What was presumably meant to be a sexy and inspiring trailer for Replay Studio's Velvet Assassin instead manages to bring to mind the disturbing image of Sir Winston Churchill in a bloody nightie. More »

Replay Studios creative director and co-founder Sascha Jungnickel has some very important things to say about their upcoming stealth action game, the recently renamed Velvet Assassin. This game contains no ass monsters, or for that matter - tits monsters. While I am sure he mentions something about hiding in dynamic shadows or the atmospheric lighting, as soon as he drops the ass monster bomb the only thing I hear when watching this clip now is "Ass Monster, ass monster, ass monster." The two phrases shall henceforth be an important part of the Fahey vernacular. Thank you, Mr. Jungnickel. More »

Gamecock and developer replay studios have announced a brand new name for their upcoming World War II stealth-action game for next-gen consoles and PC - Velvet Assassin. Much, much better.
"Rather than a trite, overused, and generic working title like 'Sabotage,' 'Velvet Assassin™' captures the heart of what we're trying to accomplish," said Sascha Jungnickel, Creative Director at Replay Studios. "From the start we've wanted a game with a strong female lead that stays true to the history of Violette Szabo while pulling players into a world of dark intrigue."
Mind you I have terrible issues with the stealth genre, but I will slightly more remorse passing up Velvet Assassin when it releases this Fall than I would have not buying Sabotage. Hit the jump for a larger picture featuring the main character's leather-clad bottom. More »

Beloved *chokes* video game filmmaker Uwe Boll finished filming his Vietnam war movie 'Tunnel Rats' earlier this year, and now he is financing a game based off of the film. Developed by German developer Replay Studios, Tunnel Rats will be a dark and gritty take on the war FPS, sharing the film's focus on the overall senselessness and madness of war rather than the heroism and bravery most games in the genre tend to highlight. The film's stars Michael "Eddie and the Cruisers" Pare, Nate Parker, Brandon Fobbs and Erik Eidem have all signed on to provide their likenesses for the game, which would be amazingly exciting if I knew who any of them were other than Eddie there.
