Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City has gone all action…
… and Leon Kennedy looks really shiny. There’s another Resident Evil game with a rather uninspired name on the way, and it looks like we’ll be playing it as a whole new cast of multi-lingual super-secret Umbrella soldiers – also they don’t seem very nice. Read More ››
Aperture Science Investment Ads
*edit*: Portal 2 will have a worldwide release on Steam – Tuesday 19th April 2011. The retail release date is slightly staggered, being Tuesday for North America, but Europe has to inexplicably wait ’til Thursday. Looks like Steam is the way to go.
PORTAL 2 IS OUT NEXT WEEK!
Ahem… If you’ve got Portal 2 pre-ordered on Steam, feel free to begin pre-loading it right now. If you do, it means you’ll be able to play the second it gets unlocked, which will be Thursday in the UK/Europe, or Tuesday night if you’re lucky enough to live in America. Damn yanks. Anyway, Valve have been making some hilarious Aperture Science ‘Investment Ads’ over the last couple of weeks, and they’re embedded below.
Dino D-Day First Impressions
“We regret to inform you that your son has been eaten by dinosaurs in the line of duty.” Dino D-Day is out, and I’ve just been playing it. Pitching the Allies vs Nazi dinosaurs in a WW2 setting is pretty fun, it seems. It would be unfair to judge the game on the mere 40 minutes I spent checking it out, so take a look at some amusing screenshots I gathered below.
Crysis 2 Launch Trailer
Crysis 2 is out in America already, and we’re getting ours on Friday here in the UK. It looks stunning, and many reviews are claiming it to be the best-looking console game ever. I’m quite gutted that its had to be dumbed down for them frankly, but theres no denying the game still looks fantastic. Paul and I have been preparing ourselves for it by revisiting the original Crysis, and the semi-sequel Warhead all this week, which I finally got around to finishing. It still looks gorgeous even after a few years. Click below to see the launch trailer for Crysis 2.
Batman Arkham City Gameplay Trailer
Ooooh yes, this is looking good. New trailer for Batman Arkham City is below and it shows off Batman doing what he does best, in the form of swooping around and battering nutters. The city itself looks great too, I look forward to exploring its dark alleys and moody streets, and should prove to be a vastly different environment to the original Asylum.
Call of Juarez: The Cartel trailer
There’s a new Call of Juarez game coming out, and its going in a very different direction. Scrapping the wild west setting for a modern one is a bold move – don’t we have enough modern shooters these days? Call of Juarez’s Wild West felt like a breath of fresh air in a genre saturated with modern shooters. Still, if this trailer is anything to go by, they’re at least trying to keep the themes of lawmen vs outlaws, and I’m certainly interested enough to keep my eye on it. It’s due out in Summer 2011. See the trailer below.
Telltale making Jurassic Park
Telltale have been busily making fun point and click adventure games for a while now, with mostly good results. I didn’t play any of the new Sam and Max games, admittedly, but I tried the Strong Bad and Monkey Island episodes, and they seemed alright. Just nothing spectacular. Then recently, they’ve been trying some new game ideas such as Late Night At the Inventory, a simple but entertaining poker game. They also made the surprise jump to a more mainstream popular franchise in Back to the Future (the second episode of which is out today, in fact). Still, none of these have piped my interest as much as the prospect of a JURASSIC PARK GAME! YEEEAH!
RAGE – New Trailer
We haven’t mentioned id’s Rage around here yet, and with a new trailer out today which shows off some of the gameplay, nows as good a time as any to fix that. I’m pretty excited about the prospect of Rage – the makers of Doom and Quake know what makes a good FPS, and since this is the first new IP of theirs in over a decade I reckon that excitement is more than justified.
Crysis 2 story trailer
It’s been 4 years since Crysis, the PC exclusive beast which became the graphical benchmark for all modern shooters. For a while we were waiting in anticipation of what Crytek’s next game would look like, expecting another leap forward in graphical deliciousness. Crysis 2 is now only a month away from release, and though it doesn’t appear to be as great a leap forward in the visual department as we expected, (lets thank the console toys for that) it still looks fantastic. See the new 3 minute story trailer below.
Battlefield 3 Teaser Trailer!
Finally! An awesome little teaser trailer for Battlefield 3 has been released, and most importantly, you can quite clearly see a jet. A JET! After Bad Company simplified the series a little, taking away the ability to go prone,and worse, the JETS, we are very happy to see they are going back to the old way of doing things with BF3 by bringing all that back. Very, very happy. Let’s just hope they take the Destruction 2.0 from Bad Company and plonk it right in here.
And apparently.. it’s due out Autumn this year. Yay!
Deus Ex 3 info overload
RockPaperShotgun have a whole load of new information about Deus Ex 3. I’m more excited about this game than any other this year, and if you ever played the original Deus Ex, I’m sure you’re equally as keen to get your hands on it. It sure does look as though they’re doing everything they can to produce a faithful prequel to the original, and put the misstep that was Invisible War in the past. Trailer below.
