Resident Evil: Revelations has a new trailer, zombie wolves and will be available early next year

So far, we’ve only seen that Resident Evil: Revelations will take place on an abandoned cruise ship and players will be taking control of Jill Valentine and Parker Luciani. The plot will take place somewhere between Resident Evil 4 and 5 and they are on the boat searching for Chris.

But it seems that Chris won’t be there, because today Capcom released a whole slew of new information and media for the title, all of it focusing on Chris Redfield and where him, and his new BSAA partner Jessica Sherawat are at. The two of them are in the mountains looking for a plane crash, and apparently they will be attacked by infected zombie wolves as you can see in the screenshots and trailer below. Now when can we expect to see this title on the 3DS? Sometime early in 2012 it seems.

Kinect: Disneyland Adventures begins its journey on November 15th

Not everyone lives close to a Disneyland park and therefore can’t enjoy the supposedly most wonderful place on Earth. But it seems that this holiday season you and your children can enjoy the wonders of Disneyland without having to leave the comfort of your living room. Though previously announced at E3, Kinect: Disneyland Adventures never was given a release date, until now.

Kinect: Disneyland Adventures will be available on November 15th and is being developed by Frontier Developments to be the prettiest looking recreation of the park ever. You can venture around the park with your children or play several minigames that mimic Disney attractions so you can still somewhat experience the rides there in the form of re-imagined minigames. I wonder if there will be virtual line standing as well…

Asura’s Wrath Gamescom trailer is as over the top as it gets

After watching this trailer, the word over the top and Asura’s Wrath may as well become synonymous with one another because not only does this trailer show just how silly the title is, but how awesome it is as well. The trailer was released by Capcom at Gamescom earlier today and although it may start simple and relaxing, it quickly becomes anything but.

We go from Asura relaxing in the bath with an old friend of some sort to the two of them locked in intense combat on the surface of the moon. That is of course until Asura is stabbed and slammed to Earth by the biggest sword ever in a video game. Though we won’t be seeing our six armed berserker until sometime early in 2012, as long as they keep releasing trailers like this, fans will be satisfied.

Ubisoft reveals six PlayStation Vita games in development

Ubisoft knows that the launch of a new platform means a lot of consumers eager to purchase new content for their shiny handheld gaming device and they are certainly not going to be left out of that potential money maker. Today Ubisoft announced a slew of new games that the company is currently developing for the PlayStation Vita, including Asphalt racing game, Assassin’s Creed, Dungeon Hunter Alliance, Rayman Origins, Michael Jackson: The Experience and Lumines.

Ubisoft released a screenshot for the Asphalt racing title which can be seen above, but unfortunately did not reveal any release window for any of these titles, though we can guess that a large number, if not all will be available by the time that the PlayStation Vita launches next year.

Move Fitness announced for next year with teaser trailer

With the creation of the Wii came the Wii Fit and enough exercise games on all three systems across each motion control scheme that you could bench press with all of them and get a decent exercise. But rather than creating dumbbells with all those exercise games you own, Sony has announced that they are going to make a Move fitness game imaginatively titled Move Fitness.

This news comes from Sony’s Gamescom keynote and they provided a small teaser, which you can see below, for the game which showed a number of features which may set it apart from other titles, such as mini-games and exercise which may help you build up a little sweat. They did not announce an exact release date at this time other than some time next year.

Resistance: Burning Skies announced for PS Vita

The expanding of the PlayStation Vita’s game library continues to grow it seems. Sony announced at Gamescom 2011 during their keynote a few new details Nihilistic’s Resistance entry onto the PlayStation Vita. Back when the Vita was announced, teaser footage of a resistance game was shown, but never announced until now.

The game will be titled Resistance: Burning Skies and will be a prequel to Resistance 2. Players will take the role of Tom Riley a man who used to be a fireman before the destruction of his entire country. Thanks to his history as a fireman, Riley apparently carries a fire axe around at all times and can use it as a weapon. There was a brief demo shown during the conference which showed that players could use the touch screen to activate a weapons alternate fire mode. Sounds quite awesome no?

Escape Plan announced for PS Vita

If you were concerned about what games to expect on the PlayStation Vita then you should be happy to hear that at Gamescom 2011, during Sony’s keynote speech they revealed a new and interesting looking title called Escape Plan. From what was shown during the presentation, the title will be a side scrolling game where players must control two characters named Lil and Laarg through traps.

You can see the above image of the two characters, but unfortunately not much information for the title was given at the time of announcement. There is currently no launch date nor was there a developer announced at the time. Still the more Vita games the better in my opinion, especially non-remakes of old titles.

PlayStation 3 receives immediate price drop to $250, $300 for 320 GB models

To close out their Gamescom 2011 keynote speech this year, Sony brought out a bit of surprising news. That the PlayStation 3 would be getting a price drop down to $250 for the 160GB model immediatly after the announcement was made. This means that right now you can go to nearly any store at this moment and pick up 160GB model of the PlayStation 3 for $249.99 in the U.S., €249.99 in Europe, ¥24,980 in Japan and $349.95 in Australia.

The 320GB model will cost $300 in the US and $449.95 in Australia and this announcement is pretty interesting considering it comes nearly to the date with the previous price drop to $299.99 which occurred two years ago. If for whatever reason you haven’t picked up a PlayStation 3 yet, it is now cheaper than ever before to do so.

It arrives on PS3 (supporting PS Move) and Nintendo Wii on November 4th, 2011.

inFamous 2: Festival of Blood announced for October as standalone release

Feel like inFamous 2 needed a little bit of a vampire influence? So does Sucker Punch because they have just announced that there will be a new game released on the PlayStation Network in October. Well, it isn’t a new game per-say but it is going to take a whole new twist on the inFamous 2 storyline.

New Marais has been infested with vampires and Cole has been bitten by one of them. He must then find the head vampire before the end of the night or else he will be a vampire forever. Of course there hasn’t been any footage of the game released yet so we have no footage of vampires being electrocuted to death. Then again, can vampires even be killed with electricity? During the announcement the game was billed as a brand new downloadable game, so it will likely be a standalone PSN title.
