Grand Theft Auto IV Dated For April

2008-04-02T07:06:00.000-07:00

As has now been proven time and time again, retailers lie, but official press releases from game developers seldom do. It is with these facts firmly established that I give you the official release date for Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto IV - April 29th, 2008 - just in time for a certain Kotaku writer's May 1st birthday. The closeness to said date has Rockstar's Sam Houser extremely excited.

"We are so excited to be releasing Grand Theft Auto IV," said Sam Houser, Founder and Executive Producer of Rockstar Games. "We've pushed ourselves very hard to make something incredible and hope the game sets a new benchmark for interactive entertainment."
Sam does completely forget to mention my birthday in the press release, but we'll just chalk this down as sheer giddiness at the prospect of huge amounts of GTA money coming his way this Spring.

Gran Turismo 5 Prologue: one million preorders in Europe

2008-03-19T18:50:00.000-07:00

There's little debate that the PlayStation 3 had a rough start. Much has changed since then, though, and new numbers indicate that the momentum behind Sony won't be going away soon. Presales data for Gran Turismo 5 Prologue paints a bright picture for the system's exclusive titles; hitting the platinum mark prior to release is a fairly good indicator of a game's popularity, and Gran Turismo 5 Prologue has done just that in Europe. In addition to extremely strong sales of the title in Japan, European preorder sales strictly for the Blu-ray version of title have already toppled the million mark, according to SCEE New Zealand's Marketing Manager Dave Hine.

Combined with the inevitable sales generated by the downloadable version of the game and the recently-announced Euro GT5 PS3 bundle, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue is on track to rock Europe hard when it lands later next month. Fellow download and disc title Warhawk, the leaderboards for which indicate that over 500,000 players have played at least a single ranked game, has set the pace for full retail-equivalent downloadable titles. That's a pace that Polyphony Digital's sim racer will likely be more than able to best.

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2 Multiplayer Hands On

2008-03-14T22:22:00.000-07:00

When we reviewed Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas back in 2006, one of the things that stood out was a rewarding multiplayer experience, something that has been tacked on as an afterthought in some shooters.

Rainbow Six Vegas 2 was under wraps until recently and is now just around the corner. Not long ago we went to Montreal and had a look at the single-player campaign, but we hadn't seen the multiplayer mode until now. We recently caught up with Ubisoft Montreal's game designer Philippe Therien in London, and he took us through some of the new additions to the multiplayer side of the game.

New maps has been included in RSV2 including this frantic one dubbed Villa

Ubisoft has tweaked the cooperative campaign mode and added a series of multiplayer modes with Vegas 2. We played a near-final build on the Xbox 360. The final version will be out in stores on March 14 in Europe and will support up to 16 players, online and offline, on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. Downloadable content was strongly hinted at, but there is no official word as yet.

Because Vegas 2 uses the same Unreal Engine used in the first game, Ubisoft has been able to spend more development time improving the artificial intelligence, graphics, and multiplayer experience. One important aspect for Ubisoft in developing Vegas 2 was to make sure there was no reduction in graphics quality in multiplayer games. Rest assured that the graphics certainly looked promising.

There are 11 new weapons in Vegas 2, and some of the existing weapons have been tweaked--the shotgun reload speed, for example, has been increased from somewhat sluggish to a speedy half-second between shots. The changes in bullet penetration mean that choosing your weapon has taken on a new level of importance. The physics associated with your chosen cover will determine how much damage you'll sustain when hiding behind it--while solid concrete and metal are pretty hard to penetrate, hiding behind a plywood wall is just asking for trouble.
Ubisoft has added a new sprint function to Vegas 2, which is activated by a quick button press. While it can be used only in short bursts, unlike in Gears of War, it's still good for dashing between cover or trying to cross smaller open areas. However, like in Gears of War, you won't be able to shoot while sprinting.

Cooperative play in Vegas has been revamped, and the whole story campaign can now be played from start to finish with seamless switching between one and two players. If you're playing through the campaign, a friend can jump in and play as one of your team--if your friend quits out, the system will resume control of the character.

In addition to a reworked co-op mode, new competitive multiplayer modes should provide some fresh experiences for seasoned Rainbow Six fans. We played them over an Xbox 360 system link with two five-person teams, and what we saw was plenty of fun.

The first new mode, team leader, involves protecting your leader from elimination. To successfully complete the match, you'll need to get your leader to an extraction zone or eliminate the other team. There is a twist, however--both leaders can see where the opposite team leader is on the map, which appears as a star in your heads-up display. As long as a team's leader is alive, the members of that team can respawn back into the action if killed. However, if the team leader kills an opponent, the victim can no longer respawn. If a team leader is killed, the members of his team can no longer respawn. If both team leaders are eliminated, it becomes a survival mode with no more respawning. We played team leader on an indoor/outdoor construction site with plenty of objects to hide behind--think cars, burning oil drums, half-finished brick walls, and those seemingly paper-thin plywood walls. Team leader will be no surprise for those familiar with Counter-Strike's VIP mode, but it has a distinctive Rainbow Six flavour.

Team demolition has also been borrowed from Counter-Strike: One team is required to plant a bomb, and the other must deactivate it within the given time limit. There are two possible bomb planting locations, though, so the defenders must defend both, and then converge upon the bomb if it is planted. They have 60 seconds to defuse the bomb. Unlike in Counter-Strike, both teams will know exactly when and where the bomb has been planted, as it is illustrated by an icon on your HUD.

RSV2 adds new competetive modes including total conquest

We played bomb mode on an indoor map modelled after a gaming tournament, which seemed a cleverly ironic touch. Once the bomb was planted, carnage ensued, with both teams swarming to the bomb site to try to seize control. As with many actions in Vegas 2, you'll be rewarded with experience points when you successfully plant a bomb. After playing a few games, our rank was upgraded to private second class, and we unlocked the ballistic goggles, tactical helmet, and balaclava as a bonus.

Total conquest, the third new multiplayer mode, was particularly memorable and could provide hours of frustration, or glee, depending on your skill and teamwork. The match we tried involved holding three choke points in Villa, which is a small map of a single mansion, a courtyard, and a garage. The goal is to activate three satellite dishes and keep them in your team's control during a 30-second countdown while an uplink is established. This sounds a lot easier than it is. All players know where the dishes are--they're visible as points on the screen--and icons at the bottom right corner of your HUD show which team controls them. If you manage to control all of the dishes, you'll then have to protect them for the duration of the countdown. It can be quite frantic when control of the choke points switches back and forth between the teams, but it's also rewarding when your team manages to win the match.

Once we'd successfully endured several skirmishes, and some slightly out-of-place Enya-esque relaxation music, our rank was increased to specialist. We also unlocked three new camouflage patterns: DPM desert (red), Cadpat (green), and Russian (blue).

Like the single-player campaign in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2, multiplayer looks and sounds quite promising and, while not a huge creative--or geographic--departure from the previous Vegas, should hopefully live up to the standard set by Rainbow Six Vegas. Multiplayer maps will take you to many of the single-player locales not seen in the first game, including the Nevada desert, the Las Vegas monorail, "old Vegas," the industrial refinery, and a strip club.

Far Cry 2 Exclusive Impressions - Dynamic Environments and Savannah Battles

2008-03-14T22:11:00.000-07:00

The original Far Cry was a first-person shooter that started off on a vast tropical island, and it offered a remarkable open-ended experience as you fought squadrons of soldiers in sprawling outdoor environments. Then, you discovered a claustrophobic military complex and spent the rest of the game fighting mutant monsters in tight corridors--though that part of the game isn't remembered as fondly. The sequel will embrace the strengths of the first game by pushing even harder on the open-ended nature of the original game. In fact, the game will be built entirely around the concept of open exploration, offering a world that's about 50 square kilometers in virtual size. We had a chance to take a look at the powerful and impressive tech that will power the sequel, as well as to see several of the gun battles in motion.

Far Cry 2 will combine powerful tech with highly open-ended game play

Far Cry 2 won't take place on a beach with palm trees, but rather, in the heart of a war-torn Africa, meaning you'll fight your way through deserts, savannahs, jungles, and border towns rather than sunning yourself on the beach. In addition, the sequel won't be in as developed a setting as in the original game--your character will carry a paper map and a compass to guide him. And, you'll be using mostly conventional weapons and vehicles (rather than experimental, sci-fi stuff). The level of technology available shouldn't hurt the game experience one bit because the vehicle handling we saw seemed realistic enough while still seeming easy enough to handle, and the guns we saw in action were hefty weapons that discharged with loud, sharp reports. Interestingly, weapons and vehicles will experience progressive damage over time. Damaged guns will actually rattle disturbingly while becoming scratched up, and damaged vehicles will suffer progressive damage to specific areas until they stop running, or until you can repair them.
In fact, the entire world will show off this sort of attention to detail because much of the game's environments can be deformed. Grassy fields can be burnt to the ground with a flamethrower, and trees can be blasted out of the ground with grenades. This damage is all rendered procedurally on the fly and will remain in the world until it actually gradually grows back. The team at Ubisoft hasn't quite determined exactly how quickly in-game time will pass with respect to real time, but the game will have full day-and-night cycles, which will affect the behavior of your enemies (who will have general schedules themselves). You'll even be able to find sleeping areas to sleep for the evening, or until the morning, and toggle the world from day to night. This can come in handy in some cases because darkness provides additional cover, and some areas may be more lightly guarded at night.

After seeing some of the impressive world technology in action, we had a chance to see more of the impressive artificial intelligence we'd covered previously. In addition to fighting your way through various mercenary encampments throughout Africa, along with the occasional help of mercenary companions who will join you, you'll find yourself exploring larger towns where the game's two warring mercenary factions hold sway. In these larger areas, an uneasy peace exists where patrolling mercs openly carry weapons, but prefer not to use them to avoid drawing the ire of enemy factions. You'll actually be able to raise or lower your standing with one or more of the game's mercenary groups, depending on which camps you raid and which missions you choose to take. But unless you've made a very powerful enemy extremely angry, you may be able to walk right into one of these larger towns.

It's a jungle out there,but Far Cry 2 will take place across many diffrent parts of Africa

The town areas we saw were highly detailed and looked a lot like the kind of larger settlements you'd expect to see in a war-torn nation. There was a mix of older masonry and hastily thrown-together shacks, with chain-link fences, as well as barbed wire to keep nosy wanderers out of priority areas. You'll at least be able to walk up to patrolling mercenaries and press a general "use" key to interact with them, though they may react poorly if you're walking around with weapons drawn. You can also make them extremely uneasy if you decide to be a jerk and shove them by repeatedly bumping into them. However, they probably won't open fire on you unless you commit an open act of hostility, such as opening fire or stealing a key object, like the town's only jeep. We watched a demonstration of this very sort of theft, which caused all nearby mercs to immediately open fire while calling for help, though fortunately for us, there were no other vehicles around to give chase. Some of Far Cry 2's characters will use a "leash system" for their artificial intelligence; they'll be assigned to guard certain areas and will give chase for a certain distance. But if they don't have a good chance of catching you (such as if they're on foot and you've got a set of wheels), they'll eventually return to base.

We then watched full-on firefight in a different village build of adobe bricks in which we simply opened fire on the nearby soldiers. They immediately sprung into action, making smart use of cover by ducking behind doorways and continually trying to flank us. You'll often find tougher installations of mercenaries where different enemies will carry different equipment and jockey for the best position. Shock troopers will come at you with combat shotguns and assault rifles, while snipers will hole up in the high ground to take potshots at you. They'll actually shift their positions if you can toss up a few good grenades or wing them with your own rifle.

The battle we watched was fast-paced and brutal, involving a number of severe wounds, which, in the early version of the game we saw, were indicated by a bright red flash on the screen. In the current version of the game, smaller wounds can be recovered from in time, but being severely wounded will require you to get to safety so that you can perform a medical treatment on yourself. Currently, these are random animations that may consist of anything from strapping yourself with a bandage to searing your own thigh with a lit cigar to digging out a bullet with a bayonet blade. The last enemy--the village's sniper--was holed up at the top of the village and was the last enemy to be flushed out. For good measure, we turned around and burnt the rope bridge we'd used to climb to the village's highest point to make sure we weren't pursued. After clearing out the village, we departed it in true Far Cry fashion by commandeering a nearby hang glider and launching ourselves off of the roofs back into the vast African savannah.

Expect vicious firefights and big-time explosions

It's hard to say which aspect of Far Cry 2 is most impressive--the game's powerful tech and excellent audiovisual effects help create a beautiful-looking, constantly changing world full of clever enemies, as well as weapons and vehicles with realistic damage models. However, its fast-paced gameplay looks extremely challenging and should offer plenty of opportunities to use very different strategies in how you want to approach your missions--whether using brute force, sniping enemies from a distance, or even using hit-and-run tactics by keeping a fast vehicle nearby. One thing's for sure: Far Cry 2 is one of the most impressive games we've seen in a long time. The game is scheduled for release later this year on the PC and was recently confirmed for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 as well. We're told that the console versions are being developed with the PC version and will feature all the content of the PC versions. The console versions will ship some time after the PC version hits store shelves.

Part 2 review of Super Mario Bros

2008-03-14T18:42:00.000-07:00

However, that's not to say that all your matches have to be held in your home with your friends at hand. For the first time in the series, Brawl lets you play matches online. If you're interested only in a quick match, you can join a standard or team-based game with anyone and the game will attempt to find you three competitors. Each person will select his or her character and stage of preference, and while you're waiting you'll be tossed into a practice room alone to warm up. Once everyone's settled, one of the requested stages will be chosen at random and the brawl will get underway.

For more control over your matches, you'll have to connect to friends via the dreaded friend codes. Despite their annoyance, friend codes unlock a lot of otherwise unavailable options. Friend matches let you customize an online match the same way you would a local one, and they even open up a couple more game types. As an added bonus, you'll be able to add in extra local players, which isn't the case when playing with strangers. Lag has always been an issue with online games--and especially fighters--but of all the battles we participated in, only one of them suffered from any major lag, and most of them ran so smoothly that we wouldn't be able to tell that it was an online match if we didn't already know.

In the Subspace Emissary, characters like Diddy Kong can show off their moves in glorious cutscenes like this.

Competitive battles and cooperative missions aren't the only things to do with your friends in Brawl. Whenever you finish a multiplayer match that lasted less than three minutes, you can save a full replay of the battle for playback later, and at almost any time in the game or during these replays, you can pause and position your camera to take the perfect screenshot. Then, using the WiiConnect24 service, you can send these replays and screenshots to anyone on your friends list to show off.

Even though Brawl includes a multitude of fun and unique battlefields in which your matches can take place, in the event that you find yourself wanting more, it also offers a custom stage-editor tool so you can make your own from scratch. Using a simple interface, you can specify a size, background picture, and theme song to go along with your masterpiece. Then it's just a matter of selecting which of the premade terrain parts and platforms you want to lay out, and afterward you save the level. This tool works surprisingly well, and though your creations unfortunately can't be used in online matches, you can share them with your friends via WiiConnect24 just as you would a screenshot.

Though Brawl is primarily a multiplayer game, that doesn't mean it isn't without single-player challenges. Classic mode runs your character of choice through a variety of sequential battles as well as two bonus stages before pitting you against the sinister Master Hand, the mysterious disembodied hand that has appeared in every previous game in the series. Each time you play through classic mode, the rounds will change subtly, so you'll never go through the same version twice. Event mode is a series of individual challenges that force you to complete specific objectives to win. Training mode lets you hone your smash skills against opponents whose behaviors you can customize. In stadium mode, you can race against the clock to destroy targets in an obstacle course, try to score a distance record in a home-run contest, or face off against an army of enemies in the multiman brawl.

However, the main attraction in single-player is the adventure mode known as the subspace emissary. This is a retooled version of the adventure mode from Super Smash Bros. Melee that features a single story in which all of the characters in the game join together in an epic battle against a mysterious enemy. Subspace emissary follows the exploits of the various characters as they interact with each other, and is typically divided up into a number of loose story threads that eventually weave together; in one level, you may play as Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong, and in the next you may be Lucas and the Pokémon Trainer. Between each level, you're treated with very high-quality and frequently hilarious cutscenes that further advance the story (and in typical Nintendo style, they are entirely dialogue-free).

The subspace emissary consists almost entirely of side-scrolling platforming levels that are filled with the usual bottomless pits, moving platforms, and enemies, and each one is designed to resemble some of the games that the characters are from. For instance, Donkey Kong's early levels are reminiscent of Donkey Kong Country, launcher barrels and all. These platforming levels are for the most part well designed and fun to play, but there are some--in particular the automatically scrolling ones--that the game could have done without, and there are some characters that just don't seem to handle platforming as well as others. Overall, though, the Subspace Emissary is an entertaining new experience for Smash Bros. and a full game in its own right, given that it will last you between eight and 10 hours. To sweeten the deal even more, Subspace Emissary, and in fact all of the single-player game types with the exception of the training and classic modes, can also be played with a friend cooperatively.

Four-player brawls are as fun and chaotic as ever

Super Smash Bros. Brawl is easily one of the most impressive-looking games on the Nintendo Wii, and even when four players are battling each other onscreen at once in the largest levels, the frame rate never drops once. All of the characters look stunning in their new designs, and their every action, from their taunts to the expressions they make when on the receiving end of a blow, is exceptionally well animated. Equally impressive is the game's soundtrack, which boasts more than 100 songs from all over the Nintendo universe and beyond. Each of these tracks is arranged specifically for Brawl by a star-studded lineup of composers that includes notables Koji Kondo (Super Mario Bros.), Yasunori Mitsuda (Chrono Trigger), Yoko Shimomura (Kingdom Hearts), and more.

Every now and then, a game comes along that is entirely must-have for every owner of the platforms it is released on. Last holiday season, Nintendo struck that kind of chord with Super Mario Galaxy, and now, less than six months later, that feat has been repeated with Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Its simple controls and gameplay make it remarkably accessible to beginners yet still appealing to Smash Bros. veterans. With the inclusion of mostly lag-free online play and the ability to share screenshots, custom levels, and game replays with friends, it offers an unparalleled multiplayer experience previously unseen on the Wii. Mix in all of the unlockable characters and stages, the lengthy single-player adventure, and the exorbitant number of collectible trophies and stickers to find, and you've got yourself the recipe for a game that, if its predecessors are any indication, people will be playing for years to come.

Super Mario Bros

2008-03-14T18:35:00.001-07:00

It's hard to believe, but it's been nine years since the original Super Smash Bros. brought some of the most iconic Nintendo characters together for frantic battles, and roughly seven years since its sequel Super Smash Bros. Melee was released. Perhaps even harder still to believe--and a testament to the series' popularity and longevity--is that these games are still being played religiously to this day. But no matter whether you're a diehard Smash Bros. fanatic or a neophyte brawler, you'll be pleased to know that Super Smash Bros. Brawl includes a plethora of impressive characters, features, and game modes, and is more accessible and fun than ever before.

For the uninitiated, Smash Bros. is a multiplayer-centric series of fast-paced 2D fighting games that features a cast of characters from all over the Nintendo universe. If you've ever found yourself arguing with a friend about whether or not Mario could beat Link in a one-on-one match, Brawl is the game that will let you settle the issue once and for all (the answer of course is that Kirby would eat them both). Characters such as Ike from Fire Emblem, Meta Knight from Kirby, Fox McCloud from Star Fox, Lucas from the unreleased-in-the-US Mother 3 (Earthbound 2), Pikachu from Pokémon, and many more are all on the roster in Brawl, boosting its size up to an impressive 35 total characters--14 of which are hidden and must be unlocked. For the first time, the list of guests includes third-party, non-Nintendo characters such as Solid Snake and Sonic the Hedgehog, and all of them bring their own signature fighting styles and moves to the game.

The roster is bigger then ever before and includes some surprising new additions

Smash Bros. has always been one of the most accessible fighting games on the market because of the simplicity of its controls, and Brawl is no different. There are essentially only two attack buttons (one for normal attacks and one for special moves), and depending on which way you tilt your control stick when you hit them, they can produce a variety of effects that include the titular "smash" attacks. In the interests of user friendliness, Brawl offers four possible control schemes, which ensures that everyone can play whichever way they like; Wii Remote and Nunchuck, Wii Remote alone, Classic Controller, and GameCube Controller are all equally represented. Each of these methods are equally viable, and fans of Brawl's predecessor will be happy to know that the GameCube controls remain unchanged.

Combat includes up to four players brawling on video game-themed stages. The goal is to knock your enemies out of the arena with one of the aforementioned smash attacks. The amount of damage each character has sustained is measured in a percentage, and the higher this percentage is, the farther he or she flies when hit. Battles are fast-paced, frenetic, fun, and often outrageous orgies of chaos, which makes Brawl a perfect party game. But just because the game's mechanics are so simplified compared to traditional fighters doesn't mean that there isn't a lot of depth to be found for those willing to invest the time.

All of the characters have their own strengths and weaknesses, and learning how to protect yourself while taking advantage of your opponents' flaws goes a long way toward securing a victory. There can be a surprising amount of strategy involved, from knowing when and how to attack to ensuring that the terrain of the sometimes over-the-top levels works for you rather than against you. But all that said, Brawl is an incredibly well-balanced game in which even a brand-new player can come away the victor against a hardened veteran.

Throughout combat, various types of items will spawn on the battlefield for use by the first player to reach them. Some, such as the beam sword, are offensive in nature and augment your attack capabilities, whereas others are restorative and will lower your damage meter. Many of these items are from the various games the characters originate from, such as the fire flower and the super mushroom from Super Mario Bros. Although a lot of them have been featured in the previous Smash Bros. games, many new ones appear in Brawl, including the superspicy curry, which makes your character breathe fire for a time. Also worthy of a mention are the various assist trophies, which summon non-playable characters such as Tingle from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker or the 8-bit racers from Excitebike to help or hinder you. Some things--especially the hammer, bob-omb, and warp star--could be considered game-breaking due to their abilities to inflict fatal wounds nearly all of the time, but these items and any others can be toggled off in the options menu before a match begins.

Metal gear?!It can't be!

In fact, customizable is the name of the game, given that a wide variety of parameters can be adjusted when participating in the special brawl mode. Gravity, fighter size, and game speed are just a few of the options, with some of the more outlandish possibilities being whether or not your characters are made of metal (which makes them much heavier and thus harder to KO) or are virtually invisible. Both special brawl matches and regular battles let you customize which items are allowed and how often items will spawn, what kinds of handicaps--if any--are in place, how stages are selected, and more.

Teams can be created if you so desire, and the types of brawls that can be started include timed matches in which the one who scores the most kills and the least deaths wins, stock matches in which the last player standing wins, and coin-collecting matches in which the number of coins everyone has when time is up determines the winner. Tournaments are a snap to set up due to a built-in mode that facilitates up to 32 players on a single Wii, and there's even a rotation mode to help up to 16 players figure out how to take turns. In short, there are literally dozens of ways that you can battle in your living room.

Crytek arming Crysis Warhead?

2008-03-11T20:40:00.000-07:00

What we heard: Crytek has built a reputation within the industry as being technical wunderkinds, wowing audiences first with the verdant, tropical island in Far Cry in 2004, and then delivering an even more impressive frozen paradise with Crysis in 2007. As such, a good deal of attention--and rumormongering--has been given to the Germany-based developer's next project.

The latest gristle for the rumor mill comes from USPTO patent plunderers Trademork. After sleuthing through the USPTO's online database, the patent hunters discovered an application to trademark filing by Crytek GmbH dated March 3, 2008, for Crysis Warhead. The application carries a number of descriptors, including "computer games software and electronic games...for computers, consoles, and individual portable gaming systems; software games downloadable from a local or global computer network; motion picture films, namely, motion picture films featuring comedy, drama, action, adventure and/or animation, for broadcast on television."

So what is Crysis Warhead? To begin with, it could be nothing. As the application was filed by Crytek, and not Crysis publisher Electronic Arts, the German outfit may simply be protecting the name for some future potential use, similar to its trademarking of Crysis Wars and World in Crysis in 2007, as noted by Trademork.

However, according to Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli during the Crysis Post-Mortem at this year's Game Developers Conference, Crysis went through a number of iterations and overhauls, some of which came during the game's final countdown to launch, before reaching its final state.

That being said, the team undoubtedly has a firmer grasp on what, exactly, Crysis is as the developer goes into its next project, so this application could be the first indication of the title for the next installment in the lauded first-person shooter. As noted by Yerli in an interview with fan site inCrysis, the game has been storyboarded as a trilogy, Crysis' overwhelmingly positive critical reception--and decent sales--serve as a good indication that Crytek will proceed with the series.

Crysis Warhead could also be the name of the much-speculated console adaptation of Crytek's shooter. Much of the criticism levied against Crysis was its crippling system requirements, and many have come to believe that the current generation of consoles may not be capable of powering the game. However, at GDC, Crytek showed off to select audiences for the first time an optimized console version of the CryEngine2 running on an Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Crytek also gave audiences a look at a fully tweaked CryEngine2 running smoothly on a budget $600 PC, which lends further credence to the game's potential ability to scale.

One last bit of support for Crysis Warhead being a console port of the PC game is the title's similarity to that of Far Cry Instincts. In 2005, Crytek aided Far Cry publisher Ubisoft with porting the original PC game to Microsoft's Xbox. Since then, Ubisoft has exhibited a proclivity to continue the tradition of tacking on a noun to the end of the various Far Cry ports and pseudosequels, including Far Cry Instincts Evolution for the Xbox, Far Cry Instincts Predator for the Xbox 360, and Far Cry Vengeance for the Wii.

The official story: EA had not responded to requests for comment as of press time.

Bogus or not bogus?: Bogus that Crytek has announced Crysis Warhead as the title of any specific game. However, the soon to be trademarked title would fit for several projects, including a Crysis sequel or a console adaptation of the PC original.

God Of War sees red PSP

2008-03-04T00:39:00.000-08:00

As the blood-splattered Spartan soldier turned God of War, Kratos is prone to seeing red, both figuratively and literally. To promote the upcoming release of God of War: Chains of Olympus on the PlayStation Portable, Sony is giving handheld gamers the chance to see red not just in the game, but all over their systems.

Starting in June, Sony will begin selling a new PlayStation Portable bundle that includes the system in a "deep red" color with an image of Kratos silk-screened on the back, a copy of Chains of Olympus, the raunchy comedy Superbad on UMD, and a voucher to download Syphon Filter: Combat Ops onto a memory stick for the system.

Chains of Olympus is set for a stand-alone release March 4, but gamers with the patience of the gods will need to hold out for the release of the newly colored God of War PSP Entertainment Pack until June. The bundle will retail for $199.99.

God Of War:Chains Of Olympus

2008-03-04T00:25:00.000-08:00

Kratos is back and angrier than ever in this PSP prequel to the popular action adventure series. When the entire world is plunged into eternal darkness and the gods are rendered powerless, Kratos must journey to lands where no mortal has ever walked and face the most feared creatures of Greek mythology to save the ancient world.
Check out the picture..

PSP skype

2008-02-17T06:06:00.002-08:00

Sony PSP Skype Essentials

The Sony PSP, the Swiss Army Knife of mobile entertainment devices, received yet another feature in a recent firmware update with the addition of Skype VoIP support. The Skype software allows the PSP to make calls over the Internet. Skype users can call other PSP or PC Skype users as well as cell phones and regular phone lines. Skype-to-Skype calls are free, but calling out to a real phone will cost real money starting from 2.1 cents a minute depending on location. A Skype-enabled PSP can also accept calls, but you’ll need to deposit money into your Skype account to cover for incoming calls coming from a cell phone or landline.

Sony PSP-2000

The Skype update only works with the Sony PSP-2000 series released in October 2007. According to Sony, the original PSP doesn’t have enough onboard memory to support Skype. Note that the last digit of the PSP model number may differ depending on the geographical region but all 2000 series PSPs should work with Skype.

Memory Stick Duo

You already need the memory stick for game saves, system updates, and multimedia playback. Add Skype to the memory-stick-required list.

Skype-compatible microphone

The system requires the PSP headset and PSP headphone with remote accessory to function with Skype. The actual headphone portion isn’t used--you plug the headset into the remote portion of the headphone kit. We tried using only the headset without the headphone accessory, but people we called told us that the sound was practically inaudible from our side. The tethered remote unit comes bundled with a pair of headphones at the moment, but future retail packs will have them bundled with a headset and microphone.

Wireless Internet access

You’ll need an Internet-enabled Wi-Fi connection to get your PSP online to make those Skype calls.

Finally, the guys behind the outrageously silly Scary Movie franchise have used their own ‘special powers’ to spoof superhero movies. After being bitten by a genetically altered dragonfly, high school loser Rick Riker develops superhuman abilities like incredible strength and armored skin. Rick decides to use his new powers for good and becomes a costumed crime fighter known as “The Dragonfly”. However, standing in the way of his destiny is the villainous Lou Landers. After an experiment gone wrong, Lou develops the power to steal a person’s life force and in a dastardly quest for immortality becomes the super villain, “The Hourglass.” With unimaginable strength, unbelievable speed and deeply uncomfortable tights, will the Dragonfly be able to stop the sands of The Hourglass and save the world? More importantly, will we stop laughing long enough to notice?

Diary Of The Dead

2008-02-14T04:25:00.003-08:00

In his first independently produced zombie film in over two decades, George A. Romero returns to ground zero in the history of the living dead. When a group of film students making a horror movie in the woods discovers that the dead have begun to revive, they turn their cameras on the real-life horrors that suddenly confront them, creating a first person diary of their bloody encounters and the disintegration of everything they hold dear. Told with Romero’s pitch-black humor and an unflinching eye on our post-Katrina world, GEORGE A. ROMERO’S DIARY OF THE DEAD marks the noted filmmaker’s return to his roots.
