Activision and Beenox revealed the very first official screenshot for The Amazing Spider-Man game tie-in these days on the official Facebook page and, sadly, it’s not as action-packed as we had hoped. That’s not to say it does not look excellent – the suit is nicely detailed to match what we’ve seen in earlier shots, but I just wish there was much more to appear at.

Thankfully, the trailer that was released a month or so ago does reveal fairly a bit far more than this easy nonetheless shot. If you haven’t seen that specific trailer yet you can check it out beneath considering that were in a pretty trailer-y mood right now. If Activision and Beenox don’t really feel like giving us some cool artwork I guess we’ll just preserve staring at what we’ve already got.

The Incredible Spider-Man hits theaters July 3rd, 2012 and the game will land for Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, DS and 3DS around the same time.

To come across out far more about the title, we held an exclusive first interview with Kan Supabanpot, Basic Manager at Studio HIVE, about Tony Jaa’s involvement, the game’s background and which kind of genre it will be.

When did development on the game start?

Initial discussion about this project began in 2010 but actual game improvement began around 6 months ago.

Is the game based on the very first Ong-Bak, which was based in the contemporary world, or will it be based on the sequels, which were set in the 15th Century? Or is it something else completely?

It is based on the project that has however to be announced so that’s why it’s nonetheless a bit of a secret and no screenshots to go along with our initial announcement.

What type of genre will the game truly be? A fighting game, a third person action game?

It will be a 3D side-scrolling action game.

Will you be playing as Ting, Tien or an individual else?

We can’t say specific particulars but you will be playing as a character portrayed by Tony Jaa.

Approximately how several fighting moves will your character have?

We have around 20-30 moves though we’re not completed with the combat program. We are trying our greatest to include all fan favorite moves in right here.

Will you be able to use the atmosphere as a weapon?

No. It does not really fit in our gameplay style we have.

Is Tony Jaa [star of Ong-Bak], or any other muay Thai professional, involved in the game?

Yes. Tony Jaa himself is involved in this game and it is equally critical to tell you that master Panna Rittikrai [Ed: Thai martial arts action choreographer, Tony Jaa's mentor, Ong-Bak director and screenwriter] and his stunt team are heavily involved as he is designing action sequences and fighting moves for this game.

How considerably creative manage was Studio HIVE given more than what is an existing IP?

The team at Sahamongkol Film International is very supportive and they allow us to pitch ideas not only concerning gameplay but also visual and story components as nicely.

Ong-Bak has many really dark themes – drug abuse, overdoses and murder. Is this something we must anticipate to see in the game?

There will be a lot of brutal violence, but not with a dark theme like drugs or murder.

There’s also a concentrate on Buddhist philosophy in the films – specifically in Ong-Bak three – will that influence the game?

We want to make sure that the objective of this game is to make certain it is enjoyable for players and moreover giving fans of the series much more in-depth encounter. There will be some components of Buddhism, but it will not be our main concentrate.

The PS Vita currently has a slew of fighting games, and portables are historically quite well-liked in Asian territories. Will you be developing for the Vita?

We cannot give comments concerning release platforms right now as it will be officially announced at a later stage.

In 2008, Thailand banned a number of violent video games like Hitman and Killer Seven – do concerns about becoming banned have an effect on the content material of the Ong-Bak game?

We are establishing this game with our target audience being overseas fans so the violent video game ban in Thailand does not influence us.

When are you preparing to release the game?

We are targeting late 2012 for our release.

Remain tuned to PlayStation Life style for a lot more exclusive interviews soon.

As a lot of you could be conscious, Darksiders and I have a checkered past.  We shared a love hate relationship that continued for a lot of weeks.  I loved the gameplay and story Darksiders supplied, as nicely as the numerous puzzles that required to be solved, whilst progressing by way of the story and seeing what harm and chaos my old buddy War could give.  With that stated, when I was up against with 1 of the a lot of bosses you battle all through the game, I was faced with one of the most significant selections I had to make playing a game I loved: go to YouTube for aid.  Until that point I had played many games, and in no way had to resort to the net for support, and that is where the hate portion comes in.  I never did get past that boss battle, but I do think of my old friend War rather typically and wonder how he is performing. I do think I located a new buddy, and he goes by the name of Death. I was privileged enough to attend a Darksiders II occasion just to see if we could bond and grow to be friends with the subsequent installment in the Darksiders series, a considerably-anticipated game for myself and a lot of other Darksiders fans.

Now prior to I start I did not get “hands on” time with the game, but we were taken through a few levels, as effectively as a background of how Death has been represented in the past and how Death would be portrayed in Darksiders II. Based on what I saw, I do believe Death and I will grow to be excellent friends soon adequate.  But will a great character and my high expectations be met in Darksiders II?  Read on my friends, and I will let you know what I observed, as properly as what we had been told for the duration of a Community Round Table as David Adams Studio General Manager, Ryan Stefanelli Producer and Hayden Dalton principal Designer answered some questions the community had about Darksiders II.

Let’s set the background for you: Death, probably the most feared of the Four Horseman, is awakened by the End of Days.  He sets out to undo Armageddon and finds far worse factors going on, as an ancient grudge threatens all of Creation.  So this brings up a excellent point: is Death the proper Horseman for the job?  Of course he is as Death is, well let’s face it, Death. No 1 wants to tangle with him, and that is what tends to make him the most feared of the 4 Horseman.

If you are familiar with Darksiders you already know that the game took location for the duration of the untimely earthly Apocalypse, and Darksiders II takes spot throughout the identical time.  So will Darksiders II appear and feel like the 1st Darksiders?  I would have to say no, as the combat technique has been enhanced upon, the art and graphics have been tweaked, and the game has its own feeling and style.  As we know already (if you played Darksiders), War was a straightforward fighter, who was most likely to use his powers to charge by way of an area and leave a heap enemies behind him.  Death takes a different approach: he is a nimble and agile character with moves like a wall run that, by chaining together jumps, will let him to traverse down a narrow hallway or even between walls.  Death will also be in a position to beam run, which makes it possible for him to run along thin platforms such as chains and ropes, making him a lot far more agile than War, as War prefered the hand over hand technique.  Throw in a Pillar Climb/Jump to the Wall bounce, and Death proves to be quite agile.  One movement that sticks out is the Ghost Hand. When you acquire this item in the game, Death can hook onto attachments identified in the game, and pull himself towards them.  He can also use this motion and chain it together with other moves, creating him that more agile.

Combat is quite impressive in Darksiders II (not that it wasn’t in Darksiders), as you have your basic moves from Evade, Jump and Death’s primary weapon: his dual Scythes that change shape as Death performs diverse combos of attack.  From being joined together to form a single weapon to tossing an enemy in the air, they are very impressive.  Death’s secondary weapons can be combined with the Scythe maneuvers and form an impressive combo.  Ghost Hand that I touched on above can also be utilized throughout combat as Death will be pulled closer to an enemy, permitting him to get up close and personal with a single of the many mini-bosses he will face let’s just say Death can reach out and touch someone in brief order.  Death can also use his Reaper Form, were he can carry out a Reaper attack that supplies a quick death to his enemies. An unlockable skill for this form is the Reaper Transformation: a really effective move that will be accessible to use when the Reaper Meter when it is full.  Death’s time as a Reaper is restricted, and need to be utilized to trigger huge damage to numerous enemies at once, or for a single of the larger boss battles you will face.  Death will also obtain many spells and skills, from summoning up a horde of exploding zombies, to employing necrotic power. It is good to see that Death is not limited to becoming a Scythe swinging death machine, and is allowed to take a more wizardly path.  Either way the destruction left in Death’s wake will be impressive.

Like I said earlier, we did not get hands-on time with the game, but we do have some a lot more data to pass along.  Darksiders II does not have a set in stone release date, but we do know to expect the game this summer.  The game will be accessible for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Computer and the Wii U (yes I said Wii U, this was not a typo).  Darksiders II is set to give us 30 hours of gameplay, and will alow the player to go back to side quests and additional content material even following the story ends.
Darksiders II: Death Lives shows a lot of promise. To answer my question from the begining, Death and I will be a match created in heaven, and it looks like we will be spending some top quality time together in the future attempting to clear War’s name.

Majesco’s Cooking Mama 4 is also due for a demo right now, but like RE: Revelations it really is nonetheless a no-show as of about 7:00 AM PST.

But the actual strategy to make the demo readily available on the console represents a shift on Nintendo’s portion to a more agile way of approaching digital content right after their previous console generation saw them not really having significantly in the way of an aggressive approach to counter the now enormous smartphone app market. What that signifies is that they’ll be joining the rest of us back in 2006 or so, offering not only demos through the eShop service but permitting developers to provide DLC for users going forward. Upcoming demos contain Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D, Mario &amp Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games, and Rhythm Thief &amp the Emperor’s Treasure (although currently, none of these has a firm release date).

But they are fairly keen to move towards that – they do see it as the future.”

According to Burns, the initial Xbox 360 version of Minecraft will be based on the 1.6.6 beta of the Pc version.

As for patch certification, regardless of an accelerated schedule for updating the XBLA version of the Minecraft, Microsoft will nonetheless test all of the patches. “The complete turnaround of that testing they’re hoping to speed up, so we can maybe roll out every two months. We’ll have to see how that goes.”

Minecraft will be released on Xbox Live Arcade sometime in 2012, and will include Kinect help.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD General Information:
Developer: Robomodo
Publisher: Activision
Release Date: Summer 2012
Platforms: Xbox Reside Arcade, PlayStation Network

Tony Hawk and Activision officially announced the upcoming Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD at the 2011 VGA’s. It appears that the as soon as-respected skateboarding franchise is lastly going back to its roots with Robomodo’s HD re-make. Read on right after the jump for our 1st appear at the revival of the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater series.

The Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater series was 1 of my favorites on the PlayStation and the PlayStation two the first few games in the franchise truly appealed to both gamers and skaters alike. Tony Hawk’s Underground was the final game I really enjoyed, since the following installment – Tony Hawk’s Underground two – officially marked the downfall of the series, introducing obnoxious Jackass-inspired antics to its ridiculous Profession Mode. Right after that, American Wasteland, Downhill Jam, Project 8, and the laughable Ride diluted the franchise with gimmicky garbage no 1 truly seemed to want. EA’s Skate series picked up a lot of steam and effectively sent Tony Hawk and Co. into hiatus.

Soon after a couple of years, it appears that Activision is lastly listening to the fans – Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD is essentially a compilation of the best stuff from the initial two games, THPS and THPS2. Of course, some of the moves from the later games – reverts, spine transfers – will also be included in the downloadable title.

There are only three confirmed levels – Warehouse, Downhill, and School (THPS2), but the developers have apparently accomplished more than sharpen the graphics, they’re truly utilizing the original game files from THPS and THPS2 to make certain that the re-produced maps are perfectly authentic. I would truly like to see some other favorites from the past games - Downtown, Roswell, San Francisco, New York City, Venice Beach, Skatestreet – and I’m sure many of them will at some point make the cut. This is just speculation, but I would think about all of the levels from Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2x – an original Xbox launch title – will be featured in THPS HD.

Returning skaters include favorites like Tony Hawk, Rodney Mullen, and Andrew Reynolds. There are also some newer skaters introduced to the mix – Chris Cole, Nyjah Houston, and Tony’s son, Riley Hawk. Secret characters have also been confirmed none have been mentioned especially, but I would guess that we will see Ollie the Magic Bum and possibly Spider-man.

The visuals in THPS HD clearly appear a lot better, which you can see in the trailer below:

Regrettably, there is some tragic news for fans of the classic games to stomach: the re-make won’t feature the original soundtracks from THPS and THPS2. This is a true bummer for me component of the enjoyable was skating to music from Dead Kennedys, Primus, Goldfinger, Negative Religion, and “Guerilla Radio” from Rage Against the Machine. In truth, I still assume of THPS2 every single single time I hear “Guerilla Radio”. This is largely due to licensing concerns Activision promises that the soundtrack in THPS HD will be suitable for the game, but it will be challenging to replace those classic songs while skating via the game.

The classic gameplay remains largely unchanged – two-minute sessions in each and every level, with different challenges and objectives to total as swiftly as doable in that time span. Apparently the “Secret Tapes” have been changed to DVDs (very good ol’ modernization), but that appears to be the only key adjust. I would like to see the “Sick” score challenges from the later games return, specifically with the addition of reverts – scoring 50,000 points just will not be a challenge in these classic levels, now that you can basically keep a combo going for as long as you can maintain your balance. Tony Hawk seemed to be excited about the controls, saying THPS HD would be a quite smooth encounter like its classic predecessors.

Not a lot else is known at this point about THPS HD, but you can be sure to see much more details about this title as it comes out. At the VGAs, it was announced that the game would cost much less than $ 20 – rumors point to $ 15, or 1200 Microsoft Points on Xbox Reside. There is nonetheless no official release date, but Activision has targeted a summer 2012 release.

What do you feel? Is the loss of the classic soundtrack going to be a deal-breaker when this a single hits XBLA and PSN? I was disappointed, but I would nonetheless absolutely adore to go back and play the classic Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater games with enhanced graphics, so I completely intend to drop the $ 15-20 to pick it up. Let us know how you really feel in the comments section!
