New trailers, promotional art for The Force Unleashed and The Old Republic

First, new, short cinemas for The Force Unleashed 2.


Starkiller slaughters lots of Stormtroopers



Starkiller throws Vader through a lot of walls. (Who cares about the old movies in 3D? I want to see more of these.)



Second, new promotional images by Marek Okon for The Old Republic:

Metroid: Other M launch trailer, lackluster reviews, desktop wallpapers, and cosplay

There are a few new Metroid desktop wallpapers at the official site. Kotaku gave it a fairly strong review (while criticizing the "annoying" controls). Destructoid gave it only a 6.5 out of 10. But the launch trailer is pretty cool.

The game comes with a $20 credit if you buy it at Amazon.

And here's a new Samus cosplay photo by Yuki LeFay. Her Samus gallery is great

Bioshock Infinite trailer and desktop wallpaper-sized stills

The new Bioshock game trades the art deco and neon for airships, Main Street Americana, and a bit of steampunk:

BioShock Infinite is a first-person shooter currently in development at Irrational Games, the studio behind the original BioShock (which sold over 4 million units worldwide). Set in 1912, BioShock Infinite introduces an entirely new narrative and gameplay experience that lifts players out of the familiar confines of Rapture and rockets them to Columbia, an immense city in the sky.

Former Pinkerton agent Booker DeWitt has been sent to rescue Elizabeth, a young woman imprisoned in Columbia since childhood. Booker develops a relationship with Elizabeth, augmenting his abilities with hers so the pair may escape from a city that is literally falling from the sky. DeWitt must learn to fight foes in high-speed Sky-Line battles, engage in combat both indoors and amongst the clouds, and harness the power of dozens of new weapons and abilities.

Here's the official site. Below are the trailer and desktop wallpaper-sized stills I pulled from the trailer.
