Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City Brutality Trailer

Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City Capcom released a new trailer showing the many ways to deal with the infected in Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City. There's lots of throat slitting, head stomping, and you can actually shove a grenade into a zombies mouth. Oh and just to let you know Capcom, adding a heavy rock band doesn't make it more brutal.

The ability to play in 4 player coop on both single player and multiplayer is what might just make me get this game. I really don't see it being a great game but playing with three buddies will make the purchase worthwhile. I can already see myself setting a friend to be Tyrant prey.

Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City comes out on March 20 on Playstation 3 and Xbox 360, with the PC version coming on May 18.

Borderlands 2 dated, out on September 18 in North America and September 21 for the rest

Borderlands 2 After the reveal of Borderlands 2, Gearbox has gone silent with the sequel. Now they lifted the curtains and revealed tons of information with just one trailer. The video gives us a look at the new and improved Pandora, all new playable characters, more guns to loot, and most important of all, a release date.

The sequel will bring a new set of skill trees, playable characters, and a bigger variety of guns to loot. The game of course can still be played as a 4 player coop, so is split screen.  The old characters from the first game as you can see make an appearance but now as NPC's.

They also mentioned bonuses if you pre-order the game. Pre-ordering will earn you the Gearbox Gun Pack, a Golden Key and the Vault Hunter’s Relic.

I played Borderlands recently with friends to finally finish all the DLC's of the game. We knocked out everything but claptrap's revolution. Thanks to the trailer, I'm hyped again to hop back into it and take on the last DLC.

 

Game's out this week - Asura's Wrath, Syndicate

Asura's Wrath Two games are out this week in the Philippines, and on time with the rest of the world too. The over the top Dragon Ball-ish game called Asura's Wrath and Syndicate; a remake of the classic game that was one a real-time tactical game now turned into a typical FPS. If these games are up your alley, go ahead and check your favorite game store. Reviews are also out so have a look-see to what critics have to say.

Asura's Wrath

Asura's Wrath

I've tried the demo and got the impression that your going to spend most of your time watching that playing. With all the reviews I've been reading, that seems to be the case with Asura's Wrath. The game looks amazing,but the lack of content is shying me away from this title. Some local stores are pricing the game at P 1,890 for both Xbox 360 and PS3. take note that this game only needs around 6 hours to beat from what I'm reading and might have weak replay value.

New Syndicate game

Syndicate

Yet another FPS title. I also got the chance to try the demo but it was only for the coop part of the game. Even  with all the progression and upgrades given, the coop came out dull for me. You really only have 9 stages to make use of all those upgrades. The single player is definitely the selling point in the game, with coop just adding extra meat to the title. If you like the cyber punk setting, you might get a trip on this game all about corporate espionage and whatnot. Plus you get the ability to hack into someones brain and force him to commit suicide, that should be fun. The game is being priced here in the Philippines for around php 1,995 for the PS3 and  Xbox 360 with the PC being cheaper at php 1,295.

Mass Effect 3 Take Earth Back Extended Trailer

Mass Effect 3 mass Effect 3's extended cinematic trailer for Take Earth Back has gone live. It just as epic as the shorter version with added footage, they also re-used some footage from the very first trailer of Mass Effect 3. Oh the hype! Just two more weeks.

If the people who created this trailer is in charge of creating the possible movie adaptation of Mass Effect, it's going to blow people's minds. If you miss the shorter version released a few days ago, check it out. I personally prefer the shorter one.

The battle to take back earth starts on March 6 on the Playstation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.
