Overlord XBox360 Screens & Official info

 

 

Codemasters today announces an original next-generation title with the signing of Overlord from developer Triumph Studios, whose pedigree includes the award-winning strategy series Age of Wonders.

 

Overlord is a groundbreaking action adventure, set in a seriously warped fantasy world. Scheduled for a summer 2007 release, Overlord will launch for PC and as a console exclusive for the Xbox 360™ video game and entertainment system from Microsoft.

 

Controlling a mysterious figure that has inherited the legacy of the evil, long-dead Overlord, the player emerges, near death, from the ruins of the old Overlordʼs Dark Tower. Only the playerʼs actions will determine if they will rise to become the new all-powerful Overlord; itʼs all down to how much of a bad ass they want to be in order to succeed… evil or really evil! Played out with plenty of black humour and dark irony, the game will immerse players in twisted parodies of classic fantasy scenarios and characters.

 

Overlordʼs key innovation is the introduction of an array of impish creatures – the Minions. They believe you are the old Overlord reborn and will use their unique skills to fetch, fight and die for you. Throughout the game players will actively control a horde of these gremlin-like critters and theyʼll follow your every instruction no matter how despotic or, for the Minions, life threatening it is.

 

Says Lennart Sas, Director at Triumph Studios:

“Overlord offers a wealth of freedom and allows players to experience classic fantasy like never before. Working with the minions, players can loot and pillage their way through the gameʼs world or maybe resist the temptations of evil. In Overlord, player choices truly shape the world.”

 

Says Barry Jafrato, Senior VP of Brand for Codemasters:

“Overlord comes loaded with innovative and compelling game mechanics wrapped in a scenario thatʼs played out with plenty of black humour. Weʼre delighted to be working with Triumph on the title, bringing something fresh and original to next-generation gamers.”

 

With more details on this unique gaming property to be revealed through the course of its development, Codemasters will publish Overlord for Xbox 360 and PC in summer 2007.

Too Human Beta Gameplay Footage

 

ByteSector has somehow gotten their hands on some shakycam footage of Too Human in action. Keep in mind this footage is from an early beta build, but the game certainly does look impressive (what little we can see of it). (Thanks, Optaviusx)

δεν πειραζει daredevil.

για ανταμοιβη, παρε μια συνεντευξη του μεγαλου προγραμματισταρα John Carmack

 

βασικα η συνεντευξη ειναι για το quake wars, αλλα η τελευταια ερωτηση ειναι πιο γενικη..και ο carmack δεν χανει την ευκαιρια να πει ποσο καλα περναει με το 360.

Q17:

Is there anything else that youʼd like to add?

 

John Carmack:

Itʼs still very exciting the capabilities that are continuously being added to our arsenal here.

I am having a really good time working on the Xbox 360 right now, graphic technology-wise.

 

As for the MegaTexture stuff, it is kind of funny that itʼs not super demanding of the hardware.

As I mentioned, I was kind of surprised that something like this hadnʼt been pushed before we got around to it.

There are lots more exciting possibilities for the graphics research and weʼre still toying around with some fairly fundamental architectural design issues on the Xbox 360.

9 New Call of Duty Maps out soon!

 

May 2, 2006 - As part of Microsoft's "E3 Bringing It Home" campaign and to extend the life of its already number one selling first-person shooter on Xbox 360, Activision today announced plans to offer nine new multiplayer maps on Xbox Live.

 

Four maps will be ready on May 10, the first day of the 2006 Electronic Entertainment Exposition (E3 runs from May 10 - May 12), and five more are prepped for July 2006. Two of the first four maps are free: The Bonus Map Pack features Vossenack and Wallendar, Germany. The Skirmish Map Pack includes a Kalach, Russia map and a Beaumont-Hague, France map and costs 400 Microsoft points.

 

The five maps slated for July are part of Activision's Invasion Pack, worth 900 Microsoft points. This pack features:

 

* Antoville, France (Crossroads)

* St. Louet, France (Newvillers)

* Amaye sur Seulles, France (Normandy)

* Alam Halfa, Egypt (Decoytown)

* Rostov, Russia (Harbor)

 

Microsoft's "E3 Bringing It Home" campaign offers Xbox 360 owners free Xbox Live Gold memberships for the week of E3. During the annual convention, participating gamers will be given a "virtual ticket" to the E3 show floor, given access to exclusive Microsoft news, video, and downloadable content.

 

"Fans have made Call of Duty 2 the best-selling next-gen title and these maps are a great way to expand upon the hallmark epic scope and cinematic intensity that they've come to expect from the franchise," said Grant Collier, president of Infinity Ward. "What better way to get the action to gamers than to release the first of the maps directly to them at E3!"

 

IGN will have hands-on play time for several of these maps prior to E3. Keep an eye out for our impressions!

 

7 maps for 1300 points

 

4 maps May 10th (2 free)-400 mspoints

 

5 maps July - 900 mspoints.

The Chinese-language Apple Daily reports that Wistron aims to ship 5-6 million Xbox 360 game consoles in 2006. Company chairman Simon Lin, however, stressed that Wistron currently has no capacity expansion plan for game console assembly.

In related news, Wistron reported a first quarter earnings per share (EPS) of NT$0.4, according to a Chinese-language Central News Agency (CAN) report.
