Dead Space 3 trailer says there's two ways to play the game

DS3_COOP_01 EA and Visceral Games released a new trailer for Dead Space 3, letting us know that playing the game with a buddy shows a different side of the story.

I still have my doubts on adding coop on a survival horror game. Having a friend tag along eliminates that feeling of being alone surrounded by unknown terrors waiting for you. But when you think about it, I can't remember a coop game that I didn't like. Playing with a friend through a campaign is always going to be fun, no matter what, and adding a bit of change to the story in coop actually gives extra replay value once you have tackled the game alone.

Dead Space 3 hits shelves on February 5, 2013 on Playstation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance Demo coming to North America next month

MGR_screenshot_Gamescom If you're eager to try Metal Gear Solid: Revengeance and take Raiden out for a spin, you could buy the Zone of Enders HD Collection to get the demo, but I highly suggest you hold off for one more month because a demo is coming to North America.

This upcoming demo is the same demo already released in Japan and on every copy of the Zone of Enders HD Collection, so gamer's who have already tried that demo - Don't expect anything new.

If you want to see what the demo will contain and see the carnage from afar, check out Migoy's playthrough below.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is set for a February 19 2013 release on Playstation 3, and Xbox 360.

Hawken open beta starts in a few hours

Hawken-Screenshot-02The fast-paced mechwarrior-ish online game Hawken will soon hit open beta. To celebrate, Adhesive Games released a new cinematic trailer.

From all the gameplay footage I saw with Hawken, this game is somewhat similar to mechwarrior back in the day but with the speed of modern multiplayer games such as Call of Duty. The pace is what got me interested in the first place. This is purely an online multiplayer game, with four game modes planned so far. Hawken will be Free-To-Play when it gets officially released.

The client will be available for download on 12/12/12.  As I write this, the timer shown on the upper left shows the open beta starts in 10 hours. You can create an account now in preparation.

VGA 2012: South Park:The Stick of Truth

South Park: The Stick of Truth has revealed itself yet again with a new trailer for 2012's Video Game Awards. It was first announced in E3 2012 during Microsoft's press conference and got me curious. This second trailer though made me just want to buy it. It's freaking South Park. Check the trailer below.

Not much has been said yet on how the game will be played, all we know is that it's an RPG, but South Park creators (Who will be the writers for the game) wanted this game to be as if you are living in a regular episode of South Park. Everything you know and love about South Park is there, only difference is your character is now a part of it. Obsidian Entertainment is working on this title and I just hope to god they do a great job with this.
