The Controls Of Dead Space: Extraction

Visceral Games has published it’s latest video for the Wii exclusive Dead Space: Extraction. General Manager Glen Shofield and Executive Producer Steve Papoutsis demo the games controls while talking of how they made sure they felt just right. Puzzles will also be an integral part of gameplay, for example; while one player is solving a circuit puzzle, another is frantically holding off oncoming necromorphs. Extraction looks to be a promising shooter on the Nintendo Wii and we can’t wait to get our hands on it this fall.

More DLC Coming To L4D, Demo Coming For L4D2

In a recent talk with CVG, Valve’s Doug Lombardi discussed how Valve aims to support Left 4 Dead with more DLC. The announcement will come toward summers end for both PC and Xbox 360. What the DLC is remains to be seen, but knowing Valve it will probably be worth the wait. Even better, a Left 4 Dead 2 demo with multiplayer will also be arriving some time before the games official launch. Some good news from Valve, maybe those boycotters will give it a rest already.

Resident Evil: Afterlife Coming To Theaters September 2010 [Update]

Yup, another Resident Evil film is on the way. Director Paul W.S. Anderson discussed how he has been writing a 4th film for some time. Well it looks like Sony and Capcom have greenlighted Resident Evil: Afterlife for a September 17th 2010 release. The date has been sourced by an internal memo circulating both parties. No word on whether it will be a direct sequel to the less than true to the series Resident Evil: Extinction. With an ending that wide open, we are fairly certain it will be a sequel. Anderson has not confirmed if he’s directing or if Milla Jovovich will reprise her role as super experiment Alice. Seeing as how Milla was the only good thing about these films, we hope she returns.

Update: Milla Jovovich has confirmed to paparazzi that filming for Resident Evil “Numbah four” will start at the end of the year. Video after the break.

No Dead Rising 2 Info Until TGS

It seems Dead Rising 2 will remain a media no show until the Tokyo Game Show. Speaking with MTV Multiplayer, Senior Director of Communications, Chris Kramer stated that Dead Rising 2 will be showing at TGS along with other Capcom titles. So don’t expect any news at PAX or Comic Con. Capcom is still afraid of the swine flu epidemic and is keeping its Japanese higher ups like Keiji Infafune away from viral danger. Kind of ironic isn’t it?

Resident Evil Archives Now Available

So lets say you STILL haven’t played Resident Evil in one of its many forms. You’ve had a chance on the Playstation, Saturn, PC, Gamecube, DS, and the Playstation Network. Perhaps you already have and just need to rebuy it once again. Well if you are a noob or a huge fan, today is your lucky day. The Gamecube remake of Resident Evil is now available on the Wii as “Resident Evil Archives” for $29.99. The port adds nothing new to the table but a new name and cover. Sorry folks, no new fancy Wiimote controls in this one. You’ll have to look to The Darkside Chronicles for that.

Left 4 Dead 2 Coming To PS3? [Update]

In a bizarre listing on EA’s website, Left 4 Dead 2 is listed as a PC, Xbox 360 AND Playstation 3 release. We all know Valve hates the PS3’s complex architecture as said by Gabe Newell. So is this just a mistake, or is EA porting a Valve game once again? Hopefully if a EA port is the case, it wont be an utter mess like The Orange Box PS3 port was. We have contacted Valve for clarification.

UPDATE: It appears the PS3 listing has been removed from EA’s website. The likely hood that this was a data base error till exists, or could this possibly be a delay in an announcement? Only time will tell. One last possibility could simply be that EA is a big meanie.

Left 4 Dead To Receive Community Content Upgrade

Valve is gearing up for another Steam update that will incorporate more community content into Left 4 Dead. The beta authorizing tools which were released several weeks ago enabled users to create their very own campaigns. With this new update, those campaigns will now be easily accessible withing L4Ds UI. “Add-Ons” will be available under Extras for easy installing as well as under Multiplayer to play said campaigns online. One such custom campaign that has us pretty impressed even in its Beta stages is an homage to Resident Evil 3. The Authorizing tools will also be officially releasing with several new updates and tweaks. The update is expected to hit Steam next week.Is Valve trying to please some of those angered fans? Perhaps, but at least we will get to see more unique content headed to L4D.

Left 4 Dead’s Zoey Goes All Natural In Nude Mod

Well it was bound to happen. Male gamers + pretty female characters usually equals some sort of nude version of said character. Now in the case of Valve’s Left 4 Dead, Zoey has been stripped of her red sweater to something a bit more…combat hardened. The mod isn’t just a new skin for the Zoey, but an entirely new model complete with breast physics. This wouldn’t be the first time Zoey has been tied together with porn. Not so long ago a series of pornographic tributes to Left 4 Dead were made, dubbed Left 4 Head. With a gaming culture of mostly males, this kind of thing is expected. Perhaps this mod will sooth the 30,000+ angry boycotters of Left 4 Dead 2. This begs the question: When will either of the 3 male leads get their own similar mod? Yea, you think about Bill in that way.
