Red Steel

I was just reading Penny Arcade (funny, yet unsettling today) and I saw that Tycho had made a reference to the new Ubisoft project for the Revolution code-named(?) "Red Steel." I had seen the released cover for the May issue of Game Informer on digg a few days back, but I hadn't seen any of the screenshots from the article.

Incidently, the Joystiq article linked from Penny Arcade has removed the images at the behest of Game Informer. But you can still find them if you look.

First-person Shooters seem like a gimme for a game designer looking for a way to utilize the Revolution's controller. I'm more excited about the potential for new ways of playing games, rather than any gameplay that's about as interactive as a cat and a laser-pointer.

But I was really impressed by the graphics in the few images that I found, doctored or not. It makes me even more interested to see what will be revealed next month at E3.

Oh! That'll have to do it for now. It's time for Prison Break. And then 24 @ 9pm. That's just 2 hours of great TV... And makes me hate FOX slightly less for cancelling Arrested Development.
