Codemasters have released the Debut trailer for Dirt 3. Dirt 3 is coming out in 2011 on the Playstation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. Dirt 3 has over 50 rally cars, from the last 50 years of rallying, and more than the double the tracks that were in Dirt 2. A new addition to Dirt 3 are show piece driving events.
Codemasters have provided a summary of the Dirt 3 debut trailer:
The DiRT 3 video opens with WRC driver Ken Block leading the field as his iconic Monster Energy-branded Ford Fiesta rally car kicks up a dust storm in a sundried Kenyan rally stage. Seamlessly hurtling into a torrential downpour on a muddy Finnish lakeside course, Block then jumps into a Norwegian stage that’s thick with snow. Racing onto tarmac, a Ford RS200 classic rallycross car races into view and goes head-to-head with Block and a Mitsubishi Evo X in rallycross spec in the hills above Monaco.
Press Release
Tuesday 3rd August/... Receiving its worldwide broadcast television premiere during this year’s Summer X Games coverage on ESPN channels, Codemasters® today released the official DiRT 3 trailer video in HD. Revealing the first details on the biggest, content-rich racer ever to roar out of Codemasters Studios, the DiRT 3 trailer is now playing atwww.facebook.com/dirt3game.
The DiRT 3 video opens with WRC driver Ken Block leading the field as his iconic Monster Energy-branded Ford Fiesta rally car kicks up a dust storm in a sundried Kenyan rally stage. Seamlessly hurtling into a torrential downpour on a muddy Finnish lakeside course, Block then jumps into a Norwegian stage that’s thick with snow. Racing onto tarmac, a Ford RS200 classic rallycross car races into view and goes head-to-head with Block and a Mitsubishi Evo X in rallycross spec in the hills above Monaco.
The pace then changes as man and machine demonstrates what the very best drivers can do with a rally car in a Gymkhana-style performance. Set in the open environment of London’s disused Battersea Power Station, this skills showpiece delivers a new layer of depth to the DiRT series’ variety of action-sports racing.
Coming 2011, DiRT 3 will boast more cars, more locations, more routes and more events than any other game in the series, including over 50 rally cars representing the very best from five decades of the sport. With more than double the track content of 2009’s hit, DiRT 3 will see players start at the top as a professional driver, with a top-flight career in competitive off-road racing complimented by the opportunity to express themselves in Gymkhana-style showpiece driving events.
As players race to elevate their global standing, DiRT 3 delivers mud, sweat and gears world over: from the intense weather-beaten rally stages of Europe, Africa and the US, to executing performance driving showcases and career challenges where car control is pushed to spectacular limits. DiRT 3 is now in development at Codemasters Studios for a 2011 release for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft®, PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system and PC Games For Windows® LIVE.

Microsoft Have Released The Opening Cinematic To Fable III
Microsoft have released the opening cinematic to Fable III. This CGi Movie provides hints, through the narration of the trailer, of what the plot of Fable III is whilst also providing a unique look at Albion. The Cinematic follows the tail of a Chicken who makes a break for freedom.
Press Release
LONDON – 04 August 2010 - Ba-kawk! A chicken cluck is hardly the battle cry for revolution, but the journey to rule in “Fable III” is a treacherous one and you’ll need all the followers you can get to start the rebellion. Microsoft Game Studios and Lionhead Studios have teamed up to offer a revealing glimpse into “Fable III,” which launches on October 29th, with the game’s opening cinematic featuring everyone’s favourite punting target as the most unlikeliest of heroes. Dashing through city streets and hurdling through the air, witness the daily struggles of Albion’s citizens through the eyes of a chicken as he makes the ultimate gamble for freedom.
In a world where freedom is nothing more than a dream, Albion’s oppressed and downtrodden citizens desperately need a hero. Against all odds, our aspiring hero dares to take a stand against his sworn enemy and puts up a rebel’s fight, paving the road to revolution for those who follow. However, he’ll quickly learn that revolutionaries can’t triumph alone. Will this brave chicken succeed in his quest for freedom or will he pay the ultimate price? The tide is turning and the uprising has begun – will you follow his lead? Make your way to www.lionhead.com to watch the world premiere of the “Fable III” opening cinematic now!
“Fable III” sets the stage for an unparalleled action and adventure experience, in which you will be called upon to lead a rebellion against your brother, the tyrant king Logan, and rise up as the new ruler of Albion. Take part in all the action, drama and humour as you’re propelled into a rich and engaging story, featuring a unique cast of characters around you.
“Fable III” will be available in a Standard Edition (£49.99) and Limited Collector’s Edition (£59.99) for Xbox 360, and is available now for pre-order at participating retailers.

Mediatonic Announce Who's That Flying, An Exclusive Playstation Mini's Game
Mediatonic have revealed their upcoming Playstation Mini's Game, Who's That Flying. This is the second Playstation Mini title from Mediatonic, the first was Monsters (Probably) Stole My Princess, and this will be exclusive to Playstation Mini's. In the game you play as Guardian of Earth, who must defend the earth from the Doom Beasts. But, as you missed the initial invasion wave, you will also have to defend the Guardian of Earth himself from accusations of gross incompetence from the Galactic Council of Justice.
Game Features Summary
Press Release
London, UK. London-based development studio Mediatonic has announced Who’s That Flying?!, its second PlayStation Minis game for PlayStation Portable and PlayStation 3. Who’s That Flying?! is a brand new, original IP and will be released exclusively as a download from Sony’s Playstation Network (PSN) store. Who’s That Flying?! is a side-scrolling shooter crossed with tower defence and courtroom drama, all doused in sheer awesomeness - AND THEN SET ON FIRE.
Players take control of the mysterious and powerful creature known only as the "Guardian of Earth". His steely eye and HYPER-POWERED LASER ARM have kept the citizens of Earth safe for generations (as well as proving a hit with the ladies). With all his awesome TALENT and FLAIR, surely it would be IMPOSSIBLE for a sudden and devastating invasion of colossal Doom Beasts to descend on the Earth’s cities and cause havoc without his knowledge? No. It’s not. And the fact that he was posing for photos at the time has nothing to do with it.
To save the Guardian Of Earth’s reputation, as well as the Earth itself, players must not only defend the cities from ravenous hordes of Doom Beasts but must also defend the Guardian of Earth against accusations of gross incompetence from the Galactic Council of Justice - and this is all BEFORE players can even start to get to the bottom of just who or what is really behind the invasion.
The announcement of Who’s That Flying?! follows on from Mediatonic’s critically acclaimed PlayStation Minis debut, Monsters (Probably) Stole My Princess. Both titles demonstrate the studio’s belief in creating games packed full of love, character, story and attention to detail.
Writer and designer Jim Griffiths comments: “The beating heart of Who’s That Flying?! is a fast-paced side-scrolling shooter, but we’re also very proud of the world and characters that we’ve created. Every level you play through is actually the Guardian retelling his story to the Galactic Council in an attempt to prove his innocence - with the occasional twist in the tale." Jim continues: "We feel it’s an interesting and effective way of bringing together the story and the game mechanic to make both of them feel relevant and more meaningful to the player.”
Mediatonic’s co-founder and creative director Paul Croft adds: “It’s fantastic to be announcing another title for Sony’s brilliant PlayStation Minis service. WTF was a really interesting game to work on as we tried to combine two very different game mechanics to create something truly unique. It’s quick and fun to pick-up and play and we believe it will appeal to both casual players and hardcore shmup fans alike. We’ve packed a lot of content and personality into the game and we’re really excited about the launch!”
