What gives? Mega Man 10 is coming out a year and a half after Mega Man 9, but the graphics still look the same?

Video Blips:

• You don't see the bosses in this Mega Man 10 trailer, but you do see their large, pixelated silhouettes. Anyone wanna take a stab at what animal/element/household appliance those shapes represent? [GameVideos

Continue after the break for a Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days trailer with "content inappropriate for children," Freddie Mercury's "cameo" in No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle, and an ironically small-in-size trailer for Pixel Junk: Monsters Deluxe

 

• This Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days trailer plays out like a suspenseful movie trailer. Sure, there's no gameplay footage in it but still, the game looks intense! [GameTrailers]




• Check out some of the mini games from No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle. The personal trainer guy near the end totally looks like Freddie Mercury from Queen. [GameVideos] Â


• We get it, the trailer for Pixel Junk: Monsters Deluxe is stylish and shows off that the game in on PSP. Nevertheless, having the actual gameplay video be a tiny fraction of the overall video screen size is just pure jackassery. [GameTrailers]

Wow, that PixelJunk trailer is just ridiculous. They definitely taking the whole "Hey, it's on a PSP!" angle too far. They could have easily started out the trailer the same way, but once the game video starts playing just zoom in so the gameplay is full screen.

Hell, they could have even closed it out by zooming back out to show the animation of the PSP Go sliding back together for another advertising reminder that it's only on PSP.

I know I'm probably getting a little too into this, but I'm a multimedia designer and I just get so perplexed when things like accessibility get overlooked.

@Marc, I'm no multimedia designer but I was a film major so I know crappy video presentation when I see it.
