Gears story expanded with prequel

Fans of stunning third-person gore fest Gears of War now have an excuse to put down their pads - a prequel novel is coming out this year.

 

Spotted by eagle-eyed Gaffers, Gears Of War Pendulum Wars The Battle Of Aspho Fields, slated by book publisher Chapters for an August 26 2008 release, is the "first official prequel to the blockbuster new Xbox 360 game Gears of War" and "builds upon the characters back stories and gives eager fans their first in-depth look at some of the past events that shaped the games world".

 

That's great news, especially considering the plot-hole heavy story in Gears of War left us scratching our heads on more than one occasion. What we do know however is that Marcus Fenix, Gears´ meat headed star, fought in the Battle of Aspho Fields, which has become a legendary scrap at least in the game lore. In an early chopper scene in the game starry-eyed Cog Carmine asks Marcus: "Hey! Are you the Marcus Fenix, the one who fought at Aspho Fields?" Marcus: Yep. Carmine: Wow! Cool! Marcus: Not really..."

 

The book will weigh in at a meaty 352 pages, is published by Random House and will, we imagine, not come with an online cooperative game play mode. It is however written by US writer Steven L. Kent, ex video game hack.

No "specific release date" for 360 UT

 

Epic's Mark Rein has re-confirmed that he erm, cannot confirm a solid release date for Unreal Tournament III on Xbox 360.

 

"We don't have a specific release date yet," the Epic VP told CVG, in response to magazine reports to the contrary. "Right now we're finishing up the European PS3 version."

 

A German magazine kicked off rumours this week, when it reported that the Xbox 360 version of Unreal Tournament III will be released in April and is approximately "90%" finished.

 

It was released on the PlayStation 3 last month in North America but there's still no European date and no word on how much lead Sony will have over the Xbox 360 version.

Rumor Mill: Crysis Coming to 360 in November?

 

96400.jpg

 

First off, neither Crytek nor EA have (yet) officially stated that a 360 version (or PS3 for that matter) of Crysis is being developed. In fact, the closest hint to such a merger weʼve been alluded to was given here. Either way, I think it would be presumptuous to pass off CryENGINE2 as being PC only. Iʼd almost bet that Crytek is diligently working (as we speak) at getting some form of the engine working on the 360 and PS3 (Crysis isnʼt going to be the only game using the engine). Only time will tell if we will ever see Crysis making it onto the consoles. So until then, we speculate.

 

With that said, itʼs all fun and games to speculate such things. Which is why one forum goer over at the inCrysis forums decided to share a recent find with the Crysis community there. It seems an electronic store (link here) over in Austria has among its various listings (which I preserved above) of Crysis for PC a couple of listings of Crysis for the Xbox 360. The most interesting detail to note here is the release date given for those: November 20, 2008. I canʼt say Iʼve ever heard of this particular online retailer much less any clue to their reputation. If itʼs truly a leak of some kind, then itʼs one that deserves some refuting.

 

Then again, November is still quite a ways off.

Metal Slug 3 comes to XBLA - Achievements officially impossible

The good news is Metal Slug 3 is this Wednesday's Xbox Live Arcade Game.

 

The bad news is the difficulty of the game's Achievements has been set to maximum pain.

 

Xboxer.tv explains why getting the full 200 Achievement points in Metal Slug 3 is "one awesome test of gaming powers."

Updates:

According to Xbox360Achievements.org's listing (via Alternative Sources below,) the achievements that would seem impossible are: "Complete all the missions without continue" (25 points), "Complete a mission without any miss" (10-40 points), and "Complete any mission, without getting power-up items" (10 points).

Φέτος δε βγήκε pes. 'Εχουμε μείνει στο pes 6 και φέτος ο Τακαναθαλασσαbass αποφάσισε να μη βγάλει νέα έκδοση γιατί το ένα και μοναδικό που περιμένουν όλοι είναι να παίζει μια χαρά στο Live και κατάφερε να το καταστρέψει. Οπότε μην αναφέρεστε σε pes 2008. Δεν υπάρχει κάτι τέτοιο και τα 70 ευρώ που ζητάει η Konami είναι απλά γιατί έχει χιούμορ.

 

ΥΓ. 'Εχω και τον Privateer να με πρήζει με το MUFA 2008 που είναι πιο αργό και από το θάνατο

Rumor Killer: No MGS4 on 360, says Konami

 

TheGameReviews.com had the opportunity to speak with Konamiʼs PR about this latest rumor, and unsurprisingly, Konami is baffled by claims that Metal Gear Solid 4 is going multiplatform. In a rush to get the word out, it seems that those who broke the story talked to everyone except Konami, who made this statement "For the record, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is a PlayStation 3 exclusive and there are no plans to develop an Xbox 360 version of the game." Nuff said..
