And no, I didn't mistype the headline. It's the first trailer for the PS3-destined The 2nd Super Robot Wars OG, which, technically, is the third game in the series, due in September. Well, it's the third if you count the original two GameBoy Advance titles, and skip Super Robot Wars OGs, the PS2 remake of those games. It seems Namco Bandai and Banpresto did the opposite, and now consider that game to be the "true" first.

In any case, the trailer is there, and it looks awesome, because in addition to all the 2D sprite mecha madness typical of any Super Robot Wars title, the opening CG displays various OG mecha in realistic, to-scale style. It's amazing, and reminiscent of the CG done for titles like Another Century's Episode, another crossover mecha franchise also owned by Banpresto.

Amazing. I didn't know the Angelg was that big, and I saw The Inspector anime series. Speaking of that, you can drop a hilarious amount of money on a special edition of the game that comes with the complete Blu-ray collection of the anime.

26 episodes of high-definition anime robot madness, followed by 20-odd hours of videogame high definition robot madness? That's just indulgent.
