Earlier today I found the latest trailer for Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicles, and for some reason I decided to hold off on posting it. It could have been that everyone was in a jolly mood in the office due to the long weekend ahead, or it could have been my interweb discussions on Football (soccer) and Fight Night Round 4. Those discussions were serious business. I like to think that I have some sort of sixth sense that tapped into my subconscious and forced me not to do the post yet. Either way, I’m glad I didn’t. You see, now there is new video representing Dead Space:Extraction. Not only is it the prequel to a very successful title, and the franchises first appearance on the Wii, it is the main competition for RE:DC. You see, both games are on-rail shooters in the survival-horror genre. Both games are repping for an already successful franchise, even if Dead Space is the new kid on the block. Basically, these two games are going to be compared to each other. A lot. There are some gamers that are lucky and are never faced with the “This game or that game” dilemma. I am not one of them. In fact, I face that conundrum all the time. I get the “This game, bills, that game, bills, wife, or bills” choice that I have to make. Unfortunately, games are not high on that list. And yes, my wife is first on it. For gamers like myself the choice between these two games may be easy as it looks like RE:DC has been pushed back to 2010, while DS:E is due out in September. But, if they released at the same time the decision would definitely be hard to make. The gamer would have to do things like read about the games, watch videos and look at images of them, check out their favorite blogs written by guys named Mike, and all sorts of other tedious tasks. Well, that’s what makes this post so special, because I now get to present you with the latest 2-minute trailer for Resident Evil:Darskide Chronicles. Then, I get to feel the amazing sensation of following that up with a 4-minute trailer for Dead Space:Extraction. That’s like 6 minutes of zombie and alien killing on-rail awesomeness!! Yes, things are getting real. Check the videos below, and please, be sure to enjoy them!

Although working for a games company such as Nintendo seems like a dream job for every gamer, it does get old, especially if you have other interests you want to pursue.

Such is what happened to Wii Fit designer Motoi Okayama, who has left the company to get going on his dream of starting up his own website dedicated to a gallery of action figure pictures.

At 33 years old, he has worked the past ten years as programmer and game designer for Nintendo, with Wii Play and Wii Fit scrawled neatly in his resume. But then he loves the Internet, and his job at Ninty does not give him the opportunity to work on the Internet.

He recounts,

Thinking about my 10 years at Nintendo, I started to get impatient, that there were these things I wanted to do. The fact that I didn't get to have an influence on the Internet disappointed me. Nintendo has a very strong family-oriented brand, and I felt certain resistance to being able to start up any new online services.

Nintendo doesn't have any projects relating to the Internet, and it'll never pull out completely from packaged goods. It just seemed the next step.

Now that he's gone from Nintendo, he's fully enjoying his hobbyist site, FG, launched nine months ago, currently home to 18,000 members and growing.

Is Paul W.S. Anderson gearing up to make a new Resident Evil film? The answer would be yes, according to film website ShockTillYouDrop. A studio insider supposedly told them that Sony is in fact scheduling a release for September 17, 2010. This would be followed later on by a confirmation of the release date via an internal memo circulating the office.

Are we going to Tokyo?

It was late in 2008 when director Paul W.S. Anderson revealed that he was writing another film, saying that he was "excited" about it. We were also told then that Capcom was getting involved. And now, it is reportedly confirmed that a Resident Evil 4 is indeed in the works, under the title of "Resident Evil: Afterlife".

Given how Resident Evil: Extinction ended - Mila Jovovich and her clones were getting ready to attack Umbrella Corp in Tokyo - it is highly possible that Tokyo will be the new setting of the said film. Now wouldn't that be just cool?
