It's an odd week for gamers around the world. Europe's got a whopping nothing and Australia might as well have, Japan has its usual flood of DS titles, including some highly anticipated titles, and here in the U.S., we've got an odd mix hitting shelves.

  • Indianapolis 500 Legends
  • Luxor 2
  • MX vs. ATV: Untamed

Elements of Destruction makes carnage of its trailer

We don't think we can top the two hilariously horrible DS game trailers we showed you last week, but this one comes pretty close.

The premise behind the XBLA port Elements of Destruction is simple enough: you play as a force of nature and destroy a bunch of stuff. It's reminiscent of those times in Sim City when you'd send a bunch of natural disasters (and Godzilla) to mess up your town (you sick bastard), only this time you actually control the disasters.

Not only does the game look, well, bad, but the trailer just makes everything worse with its EXTREME!!! effects. You can't even see anything because flames, lightning, and tornadoes keep interfering with the screen. Maybe the team behind this trailer should have taken notes from the people who did the Crossfire commercial.

Check after the break to see some Elements screens, or we'll make sure the next meteor shower hits your mother's town.
