Today in Gaming: Blackbird Interactive released the first gameplay trailer for their upcoming scavenger strategy game HARDWARE: Shipbreakers. As Blackbird is made up of several people from the Homeworld franchise, it should be of no surprise to anyone that the game has a very familiar look and gameplay style about it. It's a cool video, but the guy at the end seems oddly calm about the loss of his squad-mates.
Today in gaming: GamesHQMedia posted pre-alpha gameplay footage of the game Age of Wonders III -- a Civilization-esk strategy game -- on their YouTube Page. This game is gorgeous. The game features magical spells that allow you to terraform and magical hero units and armies that you can use to fend off invaders into your land. There's also dragons! I love dragons. Triumph Studios -- the developer of this game and the Overlord games on XBOX 360 -- hasn't released an official launch date yet, only an estimate of autumn of this year.
