Today at the Leipzeg Game Convention in Germany, at the end of Konami's Press Conference, Lords of Shadow was announced in a quick teaser video showing a man fighting a monster in front of a church with a whip.  So far speculation is that this is a new Castlevania title.  It will be for the Xbox 360 and PS3 in 2010.

We've always ben fans of the Team Fortress 2 trailers, and the new "Meet The Sandwich" video is no exception, giving us plenty of "lawlz" as the kids these days say. Watch, enjoy, and maybe even make yourself a sandwich.

Our love for killing zombies not only applies to videogames, but it also applies to watching zombies being killed in game trailers, especially in the Resident Evil 5 "Leipzig" trailer above. Facing a zombie with a giant axe? Great! Killing zombies on motorcycles? Even better! This footage just makes the wait to the title's May launch date even longer.

Mmmmmm world exclusive trailer. Although world exclusives are always tasty, the graphics on this one remind us a bit too much of Grand Theft Auto. But that didn't stop it's predecessor from selling well last time. We expect this one will do just as well, if not better. The God Father II is only for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC, there's no The God Father: The Black Hand love for Wii as of yet. Do we have any God Father fans excited for the game out there? Now if you'll excuse us, we'll get back to listening to Jonathan Coulton songs as we get ready to move our "offices."

Game Informer will have the full wrap on the game in their new issue when it goes on sale August 18. Heres what we know so far:

"Batman: Arkham Asylum from Rocksteady Studios and Eidos. This completely original title explores Gotham City’s darkest location, the infamous Arkham Asylum. But as a routine prison transfer goes wrong, the Joker sets his demented plan into action and Batman comes face to face with an army of his worst enemies. In a dark and gritty setting reminiscent of Bioshock (with a story co-written by Paul Dini), Arkham Asylum is setting the stage for a true-to-character Batman game."

Heres to hoping that the rumored Pandemic developed Batman is indeed in the works as well. The more the merrier right? Well, as long as it isn't a repeat of Superman 64 (which doesn't look to be the case), because 2 doses of Superman 64 is enough to kill a man.

Although Bungie missed it's chance to reveal their new Halo related project at this years E3, it seems like they're adamant about missing any chances to tease us. Luke Smith, former Kotaku and 1up writer who now works at Bungie Public Relations, teases us with a new project above in Bungie's video response to winning Edge's Innovation Award for Halo 3. 

"Even though in Halo 3 you finished the fight, that doesn't necessarily mean the fight is over. Wait a second...there is no way we're showing this yet! Thanks again Edge, I'm sure we'll be talking to you guys soon. And don't show this to the internet."

Ah, well...I'm sorry blue spartan with Luke Smith's voice. They did show it to the internet. And now we know that you know that we know because you wanted us to know about about another Halo related project, that's not Halo, that's currently being worked on.

What do you guys think the mystery project is? Sound off in the comments!

Dear Treyarch,

Although the co-op footage above looks good, we're still a bit hesitant. Please, Treyarch...don't let this be another Call of Duty 3. You know exactly what we mean...

Hoping Call of Duty: World at War is as god as it looks,
