Learn ‘How To Kill A Witch’ With Hansel & Gretel

-

January 23, 2013

We’ve got two new clips for the upcoming fairy-tale bloodbath that is Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters (3D).

The first is titled “Meet Hansel & Gretel”, and is a cool and effective scene that introduces the characters to a town – and maybe to you – for the first time. They get a bit of a frosty reception from the seeming town Mayor. WARNING: There is some swearing in the video (Hansel and Gretel really are all grown up!)

The second clip is called “How To Kill A Witch”. Pretty simple really, with 3 Steps: Use your head. Bring the heat. Make some noise! Brimming with bad-ass-ness! (that doesn’t read well…) You can view both clips below.

Before doing so, let me remind you to visit and ‘like’ the official AU Hansel & Gretel Facebook page if you’re a fan, and that the “Wave of Witches” Facebook flash game is also up right now. Now, go on and view the candy coated carnage!

Today is a big day for CCP Games, as today – the free to download and play DUST 514 has entered Open Beta for the Playstation 3. For those unfamiliar, DUST 514 was recently connected with EVE online, allowing PC players and console owners to come together in the massive universe that is New Eden. Yes, this means that a space combat simulator and a first person shooter have become one, and things look to be just heating up for the new IP.

Now that DUST 514 has entered open beta, mercenaries will begin to shape their careers in earnest as there are no further character resets planned and every shot, every battle and every contract counts. Going forward, all skill upgrades, weapon choices, dropsuit selections and vehicle fittings will shape the fighting strategies and the battles of all mercenaries in DUST 514.
The DUST 514 Open Beta is the next step towards CCP’s long-term vision for the EVE Universe. In the upcoming weeks, and for years to come, CCP will continually improve upon the overall DUST 514 experience, adding features, content, as well as deeper integration between the two games.

If you haven’t already, go out and download DUST 514 on the Playstation 3 and get into the action, as this will be one massive experience that is sure to only grow over time.

Big news for point and click-adventurers and Walking Dead fanatics alike with the news coming in that Telltale Games award-winning The Walking Dead has finally received classification in Australia.

This of course means the game will finally see the light of day on consoles in Australia. Telltale Games themselves did not submit the game for classification last year upon the games release but has now done so following the implementation of an R18+ rating down under. Funnily enough the game recieved an MA15+ rating which means it could have been released prior to the implementation of the R18+ rating. But as they say it’s better late than never.

It is unknown as to when the game will hit the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 within Australia at this point in time. The Walking Dead won our Game of the Year award for 2012 which you can see here.

What do you think of The Walking Dead being rated in Australia? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.

We know Call of Duty officially hit mainstream culture when stars like Sam Worthington, Robert Downey Jr, and Jonah Hill shared commercial credits with the likes of FPSRussia. Peter Stormare of Fargo and The Big Lebowski is the latest actor to add Call of Duty commercial to his acting resume in the new trailer entitled The Replacer. The video was filmed to advertise the new DLC pack Revolution.

Revolution is the first of of many DLC packs for Call of Duty Black Ops II. Players can opt to purchase the DLC packs ala carte or buy a season pass at a small discount over buying each pack seperately. The Revolution DLC contains a Zombies Co-Op map allowing players to control the zombies, a new zombies map, four new multiplayer maps, and a new multiplayer weapon called the Peacekeeper SMG. Check out the official site here.
