Today we bring Star Trek Online fans two big chunks of information and a whole slew of Klingon screens, too. First is a short trailer featuring Zachary Quinto laying down dialog for the game. Make sure you watch the video until the very end, as there’s a fun extra you won’t want to miss.
Second — and arguably much more exciting to specific fans — is the reveal of Klingon gameplay. Klingons are PvP only, meaning their progression contains no PvE questing of any kind. Just how much information are we talking about here? Well, pretty much all of it. In fact, we’re kind of wondering why you’re still reading this and not looking below the cut, where vast amounts of Klingon gameplay treasure awaits.
Ahhh yes, flying helicopters from base to base, frantically scrambling to a good vehicle or cover, and the always prudent flag rush — staples of any good Battlefield: Bad Company online multiplayer match. Maybe you were more into sneaking into a building’s attic, blowing a hole in one corner, and carefully sniping the other team from afar? You are our bane!
Ahem, that said, the latest multiplayer trailer for Battlefield: Bad Company 2 above, serves to remind us of all the good times we had the first time around. It also, unfortunately, serves to remind us that the second game still isn’t out for another three months. Luckily, some of you will get to enjoy the multiplayer beta starting today. Do us all a favor, folks — shell the snipers!
In a world where things like extreme Bible-reading apps exist, it was hard for us at first to accept that Mass: We Pray could be anything other than legit. After watching the alleged (read: probably fake) developer Prayer Works Interactive’s over the top trailer for the game, though, we were fairly confident in casting doubt on the game’s veracity. A quick WHOIS of the game’s official homepage revealed nothing, and our email to the company was met with a boilerplate auto-response denying our request for more information.
Add to that the complete lack of any business records with the Massachusetts Secretary of State’s office (the company’s alleged home state) nor in business-friendly Delaware, and the possibly offensive included accessories, and we’ve got a maybe viral ad/maybe hoax on our hands. If we were the speculating types, we might posit that this has something to do with Dante’s Inferno and a tie-in to a particular ring of Hell – Heresy or Fraud, perhaps? Either way, give the aforementioned trailer a gander after the break and see for yourself exactly why we’re so skeptical.
When we say “NCsoft” it usually brings to mind their big, highly-promoted titles like City of Heroes, Aion, and Guild Wars. However, NCsoft enjoys quite a bit of popularity in their home country of Korea, and a lot of people are looking forward to another upcoming title. Blade and Soul hasn’t enjoyed the worldwide hype that some other NCsoft titles have, but it’s still got an excited fan base looking forward to it.
News for eager fans has been on the skimpy side, with the biggest announcement lately being a recent mention from the NCsoft CEO Jaeho Lee: “I believe there will be certain public events in the year 2010… at least a closed beta test for those titles. Commercialisation will be expected, at this point, probably some time in the year 2011.”
Yesterday NCsoft delivered a little surprise via Twitter for those anticipating Blade and Soul: a teaser trailer is coming soon, and a 30-second teaser is available now. Take a look at the teaser after the jump, and we’ll keep an eye out for the full length version for you!
Listen, we don’t need to understand the primary language used in a trailer to know that it’s completely awesome. After the break, you’ll find a six-and-a-half-minute-long Japanese trailer for Resonance of Fate (or, as its called overseas, End of Eternity), and while we don’t really understand what’s being said, the video possesses plenty of the universal language: Totally rad gun … shooting. Gun action. Firearm discharging … coolness.
Okay, there’s not really a word for the video’s awesome properties, but we trust that you’ll know them when you see them.
