SHADOWS OF THE DAMNED PS3 & Xbox 360
Grasshopper Manufacture When a demon steals Garcia’s special ladyfriend, he decides the
only thing to do is weapon-up, head on down to the underworld and lay waste to everything in his path. Inspired by grindhouse horror and the EVIL DEAD movies, this game was the brainchild of RESIDENT EVIL’s Shinji Mikami and NO MORE HEROES’ Suda 51. It’s a very unique experience as Garcia and his talking gun (yup) drop a plethora of one-liners as they dispatch legions of the undead in an underworld populated with strip clubs and alcoholic vending machines (I recommend the absinthe). Third person shooting with lots of humor, homages to classic horror, and a decidedly adult tone.
RESISTANCE 3 PS3
Insomniac Games The aliens have invaded and they’re winning (not like Charlie
Sheen, but actually winning). Humanity is on the brink of extinction and a few small pockets of freedom fighters are the only hope for survival. The first two games in this landmark series documented the invasion and man’s efforts to fight back. But as the third game begins, little is left of the human race, the situation is as dire as it has ever been, and this may just be our last chance to fight off total annihilation. Another first person shooter that is amongst the best in gaming. Futuristic weapons and alien tech add to the already amazing experience.
DEAD RISING 2: OFF THE RECORD PC, PS3, Xbox Capcom
Series original character Frank West returns to tell his version DEAD ISLAND
Microsoft Windows, PS3, and Xbox 360 Deep Silver
Have you ever wished that you could go on vacation to an exotic
island and that while you were there a zombie outbreak occurred, allowing you to spend your vacation killing the undead in paradise? Me too! DI allows us to do that. Playing a lot like a first person action role player (FALLOUT, ELDER SCROLLS), DI puts you in the driver seat as you try to survive on the island using anything and everything at your disposal to, well, dispose of zombies. Save innocents, drive vehicles, team-up, kill the undead, choose your arsenal, level your skills. Lots of customization and the first person perspective puts you face-to-face with the brain gobblers. Put on your best Hawaiian shirt, Bermuda shorts, and flip flops as you try to just finish your vacation alive. Also a nominee for trailer of the year.
of the events in DEAD RISING 2 as he brings his camera to document the zombie invasion of Fortune City. Wear ridiculous costumes, combine objects to make insane weapons, ride around in all manner of vehicles, and slay zombies by the hundreds. With all-new areas to explore (Uranus Zone is a favorite), new game modes, and a much friendlier clock, this game takes everything that was great about DR2 and does it better.
FEAR 3
Microsoft Windows, PS3, Xbox 360 and the OnLive Day 1 Studios
Our two main characters from the
previous games return, allowing you to either blast away with Point Man or use the psychic attacks of Paxton. Battle mechs, the paranormal, and just about anything else you can imagine in this very intense, very mature first person shooter.
