Development duties have been entrusted to the same team at Traveller’s Tales that created LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures and the LEGO Star Wars series.
The Adventure Continues is said to present a “tongue-in-cheek take on all four cinematic adventures of pop culture’s most iconic archaeologist, including for the first time ever Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and will give players the ability to create levels of their own.”

Shortly after announcing that Dead Space Extraction will be arriving on Wii’s across North America on the 29th of September and on the 2nd of October in Europe, EA has released a new trailer for the game.
Watch below to get a glimpse of how the story begins and witness the terrifying horror that follows:
Eidos have announced that Rocksteady’s intensely moody Batman: Arkham Asylum will be heading out to the gaming public on August 25th in the US, and August 28th around Europe.
For those lucky enough to be attending E3, Eidos have reminded us that the title will be playable at E3, alongside their other titles, Mini Ninjas and Just Cause 2. Eidos EVP for sales and marketing Robert A. Lindsey said:
“Eidos is proud to offer three very innovative and unique products at this year’s E3. These games are a reflection of Eidos’ commitment to deliver compelling characters in rich and expansive environments, allowing players to immerse themselves in engaging gameplay.”
“Heading back to the Los Angeles Convention Center is a big deal and Eidos is striving to make the return to the show floor unforgettable.”
The latest Bayonetta trailer is completely nuts, with crazy weapons, crazy stunts, crazy enemies, crazy environments… it’s insane! This game is sure to give the Devil May Cry series of run for its money!
The trailer also reveals a bit of the backstory behind the loopy third-person action adventure game, including one of the main adversaries as well as the reason for all of the fuss in the first place.
Watch the frenetic, exhausting Bayonetta trailer below:
Continuing the series of Trauma Center games that have appeared on the Wii and DS, a new entry to the franchise has been unveiled in the form of Trauma Team for the Wii, releasing in the Spring of next year.
Being billed as a “medical entertainment experience,” Atlus announced today that Trauma Team will incorporate six distinct fields of medicine, including the ability to play as a general surgeon, diagnostician, E.M.T., orthopedic surgeon, endoscope technician and a medical examiner. Sounds complicated. Good thing it’s a game!
Trauma Team is also said to include “dynamic” story sequences inspired by traditional Japanese animation and comics, which is pretty evident from the screenshots, as each chapter “comes vividly to life with distinct style,” while the “quality voice acting” rounds out the experience, increasing the intensity of every medical emergency that heads your way.
Have a look at the rest of the released screenshots for Trauma Team below:
A new piece of Brutal Legend footage has been released, which not only tells the tale of how and why protagonist (and expert roadie) Eddie Riggs came to be summoned back to the ancient land he now finds himself in, but also reveals how tough the life of a rock band roadie can be…
Watch this mysterious Brutal Legend footage below:
Also be sure to visit Brutal Legend’s new E3 website, and count down to what might just be a cool announcement.
