Friends Don't Leave Friends to Die in 'Left 4 Dead'April 02nd, 2008 at 7:49 AM by Nicholas "bapenguin" Puleo

Everybody loves a good zombie game.  Dead Rising was an amazing title.  The Resident Evil series is legendary.  But there's a new kid on the block, and the game has you fighting for surivival.  But it's not one man versus the world in Valve's upcoming game Left for Dead.  The game is tightly focused on team-play, specifically 4 player cooperative action. 

Next-Gen has a short preview of the latest build of the title.

It’s unlike almost any other FPS experience (the closest relations are probably the Aliens Vs Predator games), and the infected find themselves constantly working on new ways to mess up the plans of the escaping survivors, dogging them constantly, right through the epic final showdown. On the Farmhouse level this was a military truck arriving to take the players from the scene, and that means staying put in the farmyard for five minutes as wave after cresting wave of rabid zombies pours in from the cornfields. It’s a spectacularly gory crescendo, especially when the survivors find the mounted Gatling gun.

Left 4 Dead will feature 5 large scenarios, and should be availble this June on both the Xbox 360 and PC.

A recent e-mail from Atlus has announced the upcoming release of Operation Darkness, a strategy RPG for the Xbox 360.

What do you get when you combine World War II Germany, Nazis, vampires, zombies, and werewolves?
 
Well, you either get one heck of a Halloween party, or you get the awesome strategy RPG for Xbox 360®, Operation Darkness.
 
Take on Hitler and his occult legions as you battle to save the world from the jaws of oppression and tyranny!
 

And the great news?

...Operation Darkness has cooperative play for up to 4 people over Xbox LIVE...

 

Monster Madness: Grave Danger AnnouncedFebruary 06th, 2008 at 7:42 AM by Nicholas "bapenguin" Puleo

If you are a fan of the Smash TV style of games, than the Monster Madness series is right up your alley.  To date though, PS3 owners have been left in the dark with the previous title, Monster Madness: Battle for Suburbia, only being available on PC and Xbox 360.  But now Southpeak Games has announced the sequel is coming to the Playstation 3.

SouthPeak Games has confirmed the final title for the next installment of the Monster Madness series – Monster Madness: Grave Danger – coming to PLAYSTATION 3. First announced in September 2007 under the working title of “Monster Madness: EX,” Grave Danger will include a number of new and improved features. Fan feedback from the original “Battle for Suburbia” has been taken to heart and every Zombie, Werewolf and Vampire has been recalled to square one.

The title’s developer, Psyonix Studios, has taken the series back to the drawing board and analyzed every aspect of the game to revamp and fully realize the core fast paced monster blasting action for its foray onto the PS3. Improvements from the original Monster Madness: Battle for Suburbia include, completely reconstructed camera angles, tightened control scheme, updated graphics and expanded online multiplayer modes. One of the biggest requests from fans the first time around was an online cooperative story mode. Monster Madness: Grave Danger includes four player online co-op...

Look for the new game to ship sometime this spring.
