Awesome Software

After an awesome but cryptic teaser, Modern Warfare 2 finally gets its big reveal; from Brazilian ghettos and medieval redoubts to Russian airbases, this trailer is utterly fantastic.

With ziplines, chasms and ropes, this multiplayer trailer for Damnation hypes its verticality as a game changer; special modes and maps take advantage of its 3D nature.

This trailer for Battlefield: Bad Company 2 shows how it’s done: it demos its multiplayer features in one hand and blows the ever-loving crap out of everything in the other. Thanks, Jake!

Now available: Google Chrome 2 throws in a few nice features like autofill and a more flexible tab page, but stays true to its speedy roots by boosting JavaScript performance by 30%.

This gameplay trailer for X3: Terran Conflict is an unexpected crowd-pleaser, with hordes of ships, the combat and the Battlestar Galactica-style cinematography and music.

As short and sweet as the name, this debut trailer for Blur goes from zero to obnoxious in about twenty seconds; as Kotaku quips, it’s less a teaser trailer and more a “taser” trailer.

The wisecracking Deadpool is remarkably silent in this Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2 trailer, but he doesn’t need words: he lets his fists, grenades and dual-wielded pistols do the talking.

Described as “Zelda in Hell,” this Darksiders trailer reveals a familiar plotline (Heaven and Hell do battle on Earth); still, we hope the action-oriented RPG could be what Hellgate never was.

From folks who brought us Ico and Shadow of the Colossus, this internal trailer for Project Trico shows promise with faint echoes of The Neverending Story’s Falkor and Atreyu.

It’s been awhile, but the second Timeline trailer for The Old Republic is up (here’s the first); an unlikely ally in the criminal world helps to lift the Mandalorian blockade on Coruscant.

Like kids with matches and gasoline, the Spore devs invite the jokesters at Robot Chicken to create their own Galactic Adventures; bananas in dresses and farting frogs, anyone?

It’s amazing what a little voice work, a sweet soundtrack and anti-aliasing can do, but this launch trailer for Terminator: Salvation has our hopes way up for the game; it’s out today.

We like this new trailer for Resonance of Fate (aka End of Eternity), but it seems to be a bit too American: the last half is filled with fast action sequences and the heavy metal-ish music.

Pirate Defense is yet another tower defense game (and not much of a looker), but gets interesting once you use traps; it takes some getting used to, but is worth the Yarrs and Arghhs.

We initially thought all this ginormous custom Halo PC map of Hyrule needed to be perfect was Link, but it looks like they’ve got that covered, too at 1:06; truly epic, ARKaMAN.

We almost wet ourselves watching this fantastic gameplay trailer for Uncharted 2, set in a war-torn city; Drake’s actions are so expertly blended into the game it feels like a movie.

Spoiler alert: this Meet the Spy video is our favorite out of the other “Meet the…” videos for Team Fortress 2; we won’t ruin the ending, but watch every character closely for their tells.

While it doesn’t show us everything we want to see, this Mass Effect 2 Prelude in advance of E3 gives away just enough with an emphasis on intense combat and a darker storyline.

Get those credit cards out 5/19, because this launch trailer should put those of you on the fence about Bionic Commando over the edge with awesome music and a swinging montage.

Capcom drops an early Xmas gift with Encyclopedia Gigantica, a must for Monster Hunter: Freedom Unite players; it’s unfinished but will fill up before the game’s June release.

This How the West Was Won video for Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood is how trailers should be done: it starts off with cutscenes and finishes with plenty of gunslingin’ in-game action.

Get ready to wet yourself with this 9 minute Hunting the Big Sister trailer; it’s narrated by BioShock 2’s Creative Director and talks about Little Sister adoption and long walks in the ocean.

Get a peek at Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (game) roster above with both in-game and standalone renders; we’re digging camo-jet Breakaway and the hulking Long Haul.
