Another game that was revealed at this year's VGA Awards was a game named The Last of Us.  Created by Uncharted developer Naughty Dog, The Last of Us looks to be an interesting departure from their most recent series which focused on archaelogical adventure.  The new game is a post apocalyptic story where it appears some sort of virus has wiped out the world's population.  The trailer focuses on a middle aged man and a young girl as they attempt to survive in what's called their "daily routine."  It already feels much darker, but still strongly character driven.

Last night at the VGA Award, Epic Game's Cliff Bleszinski revealed a trailer for their new game called Fortnite.  From the trailer we see a group of folks working together to gather supplies and then use those supplies to fortify a base during the day.  As night quickly approaches so do the strange creatures which the survivors must defend their base from.  It's a bit like a tower defense game and a bit like Minecraft.

The SpikeTV VGA Awards were tonight - and in case you missed it - well...you really didn't miss much.  That being said there we a few highlights in terms of new footage, namely one new trailer for Diablo 3 which showcases some story elements in typical Blizzard glory.  That means it's some of the most gorgeous CG work you've ever seen.

At least one person was excited to see the new Portal 2 trailer that was shown at last night's Spike TV Video Game Awards. The trailer unfortunately does not show any gameplay, but it does give us a nice glimpse into the personalities of the characters we'll be playing as.

Red Dead Redemption made a killing at the Spike TV Video Game Awards last night, bringing home the prizes for Best Original Score, Best DLC (Undead Nightmare), and Game of the Year. As insignificant as that may be to a lot of gamers, it sends a clear message to the industry: co-op is teh good. Awards won by Halo: Reach, Call of Duty: Black Ops, DJ Hero 2, Rock Band 3, and a special mention of Portal 2 all served the same purpose. Co-op is loud; co-op is proud.

You know when Epic announced they would be making an announcement relating to Gears of War at the Spike Video Game Awards?  Well, Major Nelson is announcing that the announcement is delayed.  

...or these pugs get Lancer-ated.

Naughty Dog have taken the wraps off the sequel to Uncharted 2, and despite the rumors, its not subtitled World of Deceit.  Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception is likely  to launch next year exclusively on the PlayStation 3, this time the story follows Drake as he searches for a legendary lost city on the Arabian peninsula.  It looks like the rumors were correct - there's going to be some sand in your shorts as deserts play a big role in the setting of the game.
