In case you haven’t heard, Microsoft is unveiling the next Xbox today (at 10 AM Pacific / 1 PM Eastern) and the Internet is abuzz with rumors about the console. Will it be dubbed the Xbox Infinity, or just Xbox? Will those scary rumors of a required constant Internet connection be confirmed, or were they just that, rumors? What will Microsoft do to squash their competition? Supposedly, the console’s big reveal will bring with it a slew of big exclusives — will that include the long-teased Alan Wake 2? I sure hope so.

So many questions, and really no answers. Yet. With only a few hours left to wait, what would you like to see from the next Xbox?

The long rumored but never confirmed follow-up to the Xbox 360, code named the “Durango”, has just been made official. The console and “Kinect 2.0″ will be unveiled at Microsoft’s Redmond campus on May 21. Hopefully it won’t require an always on Internet connection.

I already know what games I’d like to play on it — what would you like to see from the console?

Last year saw the release of three new games in Capcom’s Resident Evil franchise, but where Resident Evil 6 and Operation Raccoon City received lukewarm reviews, Revelations garnered almost unanimous critical acclaim. I’m still bummed I never had the chance to play it when the game released for the Nintendo 3DS back in February, so I’m looking forward to it, assuming this all proves true. Capcom hasn’t confirmed or denied anything, but bringing Revelations (most likely digitally) to the Xbox 360 and possibly the PS3 as well, seems like a swell idea to me. What about you — is this something you would be interested in?

Linkin Park Release Video For “Castle Of Glass”

Linkin Park has teamed up with Medal Of Honor Warfighter to bring you a music video for “Castle Of Glass”, which comes off their latest album Living Things (review). The video splices imagery of a family that has just learned that their soldier husband/father has died with band performance as well as images from the upcoming video game (out Oct. 23rd). You can watch the video below.

Personally, I think the video is too stylized and uses way too much slow-motion. “Castle Of Glass” is a faster paced song and using all that slo-mo drags down the energy of the song. What do you think? READ MORE

iamaliveteaser Listen To The Theme For The Upcoming XBLA/PSN Game I Am Alive

Coming March 7th, 2012 on XBLA and PSN is Ubisoft’s action/survival horror game I Am Alive. Everyone I’ve spoken to regarding the game simply cannot wait to give it a shot (I’m included in that category), so any news just stokes the fire and gets us even more pumped up.

So, with that, below you can hear the theme to the game, which is composed by Jeff Broadbent (Transformers: Dark Of The Moon). Check out Dead Pixels coverage of I Am Alive here.

Nightmare Creatures was one of the first horror games I ever played way back on the original PlayStation. When I was sick of getting my ass kicked in Battle Toads (seriously, that game was tough) I’d take a break and pop in the game for a little monster slaying action. Sadly, I never finished the second game but that certainly didn’t keep me from getting incredibly psyched for Nightmare Creatures III. In fact, I enjoyed the series so much I included it on our list of the 17 horror games that need to see the light of day. Alas, it’s six months later and no developer has yet to hear my cries.

1 Concept Art from the Long Dead Nightmare Creatures III Exhumed

But now I can at least get a glimpse of what the game could’ve looked like, with this handful of delicious concept art from artist Arthur Hugot’s online portfolio. They’re incredibly cool and the enemy designs are even a little reminiscent of the torchered creatures from The Suffering series (which also deserves another sequel!). Head past the break for a look at what could’ve been. READ MORE
