Van Helsing Does Diablo. At Least, That’s What This Game Looks Like.

NeocoreGames’ The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing was recently released on Steam to little fanfare. It looks fairly impressive for a $15 RPG, even though I get Diablo vibes so strong I can practically hear the menu music. They made a hell of a launch trailer, at least.

MCV reports thatCapcom has cancelled the “blood-filled swimming pool” promo event that they were planning to throw in London this weekend in celebration of the release of Resident Evil Revelations. The event was called off due to yesterday’s terrorist attack in Woolwich, London

Silas Greaves of Gunslinger Really Loves Shooting Guys in the Face

Case in point: a four-minute (!) launch trailer, consisting of Mr. Greaves shooting people in the face with a wide variety of weapons. While Techland’s latest entry into the Call of Juarez brand of shooters is looking better by the minute, I can’t help but be wary after The Cartel. We’ll see. Call of Juarez:…

Morrowind even hadfishing poles. No way to use them, though.

Siliconera reports that Sega has trademarked the name “Sonic Lost World” in Europe. Normally this is where I’d make a joke about dinosaurs, but Lost World is also the name of a jungle ruins-themed stage in Sonic Adventure. Coincidence?! … Yeah, probably.

Sanctum 2, whose younger brother we talked about a little while ago, is out. It’s looking… blue. And gray. Also fun. Corridor shooting in corridors crafted by me? Yes please.
