It's been almost 5 years since Ubisoft gave us its last Prince of Persia. Leaving us to think that was it, and that it was just supposed to be another trilogy in gaming. I'm glad to know we were wrong. Prince of Persia comes back and better than ever, with pretty much the same kind of gameplay but a few cool new features that will make this game one of this year's best.
This time around the Prince is not alone, and I'm not talking about a different self that comes every now and then like it used to in The Two Thrones. Now you go through the game with Elika, a princess/warrior-ish kind of lady that will make an excellent companion for you while trying to beat this game, as she will help you with long jumps, attack combos and all other cool stuff that the guys at Ubisoft have prepared for us.
Another thing worth mentioning about this game, is the graphics. Taking advantage of this gen's power in a lot of ways, Prince of Persia comes with a great new refreshing look, giving us sort of a cartoony feel but at the same time hard enough to keep us interested and eager to see what beautiful landscapes and moves this game has to offer.
Prince of Persia will be out on December 2nd, and will be available for PS3, PC and XBOX 360. The wii version, well, like with every single game... wiill have to wait.

Rock Band 2 coming out next month
Looks like Guitar Hero's greatest rival from MTV Games, Rock Band 2, will be released next month for the Xbox 360. According to this guy, some dude at some retail store found in its system the release dates for this game for each of the consoles. And as a proof, he took som pics of the screen and sent them out. Let's all hope he's right, or he's going to end up looking like a fool, LIKE A FOOL!!
Anyways, the realease dates he found are September 14th for the Xbox 360, October 19th for the PS3 and November 18th for the Wii.
I must mention though, this game looks pretty awesome. With 82 on disc tracks, most of them good songs, the backwards compatibilty with the original Rock Band, and the ability to download up to 500 songs by the end of this year will make this game crawl up on top of its genre. Adding to that, we'll be seeing music from AC/DC, Bob Dylan, Nirvana, Metallica, and a few songs from Guns and Roses' upcoming comeback album "Chinese Democracy", among others. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what Guitar Hero does to top that. You can pre-order or buy it here.
Here, I leave you the trailer. Enjoy.

Legendary looks awesome!
I'm sure that you're thinking "Oh man, another crappy sci-fi first person shooter..". But let me tell you: this game looks far from crappy.
Legendary is a fps in which you'll assume the role of a robber who dumbly opens Pandora's Box inside a New York museum and releases all kind of monsters on the world. Stupid thief! Check out some screenshots and the trailer:
You can pre-order it right here.

Demigod: Fantasy strategy gaming returns!
Since Warcraft III in 2001, this genre has been lacking of a good-over-the-top-fun game for us to play. Finally, with the release of Demigod, our hopes of enjoying this kind of rush again increases.Set in a magical world where gods walk among mortals, Demigod blends action, strategy and role-playing elements into a thrilling new experience. Select the Demigod that will lead your minions into battle and unleash the dogs of war against your rivals. Your Demigod will do whatever it takes in order to ascend to true godhood.

It's a brutal conflict of Demigod versus Demigod, where the very ground beneath their feet will tremble and quake.
Here is the exciting trailer for this amazing game.
This game will be released in February 2009, so we'll keep posting videos and screenshot as they are released, meanwhile you may visit its official website here. Here are some screenshots...
