Link's transition into precision cutting in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is probably a direct callout to Metal Gear Solid: Rising's Raiden and his expertise at bisecting watermelons.
Video Blips:
• A new adventure awaits everyone's favorite Hyrulean hero in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. I suppose the inclusion of a full Wiimote graphic in the interface serves as a constant reminder that you're holding an off-white club in your hand.
Continue after the break for the maps, modes, and classes of Crysis 2's multiplayer, the US debut trailer of Catherine's campy premise, and your next zombie fix with Trapped Dead.
• If you haven't zipped up your Nanosuit and tried Crysis 2's multiplayer demo, this bombastic trailer will persuade you to join the fray. The pounding musical track leads me to believe that Crytek employed the same folks who scored Battlefield 3's teaser trailer.

• We already know that the ultra-bizarre Catherine is heading to the US this summer, but just in case you haven't experienced surrealistic sheepmen, here's a quick glimpse.

• Trapped Dead takes a page from the zombie flicks of the '80s by depicting the undead as shambling idiots. It was a simpler time back then: Keyboard neckties were in vogue, Michael Jackson was less scary, and zombies didn't bother with being fast or intelligent.
