New Tomb Raider????




Hell YES! There are some leaks that Eidos is working on the next action adventure packed game with lovely Ms Lara Croft. Lara is supposed to get a make over and game suppose to move toward horror survival category which is SOOOO SWEEEET!
Unofficial Story:
"UNOFFICIAL STORY
When a sudden storm destroys her research vessel, a young and inexperienced Lara Croft finds herself stranded on a mysterious and remote island hidden off the shores of Japan. Despite several signs of various inhabitants the island is oddly deserted, and an uneasy feeling settles in as strange sounds emerge from the shadows.

With only her determination, inner strength, and resourcefulness to help her, Lara must overcome the challenges of a harsh and unforgiving journey that will take her across a vast island wilderness and deep into the claustrophobic and menacing underground tombs from the island's past.

As she struggles to prevail through brutal combat encounters and treacherous exploration, Lara will be pushed to her limits and forced to adapt to her situation in order to survive and escape from the lethal predators that stalk her every move."

Stay Alive


Aren't you glad Thanksgiving is over? well, I am. Too much food, too much boring conversations, too much family ... :)
Over the long weekend I watched "Stay Alive". it's not a new movie but for some reason i haven't had a chance to watch it when it first came out in 2006. the movie is about the game - Stay Alive where players visit creepy house with creepy surroundings (who has cemetery in the backyard? :D) where evil countess Elizabeth Bathory used to live. the players, well, have to stay alive, if they die in the game they die in the real live.
i really liked how the game looked, the graphics, level of creepiness, you almost thought it was too good looking. the movie had it's scary moments, especially at the beginning. those who played horror/ survival games know how freaked and jumpy you can get while playing the game. storyline was ok but they could go deeper with the creation of the game - they answered the question why but not who. but at the end i think the movie is worth watching.

X-Blades


Might this be my new favorite game with female character?
yesterday I played demo on my Xbox360 and i liked it so much that i right away bought the game online. once i have the whole game i can tell more but so far...
main character is Ayumi. Ayumi like Lara Croft is an adventurer which collects artifact. but the similarities do not end there. game locations are similar in both - ancient ruins. game is also 3rd person shooter. both ladies fight with pistols (Ayumi actually with sword/pistols), both are hot:), and they both have bad girl attitude. Similarities end there. Ayumi is blonde and wears much less clothes than Lara. I guess that was especially done to draw male players. Ayumi besides regular weapons has also power to perform certain spells like earthquace and shooting fireball which looks quite spectacular. the whole game is very dynamic and has nice visuals. controlling Ayumi is very easy.
I was really stunned to see that the game got such a low reviewes but my today's opinion is based on demo so we will see if it changes...
