If a Formula One fan wants a racer that captures not only the passion of the motorsport they love, but the realism that drives it, they only have one place to go. Thankfully Codemasters have nailed both criteria so well, that one wonders if there would be any need for another developer to ever tackle the series.
There is a rule of thumb in gaming, kids’ games and games based on films are usually terrible. Of course there are exceptions to this rule such as LEGO Star Wars and Chronicles of Riddick. Phineas and Ferb: Across the 2nd Dimension, however, is not one of these exceptions.
I think Ben and myself are going to be fighting it out over who gets to review this one, maybe we will have our very own real life version of tower defence to decide who gets it. Anyway, in this trailer (via RPS) we see Ezio looking old as he gets involved in a spot of ‘den defence’ in the upcoming Assassin’s Creed: Revelations.

For one, the above Skyrim trailer looks more like a trailer for Game of Thrones than a game, then is promptly ruined by the giganto-fake dragon at the end. Below the jump is the Battlefield 3 trailer.
With apologies to Sony and the fine folks at the ever talented Naughty Dog, we’ve just realised that the upcoming Uncharted 3 hasn’t been mentioned on the site for something like four months. Let it not be said that Uncharted 3 is a game that is not coming out soon. In fact, the truth is quite the contrary: Uncharted 3 is very much a game that is coming out soon. In under a fortnight to be precise.
My lord, just take a look at this trailer for Battlefield 3, it is quite immense. Guns, planes, tanks and a sneak peak at Strike at Karkand at the end.
One wonders how many Sonic fans and detractors were made twenty years ago when the original Green Hill Zone blast-processed its way onto their screens.
