Ridge Racer Unbounded Teaser Video (PS3, 360, PC)

Rather than being developed by Namco, like Ridge Racer 3D for the 3DS, this one is being handled by Bugbear Entertainment. You may or may not know them for the FlatOut series, racers with a heavy focus on vehicle destruction (and human ejection). Whereas the Ridge Racer series typically rewards you with usable boosts for drifting, drafting, and passing without hitting barriers or other racers, Unbounded will mix things up by "adding a punishing dose of destruction". The trailer says to expect it in 2012.

The FlatOut series was fairly well liked by those seeking some destructive racing, and it seems like Unbounded will follow that formula, maybe with a bit more class. I like my racers arcadey, so I'll keep an eye on this.

Anarchy Reigns, a New Game From PlatinumGames (the makers of Madworld, Bayonetta)(PS3/360)

Shortly known as Max Anarchy, this game from PlatinumGames is an online third-person multiplayer brawler coming to the PS3 and 360 this fall. The game's director, Masaki Yamanaka said this of the game:

 "Anarchy Reigns is unique in that allows a large number of players to go fist to fist in online multiplayer battles. The challenge of creating a brawler like this is second to none, but neither is the gameplay. The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat are both amped far beyond what you would ever experience in a shooter. I'm making this the game that I have always wanted to play, and I won't stop until that goal is met. I hope you all look forward to brawling online."

Screenshots show that there will be quite a selection of brawlers, including a very familiar looking chain-saw wielder:

For a game that seems somewhat MMO-ish, the detailing looks very impressive, but I personally don't have an interest in this kind of competitive third-person perspective brawler.
