Bioshock 2 Debut HD Gameply Video!

Finally the time has come. We can now watch about 3 minutes of gameplay from one my most anticipated games of the year, Bioshock 2: Sea Of Dreams.

Even though its a short video it still looks amazing. First of all it involves your character (the first Big Daddy, or something?) in hot pursuit of the Big Sister. After running down hallways they arrive in a big dark room. Then the flash light turns on. Now with the flashlight I am even more exited. Because only recently I have gone crazy for survival horror games and horror films and even though the first game is classed as a horror maybe this time they can crank it up to max frights.

Anyways after entering the massive dinner hall you hear the scream of a man. Oh and Tennunbum is still alive ten years after Jack (Bioshock) left. Anyways you continue to pursue the Big Sister as she kills a helpless Splicer for nothing more then dramatic emphasis. Anyways after she runs to the back of the hall she glides over the massive window cracking it and flooding your character. When I first saw this I was like "oh snap" but then realised you a Big Daddy so it doesn't matter. But it was still bloody cool.

Then it cuts to some fight scenes as you protect a little sister. This is mainly what I wanted to see. And it didn't disappoint. The engine has stayed the same so its only some gameplay mechanics and character models that have changed. Anyways I hope in the near future they show more videos.
And don't forget the last menacing words from the little(ish) sister- "I don't think the big sister want you playing with me?"

Assassins Creed 2 has some secrets!

Assassins Creed (to me) was one of the best games back in 07. With some fantastic game mechanics and a great story, it set it’s self apart from other games. Even though the end left it’s self to the imagination to piece together it was brilliant. Now the second has had a teaser released to get people exited. And for some reason the Ubisoft have taken the Infinity Ward approach to teaser creating. In that they show a bunch of random clips they and the fanboys go crazy.

I find it fascinating and frustrating at these teasers because on one hand I like how people decrypt it however it is frustrating because I just want to see some gameplay clips, just like Lost Planet 2 did with its first trailer.

Anyways the teaser is a cool one. And From the trailer below it shows some interesting things, like how it would be set in Venice? Or that the assassin can swim and glide through the air. Check out the video at the bottom to see the interesting secrets people have found in the teaser.

M.A.G Leaked Photos Look...

Massive Action Game is a Playstation 3 exclusive that supports up to... and this is true, 256 players online. Well I have found the first leaked images and I had to well show you guys. M.A.G (as us cool cats call it) is an MMO/FPS where the fights take place on a massive battle ground (well it doesn't contradict the title).

From the picture that I have seen I am really amazed. This could be a killing blow to Miscrosoft's Xbox 360. I mean come one 256 players online at once. That is crazy beyond belief. Apart from that this is what I have found on the game.

A PS3 exclusive, the game will utilize a new server architecture to support online battles with up to 256 players, with users divided into 8-player squads. Each squad will be led by a player who has advanced through the game's ranking system. Character statistics and development will also increase with frequent gameplay. The players most advanced in rank will be able to either direct the battle or participate directly in combat.Basic battles will take place within ongoing, faction-based campaigns to encourage the player to actively play, with at least three factions being considered for inclusion; including American, European and Middle Eastern factions.The game's E3 unveiling trailer featured large landscapes, tactics such as air strikes and parachuting, and a variety of vehicles, from tanks and APCs to airplanes. The game will boast numerous classes for players to specialize in; including medics, commandos and field demolition specialists. The game will be a first-person shooter.

'Saw' Game To be Made By Konami!

Yes its true! The people who brought you the Silent Hill series and more important the Metal Gear Solid series, have just grabbed the rights to make a Saw game. Obviously based on the film franchise, and will be released in June along side the new 'Saw VI', but with not be based on the film, it will just tie into the story. The game will released on the PS3, 360 and PC. So we will have to wait till then to see if its any good.

If it's anything like the Silent Hill then I’m going to go crazy for it. The blend of horror and puzzles will make this game fantastic. According to PS3Fanyboy-

"Tasking you with navigating an asylum and defusing Jigsaw's trademark deathtraps, the Saw game promises to adopt an overt style of horror and make you "turn away from the screen for just a moment because of the visual intensity."

Konami will seize 'Saw' licence

This really exits me. Then reading the article which they got this from, from the Variety site, I had to put it on my possible GOTY (Game of The Year) list along with Batman: Arkham Asylam, Bioshock 2: Sea Of Dreams (if they keep the second half of the title) and Modern Warfare 2. Quite a list I know. Back on subject, Its is apparent that instead of a psychological horror like Silent Hill they are aiming for intense horror. They even want the players to turn way. The story involves a guy locked in Jigsaw's asylum and you have to save his victims, some being characters from the franchise. If this is going to be anything like a Silent Hill game the people you save with have an impact on the ending. So I’m hoping for multiple endings.

Anyways for the full article the link is below.
