Latest Game Trailers
![<p>Endless Ocean: Blue World, Nintendo’s sequel to its 2008 fish touching… er, scuba diving simulation is due in just a few weeks. To get everyone ready for a second trip into the briny deep, Nintendo today released a new trailer.<br />
The trailer shows off the expanded set of “unique tools” available to the diver, not the [...]</p>](/image.php/endless-ocean-blue-world-trailer.jpg?width=180&height=76&cropratio=2.35:1&image=http://gamerant.com/wp-content/uploads/Endless-Ocean-Blue-World-Wii.jpg)
![<p>A new, and absolutely awesome might I add, trailer for Just Cause 2 has been released for your viewing pleasure. It is titled ‘Freedom and Chaos,’ and after you watch the video, I think you will see why it was named just that.<br />
Here is a list of what you will see going down in this [...]</p>](/image.php/just-cause-2-freedom-chaos-trailer.jpg?width=180&height=76&cropratio=2.35:1&image=http://gamerant.com/wp-content/uploads/Just-Cause-2-Freedom-and-Chaos.jpg)
![<p>ModNation Racers seems to be taking the road that its inspiration, LittleBigPlanet, has laid out before it with its own PSP version. ModNation Racers allows players to create their own race track, car, and racer. The best part about the game though is the fact that everything can be shared online, so people all over [...]</p>](/image.php/modnation-racers-racing-psp.jpg?width=180&height=76&cropratio=2.35:1&image=http://gamerant.com/wp-content/uploads/ModNation-Racers-PSP.jpg)
![<p>Sega has released a new trailer for the upcoming Iron Man 2 game based on this Summer’s sure-to-be-smash-hit movie. This trailer is a bit more interesting than the initial game footage (below), as it depicts the War Machine character model in his shoulder-canon firing glory!<br />
Movie based video games do not have a great track record [...]</p>](/image.php/iron-man-2-game-trailer-reveals-war-machine-game-footage.jpg?width=180&height=76&cropratio=2.35:1&image=http://gamerant.com/wp-content/uploads/iron-man-2-video-game-trailer.jpg)
![<p>Fallout: New Vegas, the latest game in the Fallout series, was officially announced today along with a teaser trailer. Bethesda, who is known for their massive single player RPGs, is continuing along the journey they know so well. Although not a direct sequel to Fallout 3, this should add a new experience to those who [...]</p>](/image.php/fallout-new-vegas-announced.jpg?width=180&height=76&cropratio=2.35:1&image=http://gamerant.com/wp-content/uploads/fallout_new_vegas.jpg)
Latest Game Reviews
![<p>Short Version: If you have a DS and loved the Puzzle Quest series of games, then definitely check out Puzzle Chronicles.</p>
<p>Game Rant’s Marc bell reviews Puzzle Chronicles for the Nintendo DS<br />
Puzzle Chronicles comes to us from Konami and Infinite Interactive, the makers of several successful crossover puzzle/RPG titles such as Puzzle Quest and Puzzle Quest: [...]</p>](/image.php/puzzle-chronicles-ds-reviews.jpg?width=180&height=76&cropratio=2.35:1&image=http://gamerant.com/wp-content/uploads/puzzle-chronicles-review.jpg)
![<p>Short Version: MAG introduces 256 player games into the FPS genre and backs it up with interesting first person shooter gameplay with only a few minor flaws.</p>
<p>Game Rant’s Alex Sebenski reviews MAG<br />
The release of MAG brought with it the promise of a bigger, more strategic and realistic war simulation first person shooter. 256 players in [...]</p>](/image.php/mag-massive-action-gaming-reviews.jpg?width=180&height=76&cropratio=2.35:1&image=http://gamerant.com/wp-content/uploads/mag-review.jpg)
![<p>Short version: Mass Effect 2 is a must-play game for its story but it may not live up to expectations of RPG players or hardcore fans of the first Mass Effect.<br />
Game Rant reviews Mass Effect 2<br />
Before it even released, the hype surrounding the long-awaiting sequel to BioWare’s 2007 hit game Mass Effect suggested that Mass [...]</p>](/image.php/mass-effect-2-reviews.jpg?width=180&height=76&cropratio=2.35:1&image=http://gamerant.com/wp-content/uploads/mass-effect-2-review.jpg)
![<p>Short Version: Tatsunoko vs. Capcom is a great tile. There is such an overabundance of things to complete and unlock that it will keep you going for hours. The only downside is the fact that you don’t know half of the roster (unless your a huge anime fanboy/girl), but overall a must own for the [...]</p>](/image.php/tatsunoko-capcom-reviews.jpg?width=180&height=76&cropratio=2.35:1&image=http://gamerant.com/wp-content/uploads/Tatsunoko-vs.-Capcom-Review.jpg)
![<p>Short Version: While I did enjoy playing Glory of Heracles… This title will most likely end up being a big hit only for die hard, turn-based RPG fanatics or those looking for a classical Greek fairy tale fix.</p>
<p>Game Rant’s Marc Bell reviews Glory of Heracles<br />
Glory of Heracles is the latest turn-based RPG for the Nintendo [...]</p>](/image.php/glory-of-heracles-ds-reviews.jpg?width=180&height=76&cropratio=2.35:1&image=http://gamerant.com/wp-content/uploads/glory-of-heracles-review.jpg)
![<p>Short Version: Army of Two: The 40th Day improves the controls but doesn’t polish them. Graphics seem both better and worse and the story is nonexistent. It’s not a great game but still worth a play-through with a friend cooperatively.</p>
<p>Game Rant reviews Army of Two: The 40th Day<br />
I have to admit that when the sequel [...]</p>](/image.php/army-of-two-40th-day-reviews.jpg?width=180&height=76&cropratio=2.35:1&image=http://gamerant.com/wp-content/uploads/army-of-two-40th-day-review.jpg)
