Oren Lavie’s “Her Morning Elegance” is literally oozing with creativity; part of his Opposite Side of the Sea album, it’s a twist on spending the whole day in bed. Thanks, Conan!

Humans take on the role of space invaders in Planet 51, an animated movie with astronauts landing in an alien planet that looks a bit like 1950s America; it’s due out 11/20/09.

Proof that you don’t need gobs of CPU power and memory to rock out, D-Pad Hero is a sweet little 256KB ROM that runs on a NES emulator; think Guitar Hero or Rock Band in 8-bit.

Most of the free games we feature are quick and dirty, but Divine Generals is a strategy game a-la Civilization with armies, buildings and research; in short, plan on a long lunch break.

The plot for Red Faction gets a comprehensive workup in the full trailer above; we’re most impressed by its cinematic qualities, which are on par with previews we’d see in a movie theater.

Based off a successful 2006 novel, we like the quirky feel of this trailer for The Damned United; it chronicles the short and largely disastrous tenure of Leeds United coach Brian Clough.

We’re not sure how long this trailer will stay up, so get it while it’s hot: this latest Star Trek trailer offers a few snippets of a bruised Kirk and the Enterprise with guns ablazin’.

Just in time for today’s big game, Blood Bowl has finally dropped a full trailer; nothing mind blowing here, but tons of bone crunching; who knew dwarves had a running game?
