Bioware has released a slew of new Mass Effect 3 trailers. Some of which explore the cinematic nature of the game, while others show off the new custom options.

When five of ten puzzles are borrowed from past episodes, we have a problem.
After playing through the past three Carmen Sandiego Adventures in Math games, I’ve built up a memory bank full of the puzzles that have been featured in each one. It’s pretty easy, as each game only contains ten puzzles and each feature repeat puzzles from prior installments. The Great Gateway Grab stays true to the series’ roots, as it has a total of three repeat puzzles with two that are extremely similar, though not identical, to past puzzles. When half of the puzzles in the game are repeats, it becomes very hard to suggest anyone buy it if they’ve been following along with the series.
The ghost of Wii Sports lives on... and on.
Not content to release a "dull and outright boring" 2012 Olympics mini-game collection just for the Wii, Sega was kind enough to spread its time-tested mediocrity to the 3DS.
The publisher goes to the social network to test the waters.
UPDATE: Ask and you shall receive. Atlus has announced that due to popular demand, they will be running a second printing of Radiant Historia. The second printing will go live sometime in March and will be available at EB Games and Amazon.com. It is possible that the game will be made available through other outlets, but we cannot confirm that at this time. Below is the original story as it was reported on February 3, 2012.
The company had strong sales in Japan to make up for poor international numbers.
Namco Bandai has announced that its quarterly profits have increased by 48%. This is due to a 17% increase in Japan and despite a 27% decrease in the US and a 5% decrease in Europe. The period in question is from the beginning of October to the end of December 2011.
Paramount Pictures and Namco Bandai are teaming up to develop the game.
Namco Bandai has announced that it is working in conjunction with Paramount Pictures to develop a video game based on the upcoming Star Trek movie for a 2013 release. The title will be released for "all major home consoles and PC."
A couple of Hollywood's stars voice characters in the series reboot.
Electronic Arts announced via a press release that actors Rosario Dawson (Men in Black II, Sin City) and Brian Cox (The Bourne Identity) will play as Lily Drawl and Jack Denham respectively in the upcoming Syndicate reboot game. Lily Drawl is a rising star of EuroCorp, a corporation featured in the game and Jack Denham has a top role in the same company.
Substance catches up to style in this blood-filled sequel.
Like its predecessor, Shank 2 is a 2D linear action platformer. I’ll be honest, I didn’t play more than 30 minutes of the original. I was more than intrigued by Shank’s ultra-violent cartoon animations, but I didn’t enjoy the gameplay at all. The combat mechanics felt clumsy and seemed disconnected from what was happening on screen, and the dodging mechanics were also extremely tough to pull off -- making it a chore to play.
The finale of the NES trilogy is truly a classic to behold.
The year was 1990. It is about a year before the Super Nintendo makes its debut, but the NES is enjoying brisk sales of both hardware and games. The previous year Nintendo released its first handheld system, the Game Boy, and unleashed the addiction known as Tetris. This was, however, in North America. As I eluded to in Mario Mania #2, a Famicom player often had a different, exclusive set of hardware to play with than his counterpart in North America. The Japan-only accessory, the Famicom Disk System, was one of them.
