Spike VGA Recap Part 2: Announcement Trailers for ‘Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim’ & ‘Thor: God of Thunder’

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion was one of the best titles in the early days of the XBox 360, giving players hundreds of hours of gameplay when there was little else in terms of content available for the system. The early concept of a living world filled with characters who would hold conversations amongst themselves and go on their daily routine without interaction from the player coupled with an awesomely fun first person combat roleplaying game earned Oblivion a spot as an early highlight in this generation of console’s lifecycle.

Finally, Bethesda has released official word on the next installment to the Elder Scrolls saga entitled The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Whether or not Patrick Steward will lend his voice to the next iteration of the game remains to be seen but the events of Oblivion look to tie in directly to the release of the denizens of Skyrim on the Elder Scrolls world.

When Sega announced they would be working on the Thor video game, the video game community responded with an astounding, “Please, not another Iron Man 2.” Now, with the full force of the Thor movie marketing to help drive it, the Thor: God of Thunder video game will make its way to consoles on May 3rd.

Interestingly enough following the announcement of both Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston taking on the vocal roles of their on screen counterparts, only Hemsworth’s voice is present in the trailer.

Take a look at the trailers for both games after the jump. Also, be sure to check out our coverage of the Uncharted 3 and Batman: Arkham City trailers from earlier today.

    Mazda 6 Or a mazdaspeed 6. . I have an ’05 Mazda 6 GT 4cyl now and absolutly love it. it has been reliable and great in the snow. However if I had to do it all over again I would get the Mazdaspeed 6, same car but 274HP and AWD. I test drove one and It knocked my socks off. Some dealers may have some ’06 models left witch will net quite a savings over a ’07 model and there was no major diff. Do yourself a favour and at least test drive one.
