News New Tomb Raider Reboot Trailer Will Get You Hyped As Hell... Until The Release Date Pops Up
Square Enix has released a CG trailer for the new Tomb Raider game and it looks phenomenal
We absolutely adore the tone of the game — the lone survivor theme is fascinating. We also went in expecting to hate Lara Croft's voice — how can you better Keeley Hawes? — but we actually really like the voice actor. The biggest problem with this...

News Uncharted 3's Collector's Edition Is Pretty Weak, Will Save You Money
You'd think that a release as big as Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception would command the very best collector's edition Sony could muster

News The Weapons In Resistance 3 Are Chunky
Insomniac's released a new batch of multiplayer footage for Resistance 3
The first thing we noticed about the gameplay is just how chunky all the weapons sound. Everything from the standard assault rifle to magnum (with Resistance 2's exploding bullets) sound deadly. It's a far-cry from the previous game's rather tepid feeling arsenal. The new...
E3 2011 The Darkness II's New Visual Style Looks Great
When we first heard The Darkness was getting a sequel, we were a bit like, "Yeah whatever?" We liked the original game a fair amount, but never considered it a classic like many others do

If a trailer's designed to get you hyped about a product then we suppose this Saints Row: The Third CG teaser is a triumph
