Irrational Games released a new trailer that is not only filled with gameplay footage, but it also has information regarding pre-order bonuses sprinkled throughout the trailer.

I got to admit, I’m a 90s child. I’ve used those floppy disks, listened to a Walkman, and drew superheroes at class when everyone else was listening to the teacher. And, ah yes, I grew up with Microsoft too. If you’re asking me why I am so nostalgic, that’s because Microsoft has just released its latest advert for the Internet Explorer. The ad, which is now on YouTube, is entitled “Child of the 90s” and it basically walks the viewer to a time when everything was much simpler. (more…)

Commercials for Samsung’s Galaxy devices are usually spent bashing the competition, that is unless it’s changing your perception of Mrs. Claus. They’ve recently bashed the iPhone 5, and are once again setting their sights on Apple’s smartphone, as well as RIM’s BlackBerry devices.

The new Samsung commercial was created to hopefully change the minds of business users who have trusted their business needs to a BlackBerry device, while at the same time, throwing iPhone users in there who separate their business and personal phones while at the workplace. At one point in the commercial, an extremely cool employee was able to use his Galaxy Note 2 to conduct business and watch a basketball game, while his boring cubicle mate continue to praise his BlackBerry device.

We could see why Samsung would go after Apple’s iPhone in their previous commercials, but we think their kicking a dead horse, especially when that horse reported a $114m loss just last month, is a bit much. Maybe they came up with the idea for this commercial fearing what RIM has up its sleeve with BlackBerry 10?
