Sucker Punch has released a new trailer today for the upcoming Infamous 2.

It’s nice to see them restore Cole to his original appearance.  I have no idea what prompted the complete redesign of his character, espessially given that you can really get connected to a character’s appearance when you play through a whole game.  On a side note, the guy looks identical to my sister’s boyfriend.  Seriously.

Infamous 2 is coming exclusively to Playstation 3.

The Resistance series has been a staple of Sony’s console since the launch day of the Playstation 3.  The original game, Resistance: Fall of Man, was the launch day killer app of the PS3 back in 2006, and its sequel Resistance 2, released around the same time as Xbox 360 big wig Gears of War 2, was able to hold its own and offer players a new experience.

Insomniac Games has announced Resistance 3 today in Germany at GamesCom.

Resistance 3 will come in 2011 exclusive to Playstation 3.

Dead Space 2 Trailer August 17, 2010

EA finally got done twiddling their thumbs after several months and posted up their most recent trailer for Dead Space 2.

This is mostly a bunch of snippets from their live E3 demos, but those demos were so awesome I don’t mind one bit.  You can see some new enemies, new weapons, and new armor for Issac here, on top of some of the new settings he’ll be traveling through, including the Unitologist Church (Unitologist Churches scare the hell out of me).

Dead Space 2 is coming to PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 January 25th, 2011.  PS3 version will include an HD version of Dead Space Extraction for Playstation Move.

New Halo Reach ViDoc from Convention August 17, 2010

Germany is a long way away from where I am, but that doesn’t mean you’re not getting all the news coming out of it.  Bungie released a new ViDoc from Halo Reach today, called “A Spartan Will Rise” and you can check it out right here.

It’s nice to hear Jen Taylor back in action as Cortana, and we finally get to see the famous Dr. Halsey in a Halo game.  She was an essential character to the Halo fiction presented in the books, and she has been seen in the Halo Legends movie, but this is her first game appearance.

This one reminds me a lot of a similar ViDoc, I believe it was “Desperate Measures”, for Halo 3 ODST where Nathan Fillion introduced all the new members of the ODST squad.

Halo Reach is coming Sepetember 14th, 2010 only for the Xbox 360.

Halo Waypoint Coming to Windows Phone 7 August 17, 2010

I make it no secret my favorite feature of the Xbox 360 is the Halo Waypoint. It’s not even a year old and it’s been giving me a huge incentive to dust off my old Halo games and get achievements I missed out on.

Well the it was announced tonight on Xbox live, the popular software is coming to Windows Phone 7.

You’ll be able to log in to your live account, track your waypoint awards, read the latest news, and stream all the exclusive waypoint videos all from your phone, the same day the phone releases, at no charge.

Unfortunately this is only coming to Windows Phone 7 right now, even though after getting a look at it I’m sure a Droid or iPhone could run it.

Anyone having Live Anywhere flashbacks? There is currently no release date for Windows Phone 7.
