Resident Evil 5: PC In Depth Blow-Out! (Released Today!)

With Resident Evil 5 for the PC, being released tomorrow (September 15th) In the U.S. with a European release for this Friday (September 18th), We thought we would go all out, with a barrage of information for the game as to both inform and encourage people to purchase this forward thinking PC release, which is certainly the definitive version of Resident Evil 5.
First things first, If you haven’t played Resident Evil 5 on the Xbox 360 or Playstation 3, or are coming in as a newbie to the Resident Evil series, then where have you been? The game has currently sold over 5 million copies worldwide and is now the highest selling game of the Resident Evil franchise. Although this is titled Resident Evil 5, this is actually the seventh instalment in the main Resident Evil series. (This is due to the prequel release of Resident Evil 0 (zero) and the non numbered release, Resident Evil: Code Veronica (x)). This new version should be highly considered as a purchase for both those who haven’t yet experienced the game or those who want to know what Resident Evil is all about.

Just Cause 2 dev diary is free, free fallin’

September 13th, 2009 Jarralz No comments

Spider-Man’s got nothing on Just Cause 2’s returning protagonist, Rico Rodriguez. Sure, Spidey’s got a whole host of arachnid super-enhancements — but Rico’s various modes of aerial travel make web-swinging seem so … pedestrianThe dev diary posted above gives a great look at our hero’s proclivity for base jumping, hookshotting, parachuting and helicopter-jacking. We’re sure Isaac Newton would have a few hang-ups about the poetic liberties Just Cause 2 is taking with physics — but you’ll hear no objections from us.

Wolfenstein sells 106k units in first week, all bets off

When the NPD released its figures for August, we noticed Wolfenstein was absent from the top-sellers list. Sure, the title was only available for purchase during a few days of August (it released August 21 on PS3, Xbox 360 and PC), but one of those versions had to have sold more than Fossil Fighters, which was in tenth place on the sales chart with 92,000 sold, right? Gamespot says, no.

Apparently, id’s resurrected shooter only sold 106,000 across all platforms — 59,000 units on Xbox 360, 30,000 on PS3 and 16,000 on PC. In other words, the PS2 version of Madden alone outsold combined sales of Wolfenstein. Disappointing, for sure, since you must have really been hoping to get your money back.

First look at Just Cause 2 in E3

June 5th, 2009 Nevaeh No comments

Just Cause, released a few years back now as a GTA clone set on a sparsely-populated tropical island, was one of those games where you went “eh, nice idea, but really needs a sequel to get it right”. And from what I’ve seen of the sequel so far, it’s getting things so, so right. Read more…
