Four new L.A. Noire screenshots submitted for evidence

It’s been quite a long time coming but L.A. Noire is coming out next spring for the PS3 and the Xbox 360. Now Rockstar Games and Team Bondi have decided to up the anti even more by releasing a few screenshots to help keep us satisfied just a little longer by teasing us. Four screenshots were released that show off different parts of the game, such as how a detective from 1947 had to perform his job.

Playing as Phelps you will have to solve different cases that range from robberies, murders, and what looks like arson even. Rather than jumping in guns blazing it seems that a sharp tongue is the best way to survive the world that L.A. Noire takes place in. Then again dead bodies don’t answer questions so make sure that your guns are your last resort. Catch the screenshots above and below.


Kung-Fu LIVE now available!

Kung-Fu LIVE has just launched on PSN in North America and Europe!

Using the FreeMotion technology (along with the PS Eye) for some real life moves,  Kung-Fu LIVE fuses players into a world of pulp action-comics with accurate real-time motion and image scanning, letting fans literally step inside the fight like never before. You can expect a roster of impossible-made-possible power moves and unique multiplayer components.

“From the very beginning, we’ve set out to deliver some serious fun for people who don’t take themselves too seriously. Today is the day that we can finally share our vision with gamers across the world. It’s a vision that literally puts players inside of the epic action of the video game world with no controllers and no disconnect between their real life selves and an avatar on-screen. They are truly inside of the game. Every kick, punch, cartwheel, and power jump they can perform in front of their televisions is now an integral part of the game play experience, and the result is exactly the kind of ridiculous and physically challenging fun we’ve strived to create.” – Teemu Maki-Patola, CEO of Virtual Air Guitar Company

Kung-Fu LIVE was developed by Virtual Air Guitar Company and is available for $14.99 USD in North America and  €13.99 EUR / £10.99 GBP in Europe.

Dead Space 2 trailer displays the fall of the Sprawl

It’s never a good thing when a space station comes under attack. It definitely isn’t good news especially when they are under attack by Necromorphs. What we see in the trailer below for Dead Space 2 is the fall of the Sprawl. We see many people being killed in different ways by the Necromorph infestation and the fact that only Isaac Clarke knows what to do.

What is new however are the various battle scenes that we witness. The boot jets are also used in the trailer to chase what looks like a runaway train. Then again on that same train it appears that Isaac starts to suffer a breakdown and strange symbols appear around him, could his mind still be altered from the Marker?

The 3rd Birthday storyline detailed in a trailer

We’ve seen bits and pieces about the gameplay elements that will be featured in Square Enix’s The 3rd Birthday, but what about the story? There hasn’t been much information about the story released other than it will contain Aya and continue the Parasite Eve story. That is until today when a new trailer was released that details the basis of the storyline.

Now it is five minutes long and in Japanese, but subtitles help clear up any confusion that we may have about what is going on. The trailer itself talks a bit about the story and then delves into gameplay and cut scenes. All of this is great to know considering The 3rd Birthday will be out in Japan in a couple of weeks and then in America sometime in early 2011 for the PSP.

Crimson Viper & Storm join the cast of Marvel vs Capcom 3

Capcom keeps buffing up the roster of fighters that will be available in Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds and they have added in another two fighters, one from each world.  From the Marvel side of things we are seeing yet another X-Men joining with classic team member Storm. But that isn’t all, Capcom is bringing in a Street Fighter to counter the forces of nature in the form of Crimson Viper.

That brings the current number of selectable fighters to 32. It will be interesting to see who else will be revealed as the game grows closer to it’s release date of February 15th of next year. As per standard they have also released videos which feature both Storm and Crimson Viper performing various attacks and special moves to get us even more excited about a game we have been ecstatic about for months.

Now that the cat is out of the bag regarding Uncharted 3, Naughty Dog isn’t pulling any punches with the information they are letting out about the game. They have announced that Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception will be able to be played in stereoscopic 3D. Great news if you have one of those expensive 3D televisions already. But that isn’t all.

In the spirit of giving to the fans, Jimmy Fallon who is host of the show Late Night has released information on his Twitter page that on Monday December 13th he will be having the game’s developer on his show. While the developer is on the show he will also show off the first live gameplay demo, but that will be in 2D only of course.

However if you happen to care more about the actual details about the game and what will set this one apart from the previous two Uncharted games. Catch what has been detailed so far by Naughty Dog below:

  • Bigger set pieces and more explosive adventure, driven by Naughty Dog’s signature storytelling and cinematic presentation.
  • Competitive and co-op multiplayer return with brand new experiences and massively expanded feature sets. The UNCHARTED universe provides online players with a unique Action Adventure multiplayer experience, bringing the cinematic elements of the single-player campaign into multiplayer.
  • Nathan Drake can now take on opponents in more ways than before: hand-to-hand combat with multiple opponents, contextual melee attacks, and new stealth options. UNCHARTED 3: Drake’s Deception also features expanded and diverse traversal moves with deep gunplay.
  • Naughty Dog introduces new physics, visuals, and environmental effects. UNCHARTED 3: Drake’s Deception features new innovations in sand, fire, smoke, and water dynamics and effects. UNCHARTED 3: Drake’s Deception will be playable in Stereoscopic 3D.

Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception announced for 2011

We’ve heard before that a number of game announcements will be made at the VGA this weekend, but that doesn’t mean companies can’t spill the beans before hand. Entertainment Weekly, which one wouldn’t expect to find such a large game reveal, has released information regarding Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception. The third iteration of the series will be released at some point in 2011 though that is as vague as you can get.

Drake’s Deception will place Drake and his partner Sully on the Arabian Peninsula and the Rub’ al Khali Desert. Drake appears to be searching for a lost city and also will find out mysteries about his past and his father Francis Drake. There has been a teaser released for the game at the same time, but then again it only teases the fact that we will see more about the game Saturday at the Video Game Awards on Spike. Talk about a vague way to release information on such a large game.

ROPES – Who Said :

My first choice would be ILLUSIA because I love simple 2D rpgs. Also because it looks fairly easy to play and wouldn’t take too much of my precious drive space.

For 3D game choice it would have to be Eternal Legacy because it seems to be considered the best overall 3D game in the iPhone market.

Resident Evil: Revelations Also Receives New Imagery…

Capcom has been very busy getting out new images for upcoming titles today, and with that comes new screenshots for Resident Evil: Revelations. These screens show off the brand new entry in the series and they look just as the other Resident Evil title hitting the 3DS, Resident Evil: The Mercenaries. Of course what is different about Revelations is that is a fully storied game that is looking to answer many questions about what went on in-between RE4 & 5.

Along with the standard screenshots is also some new character models for Jill and Chris and some awesome concept art showing off the eerie setting for the game. I loved Resident Evil 5, but one thing many felt the game was lacking was the horror element from the classic titles and judging by these shots, it looks like that element is going to be fully alive in this portable entry. Check out the images below and let us know how you feel about Revelations and the series in general in the comments section.
