.

In theaters now, City of Ember is definitely geared towards a younger audience, but we’re intrigued by its post-apocalyptic survivor story. It smacks of a kid-friendly version of Fallout.

Blasphemy: we prefer Mecha to the original Godzilla: standing 11″ tall and amazingly detailed for a vinyl, Mecha Godzilla sports articulating limbs; no word on the laser eye cannon, however.

GemCraft is a fantasy-oriented Tower Defense game. Towers are upgraded with “gems” which can be mixed to increase potency; if you’re in a bind, lob ‘em at enemies and they’ll explode.

Most game trailers are pretty run of the mill, but we like this S.H.I.E.L.D trailer for Spider-Man: Web of Shadows; it’s like a public service announcement, albeit with tongue in cheek.

It’s what we’ve all been waiting for: more gameplay vids for Starcraft 2. Check out either the Zerg vs. Terran or the Protoss goin’ at the Terrans. The Colossus is weak sauce, btw.

We’re always a fan of epic football movies, and The Express seems to be no exception. Starring Dennis Quaid and Rob Brown, it’s about the first African American to win the Heisman.

Wow–check out the detail on our favorite mindless Gears of War juggernaut, Boomer; polystone makes all the intricate lines possible. Choose from bronze or platinum; it’s available 11/08.

Few franchises remind us of the glory days or arcades more than Street Fighter; the trailer above demos Akuma with a healthy dose of Hakouken! thrown in; click here for Sakura.

We can never get enough Blizzard news, which is why we’re amped up by this latest trailer for Diablo III that focuses on the wizard class. Hang in there: gameplay is towards the end.
