Kickstarting Leisure Suit Larry

http://kck.st/Haj4Fx

The original creator of Leisure Suit Larry has come out of the woodwork with a new kickstarter project that is set to make much nostalgia explode out of many gamers’ hearts!

Al Lowe is keen to get this remake of the original underway and asks for $500k. A hefty amount but in two days they are close to $100k, so it looks like they will reach their goal quickly as the project gains more notoriety.

PLEDGE AWAY!

Transformers: Fall of Cybertron trailer

This new Transformers title is a direct sequel to the previous one – War for Cybertron. That game has been hailed as the best Transformers game ever made. This new trailer for Fall of Cybertron puts everything people love about giant robots fighting giant robots in a world filled with giant robots. Dubstep seems to […]

Orion: Dino Beatdown – Dinosaurs, jetpacks, guns. What else do you need?

If I ever got the chance to go back in time and have the opportunity to come face-to-face with a dinosaur – I’d probably want to shoot it in the face… with a futuristic weapon of some kind! After which I would merrily zoom away on my jetpack to search for some more prehistoric lizards […]

Max Payne 3 multiplayer – Rockstar explains

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arwWmSlUKLs&feature=g-all-u&context=G2db40f4FAAAAAAAACAA

Rockstar busts out with a new Max Payne 3 vid going into detail on the the multiplayer in the up-coming film noir bloodcapade – Max Payne 3.

The question on everyone’s mind, well certainly mind, is the use of bullet-time in a multiplayer environment. According to this only the player using it and those in his/her field of view will be effected. Does include people that aren’t in your field of view but can still see you? They didn’t say…

No matter, Max Payne 3 is looking jaw-droppingly awesome and I am a huge fan of the series from day one. Some interesting game modes are highlighted too 🙂

Yet another behind-the-scenes video release introducing us to another slightly alluring yet horrific enemy in the upcoming Bioshock Infinite. The Siren. Raising the dead with her sultry voice… although the vid eludes to a more banshee-type SCREEEEEEEEEAM!

Far Cry 3 – New trailer (I must be hallucinating)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=X0c7P-GI0CU

The new trailer for Far Cry 3 looks like every trance-head Navy Seal’s dream. Psychedelic drugs are synthisised with military-grade violence as the main character is plunged into all-out tropical chaos.

The trippy nature of this jungle blood bath is a lot more entertaining than having to deal with malaria… why Far Cry 2… why!?

Straight from the horse’s mouth, here is a summary of what the game is going to involve:

“Beyond the limits of civilization lies an island, a lawless place ruled by piracy and human misery, where your only escapes are drugs or the muzzle of a gun. This is where you find yourself, trapped in a place that’s forgotten right from wrong, a place that lives by the principles of violence. Discover the island’s bloody secrets and take the fight to the enemy; improvise and use your environment to survive. Beware the beauty and mystery of this unexplored paradise and live to outwit its roster of ruthless, desperate characters.
You’ll need more than luck to survive.”

More than luck, ey? How about some drugs?

Well the teaser was pretty exciting, but this video really explains why the next SimCity is going to simulate pure awesome! Let’s hope this time I can keep my budget in check while chilling to the smooth jazz I remember so fondly from previous SimCity titles.

Prey 2 – Boba Fett FPS (pretty much)

Although this was announced almost a year ago, it is still an exciting release for 2012. Bounty hunting in space is just the coolest thing this side of the galaxy. The release date is not final but let us all be optimistic and expect a 2012 release… probably for the Christmas rush! The system is […]

Max Payne 3 – visual effects and the cinematic experience

Mmmm my private area feels strange. Somebody get me a tissue. Max Payne 3 is looking sexier by the behind-the-scenes video release. In this trailer from the ever-illustrious Rockstar Games, we find out just how cinematic and tasty looking the new Max Payne is going to be. Although I may miss the finer touch of […]
