Super Smash Bros. Brawl Gameplay From E for All
We recently found out that Super Smash Bros. Brawl was going to playable at E for All Expo. The first video demonstration of the game has come out of E for All today. The video shows Samus vs. Mario, and Link vs. Sonic, both in three-minute matches against NPCs, Mario and Sonic, with their difficulty set to 3. It also demonstrates both Samus’s and Sonic’s final smash moves, as well as Zero Suit Samus.

New Spore Video
A new video of Will Wright demoing Spore has surfaced. We haven’t heard a lot about Spore in a long time, so what makes this video especially interesting is that it actually provides some new information about the game. To start, players can add wings to their creatures, though it appears that they will be unable to fly. Another interesting thing is that some creatures will be massive, as in Godzilla huge. It’s unclear if players can create these dinosaur-sized creatures or if they will be creatures that are included in the game disk.

Gamecock Opens UK Office
Indie game publisher Gamecock (we can never take that name seriously) has founded an office in the UK in the quest to take the company worldwide. Currently the small company has only 12 employees based in Austin, Texas, but hopes the new office in the UK will open withing a few months. Currently the company is working on releasing Dementium: The Ward for the DS, Legendary: The Box (Xbox 360, PS3, PC) and Section 8 (PC, Xbox 360).
New Link’s Crossbow Training Screenshots
For those of you who were wondering about how exactly a Zelda game was going to work with the Wii Zapper, Nintendo has released a series of screenshots that effectively demonstrate the gameplay of Link’s Crossbow Training. It seems as though the game simply takes areas from Twilight Princess and adds monsters and targets to shoot, with an exception for the last image.
