The same developers who brought us Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions bring Spidey and Spidey 2099 back for another go. In Spider-Man Edge of Time, the present day Spiderman must team up with his counterpart from the year 2099 to save the future, and to avert Spidey’s death in the present. Players will be able to control both Spider-Men over the course of the game.
Creative Director of ID software walks us through some more Rage gameplay and talks a little about the structure of the game. Taking an open world approach for shooters seems to be a popular trend at this year’s E3 and Rage will feature this element.
Human Head Studios revealed some pretty big changes for the Prey franchise today. In the sequel, you’re not playing as Tommy the hero from the first game, and there are no portals for starters. Tommy is still a part of the story but there was no information revealed about that.
Holy crap that was hard to keep up with, I wasn’t expecting so much information to be announced about the game. The vast majority of the it is for Horde mode, which sounds absolutely brilliant. He also hints at the possibility of another Gears title, we already know about the Kinect one, so maybe they will go the prequel route, which would be a pretty great direction for them to go in.
Frank O’Connor
has just revealed some more news regarding the upcoming Halo Anniversary
edition. Perhaps the most important thing being a confirmed release date, the
15th of November. He also confirmed that the multiplayer will use
the Reach game engine, I imagine there will be a lot more details revealed in
August at the Halo fest. Firefight will be in the game and have its own unique
map, the multiplayer will also have 6 traditional maps, so expect to see fan favourites.
It’s obvious from the brief interview with Frank that a lot of the new content
is likely to be found in the multiplayer and unfortunately, is under wraps as
of now. But speculation is half of the fun on events like this, so get to it in
the comments.
If the XBLA platformer had too much testosterone for you, there’s a sequel coming that has all the flowers, ribbons, and make-up you could ever ask for. Ms. ‘Splosion Man adds a Girl Power twist to the exploding person genre and you can get a look at the pink and sparkly gameplay in this E3 trailer. Expect both praise and condemnation from women in all aspects of the media.
Halo: Combat
Evolved anniversary, a new Halo trilogy and Gears of War 3 – they are the heavy
hitters this E3 for the Xbox 360. But their showcasing really makes something
hit home with regards to Microsoft’s exclusives. That being the barrel is
drying out fast! I love both Halo and Gears of War, but they’re not going to be
enough to carry another console. Mass Effect and BioShock were huge losses for
the Xbox 360, and the overwhelmingly negative reaction to the Kinect-based
Fable is not good news for them either.
