A Game of Aliens

 It's been a while since I've watched any of the Alien movies. It's been too long since I've seen Ripley destroy some alien Queen ass with a power lifter. With the upcoming Prometheus movie, directed by Ridley Scott, taking place in the same universe, I've already had Alien on my mind. Now Gearbox, who you'll remember created the game Borderlands and revived Duke Nukem Forever, is bringing us Aliens: Colonial Marines. They've put out a pre- E3 teaser to get our alien juices flowing, which is gross and awesome at the same time.

Dead Island Trailer Generates Buzz

I'd been hearing about this trailer for the upcoming game, Dead Island, for about a week, but I didn't take the time to watch it until it was mentioned on The Totally Rad Show yesterday. In a short amount of time this 3 minute, cinematic trailer has caused quite a stir on the internet. There were even some rumors (which have been dispelled) about the rights being sold for a film adaptation with only a trailer out so far. It seems there is some definite interest in taking this story to the big screen, but can the game live up to this much hype?

The Real Bioshock Returns

After I played through the recent Bioshock sequel, I thought I was ready to be done with Bioshock altogether. After an incredible first game and a passable sequel, I couldn't imagine another game in that world. Anything they could have come up with would have only seemed redundant in my mind. Rapture has been explored as much as anyone could have hoped for. Hell, I was fine with them ending the story with the first Bioshock. As of today I have changed my mind, because Bioshock has left the ocean behind for the air. Check out the trailer after the break.

Tron 2 becomes Tron Legacy

Disney had their 3D panel at Comic Con yesterday. In addition to the Alice in Wonderland teaser they also released a new teaser for Tron2, which has been retitled Tron Legacy. I love the original Tron but it deffinately looks dated. This new teaser shows that they knew how to upgrade the look of Tron without losing what made it cool. I for one am super excited to see this in IMAX 3D. Check out the trailer after the jump.
