Awesome Games

Most game adaptations of movies are poor, but this Transformers: RotF trailer is actually pretty decent; if they transform like that in-game, we’re sold. PS: watch it all the way through!

This Pac-Man Sour Set combines two geek loves with pellet- and ghost-shaped sour candies; we particularly like the Pac-Man tin, which dispenses pellets like an 8-bit pharmacist.

We’re not Wild West fans, but Red Dead Redemption has several things going for it: it’s by Rockstar, it’ll be open-world, and the trailer shows off graphics that would make a cowboy weep.

Flickr user Reintji has an illuminating (and growing) collection of x-rayed consoles and their controllers; you’ll see the naughty bits of everything from a PS3 to the borg-like Gamecube.

‘Splosion Man is eerily similar to Explodemon, but we’re all for more exploding platformers with maniacal laughter; it’ll feature 50 single player levels and 50 four-player co-op levels.

It’s too much for our Andorian antennae to handle: Star Trek Continuum Edition squeezes all our favorite Enterprise/DS9 captains onto one board, with both Monopoly and Star Trek rules.

Chroma Circuit is a color matching game that starts off simply enough by requiring you to rotate adjacent pieces; our ape brains are still stumped by the energy transfers. Thanks, Josh!

Created by a team of three artists, these jaw-dropping sci-fi SFAMs (scenes from a movie) of Blade Runner, Alien and I Am Legend were rendered using Crysis’ CryENGINE 2.

In addition to all the goodies in The Beatles: Rock Band Limited Edition, two custom guitars will also be available for $99 a pop on 9/9: a Gretsch Duo-Jet and Rickenbacker 325.

Roughly half of this debut trailer for Star Trek D.A.C. uses clips from the Star Trek movie, which isn’t a good sign for the game; still, any footage is like Dilithium from heaven for Trekkies.

The first trailer for Red Steel 2 is out–sort of; meant for retailers only, it’s a bit of a mystery as it’s shown by MSN Games Brazil from a Playstation event but with a Wii controller.

Spoiler warning: this trailer for Fallout 3’s Broken Steel DLC has a big honkin’ spoiler, but you’d also miss out on big honkin’ robots; available today, it also raises your level cap to 30.

Endless Zombie Rampage 2 improves over its predecessor with new weapons, perks and missions; the zombies are easy, at least until they start spitting blood at you and exploding.

Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood is lookin’ mighty fine with this Southern Hospitality trailer; it’s a weapon-tastic extravaganza, from gatling guns and TNT to rapid-fire queued shooting.

It’s probably not the best idea to build your fortress like a deck of cards, but this Castle-themed House of Cards puts all your kings, queens and jokers in their proper place–on the inside.

They may wear Roman headgear, but Overlord II’s mischievous gremlins act more like rampaging Barbarians in this Minion Maximus trailer; hell, they even club a baby seal at 1:05.

Army of Two’s mysterious 40th Day Initiative gets its big reveal in this latest trailer; it’s a bit more serious than their past videos, with an ongoing series of terrorist attacks on Shanghai.

Spore’s Galactic Adventures goes 50s sci-fi; its open universe model is a weakness to some, but the Space Captain trailer does a good job making it look like the best fun this side of Uranus.

Like a 2D version of Battlestar Galactica (they even share the same initials), Gratuitous Space Battles lets you customize spaceships and then send them off to giant battles to slug it out.

Showing off his ability to chain attacks together, the Dark Knight is essentially a samurai-meets-tank in this FreeFlow Trailer for Batman: Arkham Asylum; seriously, Bane, just pack it up.

Universally compatible with all Wii shooting games, Capcom’s Resident Evil Shot Blaster lets you take out zombies in style with both one-handed and two-handed grip modes.

Ridiculously addictive, your goal in Crush the Castle is to use a trebuchet and increasingly destructive weapons to knock down castles and crush their hapless inhabitants.

BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger Limited Edition includes special packaging, a two-disc soundtrack and video disc; most importantly, it’s a free upgrade and limited to the first run.
