Shogun 2: Total War Gameplay Cinematic
I don't really know what a gameplay cinematic is. I'm assuming, based on the information provided, that it's a trailer that uses the actual in-game graphics engine instead of prerendered footage. I'm sure I've seen them in action before, and have just never known the name for them. Anyway, if that's the case, then Shogun 2: Total War has a mindblowingly awesome in-game engine, judging by this trailer.
Ghost Recon: Future Soldier Short Film Teaser
A teaser for Ubisoft's live action short film based on the upcoming game, Ghost Recon: Future Soldier, has debuted online with the title Ghost Recon: Alpha. The short film, which is being directed by Francois Alaux and Herve De Cercy, will be released at the same time as the game. Ubisoft recently announced that the game is being pushed back to the first quarter of 2011, and the trailer shows that the short has followed suit.
Comic-Con: Dead Space 2 Preview
On the final day of Comic-Con, while wandering around the streets of San Diego, I spotted an EA sign pointing towards a random building. As I got closer, I saw Dead Space 2 and Dragon Age 2 signs posted and said, "What the hell?" and walked over to said random building. Where Necromorphs proceeded to stab me in the face.
Street Fighter X Tekken and Tekken X Street Fighter - More Details
The Capcom panel at Comic-Con is slowly making me more and more bitter that I missed it. In the previous post, I wanted to know how exactly a Street Fighter vs Tekken game would work, simply because of the 2D vs 3D aspect. How about making two games?
JoeJr Goes to AVCON 2010
While the majority of the 8th-Circuit crew was attending geek nirvana (aka San Diego Comic Con), some of us haven’t been so lucky. Instead of sitting on my ass sulking about missing out on yet another cool event, I decided I’d take the opportunity to discover what my hometown of Adelaide, South Australia has to offer in terms of its own version of geek centres, enter AVCON.
Warhammer 40k: Space Marine Coming to PC
I've been looking for a reason to write something about this game for a while now, and I've finally got one. In a press release issued today, THQ and Relic have revealed that their upcoming third person shooter based in the Warhammer 40k universe will not only be shipping for the 360 and PS3, but it will also be coming to the PC.
Comic-Con: Dead Rising 2 Panel
Over Comic-Con, I was able to get into a panel for Capcom's upcoming Dead Rising 2. Among the things they showed was a brief new trailer for the game that was made in the vein of a tourism advertisement for the city locale in question, Fortune City. For those of you who don’t know, the story of Dead Rising 2 happens five years after the events of the original game. You play as Chuck Greene (the motorcycle jacket wearing badass who sort of looks like Travis Pastrana) on a quest for Zombrex, a drug that keeps the effects of zombism (and Restless Leg Syndrome) at bay, for his bitten daughter.
Comic-Con: Master Chief Returning in Bungie-less Halo 4?
343 Industries head Frank O'Connor reassured the crowd of Halo fans at Comic Con (via IGN), and around the world, that even though Bungie won't be at the helm of future Halo games that doesn't mean that the series most iconic character will be heading into the wilderness. O'Connor told fans at the convention that "We'd have to be the world's biggest a**holes not to follow through," O'Connor said. "We certainly haven't seen the last of Master Chief."
Street Fighter vs Tekken Announced
So that's totally awesome and crazy. But after we heard this, me and some of the editors sat there and wondered, "How the hell is that gonna work?"
Matt's Rantbox: Comic-Con 2010 Day 1
Or: A Day of Bitter Disappointment
So let me just say that, due to some technical difficulties, I came pretty close to not actually making it to Comic-Con this year. And by “technical difficulties,” I of course mean that I gave Comic-Con registration the wrong e-mail address. HAHA WHOOPS. So, figuring that I was probably not going to be attending this year’s convention, I did not have a good grasp of what panels, events, etc. were going on. When I did finally find out I was going, I only managed to glimpse through a schedule of events, and the one thing that I really wanted to see from this quick glimpse was the Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World panel.
