As you might have imagined, there is a plethora of game videos coming from GDC right now. So we thought we’d put together a small collection of links so you can browse some of the ones we’ve seen so far. We also found a video on 1UP.com that is not from GDC – but it is still worth a look! It is called Lust Cause 2. Cast your gaze below for the rest of the list.
The GDC List:
SOCOM fans that already heard this week’s announcement of SOCOM 4 and then tuned into last night’s GTTV to check out the debut teaser might also be interesting in scoping the below “Director’s Commentary” of said trailer which includes, as one might suspect, commentary that delivers “key information” about the game.
How..vague…
This according to the Official US PlayStation Blog post where I happened to find it, and since it so vague and somewhat intriguing, why not join me in watching the vid and finding out what this “key information” really is…It’ll be like going on a secret mission or something.
We KNOW for a fact that there are PLENTY of you that are enjoying RedLynx’s Trials HD so we’re letting you know that the dev has launched a new YouTube channel, RedLynx TV, to showcase and support your passion for virtually breaking your neck. The new channel highlights “player-demanded” content, such as tutorials, tournaments, and other valuable info about RedLynx games.
“Trials HD is our hottest game to date,” said Tero Virtala, CEO of RedLynx. “Ever since its launch, players have been clamouring for tips, tricks, and extra goodies. With this dedicated YouTube channel, we can reward them directly, developer to gamer.”
RedLynx TV will feature a mix of ‘official info’ and user-generated content created spontaneously by the player community. An example of this are the Trials HD videos created for RedLynx TV. These videos were created by John Lloyd of Michigan, USA, a dedicated Trials player and a graphic design/video creation professional, in cooperation with RedLynx. Lloyd’s videos feature tips and tricks, user-created levels, and the first ever RedLynx TV contest.
“John’s work had a level of dedication to the game we could not ignore,” said Antti Ilvessuo, creative director and co-founder of RedLynx. “Our games are about community, so we had to come up with a way to share this passion with everyone. We’re starting with Trials but we want to talk with our fans about all of our games, going forward. This is a great way to get that started.”
Cool, so, check out the first video above or head to the aforementioned YouTube channel for more.
So we already know that Capcom will be bringing Street Fighter IV to the iPhone, but up until now, we haven’t had the chance to actually see the game in action. Well, feast your eyes on the below video which, courtesy of Slide to Play, showcases the rather impressive looking title in action…That is, until you consider the controls, which look cumbersome at best…Anyway, watch the vid and judge for yourself!
A post on the Official PlayStation blog this morning invites gamers to step up to the plate and check out the new “Real Time” presentation mode in the upcoming PS3-exclusive MLB 10: The Show. Available with replays or without, Real Time is a new presentation mode designed to further enhance the realism that the popular baseball simulation title offers. The below video has a few examples of the mode in action, so if you’re interested, give it a look. I do encourage you to go back and read the post though as it has a good explanation about what you’re seeing in the video to help you better understand what it’s all about.
MLB 10: The Show ships March 2, 2010.
Unboxing vids aren’t generally of the “GREAT” variety, but when you combine a great game, with a great special edition, and a great gag, well…Greatness ensues. Don’t take my word for it though, check out the official BioShock 2 Special Edition unboxing video after the jump…it’s pretty great.

With a week to go until the release of EA’s Dante’s Inferno, it appears that at least one copy of the game has slipped under the radar and into the hands of an individual possessing both a love of DLC and internet movies. Uploaded earlier today, a featurette apparently contained on the game disc reveals the “Trials of St Lucia” DLC which, according to Senior Producer Hans ten Cate, is a “downloadable expansion that brings mutliplayer co-op and content creation to the game”.
At its core, it appears that the content will serve to allow co-op gameplay within custom-created “Trials” that will be uploaded then download and ranked by users via the game’s servers. The content will also feature exclusive baddies and the ability to play as St Lucia who is referred to as Dante’s “Guardian Angel” of sorts.
Per the video, the content is expected to be released on April 29.
Now, while this is still unofficial, we DID get a few new OFFICIAL screens from Dante’s Inferno today which you can check out inside the game’s gallery here on EBA.
Check out the video for the ‘Trials of St Lucia’ DLC after the jump and stay tuned for any more info on the content as it emerges.

A post on The Behemoth (Castle Crashers, Alien Hominid) official blog has revealed BattleBlock Theatre, previously known only as “Game 3″, for Xbox Live Arcade. The game, which doesn’t have an official release date, is described below:
Having shipwrecked on a mysterious island you find yourself both betrayed by your best friend Hatty and captured by the locals. All of this is happening while being forced into deadly performances. This however, is just the start of your problems.
BattleBlock Theater is our upcoming third title for the Xbox Live Arcade. Website to follow in the next few days and as we inch closer to the release of the title we’ll be unfolding more of the story online.
Nice. Words are only so good of course, which is why we’ve posted the debut trailer below as well. We’ll keep you posted on any new details as they emerge.
As promised, last night’s GTTV revealed the latest title from Platinum Games. Titled Vanquish, the futuristic shooter was showcased via a live-action trailer featuring mechs, one pissed off politician, and a wickedly armed dude in a combat suite that sorta resembled the main guy from Shadow Complex…Anyway, there was no release window given or even platforms specified, but considering the development studio behind it, we’ll certainly keep our eyes on Vanquish and get you any new details as they emerge. Check out the trailer for yourself after the jump or in HD right here and then let us know what you think in the comments section below.
