After their Sex & Violence trailer and now this cinematic E3 trailer, it’s becoming clear that BioWare is positioning Dragon Age: Origins as the RPG of choices for badasses everywhere.

The NRA has nothing on this guns trailer for Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood; it’s a lead-filled montage of six shooters, bolt action rifles and even a cannon; in other words, “Dy-no-mite.”

Mix Conan the Barbarian with a viral outbreak set in modern times and you have Nier, Square Enix’s latest action adventure game; the trailer above is a mix of gameplay and cinematics.

It looks like Futurama’s Raiders of the Lost Arcade segment, but the video above is an actual game; it includes Fry’s Rush soundtrack, episode clips and a Planet Express Ship cameo.

We’ve seen plenty of Transformers footage, but this One Shall Stand trailer for the game rocks our socks simply for having Peter Cullen do Prime–that, and nearly non-stop action.

Just like its predecessor, Natural Selection 2 is an aliens vs. marines Half-Life mod; it’s due out this year but we’re drooling over this in-engine teaser, which shows off the playable Onos.
