Mass Effect 3 “Take Earth Back”
Two million dead on the first day. Another seven million by the end of the first week. Every defence annihilated.
Their force is coming in for another major city, it's a well coordinated attack. And so far... it's been damned effective. Don't know what they are, what they want, or where they come from. Only one thing is certain. If Shepard doesn't bring help soon...
There won't be an Earth left to save...
Song of the Week – Zelda Medley
Despite my dislike of all things Zelda related I have to admit that this particular medley of tunes from the series of games played masterfully on a violin by one Lindsey Stirling is pretty damned awesome.
It may not be the dance or dubstep you expect from us to help prepare you for the weekend, but it certainly ties in with last week's theme of calm but stirring music! So I suppose we should all break out our Master Swords and turn into wolves and ride some horses and Triforce this bitch up!
Binary Domain trailer
Today's final batch of awesome trailery-ness comes in the form of a cut-scene from Sega's Binary Domain. Featuring kids, and big-ass weapons and more robots it's definitely worth a little look and you can check it out after the jump. It's especially worth a look if you feel the need to fill up your awesome levels so you can get out into the real world.
Max Payne 3 trailer
A second trailer has come our way from Rockstar Games for upcoming Max Payne 3. This particular trailer features a lot of what appears to be in-game footage and a serious voice-over explaining in a serious tone just how serious this serious situation is.
For serious! Why so serious?
*Cough* Anyway, yes check it out after the jump!
Far Cry 3 trailer
I said yesterday that there was going to be a trailer for Far Cry 3 today. And look my friends, look how we have been rewarded! We have been rewarded with a trailer so full of awesome that I can't even begin to express my amazement.
Okay as trailers go it's pretty cool, but it has to be said (and I know I say this pretty often these days) the graphics in this trailer are some of the best I have EVER seen. I mean it, it looks absolutely awesome and can be seen here after the jump!
Song of the Week – Setting Sail and Coming Home
This week we are going all mellow and calming with a live rendition of two of seBastion's pieces of music. That doesn't mean it ain't awesome though! Audio director Darren Korb and vocalist Ashley Barrett play through Setting Sail and Coming Home in a rather lovely rendition of seBastion's music.
Sit back and relax. And maybe consider getting seBastion as it is an absolutely fantastic game (as Tim will attest).
Sleeping Dogs also known as True Crime: Hong Kong
Square Enix have recently announced that they are nearly finished making Sleeping Dogs. A crime based martial arts sort of game that originally existed as True Crime: Hong Kong. In the game you take the role of an undercover police officer Wei Shan who goes around trying to take down the Hong Kong Triads.
With his bare hands!
Minecraft: Day One
In order to make up for my radio silence with the news for the better part of this week I've decided to post even more awesome for you guys to enjoy!
It combines two of my favourite things! Live action fan movies and Minecraft! Boom!
Mass Effect 3 videos launched from the Normandy
Bioware have launched a whole FIVE new videos related to all things Mass Effect 3. They show of the Player Choices, the Co-op multiplayer, the combat and action, the personalisation you can do your guns and your Shepard and the enemies you will be fighting.
I actually haven't watched ANY of them. You see, all the sites I've seen these videos posted on mentions Spoilers (as I am now) and I don't want to spoil any of this great game. That said I thought I ought to tell you folks about them in case you do want to see some of the new stuff. Again, that said I actually had a bit of trouble finding the various videos on Youtube. So I'll just refer you to Eurogamer who have all 5 videos set out in a nice format for you to watch at your discretion! Enjoy!
