Lance Henriksen reprises 'Bishop' role in Aliens vs. Predator
Lance Henriksen, who was most memorably cleaved asunder as android (ahem, "artificial lifeform") Bishop, will see another continuation of his Aliens film role in Rebellion's Alien vs. Predator game. Henriksen plays Karl Bishop Weyland, the descendant of Weyland-Yutani corporation founder Charles ...
Interstellar Marines still exists, has actual landsharks
So here's the thing: When you cross sharks with marines, things get hilarious and, ya know, kind of bloody. It gets even weirder when the title in question is a relic from 2006 -- a game we've only seen in trailers for three years now! -- named Interstellar Marines. All joking aside, the game looks ...
FF7's Cloud spotted in BSG spin-off, Caprica

Battlestar Galactica: The Complete Series coming to Blu-ray this year
The hit Sci-Fi (er, SyFy) series, Battlestar Galactica, is finally coming to Blu-ray. The show made a brief appearance on the now-defunct HD DVD format, but Blu-ray fans have been left in the cold for quite some time. Online retailer amazon.com recently started taking pre-orders on the box set, ...

Capcom informs of Spyborgs overhaul, already thinking about sequel
While lobbying questions about Spyborgs and, uh, Zack & Wiki 2 (oh how we wish it wasn't such a pipe dream), Capcom's Corporate Officer/VP of Strategic Planning & Business Development, Christian Svensson, kind of explained why the game was missing from E3. You see, Capcom is "refining it ...
E308: The Conduit, for your inner graphics whore
Look what we found while browsing GameTrailers for the best part of half an hour and being exposed to that awful yoof-oriented Extra Fusion gum advert far too many times: moar Conduit. This footage was snapped on the E3 showfloor yesterday, and features a High Voltage developer (it's not ...
Report: Infinity Ward 'definitely' working on sci-fi shooter
When Infinity Ward recently re-negotiated its contract with Activision, hints of a new IP were floated about. Now comes word from Xbox World 360 magazine (via CVG) that the Call of Duty 1, 2 and 4 developer is "definitely" working on a new sci-fi shooter. Although it's hard to imagine the COD ...
Spyborgs not sneaking in to E3 this year
