Our love for King of Fighters XII is well-documented. These screens may help explain why. The highlight? Check out SNK’s take on those sexy, sexy French ladies. Subtle.
Sometimes a company files a patent with the intent of actually making something. Other times, it’s just to put a crazy idea down on paper. This patent from Sony Europe appears to be the latter. Spotted by serial patent stalkers SIliconera, it shows a toy car. With a camera attached. That makes “vroom vroom” noises…
Painkiller was released back in 2004, and…well, unless you were appreciative of its old-school charms, you’d be forgiven for having forgotten all about it. Which explains the arrival of a new Painkiller game! Yes, while you wait for a new Serious Sam to fill the hole in the “traditional shooter” market, JoWood are hoping you’ll…
On Sunday, Relic will release a patch for Dawn of War II. It’ll introduce not only a range of game balance tweaks and technical fixes, but a new multiplayer map as well. The map is called Tiber Outpost, and is geared towards six-player matches. As for the patch, you can read a full list of…
Blues News has spotted an interview on a Russian web site that reveals plans for not only a second S.T.A.L.K.E.R. expansion, but for a full-blown sequel as well. The website – whose name my keyboard just can’t reproduce – had an interview with GSC’s Sergey Grigorovitch, where he reveals plans for a second standalone expansion…
There are still plenty of things you have left to worry about should Shadow of the Colossus ever progress from “movie project” to “movie in production”. But a corny sidekick isn’t one of them. Justin Marks, the man writing the screenplay for the possible adaptation of Sony’s classic PS2 title, promised that in an interview…
This week’s PAL store update looks a lot like the North American one, except for one key difference. It’s got Worms. Just in case you never played it on PC, Amiga, Mega Drive, SNES, PlayStation, Xbox, Jaguar, Saturn, Amiga, Game Boy, Dreamcast, N-Gage, PlayStation 2, Xbox 360 or mobile phone, you can now play the…
Market research firm In-Stat have gazed into their crystal ball, rolled some goat’s knuckles and spilled some blood in a turtle shell to gaze into the distant future. And in gazing, they have found not a cure for cancer, nor a blueprint for a viable flying car or plans for a Demolition Man sequel, but…
None of the songs on Guitar Hero: Smash Hits will be a surprise, since they’re all songs that appeared on previous, guitar-only titles in the series. But still. You need to know what they are. Activision have today released a partial tracklist, showcasing 12 of the songs that will feature in the game. Since none…
Killzone 2 is out, which means people can stop obsessing over the game’s release and obsess over its downloadable content instead, the first of which has just been announced. It’s called the Steel & Titanium pack, and features two new multiplayer maps. The first one is Wasteland Bullet, which takes place on a couple of…
There’s a brilliant meta-game feature in Noby Noby Boy, which compiles every player’s “progress” in the game and uses it to propel a single “GIRL” across the solar system. But her progress is danger. See, it relies on lots of players playing lots of Noby Noby Boy for those cumulative figures to get her anywhere.…
Despite the first Silent Hill movie being, well, underwhelming for many, it obviously made enough money for a sequel. A sequel that will be made without original director Christophe Gans. Speaking with film site Bloody Disgusting, actor Radha Mitchell – who starred in the first film – said “I don’t think Christophe is attached. [That]…
.html?type=flv As promised, we got our first proper look at BioShock 2 tonight, complete with a Big Sister, a Big Daddy and an old “friend”.
Seems some people are getting early copies of this month’s issue of Game Informer. You know. The issue that has a ton of details on Assassin’s Creed 2. Provided, of course, that this is all correct (we haven’t seen the magazine ourselves), here’s some of the stuff you can expect from the sequel to one…
Poor Midway. If it’s not one thing, it’s another. The latest news to come out of the beleaguered firm’s bankruptcy proceedings suggest that the company will be completely out of cash by June. That grim revelation is contained in a statement issued to the courts by Midway owner Mark Thomas last week: Moreover, the Debtors…
Despite being largely overlooked in favour of louder, faster games, Sumo’s OutRun 2 was one of the most joyous racing experiences of the last hardware generation. And next week, it arrives on the current generation. Sega have announced that OutRun Online Arcade will be released on Xbox Live Arcade next Wednesday, April 15. In case…
Oh look. Another PC game with a pointlessly restrictive limit on the number of installs. Aren’t these kind of stories just heart-warming? Irate users on the forums of both publisher Atari and developer Starbreeze are complaining that Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena only allows you to install it on three machines. After that, sorry. Atari’s…
Every game has concept art. Most games, though, you probably don’t care if you see it or not. Then again, not every game is as anticipated as Uncharted 2. Developers Naughty Dog have released some of the game’s concept art to IGN, which aside from being quite nice to look at on its own own,…
Big Huge Games used to be THQ’s baby. Now they’re on the chopping block. What got them to that stage? Maybe it was these two games, recently canned, that the company were working on. One was for the Wii, and was called God: The Game. Taking elements of Zelda, The Settlers and…Animal Crossing, it looked…
Earlier in the week, we posted a rather nice-looking racing rig. Thought it was pretty swish. All that did, though, was prompt reader The Dude to email in, saying “You call that a racing rig?!” Well, yes, we did, but his exclamations were for a good reason. See, he pointed us towards I-Way. Which is,…
