A Very Different Look At Old Games Mags

Game That Actually Looks Next-Gen Gets Its First Trailer
Part of this teaser you're about to watch is live-action. Other parts are generated by an all-new bleeding-edge graphics engine. And, even if you can tell what's been recorded in reality and what's generated by software, you have to admit that the border between the two looks like it's dissolving.

A Beer With a Clean, Crisp Taste That Says 'Anomaly: Warzone Earth'
Why would a tower defense "offense" game be the perfect inspiration for a beer? Because "warzone," spelled exactly that way, in Polish means "brewed." And the guys behind the Polish-developed Anomaly: Warzone series like to hoist a pint, too.

Gorgeous Model Aircraft Make you Realise Your Childhood was Wasted
Did you build model planes as a kid? I did. F-14s, F-4s, F-18s, even the odd Mig-29. For a kid I like to think I did OK, gluing wings together and painting garish camo patterns on everything, but after seeing these models I feel despondent.

If It's a PC Exclusive with No Multiplayer, You Better Believe Hard Reset's Trailer is All About Gameplay
The Polish super-team building the cyberpunk FPS Hard Reset must think it's 1996 or something. The game is a PC exclusive, has no multiplayer, and although it was announced earlier last month, it's coming out later this year. That's how things used to get done around here.

Don't Think Of This As Mass Effect 3 "Fan Art"

Ten Minutes of Batman: Arkham Asylum — in Polish
I was particularly impressed by his ziplining up to a guard tower and clonking a sniper, forehead-first, into the railing. Of course, it required the guy to be completely oblivious to a 200-pound man grappling to the floor he was standing on, but hey. It's Batman. Also, what's up with the x-ray vision mode?
