Capcom’s reveal of the PlayStation 3 and Nintendo 3DS Lost Planet spinoff EX Troopers is still only hours old, but this debut trailer offers more info on what to expect than anything we’ve read so far.

The bulk of the revealing gameplay footage pops up in the latter half of the trailer, with...

I was actually really surprised when cooking simulators took off the way they did when motion controls entered the scene. Then again, I shouldn’t have been since I know several people who wish they were great chefs just as much as others want to be rock stars or any other fantasy video games offer.
