Will this spawn a new age of browser-based adventure games? No. But it should!

HTML5 can be used to make games that look like this.

Soooo HTML5 can make those clocks you find in Chinese restaurants?

They aren't animated, really.  It's just fancy-pants palette cycling.

Getting some hardcore Amiga nostalgia off these.

It's not even palette cycling.  It's using a series of .pngs and a script to simulate an animated gif background.

Do you understand how terrifying the words “vibrating strap on” are for an asexual? That’s like saying “the holocaust” to a Jew.

Early Arkham Asylum sequel details.. Sounds promising. I look forward to the vertical spaces possible in this new setting.

[PS3/360]Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Announcement Trailer

At first I was like "It's set in the real world, I liked the ace combat world. :("
And then I was like "THEY'RE CHANGING EVERYTHING IT'S GONNA SUCK"
And then I was like "Oh man this music is pretty sweet, sounds like keiki kobayashi is doing this one too"
And then I was like "NEW ACE COMBAT GAME :D:D:D:D:D:D :glee: :glee: :glee: :rage: :itsatrap: :advice: :tldr: :nyoro~n: :perfect: :perfect: :perfect: :perfect:"
And now i'm like "GODDAMN IT YOUTUBE I KNOW MY INTERNET IS CAPPED BUT I WANT TO LISTEN TO THAT MUSIC AGAIN"

I want my ace combat.

I'm hoping that the trailer doesn't actually reflect the game much aside from airplanes shooting action game. In that trailer there is:

* MASH TRIANGLE TO GET BEHIND BAD GUY

* GUNNER SEAT RAIL SHOOTING

* ON RAILS FLYING?

It looks awesome, but I hope most of it is just a mockup for the game.

Smiler, yeah, a lot of it is probably mockup stuff, like the missile counters on the side don't change at all.
I am a little worried about it becoming a QTEfest, but, I'm still hopeful. And it's sorta cool that they're letting you use gunships and stuff, maybe they'll make it a branching mission thing, so if you don't want to do that kinda stuff, you can just stay in jets.

I'm just really hoping it comes out as good as i'm hoping for, the trailer looks pretty badass.
Anyway, it's team aces, they do good work! So Fingers crossed on wood.
