Call of Juarez: The Cartel Story Trailer

For 'Call of Juarez: The Cartel' the developers have put down the Winchesters and picked up their assault rifles and are promising a blood filled trip down to Mexico dishing out some wild west style justice, but in the modern world... Confused? - Good! Developed by Techland and published by Ubisoft, Call of Juarez has a release date of summer 2011. Is it just me or does the guy at the end of the trailer look like Triple H ??

Wii 2 - a bigger stronger wii

"We will show a playable model of the new system and announce more specifications at the E3 Expo, which will be held June 7-9, 2011, in Los Angeles," the company said in a brief statement.

The new Wii 2 is promising to have more power than the PS3 and Xbox 360, and be backwards compatible with current Wii titles.

The console aka Project Café will also have a new, tablet-shaped controller. With a 6-inch touch screen display, dual analog sticks, and has the ability to stream content directly from the console. And a Hi-Def 1080P output.

But wii will have to wait until E3 this year to see if Nintendo can live up to this mighty claim..

Wii 2 is currently expected to come in at around $350 to $400 or €237 to €270 approximately.

Hopefully it will contain some actual gameplay, but either way it’s going to be something special.

DiRT 3 Developer Q&A

Although living in the murky realms of 2011, make no mistake Dirt3 is coming,and coming like an out of control freight train going sideways on gravel. Moreover, by telling us that sixty percent of the game play will be based on rally stages just makes me want to make sure I’m on that train. The game will also include Gymkhana, which should be a blast going around Monaco and L.A's coliseum in a rally car..

Gran Turismo 5 - Dev Interview.

OK race fans! Here we have an interview with two localization producers from the grand old USofA for GT5 for you to get a semi over. They seem to be trying to cram everything you could want in a racing game into one big package, from Karting to a Customizable course maker. NASCAR rears its ugly head for the first time in the Gran series to “appeal to a new demographic” i.e. Beer swilling rednecks. I’m sold where do I sign up. But all this takes time which might explain why the release date of November 1^st will come and go with no GT5 in your hands. That’s right GT5 has been delayed again, this time into the murky darkness of “this holiday season”.
