Telling me about how much fun your game will be is one thing.  Showing me however, leaves a much more lasting impression.  And that is just what Twisted Pixel has done regarding their upcoming XBLA game The Maw.  Aliens + Kameo-style transforming powers + solid music = expectations raised.

And they've got reason to flaunt it since they were just chosen as a finalist for the PAX 10.  And I heard somewhere that the guys from Penny Arcade know a tad about games.  Check out the official trailer here and then check out the other games vying for the coveted "Audience Choice Award" at this year's PAX.

Short Press Release after the break.
