Worms Revolution Announced
The last 'Worms' game i played was Worms IV. Pretty good game but it's just me or old games with basic graphics and good(easy) gameplay are better?
Anyway this is the evolution and developer Team 17 announced that they are going to release 'Worms Revolution' in Q3 this year. The game will be build from the ground up and will use a new engine.
Some of the features and challenges: Super Sheep and Holy Hand Grenade.
Here is the debut trailer:
Imagine this one in multiplayer. It looks like it keeps the old worms style.
SimCity 5 Official Announcement Trailer
There has been a few years since the last SimCity has been out. I'm sure that many of you who played the older versions are looking for a new game.
EA and Maxis the two companies that are also working on The Sims franchise are going to release SimCity 5 next year.
We also have an announcement trailer:
Mafia III enters production and a possible release date
I am sure the next news will get Mafia fans pumped up expecially after the ending Mafia 2 had. 2K studios announced that there will be a Mafia 3 game for sure then they announced that Mafia 3 entered pre-production and now the game is in development. We can only expect a great game.
The story of Mafia 3 is believed to continue the one from Mafia II and it will be set somewhere in the 50's or 60's.
We may not get a trailer or some screenshots at E3 this year but we may get some at E3 2013 since Mafia III is believed to have a release date set somewhere in summer 2013. Just like the second game has been released in the summer of 2010 2K will let at least three years between the games so that they can maximise their profits. Since their efforts are now concentrated on developing the third game we may also not see another DLC for Mafia 2.
So that being said we have a long time to wait but isn't it going to be a great battle between GTA V and Mafia III?
Which one would you choose?
Oh yeah and there is no April Fool's joke.

EA SPORTS UEFA Euro 2012 Expansion Pack News and Screenshots
This comes somehow unexpected since EA used to release a whole new game when the World Cup or EURO would be played. Now they decided to release an expansion pack for FIFA 12 and this is the way we will have EURO2012 on our gaming machines(PS3, Xbox360 and PC).
EA probably is following a new strategy without spending more money on developing a whole new game. This is better for them and their profit but for us, the fans of the series it's bad because even if there wasn't pretty much improvements (see WC2006, 2010) we still enjoyed the game probably a little bit more than the pervious version of FIFA. So EA is kind of ignoring the fans for the profit and they are also trying to get more money from the users who already bought FIFA12. They didn't include EURO2012 in the first place so that they can release EURO 2012 now as an expansion pack.
The EP will available from 24 April for Ł15.99 on PS3, PC and Xbox360. Here is the press release:
Electronic Arts announced today that EA SPORTS™ will celebrate UEFA EURO 2012™ with the only officially licensed videogame of the 2012 European Football Championship, which begins June 8 in Poland and Ukraine.
