Hellion shows off a bunch of in game shots.  Looks very pretty, in a manly, gaming kind of way.

I've been following Hellion's development for a little while now. I'm much more interested in this game then I was in Dante's Inferno. This is shaping up to be more of an experience and less of a God of War clone. I like that.

Sid Meier’s Civ V to hit the shelves this fall for PC gamers.  There goes my winter.

I have and always will have a soft spot in my heart for all of Sid's Civ games. Starting with number I I have probably logged a good thousand hours on various Civ franchises and enjoyed every hour. Now there's a new Civilization on the horizon - Civ V! Yes, built on a new engine from 'the ground up' as is standard practice when creating new versions of the game. Looks pretty sharp too. Here are some facts and screen shots. Also in the works - Civ Network, a Civ based game for . . . Facebook? Woah.

Mount & Blade Warband – Interview video with Armagan Yavuz, lead developer

Mount & Blade was a game that was first brought to my attention a few years ago when it was just a beta, looking for some love. It took me a while but I finally got around to playing it and now I'm kicking myself for not picking it up much earlier. I've had it now for just over a year and it's one of two or three games I consistently return to when I've finished with The Next Big Thing.

EA brings Hell to the superbowl.  Also makes a nice montage video.

Looks like EA is ready for some football. They've purchased a spot during the Superbowl to highlight their newest franchise - Dante's Inferno. Over the weekend they also dropped this nice (up to 720p) video montage of what hell may be like if you carry a fantastically large penis scythe.

Green Man Games to allow you to resell your digital game downloads?

"Green Man Gaming today revealed a new digital games retail platform that monetises the digital pre-owned market." That is straight from their very limited press release and roughly translates into "We'll give you cash or cash-equivalent for your legally downloaded games." Uh. . . wow? That's a new twist on the used game market for sure and could mean I can finally get rid of my older Steam catalog, right?

EA and Del Ray and Dante team up to go to Hell

In what I can only describe as a slight blow to literature everywhere but an interesting opportunity for literate gamers, Dante’s Inferno is being republished.  In book form.  By Electronic Arts.  Oh, with Del Ray (ne Ballantine ne Random House) doing the bulk of the dead tree work. Don’t worry though, the fine folks who brought [...]

Tron: Evolution screenshots and video of the newest Tron based video game

Here are the first few screens and a trailer video from Disney's up and coming Tron movie based video game. Tron: Evolution. Looks neat but I don't know if it would ever replace the stand-up console Tron game I played back in the 80's. At least for nostalgia.
