VGA world premiere trailers

There were a bunch of trailers shown during the Spike TV VGAs, but I’m only posting the ones of games that I think could end up on the Wii…

Tron

Normally I wouldn’t post up an ESRB description that doesn’t reveal new information about a game, but I felt like this is one of those instances where exceptions should be made. It’s a bit lengthy, so I’ll put most of the rating after the break.

No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle

Platform: Wii

Rating: Mature

Content descriptors: Blood and Gore, Intense Violence, Partial Nudity, Sexual Themes, Strong Language


Best Wii Game

– MadWorld
– New Super Mario Bros. Wii
– Punch-Out!!
– Wii Sports Resort


This information comes from the ESRB…

Platform: Wii
Rating: Mature

Content descriptors: Blood, Violence

Rating summary:

This is a first-person shooter in which players take control of an elite special-forces unit. Missions are set “behind enemy lines” in a number of Middle Eastern-style locations. Players use “run-and-gun” tactics as they navigate tight alleyways and corridors, secure buildings, and kill enemy forces. Realistic machine guns, shotguns, and grenades are used throughout each mission. The blood effects account for the Mature rating: When a player is shot by an enemy, the camera jerks slightly and a semi-opaque red effect covers the screen; large sprays of blood burst out of injured characters and linger in the air for a brief period.

Thanks to Captain N for the news tip!
