Rockstar has released a posse of new images and movies from its upcoming sidewalk scrapper The Warriors. Besides slugging it out with rival gangs - and as we reported in our - players will be offered a variety of criminal distractions to keep them busy, namely robbing stores and stealing car stereos. Both of these crooked activities are shown in the movies below and also demonstrate how 'war chief' commands (orders issued to the crew by the gang leader) can be used during these scenarios ...

The Warriors shot riot

Xbox News | The Warriors

Rockstar has released a selection of new shots from its upcoming adaptation of 1979 cult movie The Warriors. As we've come to expect from the GTA and Manhunt publisher, The Warriors promises to feature plenty of gratuitous violence as the action follows a persecuted posse fighting its way home through hostile New York gang turf. In addition to brainless brutality, there's also mindless miscreant mischief to be had in the form of looting, mugging and swiping car stereos. We a little while ...

The Warriors goes to war

Xbox News | The Warriors

Rockstar has unveiled a trio of new shots of its retro-fuelled fist-fest The Warriors, the ages-in-the making free-roaming fighter inspired by the cult movie of the same name. While there is still little in the way of firm info known about the game, we're expecting it to have elements of prior Rockstar games like and , just with added bandanas. For earlier screenshots, . The Warriors will be released for PS2 and Xbox in ...

The Warriors: New screens emerge

Xbox News | The Warriors

The Rockstar PR machine has kicked into life again today with the result of the first proper screenshots of The Warriors. However, in typically enigmatic fashion, the GTA publisher hasn't released any new information on the game. What we do already know, however, is that the game's storyline is set before the cult classic (and entirely cheesy) 1979 gang flick, which follows New York gang The Warriors as they attempt to escape from the enemy turf of the Upper Bronx back to their home territory ...

The Warriors: First shots and details

Xbox News | The Warriors

After hearing whispers of Rockstar's take on cult movie The Warriors for what seems like years, we've finally got hold of some solid details of what the PS2 and Xbox title will entail. Not only that, we've also uncovered the first ever shots of the game in action (albeit in dodgy scanned-in-from-a-magazine stylee). The shots in question have been hosted by a Warriors fan site and are taken from the new issue of US mag Game Informer. The images aren't of the highest quality but they do ...

Whiplash: Latest bunny-swinging shots

Xbox News | Whiplash

I bet Shigsy was really chuffed when he came up with Mario's magic water pack in Sunshine. You can imagine him cracking open a Stella and chucking a bundle of crisp yen on the fire, safe in the knowledge he'd set the benchmark for platformers for the next five years. Trouble is, he got it wrong! Hoses aren't the future; rabbits on chains is where it's at - a point proved by Whiplash, a platformer that breaks new ground in bunny use.The rabbit in question is Redmond, who's chained up to a weasel ...

Fortified with sniping

Xbox News | Winback 2: Project Poseidon

KOEI announced today that Winback 2: Project Poseidon will be available next month on PS2 and Xbox. Similar to the original shootfest Winback, you direct a team of three highly trained counter-terrorism operatives in their desperate attempt to retrieve a doomsday device that threatens the entire world. Granted, we've seen this setup about a million times by now, but terrorists apparently never learn their lesson. Although the plot doesn't seem original, a new "route" system that provides the ...

Without Warning revealed

Xbox News | Without Warning

After World War II, mouthy but endearingly furry sidekicks and cel-shading, the latest trend in gaming seems to be for multiple playable characters. Or games where groups of heroes share the lead role, giving the gamer their own unique view of the story. Core Design's Project Eden first attempted it a few years ago but, since then, we've seen Metal Gear Solid 2 divide the battles between Raiden and Snake and soon Killer 7 will be here to do the same - but with multiple personalities. Which in a ...
