Omega Five - Xbox Live Arcade

360 Preview | Omega Five - Xbox Live Arcade

Sept 12, 2007 Xbox Live Arcade doesnt appreciate your stereotypes, dammit, and its ready to do something about it - that something being Omega Five. With its mercilessly ball-busting difficulty, this old school, side-scrolling shooter will never be mistaken for anything remotely resembling a “casual ...

Onechanbara: vorteX - hands-on

360 Preview | Onechanbara

The question at this point isn't whether Onechanbara: vorteX will come out in the US. The question is why it's taken this long. Now a long-running budget series in Japan, the Onechanbara (a Japanese pun meaning "big sister sword fight") games are built around a very simple concept: hot chicks with very little clothing slice up hordes of slow, dull-witted zombies and get covered with gore in the process. It's exactly as stupid and repetitive as it sounds, but it's hard to imagine a game that's ...

Onechanbara heading to the 360

360 Preview | Onechanbara: Bikini Samurai Squad

We can now cross “bloody babes battling zombies” off our list of strange things from Japan we’d like to see in the West since D3Publisher has announced that Onechanbara: Bikini Samurai Squad will be heading to the Xbox 360 in early 2009. ...

Operation Darkness - updated hands-on

360 Preview | Operation Darkness

Not since Return to Castle Wolfenstein has killing Nazi zombies felt so good - but after 45 minutes with this strategy RPG-cum-WWII shooter, it becomes apparent that something’s weird about Operation Darkness. About the second motionless cutscene in, it hits you: this game is a zombie made up of parts of rotting genres. Those genres typically don’t have much to do with each other - fantasy RPG and strategy RPG might brush up ...

Operation Darkness - hands on

360 Preview | Operation Darkness

Dec 27, 2007 While the 360 has been concentrating its success in Japan on a few key titles (Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey, Ninja Gaiden II), most everything else has been under the radar. However, that doesnt mean there isn't some good stuff here. With this in mind, strategy RPG Operation Darkness should grab your attention: It has an “interesting” take on World War II (including demons and magical fireballs) that might pique gamers interest due to its nutty, screw-loose scenario. And ...

Operation Flashpoint 2: Dragon Rising

360 Preview | Operation Flashpoint 2: Dragon Rising

Imagine if you were playing a war game and you suddenly noticed that the weapon you were wielding was held together by eight-sided nuts instead of the statutory six-siders. You’d naturally be horrified, the integrity of the experience would be compromised, and you’d probably never touch it again. ...

Operation Flashpoint 2: Dragon Rising

360 Preview | Operation Flashpoint 2: Dragon Rising

There is one question to ask, one question to answer even before the demonstration begins. One question that almost defines the development of Operation Flashpoint 2. “Can you do that?” We point at the incredible rendered scenes that the British developers, Codemasters, have made available to the press. ...

Operation Flashpoint 2: Dragon Rising

360 Preview | Operation Flashpoint 2: Dragon Rising

Currently feathering its nest with engine-refinements before presenting itself to the world in its full-motion glory, Operation Flashpoint 2 could be the most hardcore military sim weve seen in ...

The Outfit

360 Preview | The Outfit

World War II games have become so popular, so plentiful ... and so predictable. But by red-lining the destruction factor on what could have been just another walking tour of Europe, this Action/Real-time Strategy hybrid should blast some much needed innovation into this aging genre. A strategy game with a hunger for shrapnel-based drama, The Outfit may be best decribed as an RTS played from the point of view of one of the mid-rank commanding units. It will serve up three different playable ...

The outfit

360 Preview | The Outfit

Youre in the Army now, you hear? Its time to blow stuff up and YOU WILL ENJOY IT! Go anywhere near the offices of Canadian-based coders Relic, and thats all youre likely to hear, as they put the finishing touches on their impressive WW2 shooter, The Outfit. This is a war game, yes, but an accurate representation of WW2 this most certainly isnt. This is the Jerry Bruckheimer version, the nitro-fed turbo edition, the most intensely exciting strategic frag-fest youll ever see. Honest. Choosing ...
