My fan-girl tears threatened to spill out when I watched the preview for Portal 2 at E3 this year.
Scheduled for release in early 2010, Bayonetta is an interesting action game that promises to “blow the doors off the action genre”
With Japanese gamers learning months ago that they would be receiving Final Fantasy XIII within the year, US and European RPG fans were getting understandably antsy about when the rest of the world would finally get to play Square-Enix's next epic title. Thankfully, they won't have to wait too long, as the latest trailer (embedded above), announced a March 9, 2010 release date. The reveal comes in the final ten seconds of video, but it's preceded by a slew of developer commentary that's worth watching.

First-person shooter fans looking for a fix after Modern Warfare 2 won't be disappointed, as two new games have already been announced for a 2010 release.
