I don’t know how they do it but Gameloft have the knack for developing games created by other software developers on the iPhone that look and feel so similar to the originals its not funny. So far they’ve cloned up Modern Warfare and called it Modern Combat. Next Grand Theft Auto took a hit was remade into Gangstar West Coast Hustle, there’s even a Warcraft 3 clone called Lost Empires and most recently even HALO was recreated and called N.O.V.A. It’s so similar that the computer AI even looks like Cortana.
Looks like the next game to get a cloning over is Capcom’s Resident Evil 5. Gameloft have descided to call this title Zombie Infection. Check out the images below :
Now I don’t know about you guys but it looks like this level’s been ripped right out of the early African Level of Resident Evil 5. I’m not sure what to say. Look at the beef handing off the hooks and the Zombie that’s about to do its Resident Evil 4 & 5 trademark sidestep.
From what we’ve heard you even come across a female character that servers as your sidekick in the game by the name of Shawna ?????? Man does it get any closer to Sheva ? Well so far from what others have reported the game actually looks and feels very good and some people have gone out and said that Gameloft have actually done a better job than Capcom have done with Resident Evil 4 and Regeneration on the iPhone.
Now where I come from, those are fighting words !! Looks like Capcom’s going to have to step up and show the world who’s boss of the Survival Horror/Zombie style games and release an Official Resident Evil 5 for the iPhone. After seeing how brilliant the Street Fighter IV convertion was on the iPhone, I don’t think anyone will question Capcom if they descide to bring Chris and Sheva to the portable gaming device. Remebemer this people, no one blows holes through zombies like Chris Redfield does !! 😉

From the Makers of the Best RPG of 2009, Dragon Age: Origins, comes the first official expansion pack.
For centuries, the Grey Wardens-the ancient order of guardians, sworn to unite and defend the lands-have been battling the darkspawn forces. Legend spoke that slaying the Archdemon would have put an end to the darkspawn threat for centuries to come, but somehow they remain.
You are the Grey Warden Commander and have been entrusted with the duty of rebuilding the order of Grey Wardens and uncovering the secrets of the darkspawn and how they managed to remain.
How you choose to rebuild your order, how you resolve the conflict with “The Architect”, and how you determine the fate of the darkspawn will be but some of the many complex choices that await and shape your journey as you venture to the new land of Amaranthine.
the Stimulus Package map pack is coming March 30th to the Xbox 360 first. The price tag set for these 3 new maps and 2 remakes is 1200MSP ($15).
Details on the Maps:
“Bailout,” a multi-level apartment complex
“Storm,” an open industrial park littered with heavy machinery
“Salvage,” a snowy junkyard fortified by stacked debris and crushed cars.
“Crash,” a war-torn urban environment.
“Overgrown,” which features a massive dry creek bed.
“Bailout,” a multi-level apartment complex A confined location, perfect for those annoying people that run around with shotguns and knives. Will most likely be hated by snipers and those who like picking off their enemies from a distance. Hopefully long corridors will lead to some balance.
“Storm,” an open industrial park littered with heavy machinery This level is supposedly going to be stormy, with rain which will reduce visibility.
“Salvage,” a snowy junkyard fortified by stacked debris and crushed cars. This level will lead to some pretty cool tactics, only if the crushed cars are set up properly. Snipers could nest into some strategic locations and snipe between the debris.
“Crash,” a war-torn urban environment. If you have played COD4, you will know this map. Basically it is the original Afghan map.
“Overgrown,” which features a massive dry creek bed. A fan favorite, that is liked by most COD players.
A $15 price tag will make whether to buy this map pack or not a difficult choice for many players, but the extra maps look interesting enough to constitute a purchase. If you are still playing Modern Warfare 2, then you might want to look into this interesting Map Pack.
Bethesda announced today that they will be publishing Inxile’s newest game, Hunted: The Demon’s Forge.
inXile Entertainment was founded in 2002 by industry veteran Brian Fargo. During his distinguished tenure in the video game business, Fargo has been behind some of the greatest fantasy game franchises of all time including The Bard’s Tale®, Baldur’s Gate®, and Fallout®. Hunted’s development is being overseen by Fargo while Michael “Maxx” Kaufman serves as the game’s Director. Previously, Kaufman served as Art Director on such titles as Kingpin™: Life of Crime™, Redneck Rampage™ and the award-winning Return to Castle Wolfenstein® at Gray Matter.
Bethesda Softworks president Vlatko Andonov was quoted saying:
“We are thrilled to be working with Bethesda Softworks on this upcoming release that takes us back to our roots,” said Brian Fargo, Founder of inXile Entertainment. “Bethesda’s track record speaks for itself and the game we are developing for them is no exception.”
“inXile has an extremely talented team and we couldn’t be more pleased to have them working on one of our upcoming titles,” said Vlatko Andonov, President of Bethesda Softworks. “We believe gamers will be really excited about what these guys have in store for them.”
This news comes after the disappointing announcement of Inxile’s other game Heist was canceled by CodeMasters.
Hunted: The Demon’s Forge appears to be a third person fantasy action game where you will take the roll of either E’lara, your standard ranged elf, and Caddoc your typical warrior class. However from all appearances the game looks very dark and the potential co-op abilities will be putting this game on my radar. However there has been no announcement of whether or not you will be able to play co-op online, though this is to be assumed.
An exact release date has not yet been announced, however a bit of the storyline for the game was released as well during this announcement:
The dark ages have become corrupted. Heinous creatures have emerged from underground. Townsfolk across the land are disappearing. Upon the promise of their fortune in gold, mercenaries E’lara and Caddoc take on the daunting task of discovering where the innocent villagers have been taken. Their journey will lead them on a dark and twisted path where they will encounter death, slavery, and sacrifice. Travel deep within the world of Kala Moor…and to the secrets of The Demon’s Forge.
Sounds pretty interesting, and it also appears to be a pure dungeon crawler. It’ll be quite interesting to see how they take the co-op, will it have echos RE5’s co-op abilities? Regardless of that though I am quite interested in seeing where this title will go. Anyone else really interested in this game as well?
Battlefield: Bad Company 2 didn’t have the best start after many server crashes cause people heart ache. No matter what you play the game on, ever version has had some problems while connecting to a multiplayer match. The Xbox 360 was kicking some users all the way out to the Dashboard and PC users were experiencing authentication issues with PunkBuster.
The developers say that all the problems should be fixed now, due to some bug fixes as well as new servers being put in. Xbox 360 users may experience some loss in data but it is nothing major.
Along with this fix there has also been released a Q&A at the battlefield blog. Read the Q&A here.

Thoughts: I personally have all 3 of these games on disc format, but they are all a very good deal at $10 each. Specially Fable and GTA:San Andreas; if you haven’t played either of those games, get them now!
This Week’s Arcade Title:
The Xbox LIVE Block / House Party promotion rolls on with the release Perfect Dark which will be available this Wednesday on Xbox LIVE Arcade for 800 points.
Thoughts: This game is a very good deal at only 800MSP ($10). It also includes 2 gamer pictures, 2 avatar awards (Perfect Dark shirt Male/Female; Alien (elvis) doll prop), and even a theme. If you haven’t picked up any of the block party releases, or even if you have Perfect Dark quite a steal!
Keep your eyes peeled on this site for the review in a day or two.
Not only will you have weapons and special moves at your disposal, but you will also be able to unlock super powers. Check this out in this latest Red Steel 2 featurette video. The Swordman’s fate is now in your hands. Do you have what it takes ? I think I do .. but what about you 😉
Whats everyone think of Red Steel 2 … I personally can’t wait to get my hands on it. With the support for the Wii Motion Plus fighting with the blade is going to be even more realistic. What do you guys think ?
