The Trailers for Next Week's MvC3 DLC

Jill & Shuma-Gorath are out next week as Marvel vs. Capcom 3 DLC so here's their trailers below. Keep in mind, there's a code for them if you bought the Collector's Edition as those that don't have them, Capcom didn't have anything to set regarding the final prices for these two characters. We'll probably find out about that tomorrow or later this week.

Today's GDC '11 Roundup

So more news are still coming out of GDC as here's a little recap of the words & whispers from the event today.

• Mortal Kombat getting a demo next week for Playstation Plus owners and a week later for normal PSN owners. Yay for fighting game demos are actually coming out for download! I don't know if I would cave in for a Plus account, so I could wait a week unless there are ways getting it elsewhere. Sub-Zero, Scorpion, Mileena, and Johnny Cage are the playable characters along with two stages and single/local versus modes.
• Dead Island is an open world action RPG... expect more previews to roll out in the coming days to see if it is living up to the amazing trailer that came out a week or two ago and being a trending topic on Twitter for two days.
• Resistance 3 multiplayer previews are out in the wild. Yup another high-profile shooter hoping to compete against the juggernauts Call of Duty and Battlefield, but will the third time be the charm for Sony and Insomniac?. They also diminished the player count, which makes sense I guess for what they're going for. A multiplayer beta is planned for Playstation Plus subscribers sometime in the summer before the game's release in the fall.
• I didn't mention this yesterday, but as expected, there's a Mario game coming to the 3DS. Pictures show a 3D Mario game since it is made by the Galaxy team, so high hopes are up for them to deliver the goods once again. Also, they teased the return of a tail (either the raccoon suit or the tanooki), so there's flying elements I guess. Nintendo says to expect more about this Mario game at E3.
• I didn't get the new issue yet, but the new Game Informer's cover story is Saint's Row: The Third. The Saint's Row franchise to me is pretty much the real current-gen Grand Theft Auto even though I appreciated the more mature, story-driven direction in GTA4). Those games were able to keep the fun and insanity of the PS2 GTA games as I'm expecting to see this third one continue that same direction.

That's it for now - more hopefully later.

Zelda: Skyward Sword is Well... Still a Zelda Game

During Iwata's GDC Keynote this morning, he revealed a new trailer for Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword which finally shows new stuff from new levels, characters, and so on. I'm still not sure about the Wii Motion Plus sword controls even though it puts a "new" spin into the combat, but then again I'm not as excited for this game as I thought I would be. Its still a Zelda game, which is still cool and all, but its starting to become too little, too late for me regarding the classic formula they keep refreshing on every iteration. Also, this is the only reason I'm keeping my Wii, so this better be good whenever it comes out this year.

Get Ready to Flip the Fighting Script with MK's Challenge Tower...

Mortal Kombat's Challenge Tower mode is among some of the most insane things I have seen in a fighting game. The fighting script will change dramatically once you delve into this tower with the stipulations and obstacles Netherrealm Games will throw at you. Fighting with no arms, no head, no jumps, flaming floors, and killing waves of zombies are just examples of what to expect here. I'll let the video above explain more about it though, but this is nuts. Mortal Kombat is still coming out next month and looking pretty good so far.

One Shooter Already Leaving Its Mark...

Just watch the latest Battlefield 3 trailer above and I'll let it speak for itself. All I have to say is the shooter landscape has now changed again and BF3 is ready to take down the competition.
