BioWare recently released a handful of videos promoting the upcoming expansion to its humongous RPG Dragon Age: Origins – Awakening. In the first, posted above, we meet dwarven legionnaire Sigrun, tasked with returning to the old fortress of Kal’hirol. There’s talking Darkspawn, those merry band of adventurers known as the “Legion of the Dead,” and even a cameo from our old friend Oghren.

The additional two videos (which come to us via IGN) are simply B-roll, but that means gameplay footage. You’ll get a look at some of the new characters in action and even some vistas of the new environments. We get it, it’s not much, but you’ve got less than a month until this old-school expansion pack (remember those?) slays its way to retailers.

Left 4 Dead 2’s Midnight Riders get a gloriously bearded teaser page

Zombie obliterators who’ve managed to survive Left 4 Dead 2’s “Dark Carnival” campaign are probably familiar with the Southern rock outfit known as the Midnight Riders. While they’re not exactly an enormous focus in the game’s overarching story, a teaser page featuring the heavily bearded band (and a cryptic “Coming Soon”) is leading some folks to believe that the Riders will soon play a much larger role in the game’s proceedings.

Given the number of facial hair-sporting members of the band (see: four), we’re really hoping to get some form of DLC that turns them into playable characters. Perhaps even a new campaign, in which they cure the global zombie infection using nothing but the power of their rock music. How about it, Valve?

Mexican Water Monster

Although beauty is in the eye of the beholder, most would agree the Mexican axolotl has very unique appearance! The strange-looking salamander, also known as the Mexican Water Monster, is facing extinction.

According to a recent study conducted by scientists from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), it is estimated that only 700 to 1,200 Mexican axolotl, Ambystoma mexicanum, exist in the wild today. The situation is critical and urgent action is required.
