The Trailers shown at the Spike VGAs...

The Spike TV Video Game Awards are going on now here at the West Coast and while the awards aspect is laughable in terms of who won, the major attraction is the exclusive trailers of some of the hottest games for the next year. One of the big trailers being shown is another teaser for God of War III (above) and it looks good for being a tease of more Kratos ownage. Other big trailers are below.



Grand Theft Auto IV: The Lost and Damned is the first major DLC for Rockstar's fourth entry in the GTA franchise. While it is more GTA IV than just Niko starring this bike gang, it is coming out on February 17, the same day as Street Fighter IV, and it is likely taking a pass for a while. Exclusively on Xbox Live, I think this new storyline is a good enough reason to return to Liberty City one more time despite GTA IV being somewhat overrated (more on that soon in a later blog post).



Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is next up and it looks as good as the first game in which now Nathan Drake is transversing through snow and if you want to read more on what's new, check out the new Game Informer issue with this game on the cover. In this trailer above, looks like Drake is in a bad spot inside a falling bus.



Finally, Brutal Legend still lives!!! The next game by Double Fine (The folks that brought you Grim Fandango and Psychonauts) now has a publisher, which is EA as expected. Considering Double Fine's pedigree, this game is going to be good no matter what.
