God, how I love that seventies, B-movie charm. Shank comes out later tonight for PlayStation 3 and will be arriving for the Xbox 360 tomorrow. It only stands to reason that we would see one of these "launch trailer" things on the eve of its release. If you think it looks badass, I would be inclined to agree with you.

In addition to the game's release, you can now download the entire Shank soundtrack for free from Klei Entertainment's website. It's short but sweet and atmospheric. Plus, the price is nothing to balk at.

If you'll excuse me, I'll be spending the next eighteen hours or so watching the PlayStation Store, waiting for the game to become available.

@ Occams

This makes me sad but like Scott Pilgrim the multiplayer is only local. So definitely co-op with a buddy but not us...buddy /sadface
