Dead Space 2 Halo Jump Video Released

This is but a teaser and using deadly theatrical music hints at what we already know, there will be a massacre here. Dead Space 2 is expected to release January 25th, 2011 for PS3, Xbox 360, and Windows PC and is the second flagship title in the series that brought survival horror into outer space and dismemberment via hand-made weaponry.

Plants vs. Zombies Gets an XBLA Release Trailer

Plants vs. Zombies, that whacky tower-defense-like game that everyone loves is making its way to the Xbox Live Arcade this week, tomorrow more specifically. Along with launch week comes a release trailer, which you will find below. So, who is going to pick up PvZ on the XBLA? I prefer the touch controls of the iPhone or iPad version, but if you don’t have those devices and don’t enjoy PC gaming, this is the chance for you. So, care to purchase this nice home, which seems to also retain the rotted eyes of the zombie clan?

Record of Agarest War 2 Gets Its Second Promotional Video

Compile Heart, the dirty minds behind the Record of Agarest War franchise, have unveiled a second promotional video for the upcoming sequel to the original game. The original title surprisingly got a release as a T-rated game in North America, for both the PS3 and Xbox 360, so hopefully we’ll see the second game here eventually – it is an underrated strategy RPG franchise. Yes, I’m asking you to look beyond the sexy anime girls and focus on the game play, which is something this video doesn’t allow you to do very well.

We see some decent game play footage here, as well as some other aspects of Record of Agarest War 2, including a sensual massage mini-game. You heard me. You want this game now, don’t you? This video is not nearly as suggestive as the screens I posted up last week, but it gives you a decent idea of the vibe behind these titles if you have no idea what they are. Check it out after the break!

Hands-On Preview: Atelier Rorona – The Alchemist of Arland

Atelier Rorona is a title I’ve been looking forward to for a while. I’ve played previous entries in the Atelier franchise, and have been enthralled with the depth of game play from such a simple concept as combining two or more items to make something new. While this certainly isn’t the only franchise that places the ancient art of alchemy up on such a high pedestal, it is one of the most notable. That tradition continues in North America this fall with the release of Atelier Rorona: The Alchemist of Arland, the first venture of the franchise into the realm of the current generation of consoles, and 3D visuals.

The good people at NIS America were kind enough to toss us a preview disc of the game, which is a PlayStation 3 exclusive developed by Gust. I’ve had the chance to play through several hours of the game at this point and thought I’d throw together some early impressions to get you started, until our entire review is complete.
