Well, more of a TV spot if you want to get technical about it. But this one features the ‘Peanut Butter Jelly Time Banana’ and a tattered little teddy bear who seems to become more ornery and violent with each passing trailer.
The game, set to be released this summer, follows a misanthropic teddy bear who, after years of ridicule and torture at the hands of the popular teddy bears, goes on a murderous rampage to exact revenge on those who have wronged him.

Bethesda has officially announced that Fallout: New Vegas will be coming in 2010. Unlike 2008’s Fallout 3, the game is being developed by Obsidian Entertainment, a company made up in part by many of the former members of Black Isle, the original developers of Fallout and Fallout 2. A note written from the Vault-Tec corporation (read it after the jump) gives us some indication as to what the game is about. Also check out the teaser trailer, also found after the jump.

Well…well…well look who is back again. Sega today finally released the newest information on it’s “project needlemouse” and to nobody’s surprise it is Sonic the Hedgehog 4. The Blue Blur will be making his return on the PSN, Xbox Live, Wii Virtual Store, and the iPhone. It is reported that the game will be coming in episode form, with the first episode being released this summer. Rumors are reporting that the story begins immediately after the end of Sonic the Hedgehog 3. It is also rumored that Wii and PS3 Motion controls will be implemented in some way as well. The game will sport HD graphics and a mixture of 2D and 3D graphics. So will this be the game that finally breaks the cycle and returns us to the glorious 16 bit days, or will it be another tragedy that finally puts the furious rodent down for the ten count

Capcom continues its exploration of its distant past with the sequel to its surprising retro hit, Megaman 9 with the understandably titled Megaman 10. Still sporting the 8-bit style graphics and soundtrack, players will return the blue bomber to the series’ famous mixture of addictive gameplay and brutal difficulty in the year 20XX. Set during an outbreak of Roboenza, the entirety of the world’s robots seem to become infected, causing a sedentary culture of dependent humans to suffer for the loss of their helpful robotics. Those bots that don’t just become sicker and sicker from the robot flu have begun going on fevered rampages across the land, calling out Megaman once again to set things right. Megaman 10 will be returning to Xbox Live Arcade, the Playstation Store, and Wiiware, with no set release date yet revealed.

The editorial writers at Adweek Media have compiled their list of the best advertisements of the decade as part of their “Best in 2000s” countdowns. The only two game-related pieces to make the extensive list were Halo 3’s “Diorama” trailer, which featured a scrawling shot of an epic diorama-esque art piece depicting a battle between the UNSC and the Convenant, and the Playstation 2’s “Mountain” trailer, which literally asked consumers to become “king of the mountain” with the system’s online services. While neither of the trailers made it past the finalist stage, the prize went to automaker Honda for their “Grr” commercial. Both of the trailers can be viewed in their entirety after the jump. Make sure to give us some of your favorite trailers that AdWeek might have missed in the comments section below!
