Intriguing trailer for the new upcoming survival horror game from Sony. Judging from it, this will be a much more realistic, gritty affair than the usual zombie/post apoc game.
Of course a trailer is just a trailer – the one for Dead Island was spectacular too, but the game wasn’t all that special.
Interesting tech demo for augmented reality mobile games
A look at the technology behind the latest Max Payne installment.
Here in one conveniently packed playlist is the entirety of MW3′s cutscenes, in case you can’t be bothered actually playing the game. The difference between watching this and a big budget hollywood movie is extremely thin, testament to the quality and tech level games have arrived at over the years (Not to mention the budgets!!)
Preview trailer of the new Starcraft game, rendered entirely from the game engine.
Amy is a new zombie themed game developed by Paul Cuisset, creator of the classic Flashback game, soon to be released on all major platforms.
Reminiscent of Resident Evil 2′s Sherry Birkin escort scenes, this game seems to adress one issue that most zombie games seem to sidestep – protagonists are usually immune to the zombie infection, otherwise you couldn’t allow them to be injured at all by the game enemies. In this case, going against the flow, Cuisset has given us a protagonist who is already infected and has to manage the infection as part of the gameplay OR even use it as camouflage in some cases.
Fans continue to alternately rage and sigh as new characters are added to the roster and new versions of the game are released with tweaked gameplay and incremental improvements.
It’s hard to argue that if you were one of the early adopters then Capcom is squeezing you out for all you’re worth, but at the same time the game as it stands now has a huge roster of fighters from the most various sources, including some never seen before choices that have surprised a lot of the die hard fans of each franchise. Rocket Raccoon? Unexpected!
The upcoming Tin Tin movie adaptation already has a game version ready for launch, coming soon from Ubisoft
This is just a tech demo at the moment, but it looks sweet, a wall mounted touchscreen multiplayer battle fleet game, this sort of thing might be what it takes to get game arcades back in business… because I can’t imagine people being able to afford a whole wall TV just yet.
