The Last of Us – Extended Red Band Trailer

The-Last-Of-Us-Screen-10

During the U.S. airing of the huge The Walking Dead season 3 finale, the first TV spot for Naughty Dog’s The Last of Us was shown (and what exposure with potentially over a dozen million watching!)

Now the extended, red band version of that trailer has been released, initially exclusive to the The Last of Us Amazon store page. We have embedded it at the bottom of this article – being a red band trailer, there are some very graphic depictions of violence therein, so be warned. We’ve also included the aforementioned original shortened ad for comparison’s sake, directly below. Enjoy!

Blu-Ray and Manga Bundle for Blood Lad

Blood-Lad-Bundle-Screen-1Coming up is the 10th limited-edition volume of the manga “Blood Lad’ by artist Yuki Kodama, this limited-edition will bundle the latest volume of the manga and a blu-ray disc that will feature an episode based off of “that” manga chapter. The episode that comes with it will be exclusive to that bundle seeing as it will NOT be shown in the upcoming Blood Lad television series.  This is a limited purchase, pre-orders are only open until the 17th of September.

Ok, so, if you don’t know the plot but still show an interest for this let me break it down a bit for you: We have Staz, he’s a vampire and a boss of a section in the Demon World. Cool. Now Staz doesn’t care much for human blood, he’s actually more interested, let’s say obsessed, with Japanese Culture. Enter Yanagi Fuyumi  a Japanese teen who somehow wanders into the Demon World, Staz is pretty happy about this. He goes to meet her but is interrupted by a bit of a scuffle over turf and poor Fuyumi is killed and begins wandering around as a ghost. Staz, being disappointed, promises that he will find a way to resurrect her and that’s where our adventure starts.

If you’re a fan go and check out the “Blood Lad” Summer Anime Promo trailer here.

Those that remember Poker Night at the Inventory will probably remember most how it slammed 4 completely different properties into one game based around a club under a warehouse filled with video games. Telltale Games seems to be at it again with 4 new card players and whole host of other cameos with Telltale Games’ Poker Night 2.

The opponent players in the new game can be seen above, and as if they need any introduction are from left to right; Claptrap from Borderlands, Ashley J. Williams from Army of Darkness, Brock Samson from Venture Bros., and Sam from Sam and Max. Plus, to keep it from being an all male cast GLaDOS from Portal will be present as well ensure a fair game, most likely with the threat of deadly neurotoxin.

This time around players can expect a variety of “Bounty Unlocks” for other games for achieving things in Poker Night 2, though it gets a little complicated as the game will release for PC and Mac from Steam, XBLA, and PSN, so to clear up what is available for which they’ve provided a helpful page on their website HERE to keep it straight forward.

Telltale Games’ Poker Night 2 will be released in late April for Steam, XBLA, and PSN, but players can watch the trailer embedded below now.

Today Viz Media has announced that they will be partnering up with Diamond Comic Distributors to help bring various pieces of Japanese merchandise overseas to North America. This includes various action figures, toys and collectables from Viz’s hit titles such as Naruto, Bleach, Berserk, Tiger & Bunny, Death Note, and InuYasha.

The announcement noted that all of the merchandise that is being brought over has never been available for purchase outside of Japan due to various licensing issues, so fans should expect most, if not all, of the merchandise that comes out in the future to be brand new.

Neither Viz nor Diamond went into detail regarding when fans can expect these products to start showing up but it was mentioned that everything will be available for pre-order in future issues of Diamond’s “PREVIEWS” catalog or purchased at your local comic shop.

John Parker, Diamond’s Vice President of New Business Development had the following to say regarding their partnership with Viz:

“From the top entertainment districts of Tokyo’s Akihabara to Harajuku and beyond, many great licensed products from the top anime and manga brands will now be available for fans to purchase outside of Japan. We are excited by the potential and even more thrilled to introduce some of the best-of-Japan merchandise to North American consumers.”

First Trailer for Jane Jenson’s Moebius

moebius-01

There hasn’t been much for news since Jane Jenson’s new studio Pinkerton Road reached its Kickstarter goal for Moebius back in May of last year as they’ve been hard at work on the game. However, they’ve finally put together a trailer to show off the game world and introduce main character Malachi Rector.

A antique expert with a photographic memory and extensive knowledge of history, Malachi Rector specializes in dating antiquities and outing fakes and forgeries. The game however will not follow Malachi on an antiques-centric adventure, instead being hired to utilize his special skills to look into a murder. The job gets complicated however as his talents become useful to a number of different secret agencies and comes across a man in the middle of it.

Currently in alpha, backers from the Kickstarter are privy to its current build to give feedback and makes decisions as production continues. Non-backers can find out more about the game by watching the trailer embedded below and/or checking out the new website for Moebius that just went live HERE.

Moebius will be coming out sometime this year, 2013, for PC, Mac, Linux, and iPad.

We’ve seen a little of what Killer is Dead has to offer so far, however nowhere has it ever been said that things will be going to such an extent as this latest trailer has revealed. In this video from Famitsu (that features English subtitles) we see that not only will Mondo Zappa have to deal with normal enemies, but he will also have to face off against giant aliens and more as the Earth comes under attack.

You can check the video out below and keep an eye out for Killer is Dead sometime this Summer when it is released in North America by XSEED Games.

Focus Home Reveals Creepy Watson: The Return Video

Back in 2008 a video went up on YouTube showing off the amazing skills of Doctor Watson in the demo of Sherlock Holmes Nemesis. The impressiveness coming from Watson’s unparalleled ninja skills that allow him to move from point to point without a step, noise, or even ninja smoke. The video eventually drummed up a good number of views reaching up to 2 million as of today, which players can watch HERE.

Unfortunately, in later games the skills of Doctor Watson have gone the way of the Dodo, with full articulated “motion” and “walking cycles”.  Needless to say, fan outcry was outrageous. To make up for this, developer Frogwares Games and publisher Focus Home Interactive have included an option to utilize the 2006 Doctor Watson and released a new video showing off that Doctor Watson in the newest Sherlock Holmes title Crimes & Punishments.

Check out the video embedded below to see just how it stacks up with the original Creepy Watson. Look like criminals will have more to fear than just Sherlock.

Pokemon-X-Y-Screen-1
Stay tuned this week because, like the title says, we’ve got some big Pokemon X and Y news headed this way. This Saturday which is April 6th the company states that “big” news will be revealed regarding the two games coming out for the 3DS. Information on X and Y have been limited, we know there’s a game, we know there are new Pokemon, we know it’s in 3D and that’s kind of it but the rumor is that they’re bringing “significant changes” to the games. As of right now I can’t even begin to speculate  but if the Poke-Devs say it’s big, I’d like to believe it’s going to be big!

Drop us a line in the comment section below and let us know what you think these changes could be or even if you have any ideas or speculation on the upcoming games. Don’t be shy, we don’t bite…much.
