Rather than getting on Steam and playing gobs of classic Aliens vs. Predator leading up to the game’s almost assured (though still ” unconfirmed “) February launch, wouldn’t you rather spend the next three-ish minutes watching the folks at Rebellion speak about the history behind both games’ development? We knew you’d see it our way! Regardless, the trailer you see above does plenty in the way of explaining the near-direct connection between the original game and the upcoming release.

Hey buddy, you like guns, right? Lots of guns? Good! The newest Mass Effect 2 trailer is meant just for you, then — packed from top to bottom with bullets and explosives, lead gameplay designer Christina Norman discusses the gun-centric proclivities of the Soldier class

Given that the entirety of Metro 2033 is set in a bleak, subway-based future — Moscow’s subway system of 2033, specifically — it’s not exactly an outright lie when we say the trailer is “from the future.” Sure, it might not have “traveled through time” or whatever your “fact-based” interpretation of our statement was, but it’s of a fictional post-apocalyptic world and that’s more than enough for us. Heck, there’s talk of the next evolution of human beings even. That’s about as futurey as you could possibly want, right?!

The acquisition of Eidos by Japanese publisher Square Enix earlier this year brought with it some strange consequences. Aside from the obvious Tomb Raider / Final Fantasy crossover that we all know is bound to happen , the above trailer for Just Cause 2 ends with a glaring Square Enix logo that still feels a bit out of place to us. Maybe it’s the theme of deposing a South East Asian dictator, the pronounced “Engrish,” and the musclebound American protagonist in the trailer — or maybe it’s just us being weird! Who knows?! We do know that the gameplay itself looks like a ripe barrel of monkeys and we’re looking forward to its release on March 23, 2010
Would you believe us if we told you that Koei’s first Dynasty Warriors Strikeforce trailer had to brutally slice its way through an army 1,000 strong to arrive where you see it today, resting atop this post? It’s the truth! It joined up with three friends online to “infiltrate heavily-armed enemy strongholds” and “slay dragons” and … oh, who’re we kidding

One of the biggest surprises to come out of TGS 2009 is the presence of Crackdown 2 — and it’s playable! While the Ruffian Games developed sequel was only just announced at E3 , Microsoft decided to let press in Tokyo step into an early build of the new Pacific City. Some textures were missing, and a few glitches popped up, but it was to be expected in what we were told was a game “roughly at 60 percent” complete. Stay tuned, we’ll post our impressions soon, along with an interview with Ruffian lead designer Steve Iannetta.

If there was ever any doubt in your mind that the enemies in upcoming third person planet finder shooter Lost Planet 2 are on the plus-size of things, the flood of assets coming out of the Tokyo Game Show should assure you of their huge-itude . Though we’re only treated to a few scant glimpses in the trailer above, some of the beasts on display in the screens Capcom released are large-building-sized. The kind of big where you get that falling feeling in your stomach just from looking at them

The PAX ‘09 Omegathon wraps up later today, but last night, we snagged some footage of the third round, which was dedicated to Nathan Fillion: The Game Halo 3: ODST . Three teams of four faced off in the new Firefight mode, with the top two teams advancing to the next round.
