Resident Evil VII – Capcom Reveals a Chilling New Trailer + An Update to the Beginning Hour Demo

With Tokyo Game Show commencing today, Capcom’s got a full range of new horrors on display. Starting with another trailer (which you can peep below), “TAPE-2″ shows a host of new environments, some less dilapidated than others, and a creepy ass family sit down with the Baker clan. The footage isn’t all force-feeding and games, though, as we’re treated to our first glimpse at the game’s first-person combat. The trailer proves this drastic departure isn’t entirely abandoning its gun-centric roots.

Additionally, the game’s planned $79.99 Deluxe Edition, which includes a season pass covering two playable episodes is now tossing in a third episode, upping the version’s price to $89.99. If you already pre-ordered the PSN digital edition, you’re covered; no extra cost will be incurred. What’s in the three episodes? No clue. Though it’s probably a safe bet to assume we’ll be playing through more “tapes” like the one found in the demo.

Speaking of the demo, the PS Plus exclusive is not only being made available to all PS4 owners tomorrow, it’s getting an update. The “Twilight” version of the demo will allow players to explore previously inaccessible parts of the Baker mansion. If there isn’t a way to use that goddamn dummy finger, expect to see several Twitch streams of people fucking exploding.

It’s Call of Duty. In Space.

(A David Bowie Cover Helps Illustrate the Point)

I know posting about Call of Duty on Tumblr ignites as much interest as West Winggifsets but let’s give this trailer some credit – they dared not move the series into space without referencing David Bowie pretty hard. Of course, it’s a mere “Let’s Add Electric Guitars!” cover of “Space Oddity” that could’ve been done by...

Mad Max: This Trailer for a Game is Also a Game

Here’s a clever little oddity the marketing team at WB Games cobbled together. It’s one thing to show us a trailer demonstrating the multiple choices you can make in your game; it’s another meta beast to turn the trailer itself into a multiple choice game.

Above, you get to choose your own (mad) adventure to the payoff of vehicular carnage – Australian...
