Gamin' NEWS! Chainsaws, lollipops and nightmares

 
Here's a new round of video game trailers~
Today, Chainsaws, lollipops and nightmares!!
First, here's Grasshopper Manufacture's latest venture.



It's called Lollipop Chainsaw!
Random! Yep! That's why it might actually be fun.
It's another crazy idea from the mind of creative director Suda51.

mock up cover.

It looks like a big budget Oneechanbara. A B-movie-like gaming series of hack'n'slash games.
This game looks similar in spirit and gameplay (but will surely control better and smoother).
Though as fun as it looks it lacks kinda of Oneechanbara grindhouse/cheesy tone. Lollipop Chainsaw seems only to feature the same content/theme and not the same "tone" if that makes sense.

Here's a recent interview:



I have to admit, at first I wasn't much interested in it. But it could turn out great!


And at SEGA, here's another horror-themed game.
This one, the only Xbox "Kinect" game that have had me interested in this gimmick controller:



Very fun lil' trailer^^
Rise of Nightmares seems to be an unofficial new entry in the House of the Dead series. (though, why didn't Sega use that ip? it looks, sounds and plays the same as HoD! and it's a marketable name who'd even boost some sales in the long term I'm sure!)


And that's it for the day, for now~
