OXM Takes A Look At Operation Raccoon City, Now You Can Too

Published

2011 seems like ages ago, its memory undoubtedly faded by heavy drinking over New Years. One of the many, many games that are preparing to come out in what could very possibly be a fantastic year for horror is Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City. Last year started with a bang, giving us Dead Space 2, and this year is looking equally as great with two Resident Evil games coming out in the first quarter of the year.

Next month the 3DS will get Resident Evil: Revelations (Feb 7), with Operation Raccoon City releasing the following month on March 20. Head past the break for more details! OXM had the opportunity to chat with Mike Jones, a Producer at Capcom, about the upcoming game in their bi-weekly OXM Report video series that appears on Xbox Live.

If you’ve been keeping up with the Operation Raccoon City news, you’ll probably pretty familiar with much of what’s shown in the video, but with the game only a few months away it’s nice to see how it’s all shaping up so close to release. Cox dives into the six playable characters on the Umbrella Security Squad, the various ways you can dispatch the undead and BOWs that come your way, and how your decisions will affect the Resident Evil timeline.

You can watch the video on your Xbox dashboard, or if that sounds like too much work, you can head on over to OXM Online to check it out!

‘Alien Hunt’ – It’s an ‘Alien’ and ‘Predator’ Mockbuster Rolled into One! [Trailer]

Published

While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.

This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.

You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!

In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?

“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.

“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”

Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
