"In late August, the NextGen Player crew visited the Xbox X'08 Canada event to get sneak previews of some of the top titles expected to hit the Xbox 360 this fall. It was a really awesome event as many eagerly anticipated titles including Gears of War 2, Rockband 2, Fable II, and Too Human available for play. There were so many games on display it was damn near impossible to play them all.
While I was there, I managed to snag some photos. I think you'll enjoy them, so I uploaded the photos to Flickr and organized them in an album."

Saad from eXputer: "Resident Evil 5 is a steam pot of controversy for some who claim that it can't be remade; here's why that is a flawed take."
for me this game cannot be remade as is because it wasnt very good but with the right team and quality control maybe a remake can make it better.
It’s like the original reveal where journalists made something out of nothing
“Oh it’s racist”
Why? Because Chris Redfield is shooting infected villagers in Africa. No one bats an eyelid when Leon was blasting and blowing up Spaniards in RE4 so I never got what the deal was.
I just found it funny after the whole racism complaints the game suddenly changed from the original ideas to what we got. Look up RE4.5 and you’ll see it was very different. Sheva was originally an NPC like Josh’s role in the final version and then suddenly she’s a main playable character where the game has co-op. It always came across like it was added to hush up criticism thanks to the controversy.
What's hilarious is if they change the setting to not africa and sheva isn't in it they will still call racism and whitewashing.
It’s a non-problem. Game takes place in Africa, f*cking Google people that live in Africa. You have 2 black characters working with a main character that’s white from the IP since the first installment.
Who the f*ck complained about Leon shooting Spaniards in Spain? Why is it that if black people are in the equation when the location takes place in their native country that it’s problematic?
What, are we supposed to pretend Africans don’t live in Africa? But it’s ok to shoot whitey and brown people of other ethnicities all day long? Give me a break with this sh*t.
Vampire games are making a comeback of late, and gamers hoping this is a new trend should look back at the 7 best vampire games ever made.
What is a list? A miserable little pile of scribbles.
A Best Vampire Game list and no Bloodborne. A bold choice, indeed.
No Blood Omen? Even today it's one of my favourite vampire games. We could really do with a release on modern platforms.
I really enjoyed Vampyr. The combat is a little clunky and could use some work. However, the story, characters, dialog. setting, and pretty much everything else in the game is great.
