New Marvel XP Trailer Teased

In this latest trailer appearing on the Marvel XP Facebook page, we are shown an agent briefing video featuring none other than Nick Fury himself. What many Marvel fans will find irritating is that Nick Fury is not representative of his comic book image, but is actually much closer to Samuel L. Jacksons take within the The Avengers movie.

To quote the video –

***FURY-WORLD SECURITY COUNCIL BRIEFING Pulse+ 317:05*** Continuation of the briefing between Director Nick Fury and World Security Council. This is concerning the Director’s recommendation of the Hulk for the S.H.I.E.L.D. task force to contain the Vault prison break.

Carrier Command: Gaea Mission X360 Trailer

Bohemia Interactive have recently put up a trailer showcasing footage from their upcoming game Carrier Command: Gaea Mission. In this trailer, titled Xbox 360 Assault Trailer, we can see how impressive this title will appear on the Microsoft console when it is released.

The Xbox 360 centered trailer shows off not only the visuals of the game on the console version, but it also includes a little bit of the games storyline that is featured within the main campaign. From the looks of things, this will be quite an interesting game.

What’s also of note is that the title will be shipping, not only with an FPS main mode of gameplay, but also with a mode reminiscent of the original game called Strategy Game. This is shaping up to be an excellent package, considering that most games will usually just come with a single player story and paid DLC content.

More Silent Hill: Book of Memories screens spotted in the wild

With the October release of Silent Hill: Book of Memories growing closer, Konami has decided that they would upload a few new screenshots of the game to their Facebook page. These screenshots can be seen below and fans of the franchise should probably take a chill pill at this point in time, because these screenshots actually look pretty decent.

Sure the title may not play like any other Silent Hill game, what with it being designed like a dungeon crawling game that can allow for co-op play via multiplayer, but it is an interesting direction to take and one that looks like it will work well with what the Vita is capable of.

Dead Island Riptide arrives in 2013 with character importation

Deep Silver had a few things to reveal about Dead Island Riptide today and one of them is the fact that the game isn’t really a sequel but more of a spin-off. The title will focus more on close combat than the latter half of Dead Island which began to focus on gunplay instead.

The company has also added in a new weather system as well as upgrades to the gameplay engine from the first game. The weather system will allow players to float down rivers on boats, though you’ll have to deal with the zombies that are also in those rivers. The game will take place on an entirely new island near the previous island and gamers can import their character stats from the original Dead Island. As for when gamers can expect the title, Deep Silver has currently listed a release window of sometime in 2013.
