The first "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World" trailer has been unleashed and there's little doubt that the project is very focused on capturing the visual style of the comic series, complete with "POW!"s "WHUD!"s and "WHAM!"s at appropriate times.

Blizzard Entertainment's annual gaming smorgasbord has become a rite of passage for "World of WarCraft," "StarCraft" and "Diablo" fans the world over. This year's BlizzCon will once again take place at the Anaheim Convention Center, with the festivities running from October 22nd to the 23rd.

Nintendo denies that they have in-house plans for a Wii HD upgrade. They just don't feel HD compatibility alone will be worth their time. Such skepticism has not hindered VDIGI, however, and the third-party electronics maker now claims to have a device that will upgrade a Wii's video output to a full 1080p. It's called the VD-W3 Wii HDMI Upscaler Processor. Now I'm the one getting skeptical.

Gangster wannabes will have to wait until late this Summer before they can be Made. Take-Two and 2K Games just announced that "Mafia 2" will be releasing on August 24th. I've seen the game a few times and it's definitely on my list of most anticipated titles for the year. Great graphics and great storytelling (a hallmark for the franchise) all point to a title that shouldn't be missed.
If you happen to find yourself at PAX East this weekend, "Mafia 2" will be publicly playable for the first time, so you won't have to take my word for it.

Gas Powered Games' "Supreme Commander" took the real-time strategy genre and packed a more epic experience in. Your armies were larger, as were the battlefields, and so your tactics had to be deeper and often cover more than one front. Individual unit commands were still an option, but sound tactics depended on grand-scale management of forces. "Supreme Commander 2" improves on its predecessor in just about every way... including how it delivers what few before it have: a fun console RTS.

"Persona 5" became a speculation target last year when producer Katsura Hashino blogged that a "Persona 4" team reunion was in the works. Well, it's 2010 now, and Hasino has confirmed that a new "Persona" game is next on their to-do list.

So how much space does Project Natal require? Owners of tightly packed New York apartments and cramped residential quarters everywhere should breathe a sigh of relief now that Microsoft has gone on the record to clarify that they've considered a wide range of living space measurements. Their statement comes in direct response to a report stating that about 13 feet would be needed between a user and a television to use Natal.

Today's edition of "Stuff That Came" is a bit special, in that I was expecting this specific "stuff." After all, I commissioned it!
My interest in "Super Meat Boy" comes from a strange, oft-forgotten part of my brain that really enjoys punishingly difficult platformers. Pair that with my fondness for indie gaming and you can understand why I felt compelled to finish all the levels in "N+." In the handful of times I've played "Super Meat Boy," that part of my brain buzzes and whirs in anticipation for its release.

The "Spy Hunter" franchise already saw one giant evolutionary leap when Midway released "Spy Hunter: Nowhere to Run" for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson in 2006. Johnson was also tagged to star in a potential film based on the series, but that eventually fell apart the property rights have since moved on to Warner Bros. Now, WB wants to give a "Spy Hunter" movie one more go.

EA has a lot of hurdles to leap with their reboot of the "Medal of Honor" franchise. After peaking with "Medal of Honor: Allied Assault," the series has fallen by the wayside in recent years with decent if forgettable releases. This year's reboot, titled "Medal of Honor" is an attempt to bring the franchise back to past glories.
I saw the game a couple weeks ago, when EA showed off a snippet of one of the missions in the game. The focus of this new "Medal of Honor" is on an elite group of soldiers known as Tier 1 operatives who use undercover tactics to infiltrate enemy targets, dressing and speaking like the locals in an effort to blend in before moving into action.
