New Lord of the Rings RPG On The Way?

With the success of Dragon Age: Origins, it looks like Warner Bros. Interactive Games wants a slice of the fantasy rpg pie and is going to use Lord of the Rings to get it. From what little details exist, publisher Snowblind Studios (Justice League Heroes) says Lord of the Rings: War in the North will be an online, three player co-op RPG that takes place in parts unseen in the movie. Players will interact with key LotR characters from the movies as they forge their own destiny in the War of the R...

Trailer For The Long Awaited Alan Wake Hits…

Microsoft’s answer to Sony’s Uncharted franchise looks like it will finally see the light of day… which is good for a game that uses light as a weapon. As cinematic as any game I’ve seen, Alan Wake puts you in the titles character’s shoe as he struggles with a waking nightmare in which light becomes your main weapon. The Sony commercial about how much like a movie Uncharted is seems to have influenced Alan Wake. Wake is a writer who moves to a small town with his wife to relax and is thrown into...

HALO Reach Trailer Sets Fall 2010 Release Date

Wow. I have a feeling that HALO Wars and HALO: ODST were just a public stopgaps to keep us wanting more HALO until Bungie could finish with this. ODST had a really great story and concept, but it was still primarily based on the HALO 3 engine. Now after whetting our appetites for more HALO and a history of the Spartans with the Fall of Reach novel; Microsoft and Bungie are dropping the next game in the franchise this Fall. I bought the first three HALO games, but only rented/borrowed HALO Wars a...

Does Spielberg Want to Produce a HALO Movie?

I don’t know how much of this story is true, but IESB.com is reporting that Steven Spielberg is hot for a script written by Stuart Beattie (G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra & PotC 3). Apparently, Beattie wrote a script back in 2008 titled HALO: The Fall of Reach. Though the rights have reverted back to Microsoft after the Universal debacle; Microsoft would still like a HALO movie to get made before the franchise dies. The Spielberg aspect of this scares me a bit - like George Lucas in recent year...
