Video Blips: World of Warcraft, Assassin’s Creed, GoldenEye, and More

With the fiery Deathwing's impending reappearance in the unwitting lands of World of Warcraft's Azeroth, anyone not wearing a 1,000-SPF sunblock is going to have a very bad day.

Video Blips:

• Azeroth crumbles beneath the potent rage of Deathwing, the main antagonist of World of Warcraft: Catacylsm. I would be pretty pissed off too if hot metal was being repeatedly hammered into me.

Continue after the break for a seriously twisted clown in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, the forging of GoldenEye 007's story, and an instructional video on Shaun White Skateboarding's controls.

 

• Psycho harlequin aside, the ear-pumping music for this Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood trailer is its only saving grace. I wonder how the various denizens of this Renaissance town can go about their business oblivious to the depraved clown stabbing about 40 people.

• GoldenEye 007's writer, Bruce Feirstein, hopes his story will remain faithful to the 1995 film. It's simple: Include lots of explosions, orchestral fanfares, and replace Daniel Craig's likeness with that of Pierce Brosnan, arguably the best Bond actor ever. Arguably.

• Pulling off tricks in Shaun White Skateboarding is a simple matter of finger dexterity. Someone went a little overboard with the staggering amount of editing and graphic design in this clear-cut controls video.
