Official Fact Sheet:
Bringing a new dimension to stealth action games, Second Sight gives players control of a character endowed with incredible psychic abilities. The game offers multiple approaches to completing levels either via stealth, dramatic gunplay, psychic powers or a combination of all three. The ability to psychically influence characters and remotely manipulate objects and individuals provides for a totally fresh gameplay dynamic.
Second Sight opens with John Vattic, the player-controlled lead character, as he awakens from a coma in a US medical facility where he has been subjected to traumatic surgery and experimentation. He doesn’t know his name, he can’t remember his past, all he knows is that his only hope for survival is to escape and unravel the mystery that has led to his imprisonment.
Haunted by flashbacks, which are experienced as fully playable episodes within the game, and shocked by the discovery of his own psychic powers, the player takes Vattic on a search for his past and, in doing so, uncovers a fatal chain of events leading to a sinister conspiracy.
As Vattic explores his present and past, the game weaves between these two different time periods, which run through the game as a dual-narrative. The player-controlled actions of the past Vattic have consequences in the present ? allowing a unique interaction between the player and the narrative of the game as Vattic’s destiny is changed.
Vattic’s telekinetic powers enable players to shift objects and terrify on-looking guards. As the game progresses and his self-awareness increases, additional abilities develop and existing powers are refined. Basic telekinesis is upgraded beyond simply moving objects, enabling Vattic to lift enemies and smash them against the scenery as they scream for mercy! This revelation of psychic powers makes for a highly compelling journey, and invites experimentation with the newly acquired abilities.
Further psychic powers are revealed through play: Healing (using psychic power to replenish health), Projection (send your spirit out of your body, with the ability to possess another character), Charm (alter the mind of individuals, fooling them you’re not there) and Psi-blast to send a destructive shockwave toward your enemies.
Vattic’s psychic powers can be mixed with an exciting arsenal of weapons ? there are 13 weapons in use through the game including pistols and a sniper rifle.

Official Fact Sheet:
Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII is the latest installment of the historical simulation series set amidst the warring states of second century China. Near the year 184 A.D., China was reaching the end of the Han dynasty. The corruption of the Imperial Court triggered a rebellion, and civil war engulfed the land. Men and women of strong will climbed onto the stage of history. Some chose to stop the chaos, while others fulfilled their own ambitions. Together they wove the threads of a legend that came to be known as the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
In Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII, players become one of those brave souls that answered the call to arms. Ultimately, the player?s goal is the unification of China. Gamers can take on multiple roles, from the proud officer who helps his lord to a rogue general forging his own path to glory.
The series continues to evolve and bring each character vividly to life by giving players complete control of interpersonal affairs. While depicting historically significant relationships, such as the brotherhood between Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, or the bitter animosity between Ma Chao and Cao Cao, the game allows players to create new bonds between characters, with new commands such as ?Marriage? and ?Sworn Brother.?
Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII empowers gamers with the ability to play as any of the game?s 711 officers, 100 of which are original characters that can be created by the player. For the first time in the series, Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII introduces a multi-character system using all of the game?s officers. This system allows gamers the option of playing up to eight characters within a single game.
Each character possesses 26 officer skills and four basic attributes. For example, the ?Eloquence? skill is effective during negotiations, while ?Commerce? is useful when doing business with merchants. If an Officer acquires all the skills contained within a category, the Officer will learn a powerful ?Super Skill.? Furthermore, Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII features 15 new officer skills called ?tactics.? There are 6 ability levels for each tactic, from ?Beginner? to the fearsome level of ?Expert?, and the higher the level, the greater the chance of success in combat.
Another new feature is that players can begin the game at any year- from the start of The Yellow Turban Rebellion in 184 A.D. to the death of Zhuge Liang in 234 A.D. Additionally, there are four more scenarios set after 234 A.D., including one entirely fictional story featuring every officer in the game.
Previously in the series, a maximum of four forces could participate in a single battle. Now, as long as each force is part of an alliance, nearly all forces can engage in a single battle, regardless of where their power bases are situated. This allows the most prestigious officers from each force to meet each other on the same battlefield. Consequently, power and spheres of influence can change at any moment. The outcome of events will never be completely clear until the end, even if one dominant force emerges midway through the game.
The lynchpin of any historical simulation game is the battle scene. In Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII, field and siege fighting have been combined into a single process. Now the player can decide whether to gradually advance their army, bypass hostile forces, or attack an enemy fortress in one swift move. Battle sequences now require moment-to-moment decision-making. Players must carefully consider the terrain, field of view, unit types and war council advisories as the battlefield situation evolves.
Additionally, officer duels and ?ploys? form an integral part of the game. During a duel, the player can use a different ploy each turn. Depending on how these ploys are combined, it is possible to defeat a much more powerful adversary, but the reverse is also true ? defeat at the hands of an inferior opponent can also occur. Certain combinations of ploys can also trigger a ?Deadly Move,” which can instantly turn the tide of a duel.

With Ancient China as the backdrop, Romance of the Three Kingdoms IX chronicles the events of 2nd and 3rd century, when a once grand empire fell into civil war. RTK IX is vastly different from previous games in the series. Most notably, players immediately assume the rank of a Ruler. Traditionally reserved as the highest rank in the series, the role of Ruler will test your leadership, management, and strategy skills.
Combat in RTK IX takes place at a much faster pace than in previous installments. Negotiate political and military affairs at the same time, and use diplomacy while under attack or shift strategies against enemy units in the midst of combat.
Foreign tribes now play a pivotal role and can help players protect their dominion. The Wuwan, Xi Qing, Shanyue, and Nanman tribes have powerful armies, yet they refrain from expanding their own territories. Build relations with a tribe, and they may aid you in battle. Declare a war against a tribe, and they may attack.

Players can either assume the role of Rau, a heroic warrior unmatched in skill and strength, Tati, his younger, agile sister with a darker, more threatening side, or other characters, each with their own weapons, deadly combos, and unique animations. As the last of the “Rakus,” together they must scout, strategize, stealth and fight through richly detailed 3D environments, where they will discover the truth about the family’s dark secret, and the origins of the Kasai.
Rise of the Kasai presents a new and innovative approach to fighting adventure games. With the critically-acclaimed combat system, gamers can attack in stealth mode or use the best weapon available for the situation. Up to nine opponents in the player’s range can be attacked by using the right analog stick to select and assign specific or multiple buttons for lethal combos. Combined with artistically sketched movies, and a colorful cast of characters, the engaging storyline of Rise of the Kasai will immerse gamers into a world of dark magic, discovery and conflict.
Rise of the Kasai begins with Kuzo, a large black bird who is Rau’s trusted spirit guide, being informed that Rau has been killed. As the story progresses, the characters replay significant events in Rau’s destiny. Taking place both 10 years before the original game’s storyline and 10 years after, Rau joins his younger sister, Tati and the other cast of characters as they battle the Kasai through 10 dynamic levels in search of the events that led up to his death.
The main hero, Rau, and his trusted spirit guide, Kuzo, return for the sequel along with new, stylized characters, including Tati- Rau’s sister, each with their own weapons, abilities and purpose.
With all new dynamic environments, playable characters, online cooperative gameplay, weapons, storyline and more, Rise of the Kasai offers three times the gameplay of the original.
Building on the proprietary combat action that is innovative, intuitive and extremely responsive, two players will be able to team up online and defeat enemies together or play with a human or artificial intelligence (AI) controlled character for a one-of-a-kind gameplay experience.
The critically acclaimed combat system operates by sweeping the right analog stick in the direction of the enemies, enabling up to nine targets to be “locked” onto and attacked. Pressing the corresponding buttons engages an enemy (or group) attack, while combos can be used to kill swiftly and mercilessly.
While Rau is able to use Kuzo to scout unknown territory, distract enemies and retrieve items, Tati can “spirit walk” and see through the eyes of the dead. Tati also has the ability to blend seamlessly into the environment and wait undetected, furthering the strategic element of the gameplay.
Defeat enemies in a balanced mix between two different states of fighting – armed or unarmed (stealth). Rau has four weapons in his arsenal: battle axe, Taiaha (spear), broadsword and bow and arrow. Tati’s arsenal includes daggers, a deadly staff with retracting blades, an axe, a proximity-based weapon and the ability to become invisible in stealth mode.
Vibrant, intricately detailed areas with their own uniquely distinct style that build on The Mark of Kri’s award winning art direction.
Engaging storyline that takes place 10 years after The Mark of Kri immerses the player into a world of dark magic, discovery and conflict. Learn key story information through the Oracle, Kuzo, artistically sketched in-game movies and animated in-game movies.
Immersive game design requires the players to strategize as they progress from one “combative puzzle” to the next. By scouting ahead and evaluating the scenario they can then plan their best line of attack and which weapon is best suited for each situation.

Rez is a fast-action shooter that takes you deep into the world’s computer network. The “Project K” Network has recently been upgraded to handle the rapid expansion of the information age and the core, known as “Eden,” holds the most advanced artificial intelligence the world has ever seen. Unfortunately, Eden cannot handle the ability to create her own thoughts and buckles under the pressure in an existential breakdown. She is lost deep inside the system, and you’re the only one that can bring her back online, saving the world from utter chaos. You must blast complex viruses, unlock passwords, and destroy firewall bosses as you search for Eden. Each stage is in a constant state of flux dependent on your shooting techniques, which ultimately control the music and colors of your environment. The deeper you get into the dreamlike cyber world of Rez, your form will evolve or devolve depending on your progress, and the wire-frame environments give way to rich textured worlds.
Rez is an endorphin machine that releases the essence of trance through futuristic sound and visuals. Players shoot digital enemies to release the enemies frequency. These “essence sounds” are multiplied upon themselves to create rhythm, and the rhythm then changes the graphics of the game itself.

Taking control of either Claire Redfield or Steve Burnside Resident Evil Survivor 2 Code: Veronica this one player title offers two distinct gameplay modes ? Dungeon and Arcade. Both modes offer light gun support, including the G-Con 2 from Namco, although the game can be played using the standard Dual Shock 2 controller.
In Arcade Mode, the aim is simple, escape from Rockfort Island. The route to safety is split into stages with completion of each sector dependant on finding a key and defeating the boss character lurking in the area it opens all within a defined time limit. In addition to the bosses players must face an assortment of mutants from Zombies to the deadly Bandersnatch and Nemesis.
If players find things too tricky, Arcade mode offers assistance via the Partner System. This allows players to team up with a computer-controlled character to provide cover when the action heats up. If gamers select Claire then she will be partnered by Steve and vice-versa.
Without the assistance of a partner, Dungeon Mode pits players against successive waves of enemies. Completion of a mission is once again determined by defeating a boss, but the more zombies and mutants defeated the greater the overall mission score. Time is also crucial in this mode. Each time an enemy is defeated a Combo gauge appears and the player must defeat another enemy before this gauge runs out in order to receive an additional combo score. If players are quick and accurate enough then the combo will keep multiplying resulting in some huge scores.
To compensate for the lack of a partner, both Claire and Steve can select three weapons to take on the waiting zombies. Some weapons can be chosen by both Claire and Steve, while others such as the Magnum or the Grenade launcher are restricted to an individual character.

Official Fact Sheet:
In Ratchet: Deadlocked, Ratchet and Clank are captured and forced to compete on an underground reality combat sport show. The show, which features abducted heroes fighting for their lives against a gruesome gang of deadly Exterminators, is run by a deranged media mogul named Gleeman Vox, who intends to use Ratchet and Clank as his next contestants.
It doesn’t take Vox long to realize that Ratchet is the most promising contestant the show has ever seen. Vox subjects our hero to a series of deadly battles and elaborate games of death, much to the delight of the show’s enormous audience. To keep himself and his friends alive, Ratchet has no choice but to participate in the games and keep driving up the show’s ratings with spectacular victories — at least until our heroes can figure out a way to break free from Vox’s control, the explosive Deadlock collar fastened to his neck, and bring the mighty Vox Network crashing down.
Ratchet: Deadlocked features non-linear gameplay, allowing players greater freedom to choose their missions. In addition, all single-player levels will be available for multiplayer use. With much of the combat taking place in battlefields and arenas, gameplay will be more sports-oriented and will include announcer commentary. Featuring a new mission-structure approach, players will be rewarded with a constant progression of items such as weapons, armor and health. A new weapons modification system provides players the ability to choose the way their weapon powers up — both numerically and functionally — providing players with thousands of possible mod combinations. This allows for players to customize their Ratchet and Clank arsenal like never before.
Players can take advantage of the new co-op gameplay functionality available throughout the game by choosing either single-player or multiplayer story mode. In addition, squad-based gameplay will enable players to demolish the competition by commandeering their allied combat bots through critical and strategic battles. Each allied bot will have their own distinct personality, and a customization feature allows players to change body parts and textures.

Twelve champions from the far ends of the galactic hegemony compete for an interstellar trophy by racing their Blades – jet-engined, anti-gravity aircraft. The drama-filled competition is staged at break-neck speeds around spectacular tracks. The game features 24 circuits across 8 dramatic environments, ranging from a sub-tropical Ocean Dam to a race on and under a terraformed ring-world.
The original Powerdrome for the Amiga and the Atari ST was written by Michael Powell in 1988 and kicked-off the entire future-racing genre. Powell now heads the team developing the new Powerdrome and despairs of the lack of distinctiveness in recent future-racing titles.
Powerdrome’s designers have achieved a totally unique format by rigorously applying their focus on delivering a totally compelling driving experience. The team tackled this by not just developing the vehicle handling but on creating unique player-feedback mechanisms.

Vikki is a modern woman. A woman with stamina and determination. But she is also a woman with an enemy.

Portal Runner, released this autumn on PS2, will see Vikki embark on a series of adventures that bring together an emotional storyline and addictive gameplay set in verdant fantasy environments.
