Hitman: Absolution "Tools of the Trade" trailer

Hitman: Absolution is all about taking down the target your way. Either quietly, guns blazing, or with anything you find in the world. Be it a mug, or a baseball bat, it's all up to you. This latest trailer shows the many objects in the game that Agent 47 can use as a lethal weapon.

I will definitely keep an eye out for the plunger.

Hitman: Absolution comes out on November 20 for Playstation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.

Dragon Age 3: Inquisition announced by Bioware

Bioware just announced that a third Dragon Age game is in the works, and it will be called Dragon Age 3: Inquisition. It's planned for a 2013 window release and will be using the Frostbite 2 engine from DICE as a foundation for the game's new engine. First details below.

BioWare’s Mark Darrah revealed the news at their official Dragon Age website. The post also mentions that most of the team that worked on Dragon Age: Origins is the team working on Dargon Age 3.

The possible release window, the title, game engine, and the team working on Dragon Age 3 is all he was able to reveal during the post. Bioware won't reveal anything further for now, so all we can do is wait until they are ready.

Recently, I said that we didn't want to talk about Dragon Age III unless we had something to show. I'm trying to stick to that plan and won't be revealing much today. That said, a lot of information and rumors have surfaced recently and we don't want to hide from them. There are a BUNCH of things that I really want to share with you but I want to do this right, and doing it right requires some more time.

There was also no mention on Dragon Age 3's platforms.

3DS version of Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate won't have online play

Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate was announced during the reveal of the Wii U's price and release date, planned for a March 2013 release for the Wii U and 3DS platform. Now, Capcom is confirming that the 3DS version of the game will not have online play. Yes, didn't make any sense when I read that as well.

Capcom's Yuri Araujo spoke to Official Nintendo Magazine UK confirming the news by saying that the company "has no plans" to make the 3DS version of Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate playable online. The Wii U version of the game though will definitely have online play, but using Nintendo's servers.

Playing with friends in Monster Hunter is one of the main reasons why I love this franchise, why they would not include it on the 3DS version, I'll never understand.

With the Wii U having online play and two analog sticks, it's definitely sounds like the better version. That, and better graphics of course.

That's just one man's opinion. Does having no online play give you second thoughts of getting the 3DS version? Or is it not a big deal to you?

Conan O'Brian goes ahead and reviews Resident Evil 6

Conan O'Brian has been doing this Clueless Gamer segment of him playing a video game and reviewing it. It's hilarious, but his latest one I have to say is the best one. He gets to play Resident Evil 6. Not the full game though, but he got first dibs on the new demo that's coming out this September 18.

His conclusion with Resident Evil's back story is pretty accurate.

Resident Evil 6 comes out on October 2 for Playstation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.
