Game Informer

New IPs are somewhat of a rarity these days but one game that did catch on amongst gamers quite well was THQ’s Darksiders.  When Darksiders came out last year the game didn’t exactly make a huge splash on the retail charts, but the mix of fast and skillful combat combined with a Zelda like exploration element made Darksiders more than a simple God of War clone.  With some stunning designs by Vigil Games founder and comic book artist Joe Madureira, Darksiders offered a nice mix of originality and overall post-apocalyptic fun that wasn’t really seen before.

After we had yet another classic Sony leak at the hands of SCEE, we’re finally getting our first proper reveal of Resistance 3 sooner than expected.  As expected, Game Informer magazine will give us the low down on the game via their next issue, which is expected to hit newsstands and subscribers in a mere matter of days.

To some it was a massive disappointment that we didn’t any new info on Batman: Arkham Asylum 2 at E3 or at the San Diego Comic Con.  Aside from the Spike VGA reveal and a few character reveals via voice actors, and some interesting domain registrations, we’ve haven’t gotten a peep as to the next adventure of the Dark Knight.

Game Informer has yet another world exclusive for us and this time its Bulletstorm, the new action game from Epic Games’ recently acquired developer People Can Fly. 

Looking at the GI cover it may be a bit hard to initially get hyped for Bulletstorm as it’s yet another fps game.  In fact let’s go down the list of fps standard elements Bulletstorm does:

1. Bulletstorm follows Grayson Hunt, the former leader of a Spec-Ops group named Black Echo.
