Saints Row: The Third's new E3 trailer has hit the internet a little early. While it may not have the brevity and simple majesty of the the first trailer, which debuted on April 1st, it does have that Kanye West song "Power." You know which one I'm talking about.

Aliens: Colonial Marines has been in our database and on our news radar for quite some time. In fact, our first article about the game came more than three years ago in February. Delayed and pushed aside a few times, it seems the Gearbox developed title is finally going to see the light of day in the Spring of 2012.
