Since Mortal Kombat wasn’t dumb enough they added Kratos. In this video you’ll see him stabbing, shooting, slow motioning, bear arming, and QTEing, yes it seem Kratos will have QTE based fatalities. The ugly Playstation buttons pop up on the screen just like a real God Of War game! Enjoy your stupid, Sony fans.
Capcom with has reached a new level in their port lust, according to the new issue of Famitsu, Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil Code Veronica are making their way to the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3, in some form. Whether these will be quicky ports like Resident Evil 2 on Gamecube and Archives on the Wii, or if they’ll be more substantial upgrades like Resident Evil Remake for Gamecube is yet to be seen.
In any case, these are two of the best Resident Evil games ever made, it goes 4 > 2 > Veronica for those of you not familiar with the series. No matter how sloppy the ports, at least we can rest easy knowing that there’s no way they’ll be any worse than the shame of the series Resident Evil 5.
According to Deap Silver, developers of Dead Island, the ESRB was none too happy with their homage to lynching, and insisted they remove the strung up human shaped being from the palm tree. Deep Silver complied, and replaced it with a more logical shambling zombie. They say the in-game logo will remain unchanged.
Square-Enix-Eidos finally released an actual in engine gameplay trailer for Batman Arkham City, and it look a hell of a lot like Arkham Asylum, but bigger, which is good enough. Check out the trailer, and decide for yourself who’s hotter Harley Quinn, or Catwoman.
Square-Enix in their infinite wisdom has seen fit to cancel the multiplayer downloadable title Gun Loco. The game should have been finished by now, and someone at Square must have finally looked at it. Good riddance.
They put out a new Brink gameplay trailer today. Seems like we’ve seen a lot of this game, but not really enough, perhaps that reflects the substance of the game itself, or just a promotional strategy. This trailer attempts to show off the class weapons, and I suppose it looks alright, as really uninteresting games go this one seems to have technically capable graphics at least, too bad the art is so terrible that that doesn’t really matter.
Check it out!
Grasshopper put out this Halloween video for Shadows Of The Damned today. Not much more to see since the Tokyo Game Show reveal.
Sony’s been showing off a lot of stuff at Gamescom this week. They announced Ratchet & Clank All 4 One, a four player co-op action game, and knowing Insomniac it’s sure to be boring and sell horribly. Here’s the trailer:
Sony showed off one of their Move titles, The Fight, at Gamescom this week. This trailer features Danny Trejo, better known as Machete. The game isn’t looking to hot right now hopefully Sony can come up with something a bit more robust for the core gamer by the time the Move is released.
It seems Bioware isn’t changing strategies when it comes to advertising Dragon Age games. Present a God of War style we’re so hardcore attitude, and then cover it in blood. Dissappointing that they continue to treat the most traditional franchise they have, and the fans of classic western style RPG’s with so little respect.
