Babel Rising should've been named 'Babel Falling,' this trailer suggests
What would life be like if you could fell entire civilizations with a flick of your wrist, crush hordes of men with a downward swat and destroy worlds with a ridiculous, wide-armed downhill skiing motion? You'd either be Lord Voldemort, or you'd be playing Babel Rising on Kinect, like the stylish young man in the video above.Babel Rising is set to launch in June for PlayStation Move and Xbox 360's Kinect.
Babel Rising gets wrathful trailer, screens
Benevolence is soooo New Testament. Babel Rising is about getting old school on those pesky mortals. The XBLA/PSN (PS3) version of the popular iPhone game will hit this spring. It'll also burn, ignite, crush and bring forth plagues.

Ubisoft has had a string of high-profile (and notably high-quality!) digital releases over the years; everything from Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game to Outland to the unreleased combo of I Am Alive and Shoot Many Robots. You can add a third game to this latest crop: Babel Rising, a "next-generation version of the popular iPhone game of the same name." That iPhone game tasked players with inhabiting the role of God and preventing builders from completing the tower for as long as possible; we'll leave the religious interpretation of that futility to you. Ubisoft has partnered with Mando Productions, a French developer which took over development of the iOS game, to bring the experience to Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The hook: touch controls are out and motion controls are in. Babel Rising will support both Kinect and PlayStation Move, as well as competitive and cooperative multiplayer modes. If you can't wait until the "calendar year 2012" release date, we'd suggest trying out the iOS version for a buck – that's a small price to pay to play God.%Gallery-137718%
