    We Play: Batman Arkham City Nightwing DLC MCM Demo

    We Play: Batman Arkham City Nightwing DLC MCM Demo

    Dick Grayson--former boy wonder Robin, now better known as Nightwing--was unseen through the story of Arkham City. That's because he's been hiding out in a new downloadable content pack that we got to see at MCM. Developer Rocksteady was there to show us how to take out Gotham thugs the professional way, and we were left stunned with some incredible combos.



    Rounds one and two start out relatively tame, with Nightwing using his twin electro-batons to beat enemy thugs into submission. You can see that his batons work in a similar way to the taser rods that some thugs use, pushing...

    We Play: Trials Evolution MCM Expo Demo

    We Play: Trials Evolution MCM Expo Demo



    Four bikes, four players, and three races. At MCM Expo, we took to the dirt to try out the follow-up to the incredibly successful Xbox Live Arcade racer Trials HD, pitting Blue, Green, Red, and…erm…"a" against each other in a Trials Evolution Cup race. Tearing it up through sand, water, darkness, and forested tracks, our riders suffered numerous challenges and very bouncy suspension. Only one could take the victory,...

    We Play: Saints Row: The Third MCM Expo Demo

    We Play: Saints Row: The Third MCM Expo Demo

    Were you at MCM this weekend? No? Then hang your head in shame! We forgive you, but you did miss out on developer Volition showing off Saints Row: The Third on the GameSpot UK stage. Fear not, though: we have four gameplay videos from the show right here for you. Yes, we're real Samaritans.



    Who needs to learn all that free-running rubbish when you can get across the city via a human cannon? As demonstrated here by our talented green hero, just a little gunpowder and a huge barrel is the only way to travel in style. Upon landing, feel free to pummel your rival street gangs into a sticky red paste.



    If keeping the combat close and personal is really your thing, then take up a mace. Combined with some slick wrestling moves, this is definitely the showman’s way of saying, "Would you kindly refrain from walking on my turf?"
