<a href="http://sticktwiddlers.com">StickTwiddlers</a></p>]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A post over on <a href="http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/tqa9z/horror_game_concept_based_on_your_own_fears/" target="_blank">Reddit</a> has put a spotlight on a concept video for a survival horror game with a difference. This difference being that the game adapts to the players personal fears.</p>
<p><center><iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/wmMXXC_TdU0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></center></p>
<p>The video, created with Unity 3D and Adobe After Effects, is titled <strong>Sound Of Silence</strong>, shows that the game observes player actions such as the routes they choose, strategies they choose and answers to specific questions in order to make the game as personally terrifying as possible.</p>
<p><a href="http://sticktwiddlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/soundofsilence_house.png" rel="lightbox[34931]"><img src="http://sticktwiddlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/soundofsilence_house-550x343.png" alt="" title="soundofsilence_house" width="550" height="343" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-34940" /></a></p>
<p>The example in the video is based around a player that has an intense fear of darkness and loneliness and as such, places the player in a dark environment on their own with no explanation given in order for the user to react naturally to the situation. The dynamic nature of the game would deliver a unique experience to each player.</p>
<p>Since the video came into the spotlight, the creator, Michael Chiniquy, has been inundated with emails from prospective programmers to help make this concept a reality. The creator has stated that he wishes to put a focus on puzzles, exploration, and &#8216;the occassional panic attack&#8217; instead of a combat heavy scenario.</p>
<p><a href="http://sticktwiddlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/soundofsilence_fear.png" rel="lightbox[34931]"><img src="http://sticktwiddlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/soundofsilence_fear-550x343.png" alt="" title="soundofsilence_fear" width="550" height="343" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-34939" /></a></p>
<p>With survival horror titles becoming less scary and a lot more combat intensive over the past few years, this title is sure to be a welcome addition to the genre and we&#8217;re sure it would prove massively popular amongst fans of the genre.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Fans have been asking when <strong>Serious Sam</strong> will return to Xbox and <strong>Croteam</strong> have answered. <strong>Serious Sam 3: BFE</strong> and <strong>Serious Sam Double D XXL</strong> will both be coming to Xbox Live in Autumn 2012.</p>
<p><a href="http://sticktwiddlers.com/2012/05/17/serious-sam-comes-back-to-xbla/serioussam3/" rel="attachment wp-att-34898"><img src="http://sticktwiddlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/SeriousSam3-550x279.jpg" alt="" title="SeriousSam3" width="550" height="279" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-34898" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Serious Sam 3</strong> will take full advantage of the online capabilities of Xbox Live while delivering all the brutal, frantic action that <strong>Serious Sam</strong> players are used to. </p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Serious Sam fans have been asking for Serious Sam 3: BFE to come to Xbox LIVE Arcade and we’re very excited to launch on the platform this fall,&#8221;</strong> said Roman Ribaric, CEO of developer <strong>Croteam</strong>. <strong>&#8220;All the high-octane action and over-the-top violence will be intact so Xbox LIVE Arcade gamers will get the full Serious Sam 3: BFE experience!&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://sticktwiddlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/serious-sam-3-bfe-14d6fcd6811d21.jpg" rel="lightbox[34862]"><img src="http://sticktwiddlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/serious-sam-3-bfe-14d6fcd6811d21.jpg" alt="" title="serious-sam-3-bfe-14d6fcd6811d21" width="500" height="280" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6860" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Serious Sam Double D XXL</strong> was a huge hit on PC in 2011 and all the action returns for the Xbox version. The original eighteen campaign levels return, along with the twelve challenge maps. However there are all new features for Xbox, including new campaign missions, new challenges, new enemies to blast, all-new Gunstacker upgrades and that rarest of prizes, local two player co-op play!</p>
<p><a href="http://sticktwiddlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/9185Serious-Sam-Double-D_Crowd-Screen.jpg" rel="lightbox[34862]"><img src="http://sticktwiddlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/9185Serious-Sam-Double-D_Crowd-Screen.jpg" alt="" title="9185Serious Sam Double D_Crowd Screen" width="500" height="281" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6863" /></a></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Xbox LIVE Arcade gamers are going to get so much insane Serious Sam action this summer it’s going to make their televisions bleed,&#8221;</strong> claimed Fork Parker, CFO of <strong>Devolver Digital</strong>, co-publisher of <strong>Serious Sam 3: BFE</strong> and <strong>Serious Sam Double D XXL</strong>.</p>
<p><em><strong>Serious Sam 3: BFE</strong> and <strong>Serious Sam Double D XXL</strong> are coming to Xbox Live Arcade in Autumn 2012.</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Haemimont Games</strong>, the developers behind classic strategy titles such as <strong>Tropico 3</strong> and <strong>Tropico 4</strong> have announced that their latest simulation game with a twist, <strong>Omerta &#8211; City of Gangsters</strong>, will be arriving on the Xbox 360 as well as PC this Autumn.</p>
<p><center><iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/lNFzFV4YqK4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></center></p>
<p>Whilst the games narrative is nothing new to the mobster genre, putting players in the shoes of a fresh-off-the-boat immigrant with big dreams to climb the criminal hierarchy, the mix of strategy simulation and turn-based combat is a fresh addition as players work towards the ultimate goal of creating a criminal empire big enough to take over the city.</p>
<p><a href="http://sticktwiddlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/omerta1.jpg" rel="lightbox[34904]"><img src="http://sticktwiddlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/omerta1-550x343.jpg" alt="" title="omerta1" width="550" height="343" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-34908" /></a></p>
<p>The game is set in 1920&#8242;s Atlantic City, where players will spend their time constructing, buying or taking over buildings to turn them into speakeasies, distilleries, illegal boxing rings and much more, as they work to generate income. These businesses are managed in real time, much like your henchman who you can send out on missions ranging from assassinating an informant, to raiding a warehouse, springing a friend from prison, robbing a bank or attacking a rival gang’s hideout</p>
<p>On the flip-side, you&#8217;ll carry out jobs, such as heists, that will result in turn-based tactical gunfights. Cover and stealth are said to be essential parts of any shootout in the game and finding the best vantage point to gun down an enemy, while taking cover from a hailstorm of bullets, can be just as satisfying as sneaking quietly behind a foe and taking him down.</p>
<p><a href="http://sticktwiddlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/omerta2.jpg" rel="lightbox[34904]"><img src="http://sticktwiddlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/omerta2-550x343.jpg" alt="" title="omerta2" width="550" height="343" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-34909" /></a></p>
<p>From what we&#8217;ve heard, <strong>Omerta City Of Gangsters</strong> seems very reminiscent of <strong>The Godfather II</strong>, also released on the Xbox 360, which had players recruit a gang and climb the ranks as you took over businesses and defended your territory. <strong>Haemimont Games</strong> look to have put their wealth of strategy game knowledge to use here however and have made a title focussed on the creation and complimenting with the combat.</p>
<p><em><strong>Omerta City Of Gangsters</strong> will be released this Autumn for X360 and PC.</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A now removed job advertisement on LinkedIn has revealed that <strong>Fable</strong> developers, <strong>Lionhead</strong> are currently recruiting for a new MMO IP for the next Xbox console from <strong>Microsoft</strong>.</p>
<p><a href="http://sticktwiddlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/lionheadlogo.png" rel="lightbox[34889]"><img src="http://sticktwiddlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/lionheadlogo-550x236.png" alt="" title="lionheadlogo" width="550" height="236" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-34891" /></a></p>
<p>The advertisment offerered an <strong>&#8220;opportunity to work on MMO like title for next generation consoles&#8221;</strong>, said to be a brand new AAA IP. The game is said to be RPG based with <strong>&#8220;a radical new take on how co-operative and multiplayer gameplay feeds into the experience, while blending online and single-player into one complete experience.&#8221; </strong></p>
<p>The new IP is to feature single-player and multiplayer with four-player co-op being a real focus, the listing looking for an applicant ideally with previous experience in the field, and is said to have a team of over 150 people working on it.</p>
<p><a href="http://sticktwiddlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/fable.png" rel="lightbox[34889]"><img src="http://sticktwiddlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/fable-550x236.png" alt="" title="fable" width="550" height="236" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-28132" /></a></p>
<p>When <a href="http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-05-16-lionhead-making-mmo-like-new-ip-for-next-xbox-report" target="_blank">Eurogamer</a> contacted the developers for a comment on the listing, they replied that <strong>&#8220;Lionhead is in the business of making great games. We regularly look to hire great individuals to help in this cause. We have no further details to share at this time.&#8221; </strong></p>
<p>With <strong>Lionhead</strong> co-founder Peter Molyneux <a href="http://sticktwiddlers.com/2012/03/07/peter-molyneux-leaves-lionhead-studios/" target="_blank">leaving the company</a> earlier this year to set up a new developer, it&#8217;s certainly going to be interesting and exciting to see what the team have to offer.</p>
<p><em>Lionhead&#8217;s latest offering, <strong>Fable Heroes</strong> is out now for X360.</em></p>
