In the trailer, the Diesel-powered Riddick ponders the nature of desperation, or does the best that he can considering the limited resources he is working with . "Where there's desperation, there's opportunity", is certainly a true statement. Not so sure about the whole, "I'm hell's messenger" bit though. I mean, if you're killing people all day, wouldn't you be more of a delivery boy? Unless the gameplay consists solely of you sneaking up behind people and whispering, "Hell says hi" and then running like hell, I cry foul.

The new title will be CoR: Assault on Dark Athena, named after the scavenger ship on which the additional single player content takes place on, supposedly extending the solo experience by 40%. On top of that, the game will also feature a multiplayer mode as well as the developer's commentary that was included on the PC version of the original.

Being an inordinately large Riddick fan (I own a pair of his curved dagger thingies), I am extremely excited to get another shot at Butcher Bay. Hell, the thought of just playing the original one again is compelling enough...new content and multiplayer are just icing on the cake. Just one question - How do I get eyes like those?
