#GAMINGnews [18+] Hotel Barcelona Launch trailer at TGS2023 [DIRECTOR'S CUT]

 My most hyped game of the year/2024 is finally here!!! FINALLY!!!

SWERY65 and SUDA51 are back and together for the first time with...

""Hotel Barcelona," where serial killers from all over the United States are said to have gathered. You must defeat them and check out before all the blood is spilled. Japanese game creators SWERY65 and SUDA51 have teamed up to create this ambitious work. Availlable on STEAM/Xbox/PS5 in 2024!

Can't wait! And here's the trailer:

Nice. I do see both the Swery and the Suda aesthatic mixed in there! I wasn't expecting a 2.5D hack and slash though. But the killer and weirdness is all here.

#GamingNEWS The Good Life | Publishing Announcement | PEGI

Finally! Swery65's new game The Good Life has finally been picked up by a publisher! And I can't wait for it!

I finished The Missing about a month or so ago. And I can’t wait for this one. I love his little touches and quirks, it makes all his games all sorts of charming, weird and captivating. and I like his recent Bingo-of gaming genres, lately. Back then from Extermination-Spy Fiction-Deadly Premonition 1, most of the games played and looked pretty similar. But the last few The Missing-DP2-The Good Life are such huge departures from one game to the next. I can’t wait!

 

The game's scheduled to launch on PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC in summer 2021.

#GamingNEWS Welcome to Le Carré! – Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise (Nintendo Switch)

Last of Us 2, what's that???

Here it is!! My most highly anticipated game release of this generation - NO JOKE!

Deadly Premonition 2 is only two weeks away from us, and I can't wait for it!!



Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise comes to Nintendo Switch on July 10th 2020.

#GamingNEWS Surprise! Suda51 X Swery69 Project: Hotel Barcelona! FK STRIKES AGAIN!

This end of October have come out with some of the best news of the year - to me personally.

A random Suda (Silver Case, Killer 7, No More Heroes,etc.) and Swery (Deadly Premoniation, Spy Fiction, D4,etc.) collaboration was braindstormed during a Q&A Panel. Then picked up some heat on twitter. Found a music composer, game publisher, etc. And even a surprise guest producer on the table.

They seem to know each other and be pretty close, reblogging each other's content on twitter and such. In fact I'd say their games have similar flavor, even if pretty different usually. A similar love to grindhouse/popculture/meta takes on typical action and adventure games.

The developers behind No More Heroes and Deadly Premonition are teaming up for a new horror game. https://t.co/7ld3BuZAeR pic.twitter.com/loF93OmjMe

Long story short, Suda and Swery have been working on a collaboration for a little while. They revealed it to the world recently.

Suda51 and Swery will discuss "their secret project" during an IGN Japan livestream on October 23, 19:00 JSThttps://t.co/pnSGfoGUZP

For now they've been calling this project "Hotel Barcelona". And it's going to be a survival horror title, because both haven't made a proper one so far but love the horror genre and have diped in it with some odd titles before (Michigan: Report from Hell, Shadows of the Damned, Extermination..)

Also Jukio Kallio(@jukiokallio is interested in making music for "Hotel Barcelona". It sounds good for me.@suda_51 @IGNJapan @kemta https://t.co/03P1eBDmU2

— SWERY69🎃 (@Swery65) October 23, 2019

 

During the infamous live Q&A panel, they texted other people and got Jukio Kallio for the music of Hotel Barcelona, as well as noneother than Silent Hill/Siren creator Keiichiro Toyama to join them on their indie horror collaborative project!

This is getting pretty epic!

They then got Devolver Digital interested in publishing the game, they're just jokingly waiting to see Swery pitch them the actual game we don't know a thing about so far.

Gonna need @SUDA_51 and @Swery65 to pitch us this mysterious game we’re supposedly publishing.

Name a time and place, gentlemen. https://t.co/duvQWVj1CO

— Devolver Digital (@devolverdigital) October 23, 2019

 

And that's where we are so far.
A collab with the creator of Silent Hill, a composer and publisher to go along.
This horror game has been developed for a while behind the scenes as an indie project. They got a budget set. The project's title might end up the name of the actual game.

Update: Suda51 and Swery are working together on an indie horror title, Hotel Barcelona

- Budget is $1m
- Published by Devolver Digital
- Inspired by Siren (Swery also mentioned David Lynch/Twin Peaks S3)
- Game is supposed to be "easy to pick up", possibly coming to mobile pic.twitter.com/MwfESarf1i

— Nibel (@Nibellion) October 23, 2019

  

And I can't wait to see my two favorite game devs make a game together! It's gonna be weird for sure. Fun. And play with the concept of what an horror game is no doubt. (And have some pop culture references and Twin Peaks inspiration, for sure.)

I can't wait to hear more from this epic project!!

#GamingNEWS Deadly Premonition 2 - Nintendo Direct 9.4.2019 - Nintendo Switch

And the best news to have come out this last Nintendo direct is....



Deadly Premonition 2!

That's right, Zack! Everyone's favorite Twin Peaks-inspired horror game is back!

Nintendo tweeted "Deadly Premonition 2 : A Blessing in Disguise". So this is real. Because It's too late for April fool, Right Zach?#deadlypremonition #DeadlyPremonition2 #dp2 https://t.co/gJ4TSB2dNh

Swery is back with a game that will allow us some closure as well as some flashbacks, between past and future, York and Zack. Here's the preview:



The true sequel to Deadly Premonition is coming to the Switch in 2020. And if you want to be brought up to speed, the original game is also coming under the title Deadly Premonition Origins, to get ready for the sequel.

Switch in the coffee... what does that mean, Zack?

SWERY's new game turned out a great surprise, albeit a pretty short one!

Please! Do not ask for these! This was a personal job, not outsourcing the work to other people. If you want me to work out something for you, I will do so for money only.

Since I decided to finally pick up a "digital copy" of SWERY's D4 on Steam, I had to make a mockup cover for my physical collection!

I'm not allowing the comments below to avoid the spam I usually get on these.

VGR Extermination

This game is what you'd get if you mix an old school survival horror Deep Fear with a recent action game like Dead Space.

Alright, that was just a silly pun on the developers name, Deep Space. But I still stand by my point, the game does remind me of both of those titles actually.

#AprilFoolsDay - #SWERY teases a D5

Not cool, SWERY!

SWERY teased a fake sequel to D4 on the official website, which crosses over with one my all-time favorites Deadly Premonition!

And yes, that's just a joke.

"D5: Dark Dreams Don't Die with Deadly Premonition"!

Sigh...

I would actually totally love to see this for real... Come on, SWERY! DO IT! You know you want to!!

#Mega64 - D4 "DARK DREAMS DON'T DIE"

Alright, now I really want to play D4 even more than before...



My new favorite video from the crew at Mega64.

#E3 NEWS! Day 2 recap

Another day of E3 has passed. Now I know everybody's been loving all the new stuff Nintendo showed. But you know me... (and if you don't... well, now's as a good time as any to get the picture) Not much surprised or interested me. For me it was much of the same. SURE! I know it's going to sell a lot/get a ton of great sales & reviews...

#Gaming NEWS! New D4 pics

If there was a reason to get an Xbox One - FOR ME at least - this game would be it:

D4 aka "Dark Dreams Don’t Die"! (I'm guessing SWERY - remember the awesome Deadly Premonition? My fav title to have come out of this entire gen' - wanted a little nod at the "D" series by WARP )

Screw both all those big budget franchises AND indie games! I just want random weird quirky studio games!~

#Gaming NEWS! Deadly Premonition?....

Someone from SWERY's team said this recently:

Suehiro told the PlayStation Blog that he’s “in discussion” with co-creator Tomio Kanazawa about the future of Deadly Premonition.
“It may not be Deadly Premonition 2 but it’s definitely going to be something,” he said.
“At the moment we’re talking about how it might be interesting to set the game in Europe.”
Kanazawa said that like the first Deadly Premonition the follow-up will have a rural setting.
“Hitchin, for example. I’ve lived in Hitchin for many years as I’ve been working with Rising Star Games. When I first started living there, there was no entertainment – I could find nothing. But I have come to love it over time – so I recommended it to Swery,” he said.
Suehiro also told the site that apart from Deadly Premonition, he’d like to make something episodic.
“Like a TV series, where each instalment is unique and interesting and makes you want to play the next one,” he said.
“It could be affordable for players, but would make them want to play more. Something like that.”
Asked whether he meant something like Telltale’s The Walking Dead series, Suehiro agreed.
“Yes. I liked it because it gave players choices – often ethical choices. I like that aspect in games,” he said. - Source.

Just look at the many pics SWERY's taken on his recent trip around Europe on his twitter!

I love Deadly Premonition and SWERY.
The GAME IS JUST THAT AWESOME!!

So I'll be definitively keeping an eye on it...

#Gaming NEWS! Deadly Premonition redux

Here's a pretty unique awesome interview from SWERY on GiantBomb I thought it would be nice to share over here - for the upcoming release of Deadly Premonition: The Director's Cut.

BEST. INTERVIEW. Ever produced! 

Ain't that right, Zack? It reminds me of... that's right, that's awesome game that was released a few years ago. And did you know that... that's right again. It's going to be re-released. I cannot wait for it. Ho, you too Zack? 

Let's have some more coffee.

#Gaming NEWS! Deadly Premonition Director’s Cut is Happening!!

It seems that the re-released of my favorite game this generation is actually happening!

Deadly Premonition: Director’s Cut has been officially confirmed and announced!
So if you haven't tried it yet, now's the time.

This updated version of the game will be exclusive to PS3 (sigh-).
And for now it has only been announced for PS3 in the Pal and NTSC region - where the original hadn't been released.
But it will be much more than a simple fix for those unreleased spots. The game is said to now includes new scenarios, reworked combat controls, and be downloadable content-enabled to “expand the mystery beyond the original game.”
Thus the "director's cut" in the title!

If you ask me..

This director's cut should threw out all the "zombies" you fight in the game.
I mean, Swery already confirmed the editor forced those and he only was going to make a detective/Twin Peaks-y game originally, not a "generic survival horror". (which the zombie parts makes this game looks like)

Here's a fun Twin Peaks/Deadly Premonitions comparison

Here's a pretty fun Twin Peaks/Deadly Premonitions comparison post I found.
It's pretty neat, there's some direct musical cues comparison on the page (how do you post those?!)

Old news, but good stuff nonetheless.
