Unreal Tournament 2007 – PC/PS3

2004's Multiplayer Game of the Year Returns with Improved Graphics, New Game Modes, Maps, Vehicles and More

"We feel confident that Unreal Tournament 2007 will deliver on Epic's promise to gamers to develop only the highest quality and most innovative titles using our cutting-edge Unreal Engine 3 technology," said Mark Rein, vice president and cofounder, Epic Games. "Unreal fans should rest assured that UT2007 will indeed raise the bar for not only the UT franchise but for all FPS titles, PC or console."

The game will feature many of the modes from the previous games in the series. Not returning, however, will be the Bombing Run, Double Domination, and Assault game types. The previously known Assault mode will be replaced by a new gametype called "Unreal Warfare", which will feature vehicles and accommodate a large number of players. According to sources within Epic, Onslaught Warfare will feature a style of gameplay similar to UT2004's Onslaught, while also having objective-based side missions (like Assault), where the outcomes of those side missions could sway match progress to a specific side with the addition of new weapons, vehicles and more.

Resistance Fall of Man – PS3

Developed by Insomniac Games, creators of the critically acclaimed Ratchet & Clank franchise, Resistance: Fall Of Man is shaping up to be a gripping first-person action game developed exclusively for the PlayStation 3. Set in a frightening, alternate 20th century reality, Resistance: Fall of Man plans to capitalise on PlayStation 3’s processing power to deliver a unique blend of harrowing military action and unnerving horror. Utilising its signature creative style, Insomniac Games claim to have created a truly next-generation experience featuring smarter enemies, a wide variety of horrifying creatures, physics-based weaponry, playable vehicles and highly detailed, diverse environments. Players will be challenged online and offline as Resistance: Fall of Man delivers an engaging single player campaign, a co-operative mode and one of the most complete multiplayer offerings in a console game.

The amazing footage also revealed a variety of new Nintendo characters who will be playable in the game, including Meta Knight, the sword-wielding nemesis of Kirby; Pit, the angelic archer from Kid Icarus; Zero Suit Samus, the powerful Metroid series heroine minus her versatile armour; and Wario, who demonstrated a noxious attack of gastronomic proportions.

Nintendo also revealed that the game will include Snake, the gritty soldier from Konami's hugely popular Metal Gear series.
