Leviathan: Warships Launches Today
I thought I'd seen the weirdest trailer of the day after watching the Killer is Dead trailer, but it's been topped. Leviathan: Warships, a real-time naval combat title from Paradox and Pieces Interactive, has you battle boats with up to three friends. Exactly how the marketing department got from that to the above video is beyond me, but it's still pretty much the funniest thing I've seen all day. "I'm not buying this ship."

New Killer Is Dead Trailer “Reveals” All
Suda 51 is at it again. The latest trailer for Killer is Dead shows off the many women lead Mondo Zappa will meet over the course of his adventure. Whether flying around on magical needles or acting the femme fatale, it's going to be interesting to see how these crazy exaggerated characters and romantic entanglements work out.

Too Trusting, Dumb or Just Gullible? – What the Fake Phantom Pain Video Says about Gamers
The Phantom Pain: Project Deception video is fake. The person who created it has given it all up in the YouTube comments of their latest video. His last two submissions on N4G have been massively successful stories about his video (although there doesn't seem to be a specific link between him and the writers who wrote those articles). He even took to IGN, defending the video and egging people on. This is a person who has deceived under the guise of some sort of social experiment.

Metro: Last Light ‘Redemption’ Trailer
If there was one thing you could say about Metro 2033, it's that it looked fantastic. Whatever other complaints you may have had, it was graphically beyond more or less anything else out there. It's nice to see Last Light seems to be going the same way. The trailer above, entitled Redeption, sets the scene nicely, whilst showing off the great visual quality (although limited to 720p) and occasional battle scene.

Best Anti-Piracy Measure Ever? – Game Dev Tycoon Pirates the Pirates
When the developers behind Game Dev Tycoon released a cracked version of their own game, they edited it so that the game performed in a slightly different way. Sooner or later, the player will begin to notice that their funds are dwindling and that their best games aren’t bringing in the money that they should. Why? Because their games are being pirated. As their funds gradually decline, a message appears: “While many players play our new game, they steal it…

Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D Runs at 30FPS
The original Donkey Kong Country Returns for the Wii ran at a smooth 60FPS, an impressive feat considering the hardware and just how good that game looked. The 3DS port, coming next month, is instead locked at 30FPS. This isn't a good thing, but considering that the graphics still look great and that there's plenty happening on screen at any given time, it's hard to complain too much.
