Take-Two Interactive is teaming up with Digital Extremes to bring multiplayer to BioShock 2. “The fans asked for a multiplayer experience and we answered,” said Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K. “With Digital Extremes delivering a multiplayer experience for BioShock 2 that features all of the things that make BioShock unique, we’re holding ourselves to a high standard so that we can deliver the depth and variety that fans of the BioShock universe demand.”
Fallout New Vegas was announced today during a Bethesda press conference in London. Pete Hines, a member of Bethesda, released the information, saying the game is expected sometime next year for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.
Hines said the game will not be a sequel of Fallout 3, it will simply be set in another part of the Fallout universe, mos likely Vegas by the name of it.
The original BioShock won game of the year, and became a big hit despite its SecuROM usage. Its ratings from the beginning were sky high by all the major gaming reviewers. BioShock 2 will take place 10 years after the original, and you will play as the first Big Daddy in Rapture.
Let’s hope the game doesn’t come bundled with intrusive DRM like the last time. I never bought the original because of SecuROM, and might consider buying the second if it doesn’t have the DRM.
A fan of Contra NES put together a LittleBigPlanet world together, replicating the Contra levels and put the video together above. Brings back some great Contra memories.
Well, there is a reason Grand Theft Auto IV is rated M for mature. The latest installment of GTAIV is The Lost and Damned, an exclusive add-on for the Xbox 360 version. Those that have a chance to play the game have discovered quite a surprise in one of the video sequences. One of the characters is shown strutting around fully naked. You may think they aren’t actually going to show anything, but in the end of the scene the guy shows his package and all.
Saw has been a long running violent movie in the past years. Konami is now considering releasing a Saw video game for us to play. Apparently Lionsgate has made a deal with Konami to make the Saw video game.
Lionsgate was considering marketing a Saw game themselves, but decided they did not have the proper experience to properly market a video game.
The latest Grand Theft Auto rumor was one involving GTA V: Tokyo. An entirely new GTA game thought to be releasing the end of 2009. The rumor originated from the usually reliable Game Informer magazine, Issue 190.
Game Informer stated, “We’re not talking about new DLC or a collection of previously available DLC, we’re talking about a full retail game,” and gave a thoughtful title, “Tokyo”, sort of like GTAIII spin-offs.
Unfortunately, it is only a rumor. A Rockstar spokesperson told Kotaku that there is no Grand Theft Auto V planned for the year 2009. That really sucks, I hate waiting years for my favorite games to release. That is just how it is though.
