Project P-100

*click for traler*

Clover Studios closed doors after bringing us such creative games as Okami, God Hand, and Viewtiful Joe, but the developers are still active and mostly working for Platinum Games now. This looks like it could have some of the creativity and zaniness of their prior works. You control a group of citizens that unite to have super powers... and blobs of jello... giant swords... I'm not sure I understand yet. Just watch the trailer.

Warface

Crytek (Far Cry, Crysis) are releasing their first game without the word "cry" in the title. As you may have heard, they announced that they will be an entirely F2P company from now on and this is their first big shot in the dark (in the face?) of this crazy new world of free games supported by microtransactions. They certainly brought the big guns in terms of graphics. We'll see what happens... I still don't trust the F2P business model.

Moonlighters

Image
*click for trailer*

Moonlighters is an indie title that is about a bunch of washed up actors that were trying to make a heist film. After that fell through, they thought, "hey, maybe we could actually pull off a heist in real life". You gotta love that premise.

Kick Beat

*click for trailer*

This is a music/rhythm game with martial arts for the Playstation Vita. It has some nice animation and the gameplay looks like it could have promise. It's hard to tell.

You've probably already heard about this game already, but I've included the trailer in case you haven't seen your daily quota of slit throats.

Hawken (with specialty controller)

Image
*click for gameplay trailer*

You probably already know that Hawken seeks to be the ultimate mech game. Well, now it looks like it's even giving Steel Battalion a run-for-its-money with this insane controller (not required to play, but awesome).

Starvoid

Starvoid is a new game by strategy specialists, Paradox Interactive. It is meant to be a strategy game akin to an RTS or MOBA, but short and fast paced enough that matches can be completed in about 15 minutes, making it more accessible.

Looks a lot like Dawn of War 2, actually. Yogscast has a good video on it. Looks to be up my alley, I'll probably check it out.
