Dead Space: The Survival Horror Shooter Game with a Cooperative Twist

Dead Space is back with a new twist – drop-in, drop-out cooperative play. However, the E3 demo played more like Gears of War, which was a concern for some fans who prefer the slow-paced horror gameplay. Hopefully, the demo is not fully representative of the final product.

Lost Planet: A Radical Reinvention of the Wintry Shooter

Capcom’s Lost Planet has been reinvented with a focus on the main character’s feelings as he sends video messages to his wife. The gameplay involves stomping around a mostly abandoned planet on foot and inside a giant mechanized rig, which is used to attack a giant enemy crab for massive damage.

The Unfinished Swan: A Nove Indie Game with a Sense of Wonder and Discovery

The Unfinished Swan is an indie game for PlayStation 3 that uses first-person shooter mechanics to accomplish something very unique. The world is entirely colored white, and players must shoot globs of black paint to color in the world and reveal where to go. The game has a sense of wonder and discovery that is truly amazing.

Sleeping Dogs: An Open City Game Set in Hong Kong

Set in Hong Kong, Sleeping Dogs is an open city game where players take on the role of an undercover cop embedded in an organized crime syndicate. The game features a variety of activities, including racing stolen cars, martial arts fist fights, and even karaoke. The E3 demo was addictive, and players are eagerly awaiting the release of the full game.

Dishonored: A First-Person Bioshock Meets Assassin’s Creed Game

Dishonored is set in a retro-futuristic steampunk world, where players can augment themselves with supernatural powers. The game is open-ended, allowing players to either sneak through using stealth or go in guns blazing and kill everything in sight. The game encourages players to be smart and figure out non-lethal ways to neutralize enemies.
