Watch and enjoy the cinematic trailer for Star Wars: The Old Republic! This is the upcoming MMO from Bioware and Lucas Arts. Bioware, the company that brought us amazing Star Wars games in the last with Knights of the Old Republic, and Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords!

I know there is no actual gameplay footage in this video, but I couldn’t care less. This is enough for me…for now at least. Like many other things at E3, there are not many details available yet or a release date, but you can be sure to see them here, once they’re available. What we do know so far is that the story takes place before all 6 movies; around 3,500 years before then to be more precise.

Sit back, watch the trailer, and wait. I know I’ll be waiting. There’s nothing I’d like more than to play an MMO with millions of other people, in the Star Wars universe.

This is the trailer for Splinter Cell Conviction that premiered yesterday at E3 2009 during the Xbox 360 Press Conference.

I have to say, this trailer and gameplay video actually makes me want to get back into the series. I loved the first two Splinter Cell games, but after that, I got a little bored. I’ve always enjoyed a game that makes you use a little wit, patience, and skill. This time Sam Fisher is out for revenge, and I’d like to help him out by picking up the controller and bashing some heads.

Make sure you watch the trailer, and please, don’t forget to check out the gameplay video below, it’s worth the time!

Halo: Reach was revealed at E3 2009 today, and all we got was this teaser trailer. At least it’s a good tease. Halo: Reach takes us back to the beginning, and the downfall of the Human colony. There are not too many details about the game yet, but when there are, you can be sure to get them here.

Left 4 Dead 2 E3 2009If you’re not watching G4TV’s live coverage of E3 2009, or if you’re not reading the million blogs covering the show, then you missed the premiere of the Left 4 Dead 2 trailer! Fear not, zombie lovers! The trailer is right here!

So the trailer was shown, but not much detail was given about the game. The graphics look totally different than Left 4 Dead. Now they look way more cartoon like, and reminds me a lot of Team Fortress 2. I’m not sure if that’s a good thing, or a bad thing. Then again, it was just a teaser trailer; no actual gameplay footage.

Left 4 Dead 2 is set for release on November 17th, 2009 for the Xbox 360 and PC. Watch the debut teaser trailer below!

This is the trailer for LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4. Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Batman, and now Harry Potter. I’m not sure why they only did Years 1-4. They should have just done all 7 years with one go. I guess then they wouldn’t be able to release and sell two separate games.

Personally, I’ve never played any of the LEGO games. I won’t even touch the Harry Potter movie based games. I’m not saying the LEGO games are bad; it is actually kind of cool to see the Harry Potter characters in LEGO form. Just read the books though, that’s where the real goods are.

Dead Rising 2 E3 2009 Trailer Here’s a little something for those who cannot stand to wait one more day for E3 2009. It’s an early trailer for Dead Rising 2!

With Dead Rising 2 officially announced back in February, the masses have been eagerly awaiting it’s arrival. I’m pretty sure we can all assume the game will be a success. People love killing zombies, and by looking at the pictures and trailers already released, you can see this game is all about that.

There is no official release date yet, but there is talk about multiplayer. Imagine you and a couple friends, running around, slaying zombies, fighting for survival. That sounds like a good, family fun. Watch the trailer below, and be sure to check back for more E3 2009 coverage all week!

This is the first teaser for Toy Story 3 from Disney and Pixar! If you grew up back in the 90’s, like myself, you’re probably excited about this. Toy Story was really the first big computer-animated movie, and it started the whole animated craze. I doubt we’d have movies like WALL-E, The Incredibles, or Finding Nemo today without Toy Story and it’s success.

As you can see from the video, Toy Story 3 is currently set for release on June 18th, 2010!

Surrogates TrailerSurrogates stars Bruce Willis as an FBI agent of all things, and he’s investigating a murder. That’s the basic story, but I’m not really interested in that. What I’m interested in, are the surrogates.

A surrogate is a robot. Sounds cool, but there’s more. The robot is a perfect copy of yourself, and you can live vicariously through them. You wake up in the morning, lay down in the super, high tech control lounge, and you go online. Your surrogate comes to life, you stay in your home, and the surrogate goes out and acts for you.

Everything sounds great. You stay safely in the house, letting your surrogate go out in the dangerous world. You control what they do, you experience everything that your surrogate does, you see what they see, you live what they do. Yeah, it all sounds great…until a murder occurs. A surrogate is murdered! The human controlling that surrogate dies as well! How is that possible? I guess we’ll have to see the movie to find out. It’s like The Matrix and I Robot all at the same time! I’m in! Watch the trailer below and decide for yourself.
