Watch this new trailer for Rob Zombie’s Halloween 2, also known as H2.

H2 hits theaters on August 28th!

This is the first teaser trailer for H2, Rob Zombies second Halloween movie. I think they’re actually going with the title “H2″. Are they too lazy to just call it Halloween 2? It really doesn’t take that long to say.

As a kid growing up, Michael Myers was always the most horrifying to me. Even more than Freddy, Jason, Chucky, or any other horror movie bad guy. I’m not sure why; maybe it was that white Captain Kirk mask. Michael is going to be unmasked for the majority of this movie though. I’ll sleep easy.

Watch the trailer above. Halloween 2 slashes it’s way into theaters on August 28th.

Personally, I haven’t played the game yet. I’m kind of scared to. All the bad reviews are making me think this game might ruin my love for the Resident Evil franchise. I agree with most reviews, that RE5 is pretty much just RE4 with new graphics slapped over it. The demo was decent, but… it was 100x more fun with a co-op partner than alone.

Capcom has said Resident Evil 6 will be a full reboot for the franchise. I hope we get a new zombie outbreak, in a new city, with new characters. I live Leon, Claire, Jill, and Chris, but I’d like to see some new blood in the series.

If you’re a Wii owner, and can’t play Resident Evil 5, don’t worry, Capcom also announced 3 new Resident Evil games for the Wii. Well, 1  new game, and 2 ports. They’re porting the original Resident Evil, and Resident Evil: Zero to the Wii, as well as releasing a follow up to Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles. The game will be called Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles, and like Umbrella Chronicles, will be an “on rails” arcade shooter, that takes place during the time of Resident Evil 2, with Leon and Claire.

Capcom has announced that they will port Resident Evil and Resident Evil Zero to the Wii. The original Resident Evil was already ported to the Gamecube and Resident Evil Zero was an exclusive Gamecube game. Resident Evil Zero’s Wii port has been out in Japan for a while now, and it’s finally being released to the rest of the world. Both Resident Evil and Resident Evil Zero have been refitted to support the Wiimote and Nunchuk. I’m assuming that means they’ll both have an aiming system like Resident Evil 4 did on the Wii. If not, then there really isn’t any point in buying them; you can just play the Gamecube versions with the Wii.

So, two down, one to go. Many Resident Evil fans, including myself, want a full blown remake of Resident Evil 2. It’s easily my favorite of all the RE games so far, closely followed by RE4; and it needs a makeover with current generation consoles. It looks like we’re getting our wish…almost. Capcom has announced Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles, which is the follow up to the Wii game, Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles.

Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicles will take place in Raccoon City, and cover the story from Resident Evil 2. Leon and Claire will be the main characters of course. It will be an “on rails”, arcade type shooter just like Umbrella Chronicles. Sure, it’s not the remake of the actual game that we all wanted, but maybe, just maybe…one day we’ll get it.

Resident Evil 5 looks amazing, and it definitely looks like a worthy addition to the RE storyline. Would I rather have zombies, like there was back in the day? Sure, but this is good…for now.

Capcom has said that the next installment, Resident Evil 6, will be a full reboot of the series, and I’m glad. I’ve played all Resident Evil 1-4, as well as Code Veronica and Zero, and I have to say, even though I loved Resident Evil 4, zombies just make the game feel more intense and scary. Hopefully RE6 will give us a new city, new characters, and a new zombie outbreak.

Capcom has also said that Wii Owners/Resident Evil fans will be “very happy, very soon”. What does this mean? A new Resident Evil game for the Wii? Could the Resident Evil Zero port that is only out in Japan be coming to the US and the rest of the world? They better not get people all hyped up for another Umbrella Chronicles or any “on rails” game.

Resident Evil 5 is out now in Japan, and hits the US and Europe on March 13th.

The 5th episode of the Resident Evil Retrospective takes us through Resident Evil 4, and all of the movies.

Watch Parts 1, 2, 3 and 4.

Second video after the break…

Pick up Resident Evil 5 on March 13th; for the Xbox 360 and PS3.

If you’ve never seen The Shining before, then this video probably doesn’t mean anything to you.

The third episode of the Resident Evil Retrospective gives us the history of Resident Evil: Code Veronica for the Sega Dreamcast, and Resident Evil Zero for the Nintendo Gamecube. Both great games, and both in my top 4 favorite RE games so far.

Watch Parts 1, and 2 for the history of Resident Evil 1-3.

They’re calling the game “Dead Space: Extraction”. Sure, the graphics won’t be as amazing as Xbox 360 or Playstation 3, but I’m glad to see the Wii getting more and more games that aren’t shovelware; like balloon popping and dart throwing games. Look for Dead Space on Wii towards the end of the year.

This has to be one of the best video game trailers I’ve ever seen. If you’re into the Resident Evil series, you’ll love this trailer. All the history with Chris, Wesker, and at the end of the trailer, I’m guessing the hidden face is that of Claire, Chris’s sister.

Who knows, it might even be Jill Valentine; we haven’t seen her since Resident Evil 3. It could be her because in a trailer for Resident Evil 5 last year, there was a single frame, and it showed Jill’s tombstone. Why bother showing her tombstone if she has nothing to do with the game? Also because Chris and Jill were the two main characters in Resident Evil 1.

Resident Evil 5 is hitting shelves on March 13th, for the PS3 and Xbox 360. Continue reading this post to see some new gameplay footage.

Part 2 of the Resident Evil Retrospective gives us a detailed look at the history of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3.

Watch Part 1.

In part 1 of the 6 episode Resident Evil Retrospective, we get a detailed history on Resident Evil 1, and all of it’s adaptations and ports. Look for the next episodes to cover Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil 3, and so on.

Resident Evil 5 is hitting shelves on March 13th in North America, for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3.

UPDATE: It looks like the demo is only available for Xbox Live Gold members, not Silver members. Silver members should get the demo in the next week or so. PS3 owners will get the demo on February 2nd.

The download size is 478MB, and only takes a couple minutes if you’re using a decent connection.

You get to play 2 levels, but there’s only about 10 or 15 minutes of gameplay. As soon as the demo started, I noticed the new inventory menu. In previous Resident Evil games, when you brought up the inventory, the game paused, and you could change guns, heal, or whatever you wanted to do. In this game, the inventory pops up in a little box, but the game does not stop. That means, if you’re about to die, good luck healing fast enough or switching to a better weapon.

The full game hits shelves in Japan on March 5th, and in North America on March 13th.

This is some more footage from the demo, which you can download on your Xbox 360, or on your computer via Steam, right now. Left 4 Dead comes out tomorrow, November 18th.

You can download the demo on Xbox Live or on Steam right now. When I played, I purposely set off the car alarm. Who didn’t? You can’t play the demo and not get the urge to attract hundreds of zombies to your location. Game comes out next week!

It’s the zombie apocalypse! The Left 4 Dead demo is now available in the Xbox Live Marketplace and on Steam! I just finished the demo, and I have to say, it was pretty scary at first. From watching all the trailers and videos, you know there will be a horde of zombies pummeling you at any second. Wave after wave, the zombies don’t change much, a lot of recycled models, but it’s still fun. It’s not much of a big deal, but I notcied that you’re always aiming. You cannot go in and out of aim, you aim constantly. I guess that would be good thing during the real zombie apocalyspe, at least until you have to scratch your nose or something. All in all, the demo was pretty fun, but I feel like the demo might just have given me enough to see the entire game. It seems like the majority of the game will be just running around and shooting cloned zombies. I think the game might be a little TOO easy on Normal mode. I was surrounded by at least 10 zombies, getting slapped and scratched, and it took at least 15 seconds to get down to half health. I’ll probably still buy the game though. Go download the demo.

Sure, this clip isn’t as exciting as the opening cinematic, or some of the trailers we’ve seen, but still, it’s worth a look. If you’re like me, and grateful for every morsel of Left 4 Dead goodness you get to witness, you’ll be satisfied. The game comes out next week, get ready.

This might just be the most entertaining video you watch all week, maybe longer. This is the opening cinematic from Left 4 Dead, a run & gun, apocalyptic zombie shooter. If you weren’t looking forward to this game before watching this, you better damn well be now. Get infected on November 18th.

Man, oh man, I cannot wait to get this game. I just wanna blow some zombie heads off. What could be more fun? You and three friends, all stranded in a dead world of zombies, shooting your way to survival. Yes please! November 18th, pick this game up! Then on the 19th, get ready for the new Xbox 360 dashboard.

This trailer delivers, kicks you in the nuts, then delivers some more. That’s how awesome it is. I am so excited about this movie. Who’s with me? For the first time since Resident Evil 2, on the Playstation 1, Leon and Claire are back together. It’s been almost 11 years since we got to take this duo and destroy zombies, 7 years in the movie. I’m betting this movie will be better than all 3 live action movies combined.
