Just in time for the chaos here is the final new trailer for “God of War 3″ which hits stores today. I’m sure many of you are going to be pulling all nighters tonight playing this one. Via: The Koalition

Booom Shaka Laka! The official trailer to “NBA Jam 2010″ is finally here. Game right now is planned to be released only on the Wii by EA Sports. Expect a very hip-hop heavy soundtrack to be announced soon.

Duck Down Records has had a long-standing relationship with the publishers of the NBA 2K series and now they take it to the next level hosting a in-game music contest. Details on the ad right here but basically upcoming producers and MCs will have the chance to have their music featured in the upcoming NBA 2K11. Don’t be surprised if EA’s NBA Live franchise fights back by teaming up with Jimmy Iovine and Interscope. Via: TheKoalition

Pill x Def Jam Rapstar. Another “teaser” ad for Def Jam’s long awaited “Rapstar” video game. This time they enlist artist Pill as he breaks down his song “Glass.” Still no actual footage of the game. Esso previously was enlisted in the campaign as well so make sure to check that one as well. Via: RapRadar

Just because this kicks ass. The new trailer to God of War 3 which hits stores next month. 

Beyonce x Nintendo. As we reported a couple of weeks back, Beyonce and Nintendo are teaming up again for a new game called “Style Savvy” which is a fashion game for the DS. Check the behind-the-scenes video of the photoshoot and TV ad campaign.

The Game promotes Mass Effect 2 in a SyFy TV special documentary with other celebs, creators, & experts discussing the game which has already sold 2 million copies in its first week of sales.

Esso x Def Jam Rapstar. Def Jam and game developer 4mm games continue to tease out their upcoming rap battle game “Rapstar” since they still don’t have an official launch date. So far their campaign has been pretty “abstract” focusing more on emotion and personality of hip-hop in general vs. actually showing any footage of the game. The latest teaser ad comes courtesy of Esso who pays respect to all that’s great in hip-hop.

As you all know by now the classic NBA Jam will be making their long-awaited return through EA Sports and exclusively through the Wii. Now we have the first screenshots which are of the Lakers vs. Celtics. You will notice the first pic stays pretty close to the original game but without the cartoon bodies.

On the pic after the jump though you will see that the players’ actual faces will be used in the game. Five separate facial expressions will be recorded for each player. Check the rest after the jump. Via: Koalition

WoooHa can confirm with various unofficial sources inside Activision that despite weak sales, the DJ Hero brand will continue to roll out a “DJ Hero 2″ game. No time table has been set for the release but the production company Freestyle Games has already started development on the second game version and is looking for new talent including the ideal signing of DJ Qbert to the DJ Hero franchise.

While the second game will roll out, Activision will continue to sell its current DJ Hero controller console and will not be releasing a newer version. Let’s hope the second game can generate some stronger sales for this struggling franchise.

Timbaland x Rockstar Games. Although Timbaland is not featured in this latest Beaterator video game, a host of underground artists including Chino Man and Psycho Les are. The video/ad is part of a joint promotion with Wax Poetics. Via: ProHipHop

Michael Jackson x PlayStation 3. Sony sure is milking everything out of Michael Jackson’s movie This Is It. Check this Michael Jackson x Sony PS3 package where instead of packaged with a video game it comes packaged with This Is It. The actual PS3 though is not branded with MJ but instead you get a nifty collectors box. Ok not really…but you get a controller. Via: Koalition

Those young’ns out there who don’t know what NBA Jam is are missing out. The classic 2-on-2 arcade game is back and better than ever as EA Sports has bought the rights to the game and plans to release it on the Wii. The plan is to make all the crazy dunks including the 360s, “on fire” dunks, triple flips, etc. executed through various crazy hand motions on your Wii controller.

Even better, since EA took over the franchise rights from Midway, plans are underway to include a heavy hip-hop inspired soundtrack and give it the EA Trax treatment. No word yet on release date but we can’t wait for this one. I dare anyone to stack up against my Shawn Kemp and Benoit Benjamin Sonics duo.

Kid Milli x Rapstar. Def Jam gives Kid Milli the spotlight in their new Def Jam Rapstar video game ad as he freestyles on the streets of China Town. Check the full teaser trailer out as well.

The marketing for Def Jam’s Rapstar goes into full swing heading into the holiday season with this new trailer which plays more like a TV spot/teaser. The hip-hop heads will notice the cameos from Esso, Just Blaze and more. Check out the newly expanded site DefJamRapstar.com for more info.

The publishers need to be careful about the price point on this one. DJ Hero’s above $100 price point really hindered it from taking off as gamers become more choosy about what plastic instruments enter their homes. Via: The Koalition
