I definitely hope Crysis 2's Nanosuit comes with reinforced leg armor — all those long falls makes me cringe and think of shattered kneecaps.

Video Blips

• An entrenched position crumbles after Alcatraz is done with it in Crysis 2. I wish I could augment my strength simply by staring at my fingertips.

Continue after the break for Trine 2's vivid visuals, a young girl's Swarm-themed artwork, and the launch trailer for the mobile version of the beat 'em up classic Double Dragon.

 

• Trine 2's environmental puzzles cleverly blend into each stage's detailed background. I think someone ratcheted up the game's "color saturation" value to overwhelm my eyeballs with vibrancy.


• Meet the most disturbed little girl in the world in Swarm's European launch trailer. Now my easily influenced mind will forever associate the blue-colored crayon with Swarmite blood and endless torment.


• Double Dragon returns for more face punching action on mobile devices. I skipped over the Double Dragon craze back in the '80s, mostly because I hadn't learned to walk yet.
