Capcom showed off new trailers for these games at their ultra elite Captivate press event in Rome last week, but now they’re available to the general public for mass consumption. And they’re not even trying to sell it as DLC! Thanks, Capcom!
Hit the jump for trailers, hype, hoopla, and obligatory reaction gifs.

Lost Planet 3 Cinematic Trailer
Check out Capcom’s obvious attempt at marketing to a western audience. Could that dude be any more intentionally white? He’s like a space barbarian version of Nathan Drake. Not saying it’s a bad thing, just that’s it’s obvious a table of designers thought his overall caucasion-ness out way too much. This has lots of potential to not suck because of the fact that giant mechs disguised as glacial mountains are awesome, but they’re made even more awesome when they’re fighting giant bug aliens that burst from the icy ground. This game needs to be Shadow of the Colossus, only you get to be a colossus too. This game needs to be Godzilla on Hoth.
Resident Evil 6 Cinematic Trailer
While there’s no gameplay in this one, it’s a gazillion times better than the first trailer in every conceivable way.
Leon: “I need you to fake our deaths.”
Leon: “Sherry? What are you doing here”
Ada: “So, you’re Wesker Junior…”
Trailer ends with Chris and Leon in a Mexican stand-off.
Dragon’s Dogma Undead Gameplay Trailer
Another attempt at appealing to western gamers. I played this at NYCC and wasn’t impressed. Why is everything so dark? And the characters move like sticky action figures. Not even name brand figures like G.I. Joe either, but shitty dollar store figures made with thick cheap paint. Everything about this game just seems lifeless, but I’m sure people will buy it because it has the word dragon in it and the explosions are pretty.
DmC Public Enemy Trailer
I only played the first Devil May Cry, but I never finished it, so I’m not particularly attached to this series. The new Dante looks like a Hispanic scene kid. And I would know — I used to be a Hispanic scene kid. Even had the same stupid haircut. (It was a phase. I’m over it. Whatever.) This looks pretty decent, but I’m expecting the obnoxious smart-ass comments and forced Hot Topic rebellious attitude to get really annoying really quick.
What do you guys think? Anything you’re especially pumped for?
