Awesome. Although check out Gina Carano’s Fight Finder thing that Nallen posted up top. She could grind herbs or crush walnuts with that jaw.

I’d have to say that as a small boy, the best part about Red Alert was the FMV. I’m glad to see that they’re sticking to it after all these years.

Though I’ll agree that they should get some real boobs for the women.

Also: I like Leigh. She can push me back/under/around on 4chan any day.

Females on my RockPaperShotgun!

Also, more drunk trailer reviewing with females, this was really, well quite funny.

chesh: Agreed, with a twist. They’re my two favorite procrastinating journalists. Maybe together they can tackle the mysterious hotness quotient of DHSGiT… and finish with a simultaneous bang. No subtext there.

The trailer is filled with this man’s favorite B-movie actors, and the AAA’ness of Jonathan Pryce. Curry, Takei, have earned their ponches/gray hairs. But those soon to be forgotten B-list actor-chicks? Where’s Christina Ricci, and Janine Garofalo? EA, get some real B-girl hotness for RA4!

Rotbot: So posting this.

Chesh: I’m sorry, man. Though now, in a circle of life way, you’ve made *me* listen to the Sisters.

Oh dear, my two favorite game journo types, together at last. This will be my undoing.
Also, unrelated: Damn you for offhandedly mentioning the Sisters of Mercy like a year ago, Gillen, now I’ve been listening to them and then going out to our local goth club’s 10 year anniversary party and dancing overdramatically to Lucretia, My Reflection and it’s terrible and your fault. *shakes fist*
BACK ON TOPIC. No love for George Takei? For shame.

basically world war 3 with sociopathic japs ; and this trailer looked like a big budget porn movie scene before the actual copulation

Okay, Tim Curry, Peter Stormare (annoyingly paranoid demolition man Johann Strauss in Quake 4 BTW), George Takei and Jonathan Pryce = SOLD.

Come on, did you guys not watch Pirates of the Caribbean at all? Or did you get distracted from Pryce because most of his scenes were with 17 year old Keira Knightley, who played his daughter? Or the Rock Horror Picture Show? YOU’VE NEVER THROWN YOUR TOAST?

And not recognising Sulu is totally inexcusable.

Yuriko Omega - a female psychic commando that wears a Japanese school uniform.

Was this not in the trailer? Leigh was complaining about the lack of anime characters. Here's the artwork and in-game model.
