What Is New in Video Games?

Thinking of video games often brings about many memories, memories of college friends sitting in front of the television for hours, of heated arguments over remote controls, of friends playing World of Warcraft during commercial breaks. The truth is that video games have become an essential part of our life and culture. Ask any preteen or teen how they love to spend their spare time, and most likely you will get an earful about video games. The next few months are going to see some of the most impressive game releases in years. Meanwhile, the all time classics are proving age is no barrier to sustained gaming popularity. To get you acquainted with the newest trends, here is a brief overview of the latest news in video gaming.

The highlight of this month is easily the anticipation of the highly awaited game Portal 2 because with the release of its trailer very recently, the game is looking more and more awesome.Valve has just released a new trailer for Portal 2 that wants you to appreciate how important panels are to your survival. Portal 2 is to be released on Mac, PC, PS3 and 360 on April 19.

As for the latest in Nintendo Games, if you're thinking about picking up the Pilotwings Resort game along with a new Nintendo 3DS when they debut in stores, there is only one advice I can think about, be ready with an air sickness bag! That said, Pilotwings Resort is a delightful, high-flying flight simulation game, as long as the soaring 3-D effects that are its selling point don't make you woozy.

Also, Kalypso Media have released a new trailer for the upcoming adventure game The First Templar, where you fight your way through the 13th century Crusades in search of the Holy Grail. Heading back in time to the lovely and scenic 13th century, home of the Crusades, and taking the role of a member of the Templar Knights in the newest adventure game offering from Kalypso Media, I bet you cannot wait for it! Although the details on the game's story are still fairly vague, it is highly anticipated all over the world.

It is always good to step back and get a good look at the various cross-currents in the games landscape, and with this article on the latest in video games, and a combination of passion, innovative thinking, and wonderful execution, I do hope you make the best out of this gaming season!
