God Eater website opens, reveals dark debut trailer
Post by ：StarKiller 08:27:17 Source： joystiq Editor：StarKiller
It looks like God Eater may be much more than a simple Monster Hunter clone. While the gameplay is focused on multiplayer monster slayin', we're digging the game's dark anime look. The music is particularly exciting to listen to. Check out the official website for another soothing piano ballad. We have to admit -- we're really getting pumped for this one.

Square Enix reveals European Dissidia collector's edition

Apparently EA is working on a sequel to Skate 2, if the Epicly Trife twitter is to be believed. Epicly Trife (NSFW) is a site dedicated to skating, and its twitter account said the following: "I just got told 'tonight we gotta celebrate,' one of the bro's got offered to be in SKATE 3." By no means a confirmation, we're still excited, as Skate 2 was not only a great sequel, but pretty much the best skating sim around. Plus, it's much easier to get up after falling down four flights of stairs in a video game, as gravity is a much more harsh mistress in real life.

So this is kinda confusing, try to roll with us. Developer Reality Pump announced that it's working on Two Worlds II, due this winter. Only ... it had already announced a sequel to Oblivion-esque FPS RPG called Two Worlds: The Temptation. We're pretty sure the team just decided to go with the number instead of the subtitle, but we guess we'll never know. (Yeah, we've emailed them.)

Sony Patents Emotion Engine Emulation for PS3 Cell
Post by ：StarKiller 06:25:08 Source： Gametab Editor：StarKiller
When Sony was looking for ways to trim PlayStation 3 manufacturing costs, one feature that didn't make the cut was the built-in Emotion Engine, which allowed PS2 backwards compatibility. But, according to a Siliconera report, it may be on its way back thanks to software emulation. A new patent from Sony Computer Entertainment America suggests Sony has developed the code to emulate the Emotion Engine on the Cell processor. The patent shows "an example of a host system based on a cell processor that may be configured to emulate the [Emotion Engine]."

We want this Fallout 3 Brotherhood of Steel costume
Post by ：StarKiller 04:58:11 Source： Gametab Editor：StarKiller
OK, we're sure this has been floating around the tubes for a bit, but we're more than happy to devote some attention to the very cool Brotherhood of Steel costume you see above. Made out of awesome and love (probably some foam and paint in there too), the beautiful homage to Fallout 3 was apparently completed back in March.
