Two areas inside the game were showcased, the first being the same basic demo we've seen over the past few months, which has morphed into the upcoming public demo. On the other hand, the second area featured never-before-seen areas and gameplay that hinted at what else the game is going to offer. More importantly, the new areas gave us a glimpse of cinematic sequences that offered some bits of information on the storyline. Given that we're gluttons for punishment and curious about the story, we dove right in to face any number of deaths in the promising game. </p><p> </p> <a href="http://www.gamespot.com/ps3/adventure/residentevil5/news.html?sid=6202542&mode=previews#" rel="popup:imageviewer nofollow" class="{'caption':'Sheva%27s+got+your+back+while+you+focus+on+more+important+things%2C+like+levers.','path':'2008\/352\/reviews\/929197_20081218_embed001.jpg','img':'1','pid':929198,'sid':6202542}"> <img class="thumb" src="http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/2008/352/reviews/929197_20081218_embed001.jpg" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Developer</span> <span style="font-weight: bold;">& Publisher</span>: <span class="data"></span>Capcom<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Genre</span>: Horror Action Advanture<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><cite></cite><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Website</span>: http://www.residentevil.com<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Console</span>: PS3, X360<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Wallpaper</span>: See <a href="http://www.residentevil.com/5/index.php?l=en&fbid=Cmu2Xurjo8M#/downloads/wallpapers"><span style="font-weight: bold;">here</span></a><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Released</span>: Mar 13 2009<br /><br /><embed id="mymovie" width="432" height="362" flashvars="playerMode=embedded&movieAspect=4.3&flavor=EmbeddedPlayerVersion&skin=http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/cne_flash/production/media_player/proteus/one/skins/gamespot.png&paramsURI=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gamespot.com%2Fpages%2Fvideo_player%2Fxml.php%3Fid%3D6202490%26mode%3Dembedded%26width%3D432%26height%3D362%2F" wmode="transparent" allowscriptaccess="always" quality="high" name="mymovie" style="" src="http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/cne_flash/production/media_player/proteus/one/proteus2.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed>Skeithhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13585998642247326754noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8756477366697774746.post-30389411747062489082008-12-31T20:55:00.000-08:002008-12-31T21:00:18.551-08:00Killzone 2<div class="boxshot"> <a href="http://www.gamespot.com/ps3/action/killzone2/index.html" rel="nofollow"> <img style="width: 157px; height: 126px;" src="http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/2003/all/boxshots2/928377_67440.jpg" alt="Killzone 2 Boxshot" /></a><br /><br />We take our most extensive look at Killzone 2's campaign by going a full six chapters deep.<br /><p> Because so much of the gaming public's attention is focused on scrutinizing every Killzone 2 screenshot to see whether the graphics will stack up to that infamous E3 2005 trailer, it's all too easy to forget that it's a real, honest-to-goodness game with a real, honest-to-goodness release date not far off. Sony recently reminded us of this by giving us the opportunity to play through the first six chapters of the campaign. What may not surprise you is that, yes, Killzone 2 is an absolute stunner in motion. But if you haven't been following the progress of the game, you'll be pleased to know that it's also an intense and exciting experience with the potential to work alongside Resistance 2 to provide a serious one-two punch of PlayStation 3-exclusive shooters. </p><p> </p><div class="embscreen_large"> <a href="http://www.gamespot.com/ps3/action/killzone2/news.html?sid=6201940&mode=previews#" rel="popup:imageviewer nofollow" class="{'caption':'Welcome+to+the+world+of+Killzone+2.+It%27s+a+pretty+one.','path':'2008\/338\/reviews\/928377_20081204_embed001.jpg','img':'001','pid':928377,'sid':6201940}"> <img class="thumb" src="http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/2008/338/reviews/928377_20081204_embed001.jpg" alt="" /></a> <p class="embscreen_caption"><a href="http://www.gamespot.com/ps3/action/killzone2/news.html?sid=6201940&mode=previews#" rel="popup:imageviewer nofollow" class="{'caption':'Welcome+to+the+world+of+Killzone+2.+It%27s+a+pretty+one.','path':'2008\/338\/reviews\/928377_20081204_embed001.jpg','img':'001','pid':928377,'sid':6201940}">Welcome to the world of Killzone 2.

Harada-san pointed out a few of the key characters to us such as Lars, a Swedish fighter sporting a rock star look, and Alisa Bosconovitch, a robot who can throw her head at opponents with explosive results, and can fire her limbs off. Meanwhile, Bob is an obese, barrel-chested American fighter who deliberately gained weight to improve his performance. Combined with his unusually fast speed, this should make him a formidable opponent. Leo is a German kung fu-style fighter with effeminate looks and a questionable gender. Zafina is the first Middle Eastern character to feature in the game; others to be included for the first time in a console version of the game are Dragunov and Lili, from the PSP's Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection. In total there are eight new characters since Tekken 5. </p><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Developer</span> <span style="font-weight: bold;">& Publisher</span>: <span class="data"></span>Namco Bandai Games<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Genre</span>: 3D Fighting<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Website</span>: <cite>http://www.tekken-official.j</cite>p<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Console</span>: X360, PS3, Arcd<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Wallpaper</span>: See <a href="http://www.tekken-official.jp/tk6ac/ss.html"><span style="font-weight: bold;">here</span></a><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Released</span>: Q4 2009<br /><br /><embed id="mymovie" width="432" height="362" flashvars="playerMode=embedded&movieAspect=4.3&flavor=EmbeddedPlayerVersion&skin=http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/cne_flash/production/media_player/proteus/one/skins/gamespot.png&paramsURI=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gamespot.com%2Fpages%2Fvideo_player%2Fxml.php%3Fid%3D6166064%26mode%3Dembedded%26width%3D432%26height%3D362%2F" wmode="transparent" allowscriptaccess="always" quality="high" name="mymovie" style="" src="http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/cne_flash/production/media_player/proteus/one/proteus2.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed>Skeithhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13585998642247326754noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8756477366697774746.post-24648516624945343582008-12-31T18:51:00.000-08:002008-12-31T19:01:49.476-08:00Halo 3: ODST<div class="boxshot"> <a href="http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/halo3untitledodstgame/index.html" rel="nofollow"> <img src="http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/2003/all/boxshots2/954261_113677.jpg" alt="Halo 3: ODST Boxshot" /></a><a href="http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/halo3untitledodstgame/index.html" rel="nofollow"> </a> </div><br />Bungie is working on a prequel campaign to its best-selling shooter, which focuses on an Oribital Shock Drop Trooper trapped behind enemy lines in New Mombasa....<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/2008/281/954261_20081008_screen001.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

For many years I’ve been asked by gamers around the world when POSTAL will appear on console. I’m so proud to be able to answer our fans' prayers."</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:Arial;"><b>POSTAL III</b> will include motion-captured performances by a wide array of celebrities – from film stars to Playboy Playmates – as well as a storyline that offers gamers vast latitude in terms of their behavior. "We've always maintained since publishing the original POSTAL that the game is only as violent as the player wants it to be and we're committed to expanding this unique form of gameplay in this next addition to the ongoing storyline," Desi vowed.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:Arial;">Andrew Belkin, Producer for Akella stated “We here at Akella are big fans of the POSTAL series and so being involved in production of <b> POSTAL III</b> is both great fun and an honor for us. In cooperation with RWS talent I believe <b> POSTAL III</b> will be the sickest and craziest game ever! Definitely, this is the first project of such scale and a major step forward for our company”</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:Arial;">The player will once again be cast as the nameless "Postal Dude," the star of all previous versions of the game, including POSTAL 2: Share The Pain and POSTAL 2: Apocalypse Weekend. <b> POSTAL III</b> is scheduled for release some time in 2008.</span></p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Tag</span> : Running with Scisor<br /><span class="label"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Genre :</span> Modern FPS<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Website</span> : http://www.gopostal.com/pr/postal3.php<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Console</span> : X360<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Release</span>:</span> <span>Q4 2009</span><a href="http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/postal3/index.html" rel="nofollow"></a><br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BA8nsvpA7FQ&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BA8nsvpA7FQ&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /></div>Skeithhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13585998642247326754noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8756477366697774746.post-80073855378355484012008-12-31T08:03:00.000-08:002008-12-31T18:22:05.068-08:00Dead Island<a href="http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/deadisland/index.html" rel="nofollow"> <img src="http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/2003/all/boxshots2/942713_94775.jpg" alt="Dead Island Boxshot" /></a><br /><br /><div class="boxshot"> <a href="http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/deadisland/index.html" rel="nofollow"> </a>Dead Island is a first-person shooter that pits you on an island full of zombies.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://media.teamxbox.com/games/ss/1827/1186588754.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 740px; height: 620px;" src="http://media.teamxbox.com/games/ss/1827/1186588754.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />KEY FEATURES:<br /><ul><li><b>Ultra-realistic combat</b> <ul><li>Intense and amazingly realistic hand-to-hand combat based on dynamic character moves and camera angles </li><li>Realistic physical reactions of opponents to hits </li><li>Exceptionally faithful and detailed damage model, showing damaged skin, muscles and even bones </li><li>Innovative system of targeting and hitting the opponents gives you precise control and a realistic combat feel </li></ul> </li><li><b>Advanced Artificial Life System</b> <ul><li>AL system allows you to take advantage of instinctive behaviors of groups and individual opponents </li><li>Living, breathing and dynamically changing ecosystem faced with the destructive influence of a spreading epidemic </li><li>Realistic and spontaneous NPC behavior </li><li>Through your actions, actively influence NPC reactions </li></ul> </li><li><b>Non-linear gameplay</b> <ul><li>Explore a vast, open world of a tropical island, on foot or in vehicles </li><li>Freedom of choosing your allies and completing tasks that bring you closer to the finale </li><li>Player decisions influence the way in which the game progresses, making it a multi-threaded story </li></ul> </li><li><b>Fully Interactive Environments</b> <ul><li>The ability to use all elements of the environment as weapons </li><li>A liquid, gas and electricity physics simulation system, which allows you to create your own unique ways of eliminating enemies </li></ul><br /> </li></ul><br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/bO4CGzxgw_Q&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/bO4CGzxgw_Q&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><a href="http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/deadisland/index.html" rel="nofollow"> </a> </div>Skeithhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13585998642247326754noreply@blogger.com0
