Over at Europe, the Lepzig Games Convention is happening now and there's some new footage for the upcoming releases.
Since I'm still on a Bionic Commando mood (Rearmed is still amazing!!), here's the newest trailer for the 3D game now with old-school Capcom intro music (also in Street Fighter IV too), the orchestral BC theme, and new gameplay of single-player and multiplayer. Thanks to Rearmed, this game has crept to my top 10 Most Wanted list and I think it will be awesome.
The highly anticipated Heavy Rain makes another showing at Lepzig after its closed door appearance at E3. This new trailer is actually looking amazing as it demonstrates the quicktime events that the developers had used with their last game, Indigo Prophecy. Expect this one to be one of the big hits of 2009.
Another year and another Need for Speed game, but this time it might be good since the last good NFS game to me was Most Wanted. NFS Undercover comes out on November 18with more intense racing and great FMV looking cutscenes starring Maggie Q (Mission Impossible III, Balls of Fury, Live Free or Die Hard). Doesn't mean I'll buy it, but since EA Black Box said they had more time with this one compared to Carbon and ProStreet, Undercover might bring back the series to greatness.
Another EA game ramps up the talent of actors and actresses, this time with Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3. The cast is almost a who's who of actors we seen in TV shows and movies. Try to see who can you recognize from this trailer, its madness.
360 fan favorite Dead Rising (I liked this game too) is coming to the Wii with motion controls and graphics based on Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition. Supposedly, the save system is fixed and other changes are there too. I won't mind playing Dead Rising again if the controls are good enough, and plus Wii has pretty much nothing I'm looking forward for except MadWorld.
Speaking of MadWorld, here's the newest trailer and yes, this game is almost the saving grace for Wii owners who were disappointed by the lack of Nintendo games for the upcoming year (Animal Crossing, Wii Music). Sure, this game is violent as hell with the Sin City-like style and lots of blood, but another game like this is needed on the Wii even though more controversy may spark.
A new level is shown for Mirror's Edge to prove the game is not all skyscraper jumping, where Fayth tries to escape a facility with snipers trying to take her out. Yesh, people will be skeptical of the first-person experience and the red path of here's the way to go thing, but this game could be something special and another of 2009's games to watch out for.
Fallout 3 is out on October 28, a week after Fable 2, which means RPG fans will be busy for the rest of the year, but I'm surprised how close those two are from each other release-wise which may cause fans of the genre to pick either or, but might as well get both since they are great RPGs. They might as well play the hell out of Fable 2 and then go crazy with Fallout 3.
The new Prince of Persia is looking good as always with this new seven minute clip of the same level seen at E3 and Comic-Con.
More clips later.

Nice taste in games, G Unit Ver1. We've definitely got similar tastes. Are you interested in Resident Evil 5 too?
I hope you don't mind me commenting on your blog, by the way. What system do you think you're going to get these games on? Do you have both a 360 and PS3? If you don't, you should take a look at this Stacker 2 contest going on. All you need to do to enter is design a 6 Hour Power t-shirt (which is surprisingly easy to do online). Right now there are less than 185 entrants, so you have to like the odds... Check out the details here: http://www.brickfish.com/Entertainment/Stacker2?tab=overview
You can also win a copy of Rise of the Argonauts, a year's supply of 6 Hour Power energy shots, and more. I work with 6HP so if you have any questions feel free to send me an e-mail. Let me know if you enter the contest too, and I'll definitely vote for your design. By the way, I hope you don't mind me commenting on your blog. Good luck.
