Finally we have a full official trailer for the hotly anticipated action-adventure game The Last Of Us Part 2 and it doesn’t disappoint.
Fans of the Naughty Dog sequel, to one the best selling games of all time, have been wringing their hands in fevered expectancy for nearly three years and now they have a trailer to pour over.
The first game, released in 2013 had players control the main character Joel, a smuggler tasked with escorting a teenage girl, Ellie, across a post-apocalyptic United States.Part 2 is set five years after the original, where players control an older Ellie, who comes into conflict with a mysterious cult in a post-apocalyptic United States.
There will no doubt be the expected Naughty Dog twists and turns with a collection of jaw-dropping main sequences and judging from the trailer it’s beauty might also melt your eyes.
The Last Of Us Part 2 is scheduled for release on the PS4 on February 21st, 2020.
Last night, live on YouTube the new Battlefield game trailer was revealed and like everything nowadays there soon followed much foaming at the mouth and spitting of rage.
A certain section of gamers and fans of the series went apocalyptic over the use of a female character in the trailer, raging at the developers for being ‘historically inaccurate’ with the new content, because it featured a woman.

It didn’t matter that tanks careered through buildings, trucks were dropping out of the sky, planes were crashing all around whilst soldiers, complete with facepaint, biker jackets, mohawk hair and metal prosthetic hands were jumping through top floor windows unscathed. No, these excessive, disproportionate details were fine, it was the inclusion of a female character which shat all over every aspect of the ‘historical accuracy’ this game was selling.
Hasn't this Battlefield V discourse happened at least twice before?
Were there fewer women on the battlefield in WW2, in general? Yes.
Were there any snipers named ASS_BANDIT_69 who jumped into a tank, got blown up, and came back to life to do it again? No.
It’s a fucking video game with over-the-top action which is engineered to excite and entertain the player and the only true way this can be achieved is when reality is detached. Unsurpisingly the trailer took a beating on social media with bro-gamers using the hashtags #genderfield and #notmybattlefield.
Fans, who weren’t gagging on their toxic masculinity, were delighted to learn that the new Battlefield game won’t have a pay to win system or premium pass, meaning loot boxes won’t feature and once you buy the game any additional content will be free. Personally we can’t wait to see more.
#BattlefieldV: ✅No Premium ✅Campaign ✅Co-op ✅Grand Operations ✅No bullet spread ✅Deep character and vehicle customization ✅Robust "Tides of War" Live Service ✅Women
If the last thing breaks the game for you, rethink your life priorities.
Earlier this week the trailer for Naughty Dog’s long awaited game Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End was finally released.
As per, the award winning game developer did not disappoint with the trailer hitting all the right marks for fans. Except there was a slight problem with the trailer’s content, more specifically it turned out some of the footage used was from another game.
Accusations ran riot on social media until Naughty Dog themselves admitted that they had indeed used some artwork from Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed. The detail had been spotted by Ubisoft employee Azaïzia Aymar who took to social media and declared:
“I get the ‘thief’ title now!”
Ouch! Turns out it was all an innocent mistake and Naughty Dog apologised for the error by releasing the following statement:
“In our eagerness to get the story trailer out we made a regrettable mistake and didn’t thoroughly vet the art work used for an in game painting. We’ve already updated the trailer. We hold all artistry in high regard and take full responsibility for having allowed this to happen. We want to sincerely apologise to everyone at Ubisoft, the Assassin’s Creed team, the original artist, and our fans.”
We doubt that this ‘mix-up’ will have any detrimental effect on the launch day sales of the game.
Game developers Bethesda have finally confirmed that there will now be a fourth Fallout game and during their official announcement of their new game they went a step further and delivered a gloriously looking launch trailer.
It’s been almost seven years since the last Fallout game and fans have been foaming at the mouth for news on a follow-up. As of yet very little is known about the forthcoming addition to the game’s franchise except of course it will be set approximately 200 years after a war over resources that ended in a nuclear holocaust in 2077. The setting is a post-apocalyptic retro-future, covering a region that includes Boston, Massachusetts and other parts of New England known as the Commonwealth.
Bad news for Xbox 360 and PS3 owners as Bethesda have confirmed that Fallout 4 will not be coming to those platforms upon release or for the foreseeable future.
Here’s a POV style promo video for the forthcoming Call Of Duty: Advanced Warfare game, available for your gaming pleasure on Monday.
The short is directed by Peter Berg and stars Taylor Kitsch as well as a brief cameo from model Emily Ratajkowski. It’s an impressive piece of marketing which demonstrates all the new bells and whistles the game has to offer, but through live-action.
For the opening few seconds of this game trailer I initially thought I had been transported back to the 90s and started to get excited about buying this title from my next-gen games console the PS2.
What is going on? A game adaptation for three movies, the most recent of which was released back in 1988?
Here are three fantastic new trailers for Rockstar’s much anticipated new game Grand Theft Auto V. Why three? Well for the first time as a player you’ll be able to switch seamlessly from three different playable characters throughout the course of the game.
This new trailer for the forthcoming game Bioshock: Infinite is a retrotastic tribute to the late 70s. It plays like one of those terrible educational films once screened in schools. Only with this one we learn more about the mysteries of the floating city of Columbia and the self proclaimed prophet Zachary Comstock.
The opening credit reads: ‘A trailer through the eyes of Michael Bay.’ WTF? Does this mean that while we’re watching this trailer we’re actually inside movie director Michael Bay’s head, watching the same trailer that he’s watching only he has no idea we’re watching the same trailer while we’re all crammed inside of his head? And cue sound effect.
This is in fact the commercial advert for the soon to be released game Need For Speed: The Run, where players have to race from San Francisco to New York to save their lives, or win a prize, or steal a kiss from a good looking girl or save Macaulay Culkin from a swarm of angry bees, who cares it’s just a driving game. You know if we hadn’t been informed before we saw this trailer that Michael Bay had directed it we would never have known…not even from stills like the ones below…never…nope…not in a million years…no way.
Following on from our previous post which featured seven minutes of insane gameplay footage from Saints Row The Third, here’s a 12 minute look at Rock Steady’s eagerly anticipated follow-up to their highly successful Batman: Arkham Asylum game with Batman: Arkham City.
Don’t worry the footage doesn’t give much away in terms of spoilers except for the fact that Catwoman crops up as a playable character, but seeing as Rock Steady already announced and demonstrated that at E3 it’s not much of a spoiler. Apparently there will be over 16 hours of game-play with 400 additional challenges contained throughout. October can’t come quick enough.
