Rock of Ages trailer plows into the Statue of David’s privates

Not a whole lot to say about this one other than that it looks to take the prize for most unique game coming out next year. The good people at ACE Team have released a new trailer for the upcoming Rock of Ages. ACE Team is known for developing Zeno Clash and is now looking to make a splash, or should I say crash with their next game.

Take a look below to see for yourself this unique game of destruction. The game itself will be releasing on the PSN, PC, and 360 in Spring 2011.

Fist of the North Star descends on the demo market October 19th

Ready to see just how much blood is inside the human body? Or at least within a body inside of the Fist of the North Star universe? Then you are in luck as Tecmo Koei has announced that Fist of the North Star: Ken’s rage will be getting a demo release on the PS3 and 360 next week on October 19th.

The demo itself will contain two levels of playability and allow players to choose between Ken and Rei as they go through the level popping enemies like overfilled blood sacks. As you can imagine, blood will be everywhere but I digress. The game itself will be hitting shelves on November 2nd with it’s full cast of selectable characters and the rest of the stages. So if you are on the fence about this game, or looking to satisfy your Fist of the North star itch, get ready to get the demo.

Red Dead Redemption Undead Nightmare brings the four horses of the apocalypse

Zombies are one thing, but taking the four horses of the apocalypse and throwing them into the game all in one set of DLC? That is definitely a sealed deal for me. Rockstar has announced that the horses of the apocalypse will be available within the Undead Nightmare DLC, and you can see them above; Pestilence, Famine, Death, and War.

Each horse possesses their own special abilities which you can see below:

  • Death: With Hell following close behind, Death carries with him a violent wake that rattles through the skulls of the undead, causing a spectacular cranial explosion for any zombie it comes in contact with.
  • Famine: Attracting a swarm of insects wherever it travels, Famine’s thin shadowy frame and crimson eyes mask an everlasting stamina.
  • Pestilence: A ghastly harbinger of plague and disease that’s easily identifiable by its exposed wounds and ocular hemorrhaging, Pestilence possesses an exceptionally high pain threshold.
  • War: Given power to take peace from the earth, the fiery red horse known as War ignites a trail of flame upon all those in its path, turning the living and the undead alike into smoldering ash.

The Undead Nightmare DLC will be available on October 26th for the Xbox 360 and the PS3.

King of Fighters 2002: Unlimited Match getting western release in Autumn 2010

Are modern day fighters letting you down? Not giving you that classic feel anymore? Well you are in luck because SNK has just announced on their Facebook page that they are bringing back the updated arcade fighter King of Fighters 2002 Unlimited Match. KoF UM will be coming to the XBLA sometime in Autumn of this year. But we are already in Autumn, so that is a good sign that the game will be available within the next month or so.

There hasn’t really been a set price, but previous games from SNK featuring their KoF series looks to place the price for this one at 800 MSP ($10). There will be over 66 different playable characters to choose from, and the fighters and the stages themselves will be similar to the arcade version, while the menus, amount of characters, and game modes. But don’t fret the graphics have also been severely upgraded and there have been new attacks added to each character’s arsenal.

Vanquish – Battle Suit Trailer

We’ve seen the enemies of Vanquish, and we have seen the weapons weapons in Vanquish as well.Now it is time to check out the battle suit.The suit that makes all the magic happen.

The funniest thing I find about the entire trailer, is that they call the armor: “The A.R.S. Battle Suit”. The reason I find this funny, is that my current(and first) indie game in development is codenamed “ARS”.

Check out the short trailer so see more of the suit for yourself.Vanquish releases on October 19th in North America, October 21st in Japan and October 22nd in Europe.

Maddox from Gun Loco Revealed

Gun Loco is a third-person shooter which takes place on a far-off prison planet where the contestants fight to the death in an attempt to escape from the sadistic confines of Gun Loco’s relentless killing floor.

This video shows off one of the characters from the game, as well as some gameplay. I’m sure there will even be more insane characters to debut in the future; did you see that bunny? Gun Loco is an Xbox 360 exclusive releasing in November 2010.

Check out the video below, while you wait a month. Though, I don’t think the video could possibly last you that long.

Pre-Order characters announced for Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood

Nothing says subtle like running around in a jester outfit to spark fear into all those already filled with clown phobia. But then again he also just tears into any enemies that he sees. Sure he may be brutal with those double daggers but what about the secret killing? Then again we have the Officer now that uses something akin to a sword with a spear tip at the end.

But beyond how subtle or unsubtle these two may be, they can only be obtained through pre-ordering from a specific place. This means that depending on your favorite way of assassinating people you may be either choosing to pre-order from Gamestop or HMV to receive the Harlequin character as a pre-order bonus. Or if you don’t want to be playing as him, you can choose to pre-order from Best Buy or GAME and get the Officer as your special bonus.

The Harlequin also comes with the Aqueduct mission bonus, while the Officer comes with the Trajan Market bonus. Better hurry with your pre-orders because Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood will be out on November 16th in the US and the 19th for the UK.
