Here is it folks, the multiplayer beta trailer for Halo Reach, coming May 3rd, 2010 (make sure you keep your copy of Halo 3: ODST for an invite). A few notes of interest include: the brand new assassination animations, 'Active Roster', Spartan's vs Elites mode and I am assuming a new co-op mode called Invasion.

After watching this trailer, I advise all of you to get your rest now, as I see plenty of sleepless nights on the horizon. Make sure to leave us a comment and let us know what you think!

Ubisoft Montreal has just released three developer diary videos, detailing the multiplayer experience for Tom Clany's Splinter Cell Conviction.

In part one, we learn about the co-op campaign and the events that lead up to Sam Fisher's mission in the singleplayer campaign. In part two, we learn about the Deniable Ops mode and how it has replaced the Spy vs Merc multiplayer modes from previous Splinter Cell titles. And finally in part three, we learn about Persistant Elite Creation and why it is to your advantage to be a completionist in Conviction.

Coming this April to the Xbox 360 and PC, Splinter Cell Conviction is shaping up to be an incredible co-op experience and something I cannot wait to get my hands on.

After the jump, look for parts two and three of this developer diary.

Not sure how long this will last, but someone has managed to grab 2 minutes of gameplay footage for Super Mario Galaxy 2, most likely from yesterday's Nintendo Summit.

First off, the game is gorgeous, showing off what the graphical capabilities of the Wii and reminding us that yes Nintendo makes great looking games too. Not to mention, the use of Yoshi in a 3D world and the new drill feature makes for brand new 3D platforming experiences that we have all come to expect from our favorite Italian plumber.

Look for Super Mario Galaxy 2 on May 23rd, 2010.

A new video for Battlefield: Bad Company 2 just hit our inbox and in this PC walkthrough, Producer Anders Gyllenberg gives an overview on the PC specific features that gamers can look forward to on release, including PC specific graphical enhancement options, server selection tools, and an integrated friend system which allows you to find and squad up with your friends.

Bad Company 2 releases next week, and while I didn't think this title would interest me, some of the recent footage has certainly peaked my interest.

Based on the "Blade Kitten" comic book series by creator Steve Stamatiadis, Krome Studios is bringing bounty hunter Kit Ballard to digital life. The action adventure game, developed by Krome Studios, is set for release this Spring, exclusively on the PlayStation Network.

Blade Kitten invites players into the world of Hollow Wish where they take on the role of Kit Ballard, one of the best bounty hunters in the business.  With her pink hair and tail, Kit is part cat, part girl and fully lethal.  As one of the last of her species, Kit commands her unique "Darque Blade" hovering sword to defeat enemies. Also along for the ride is Skiffy, Kit's laid-back sidekick who lends a hand in collecting items, solving puzzles, and when needed, serves as Kit's protector.
