Deadpool Video Game Announced, Trailer

After one of our favourite Marvel characters appeared, then was butchered in the movie X-Men Origins: Wolverine, then a great guest spot in the Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions game, finally, Deadpool is getting his own video game.

Deadpool: The Game is being developed by High Moon Studios (Transformers: Fall of Cybertron) and will arrive in 2013, presumably on PS3, Xbox 360 and possibly PC and Wii U, although no platforms have officially been announced.

In the trailer below, you'll notice it seems that the voice of the Merc with a Mouth appears to be Nolan North, (famous for being Nathan Drake in Uncharted) who also played Deadpool in Shattered Dimensions, and the animated movie Hulk vs Wolverine.

The Walking Dead Video Game Teaser Trailer (video)

Announced by Activision on July 6, 2012, The Walking Dead Video Game (not to be confused with Telltale Games The Walking Dead Game) will star the Dixon brothers: Daryl Dixon and his brother Merle Dixon. The timeline of this game takes place before the beginning of the TV series, focusing on the two brothers' journey to Atlanta.

The game is a new first-person shooter based on the TV storyline of The Walking Dead, and whilst the game is all in first-person, the gameplay is much more akin to a survival horror, where resources like food and ammunition will be scarce and must be managed, as well as the brothers ability to either take down the walkers (zombies) or use stealth to slip past the undead.

OFFICIAL PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The iconic walkers will relentlessly hunt down players like their television counterparts, using a combination of sight, sound and smell. As Daryl, players will need to tread carefully throughout each new area they explore. Once discovered, it doesn't take much to attract an unstoppable horde of undead walkers, so every threat needs to be assessed, and every situation analyzed. Players will have to choose between whether to stay and fight while risking a gruesome death or using stealth to avoid the undead. No place is truly safe for Daryl as he makes his way through the Georgia countryside in this new, post-apocalyptic world.

The Walking Dead: The Game: Episode 2: Starved for Help Review (Ps3)

The second of five downloadable episodes, Starved for Help picks up three months after the zombie apocalypse broke out in Episode 1 of The Walking Dead, still playing as protagonist Lee Everett, protecting Clementine, and dealing with a group of survivors assembled at a makeshift fortress that used to be a motel.

The Walking Dead: The Game is all about choice and consequence, and in Episode 2, we get to see just how our choices have panned out. In a "Previously, on the Walking Dead", we see all the choices we made from Episode 1 carried over to the next instalment. This is a game where you don't get a second chance to say/do something (without starting a new game). You have a limited time to to make a choice that will influence your friends and make new enemies.

Starved for Help opens with a truly horrific moment (if you choose to play it that way) and after the gut wrenching blood bath is over, you then have to make a moral decision: The group's nearly out of food, and when it's up to you to choose which few survivors get rations for the day, you have to figure out if you're playing favorites or focusing on the greater good of the group. If you're smart, you can figure out a way to make the majority of people happy (or even take some food yourself).

Episode 2 gives us, for the first time, the real chance to decide if Lee's going to be an upstanding person or a survivor willing to do anything to live another day. It's the first time a game has had me debating whose side I was on and turning my back on established relationships, genuinely moving me in some cases. I can't think of another game that had me establish a character I thought I knew and had a connection with, then have me re-thinking big decisions a few scenes later, even though I knew I couldn't change it.

When a new group of survivors from the St. John's Dairy Farm show up and invite your group to come over and trade gas for food, you're left with the decisions of obviously taking their offer, or the unknown of whether or not you can trust these random strangers. The group needs food, you're pretty much out, and with the world gone to hell, you're going to need all the supplies you can get to keep your group alive, but are these guys legit?

Whatever choice you make, Episode 2 will shock you to your very core.

The most shocking entry so far, Starved For Help is a brilliant new episode of the Walking Dead game, and also the most brutal.

Going Deep Into The Unknown, Star Wars 1313

When Star Wars 1313 was announced, we all thought it'd be for some kind of new CGI series or even a new comic book. But what we got instead, was Uncharted's Nathan Drake crossed with a dark, seedy underbelly of the Star Wars universe.

Star Wars 1313 introduces an integrated development approach by bringing together great artists across the Lucasfilm organization, including LucasArts, Industrial Light & Magic, Lucasfilm Animation Ltd. and Skywalker Sound. A third person cinematic action adventure game, Star Wars 1313 will bring to life the Coruscant underworld, the most dangerous place in the Star Wars™ galaxy.

Named for Level 1313, a ruthless criminal underground deep below the surface of the planet of Coruscant, the game puts players in control of a deadly bounty hunter as he uses an arsenal of exotic weaponry to hunt down his marks and uncover the truth surrounding a criminal conspiracy. Star Wars 1313 emphasizes epic set pieces and fast-paced combat with a hero who uses human skills and gadgets, rather than supernatural Force powers, to make his way through this dangerous world.

We featured 1313 in our E3 2012 highlights (Part 1), but here's some more for your beautiful eyes.

Star Wars 1313 will feature epic action adventure gameplay including exotic weaponry and gadgets that bounty hunters depend on for survival. In addition, the game will feature a combination of agile cover-based combat, epic platforming and seamless playable cinematic game play. Players will experience awe-inspiring and action-packed cinematic sequences, constantly staying engaged through the threat, pressure and tension of this criminal underworld.

Xbox 720 Price, Features Revealed in Rumored 'Unconfirmed' Document

Remember, this is all speculation and rumour, but an unconfirmed document allegedly leaking out of Microsoft reveals the company's five-year plan, price, and features for the Xbox 720.

[Update] The document has been taken removed from its original source at the request of Covington & Burling, a law firm that advises Microsoft. Reaching out to Microsoft, who's reply was "We do not comment on rumors or speculation", and wouldn't comment on if the document was removed for being a forgery or not

Original Story:

The document takes a look at all the possibilities for Xbox 360 in 2011 leading up to the launch of the next generation in 2013, which includes a new Kinect sensor at a (possible) launch in a $299 bundle. Notable changes include a blu-ray disc drive, as well as a focus on and tablet integration and a whole lot more, but what the heck are you still doing here? Head over to read all 56 pages of the document!

We've reached out to Microsoft regarding the issue, but, as expected, they've not replied, although if they do, we can't imagine them confirming this.
