Start with the bullet points:
General
● Peter Jackson, Fran Walsh & MS establish WINGNUT INTERACTIVE, Studio dedicated to creation of world class interactive entertainement (sounds like Hollywood version of Mistwalker).
Xbox 360
● PJ & Fran will work on two 360 exclusive franchises, first is the 'chapter in the Halo(r) universe' (read:Spinoff) the second is something original.
● HALO WARS from Ensemble 360 exclusive. Halo Wars places the player in command of human UNSC armies as they deploy for mankind's first deadly encounter with the enemy Covenant forces. (1, Direct feed trailer, Art/Images)
● GRAND THEFT AUTO IV will have two downloadable 'episodes' exclusive to 360, released months after launch. Reportedly each as long in content as Liberty City Stories on PSP.
● SPLINTER CELL 5 (the one after Double Agent) is 360 exclusive
● BIOSHOCK is 360 & PC exclusive releasing 'this spring.'
The trailer for this was fricken CRAZY.
You watch the main character pull a little girl from a vent and starts to juggle a wrench when all of a sudden a big hulking "protector" appears and lays the smackdown on the character. After beating the main guy up, he powers up a drill and the player character USES HIS HAND TO STOP THE DRILL. Then he uses some gene powerup thing to fight off the monster. After resting for a second, he screams in pain and looks down to see a drill portruding from his chest with blood dripping onto the floor. :nervous:
