New FIFA Street Trailer Teaches You How to Panna, Embarrass Opponents

FIFA Street Screenshot 2

FIFA Street is probably one of the only games where a prerequisite for winning is to make a complete and utter fool out of your opponents – the old fashioned ‘dribble like a baby, kick like a beast’ method won’t work. If you can’t embarrass them, you’ll have a serious challenge on your hands if you want to win, like climbing a giant slippery slope of football terms and sports-based acrobatics.

This latest video for the game is the key to learning how to succeed, providing you with the must-know tips to scoring more goals in FIFA Street.

True Crime Hong Kong Renamed to Sleeping Dogs, Screenshots, Trailer, ETA Revealed

Sleeping Dogs Game Logo

First things first, this will be the first, last and only time that I use this line in my coverage for Sleeping Dogs because I am a sucker for the obvious cliché – …”let sleeping dogs lie.”

Okay, can we move on now? Good. Pun aside, I do not think we should let ‘Sleeping Dogs’ lie at all. Activision, on the other hand did, and canned the game in February, 2011 (back when it was called True Crime Hong Kong). Thankfully, Square Enix picked up the game from Acti, minus the name rights, hoping to give the market a gritty urban sandbox shooter set in the belching, crime-infested underbelly of Hong Kong.

Along with the new name, Square Enix have also released a trailer, several screenshots and a morsel of story info (which is in the video after the break, I shan’t spoil the surprise for you!).

Own The Planet, See Antarctica in This New SSX Trailer

SSX Screenshot 1

I’ll be honest with you, the idea of snowboarders taking over the world absolutely baffles me ; do those woollen mittens and parkers come with built in uzis or will they simply deafen the world with Swedish house music before robbing all of our coin purses?

Like I said : baffling.

The one place where they do have the clear advantage is the slopes, the giant pale behemoths that put those Twilight vamps to shame (the mountains don’t have glitter, mind you…) In SSX, one of the places that they will attempt to ‘own’ is Antarctica, and this trailer of gameplay footage for the game has grabs, grinds and aerial dreams galore.

Take the First Look at Ghost Recon Future Soldier’s Single Player Mode

In the 1900s when they said that the future would be all hovercars, floating buildings and weather-control machines (even more bizarre predictions here) they were wrong. Of course they were, our society’s inventors can’t even make un-rippable socks!

Instead, the future that we may be faced with actually bears a lot closer to the current futuristic trend in video games with invisibility cloaks, backpack missile launchers and nifty AR eye-patches being the norm. One game that embodies that perfectly is Ghost Recon Future Soldier which is based on some very real, very thought out predictions by top military types and today Ubisoft released the first look at the game’s single player mode.

New FIFA Street Trailer Challenges You to “Free Your Game”

FIFA Street Screenshot 4

EA : makers of good games, supporter of football rights. No, their wish to ‘free your game’ in their upcoming titles FIFA Street will not win them any points with PETA but it will definitely win us gamers over.

The new trailer explores the various different styles of play that each location in the game is home to. Handy if you’re a) interested in seeing what gameplay FIFA Street has to offer and b) if you’ve ever struggled to fit a ball in your suitcase next your flip-flops and vile floral print dress shirts.

MLB 12 : The Show First Look Trailer

MLB 12 The Show Logo

As far as first looks go, this one is at the premier end of the scale. In fact, I’d even go as far as to say that this new trailer for MLB 12 : The Show takes the scale, destroys it, thwacks what’s left with its baseball bat and then pitches the remnants into the stands for good measure.

In true trailer fashion, it boasts “enhanced realism”, but that really didn’t need to be stated as our first taste of in-game footage looks (and even feels) incredible. (Apparently the game also has “full PlayStation move controls” too, which isn’t necessarily something to be proud of so you know, yin and yang).

It’s not the “#1 Rated Sports Game” for nothing.

UFC Undisputed 3 Hits Hard with a Demo, Trailer

UFC Undisputed 3 Screenshot 3

I’m fairly sure that the other day, Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson told us a pack of lies in that trailer for UFC Undisputed 3’s career mode. A fighting game that makes you feel actual feelings?

It must be a load of baloney. The game already has near-perfect gameplay in the ring so to fuse both elements together would be simply ludicrous.

I suppose the only way to test whether or not you’re overcome with emotions handing either Wanderlei Silva or Quinton Jackson’s ass to him, is to download the demo for the game which is out on Xbox 360 and PS3 today  – though I suspect that the only mushy-ness you’ll witness is that of either competitors body tissue once you’ve beaten him to a pulp.

What Everybody Ought to Know About Resident Evil 6

Resident Evil 6 Logo

The Internet was a flutter yesterday when Capcom dropped the massive (if not slightly obvious) bombshell that Resident Evil 6 is in full development but not only that, they also revealed that it will be out in just a matter of months.

Tweets were tweeted, exclamations marks were posted in their thousands and keyboards were smashed furiously in excitement over the news and there’s a strong likelihood that you were one of the many millions of rabid undead enthusiasts who flocked to YouTube to watch the trailer.

However, only so much can be expressed in a 3 and-a-half minute video which is why I’ve put together a round-up of the need to know facts about the game (and yes I’ve included the trailer just in case you want to watch it again!)

Quinton Jackson Introduces UFC Undisputed 3’s Career Mode

UFC Undisputed 3 Logo

What’s the only thing better than a fighting game with more realism than Attenborough’s BBC documentaries? A fighting game with…heart?

I thought you might say that.

THQ have just released the UK trailer for UFC Undisputed 3’s career mode, presented by the UFC’s own Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson, (I suspect that’s not his real name) who seems to be trying to convince you that the story of the game is just as important as knocking the snot out of your opponents’ faces.

Mr Rampage isn’t very convincing, we all know the game’s foundations are that of knuckle pie but the video still offers up some ground-(and pound)-shaking gameplay footage.
