I know, this game looks amazing, but that announcer is super corny.
Thanks to Logan for the link.

The Japanese Resident Evil site had updated a little while ago with a full-length trailer to it’s upcoming “Umbrella Chronicles” game for the Wii – a House of the Dead-esque first person shooter game which is said will tie the stories of the first series of games together, as well as give some insight to what happens before Resident Evil 4.
Now a pre-E3 trailer has come out to best that. The first part features what was on the Japanese RE site, and the second part seems straight gameplay footage with some pretty extras.

This seems to be Capcom’s answer to the gnawing craving fans have whilst waiting for more definite info releases on Resident Evil 5. Although no official release date has been announced for Umbrella Chronicles, it would appear it aims for a release later this year. E3 very well could be the place that’s fully revealed.

Yes, we all saw it coming a mile away. Kotaku reports that Sony’s David Karraker announced the Sony PlayStation 3 will immediately begin selling for $499 in North America.

In addition, in August Sony will sell a model with a larger 80 GB hard drive installed and a copy of Motorstorm for the old price of $599.

OK, how about now? Is everyone done bitching about the price now? Oh you want more cuts? Sheesh.

A couple weeks ago I found a beat up second-generation Camaro on craigslist, and was sorely tempted to drop $3 grand on a car worth turning into Bumblebee. Due to the amount of work needed, I had to pass. However, another chance to own a Transformer has just come up.

Edmunds reports that Monroe Truck Equipment in Monroe, WI has teamed with Hasbro to customize GMC TopKick 6500 pickups to the specs seen on Ironhide in Transformers. Complete with the big-rig stacks and the 20 inch wheels paired with 40 inch tires. Oh, and the Autobot logo is molded into the back tailgate, just as in the movie. This truck may not turn into an actual Autobot, but it will transform your wallet to empty: Retail price is $75,000.

Additional reporting from The Monroe Times. Powet.TV world headquarters is mere minutes away from this shop, so we’ll do our best to be on the scene when the first Ironhide rolls off the lot.

I attended Botcon 2007 this year and was able to get my hands on all of the exclusives. I decided to do a quick hands on with all ten exclusives. I divided it up into two 10 minute videos because its long, a little boring, and not very in depth. If you’d like me to do a more in-depth look at each of the exclusives with more background information and the full transformations, please let me know by commenting on this post below. Thanks!

Part 1: Dirge, Thrust, Thundercracker, Dreadwind and Bugbite

Part 2: Springer, Huffer, Weirdwolf, Alpha Trion, and Phasing Mirage

[EDIT – CRAZY: It has been brought to my attention that Don Figueroa did the art for the cover of the box set and not Dan Khanna. Apologies.]

As announced by IGN a few days ago, the good people over at Midway Games have blessed it’s loyal fans with a bit of nostalgia to tide them over until the next-gen Mortal Kombat comes closer to realization. Come November of this year, the Nintendo DS will be getting a ported release of Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. A little treat for those familiar with Mortal Kombat Deception will also come bundled in, in the form of Puzzle Kombat (aka: Tetris with blood)

As can be seen, the box art mimics that of the skulls seen on the boxes and arcade machine versions of Ultimate MK 3. The character selection is the same, though some like Ermac and Mileena must be first unlocked in order to play, and Noob Saibot is unplayable. Still, it’s a little slice of heaven for those of us who miss the good ol’ days of 2-D fighting with motion capture animation and explosions of bodies with 10 limbs, 3 ribcages, and about 40 gallons of blood. Good times.

Today is the more widely known “American Independence Day” but all too often “Mexican Independence Day” is unreckognised by people outside of Mexico but no longer will that be the case. Mark your calendars because Powet.tv will be bringing you this special movie on this coming Mexican Independence Day, September 16th 2007, to celebrate this momentous occasion. This film will be much like the Blockbuster hit “Independence Day” only more Mexican. The movie is shot entirely in Spanish though it stars only English speaking people and features staples of Mexican culture.

Primary photography on this project has been completed though no special effects, ADR or reshoots have been done at this time. Enjoy some stills from the film’s production while you wait patiently for it’s release.

I couldn’t have been more satisfied with Transformers (review on the way), but few will disagree that the mysterious trailer for a movie without a title stole the audiences attention for those few moments before Peter Cullen’s voice took hold of the theater sound system.

But what IS this movie? IMDB refers to it strictly as Untitled J.J. Abrams Project, the website , which is simply the release date www.1-18-08.com, shows a single still image. Thankfully, there is SOME information on Wikipedia…

The film is scheduled to be released by Paramount Pictures on January 18th, 2008. The premise is a giant alien known as “The Parasite” invades Earth and it is filmed entirely with handheld cameras. Also known is that the movie isn’t even done filming and the trailer was filmed before the movie was finished. Not much is known about the movie, and it has been widely regarded as a secret movie and Cloverfield may be a temporary working title .

More info as we get it. Between this, I Am Legend, the Invasion Of The Body Snatchers remake and the already released Transformers, were really set for alien invasion movies. Hollywood reaction to immigration reform or just another excuse to blow something up? You decide! Leave a comment below.

The trailer itself isn’t online officially, though low quality bootlegs appear on youtube with some frequency. The best way to see it is just going to Transformers.
