Easter Eggs and Zombies, Resident Evil: Afterlife trailer revealed

Finally the trailer for the fourth Resident Evil movie, Resident Evil: Afterlife has been released, you can see the trailer below.

From what they are saying, it was filmed using the same type of 3D cameras that James Cameron used to make Avatar in 3D. Not only that but the movie will also include Mila Jovovich as Alice, which was tentative before due to contract issues. There is also news that video game characters yet unseen may make an appearance in this film as head characters, such as Chris Redfield.

Resident Evil: Afterlife was written by, produced, and directed by Paul W. S. Anderson and is being distributed by Screen Gems. The movie is slated to be released September 10, 2010.

This trailer actually looks quite good, and from the looks of a few of the zombies there, it will also be introducing the Las Plagas virus from Resident Evil 4 and the Executioner from Resident Evil 5. Although some of the action itself seems to be extremely far beyond reality, but then again that is always entertaining. I enjoyed the first two movies, but the third one, Resident Evil: Extinction wasn’t the greatest for me. So I’m excited about seeing how this one will turn out, anyone else?

Geometry Wars out for the iPad

4

Looks like Activision has released Geometry Wars: Touch (click to download) now for the just released iPad at the cost of $9.99.

You may have heard of a game called Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 1 & 2 for the XBLA, and may have also played these games. If you have played either one then you will know quite well exactly how fun Geometry Wars itself is, and what it has to offer. Geometry Wars: Touch offers the exact same features and modes as Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2, including a brand new mode called “Titans”

List of modes included in iPad:

* Deadline: This mode will set you against endless amounts of enemies with as many lives as you may need, providing three minutes to reach your highest possible score
* King: King of the hill style gameplay, where you will recieve only one life, and must travel between safe zones and destroy the enemies between them
* Evolved: Possibly a re-worked version of the original Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved
* Pacifism: One life to live and no weaponry to speak of, your only hope is to fly through explosive gates to destroy your foes
* Waves: You must survive as many waves as possible of enemies, with only one life. Did we forget to mention that the enemies com from all directions and in literal walls
* Sequence: Kill every enemy as the levels progress
* Titans: Asteroids style gameplay, involving whittling down enemies until they are no more

Unfortunately though, there is no word yet if this game will see the light of day on the iPhone/iPod Touch. Has my previous fear come to pass? Will applications and games for Apple products be directed directly at iPads now and leaving the iPhone/iPod Touch as outdated material? I certainly hope not. Only time will tell if there will be a version released for the iPhone/iPod.

Who here has played Geometry Wars for the XBLA? Do you think that this will be a good transition for the game?

Prince of Persia : The Forgotten Sands – Gameplay Trailer

As seen on http://www.princeofpersia.com, this brand new Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands trailer will take you to a journey into Maliks kingdom, where he has unleashed the Sand Army.
Like the Prince, you have been granted new powers, it is now your decision to use them well. Prince of Persia : The Forgotten Sands will be available May 2010.

Believe it or Not: MasterAbbott is cute?

According to Trixie360’s latest blog entry MasterAbbott is officially 6th in the top 10 cutest boys in video games.

MasterAbbott is always saying he is cute. Him and Duraroc are always gunning for who is the cutest in the capsule computers crew, while I humbly sit in the background because I know if I joined in there would be no point in arguing. Now it seems there is a WINNER.

Now nothing can stop MasterAbbott, all he does all day is walk around the office with his lancer in his hand making revving noises and screaming out “IM CUTE im the CUTEST, in your faces!”

Next he’ll be putting his picture all over the place. But i have plans for those pictures. MUHAHAHAHA! Sharpy in hand, bring it on MasterAbbott!

I think this is a perfect idea.  I’ll be placing links to both on the side bar under links.  Make sure u book mark these two sites as it’s always good to get free stuff every day.  Other corporations should be doing this too FREE XBLA Game a Week or PSN Games and WiiWare games a week would be BRILLIANT .. and it would generate more action and interest by gamers.

What do you guys think ?  Well for now check out the details below. Make sure you check out both sites for your iPhone and your new sexay IPAD !!

Team Fortress 2 – Law Abiding Engineer

So this video has been floating around the internet, and if you haven’t seen it yet then now is a good time to watch it.

Bungie releases Halo: Reach multi-player details, jet packs included

Bungie has released a major update today about Halo: Reach and all of the new features included in the multiplayer mode. There is so much to explain that it is nearly impossible to talk about it all, so I will highlight a few things I can’t wait to try out.

They’ve finally added differences to the two class types. Before Elites and Spartans were the exact same. Same size, same speed, same everything. Now they will finally have differences incorporated into them, they will be stronger, faster, have more health and more shields. The only negative about this is the question if elites will be playable by any selection, or if there will only be certain modes in which you can choose to play as an Elite.

There also is now the inclusion of loud outs allowing you to choose between pre-determined sets of equipment and armor abilities. The only negative factor of this is, that you can only choose between the ones set by Bungie, and there is no choice to customize these load outs yourself. Plus certain loud outs will not be available for all game types according to their press release.

These armor abilities are quite interesting too. These are not only including a jetpack for extreme aerial boost fights. There is also the inclusion of an “armor lock” system which makes you invincible from all attacks, however it locks your armor making you unable to move. Basically turning you into a stationary turret. Add this with the sprinting ability and the active camouflage that we are all used to, it will turn into some very interesting fights.

Add in a multitude of new weapons, a new health and shield system, and Halo multi-player will never be the same.

This is just a small sample of what was announced in the press release, to view more watch the trailer below for the multiplayer, as well as clicking the link above or here to read Bungie‘s press release.
