Sexy sprites: New Machinarium trailer gives me the vapors photo

How coincidental is it that the moment I added the recent Ali Larter/Beyoncé craptastic thriller Obsessed to my Netflix queue (just released on DVD!), a brand-new trailer for upcoming PC adventure game Machinarium pops into my inbox? Pretty coincidental, given the fact that -- just like Ali Larter -- I am also obsessed with a tall, striking black man.

And that black man is Machinarium.

Ever since I played through a near-final build of the point-and-click adventure game, I am having trouble thinking of anything else. Not only is Machinarium’s gameplay endlessly clever (don’t listen to grumpy Anthony!), the game is absolutely gorgeous -- maybe the prettiest adventure game ever created! And now you can see that beauty in motion!

Hit the jump to view the new trailer and be prepared to fall in love. But, just remember, I am the one obsessed with this game and am willing to do anything for it. And I mean anything.

Machinarium hits PCs in October 2009.

One of the prettiest adventure games I've seen since the Monkey Island series! Also, what do you mean by anything exactly? <_<

I hope he remains focused in all these context sensitive items. It would make me sad that a beautiful game like this is overly complicated.

Also, fucking beautiful trailer.

It looks pretty, but something about it makes it dreary to play. Maybe it's because everything is all dark and grey and filled with robots.

Now that's cool. I hope it doesn't suffer from "Gamefaqs" syndrome like most point and clickers with their stupid crazy logic.
