Pre-E3 09: Yep, Supreme Commander 2 does in fact exist

Admitedly,Supreme Commander 2was announced last year, but few details were available at the time and no footage of the game was ever shown. As such, it quickly became lost in the already crowded useless videogame information database that is my brain. Thankfully, Spike TV debuted the “exclusive reveal” trailer for the real-time strategy game, and … wait, what the hell? Here we are, however many months later, and there’s still no gameplay footage....

Nothing better than seeing a presentation on games that you won’t get to actually see the same night!

Prototype footage from CES came a little early, also kind of cool

Over the past few days, it seems like Sierra Entertainment and Activision have been having a bit of a problem with thePrototypeWeb site. After passing (quite easily) through the age gate, users were treated to somePrototypeassets destined for CES next month, not the trendy countdown they’ve since changed it to. The clip above (and four after the jump) are all really short, but they do feature tiny little snippets of the game....

According to the latest issue of the Japanese gaming magazineFamitsu, Capcom has shelved its plans to releaseDevil May Cryfor the PlayStation Portable. Wait, what? Was that even ever announced?

It’s 2009, and obviously, that’s never happened. In fact, Capcom hasn’t really said anything about it since 2005, save for a passing mention (which no longer appears) on Capcom’s Japanese Web site....

R.I.P Aliens RPG: Sega responds to cancellation

I think I’ve written aboutAliensas much asKotaku‘s written aboutDragon Quest IX. I just love acid-filled space rapists with big, phallic heads. That’s why I was bummed whenAliens RPGwas officially canned, andSega’s responsedoesn’t cheer me up, unfortunately. “At this point, Sega has no plans to move forward with theAliens RPG,” states a Sega spokesman. “TheAliensfranchise offers us so much content to choose from that we feel it important to take a step back and carefully consider the type of game we want to release....

Rock Band 3 trailer reveals Faith No More, INXS tracks

Let me come out and say this right now: when it was revealed thatRock Band 3would support a keyboard peripheral, I figured it would be about god damned time the entirety of Faith No More’sAngel Dustwould make its way onto the platform. Right? Right. Well, looking closely at one of the latestRock Band 3trailers, you’ll notice that we’re — at the very least — 1/13th of the way there. Pay close attention to the trailer and you’ll notice that the album’s first single (and third track), “Midlife Crisis” is shown....

Zombie Driveris the first commercial PC release for Poland-based EXOR Studios, and if a mash-up betweenCarmageddon,Grand Theft Auto 2, and the standard zombie apocalypse sounds like a fun time, you’ll want to read up on the game. Probably the most surprising thing aboutZombie Driveris its free-roaming nature. Hell, there are even side quests — now there’s something you wouldn’t think it would have based on the provided screenshot. Oh, and zombie dogs....

Scraps: Takin’ it in the Bushidō (17-07-2025)

I went ahead and boughtSamurai Shodown IIfrom Live Arcade last night. I already have the game for my Neo-Geo arcade cabinet but it would be nice to have somebody to play it with from time to time. You know what I’ve realized while playing it? I really suck at this game. This isn’t something really new to me. I could make an excuse about how it’s totally not the same without an arcade joystick, but that would be crap....
