Rise of the Triad will release on July 31 for $15. The gorey 1994 shooter remake from Interceptor Entertainment will hit Steam, Good Old Games, and Green Man Gaming with a nostalgia-laden Apogee Throwback Pack in store for pre-orderers.
The fast-paced FPS goes for fast, twitchy action, with plenty of bizarre weaponry like the Excalibat and Drunk Missile retained from the original. But now the gibs are coming at you polygonally!
(What exactly are those eyeballs sticking to and sliding down at 0:34? Is the protagonist protected by a clear plastic sheet, like at a Gallagher show?)
If you'd prefer the original flavor, the Apogee Throwback Pack includes the original Rise of the Triad: Dark War, expansion pack Extreme Rise of the Triad, Blake Stone: Aliens of Gold, and Blake Stone: Planet Strike. It's available separately for $10.
Call of Duty: Ghosts' pre-order map gives a vertigo-inducing look at the game's ever-changing multiplayer arenas. Free Fall is an all-new map (as in, not another Nuketown) which shows off Ghosts' focus on dynamic map events.
Free Fall sets players against each other in a decrepit skyscraper--kind of like a post-apocalyptic Wayside School. The tower is tilting, and as each match progresses it shifts further and further: meaning that shot you were lining up could be blocked by a collapsed elevator shift, and that window you were walking across could be in pieces hundreds of feet down (also you).
"It's a really fun new feature that adds layers of strategy and constantly evolving gameplay options for players," executive producer Mark Rubin said in a release. "And this is just one of the many new approaches we're putting into Ghosts' multiplayer across the board. There's so much more that we look forward to sharing in the weeks to come."
Call of Duty: Ghosts will hit PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 on November 5, and PS4 and Xbox One later in the year. Why this decrepit tower is worth fighting over, we have no idea...
The first Xbox Live Games with Gold title is Defense Grid: The Awakening. The Xbox Live Arcade title normally costs 800 Microsoft Points ($10) but is free for Gold members from July 1 to July 15.
We previously reported that Halo 3 and Assassin's Creed II would kick off the twice-monthly free games program, but that was evidently a mix-up. Microsoft mentioned both titles would be featured when it debuted Games with Gold, but did not say they'd be the first two to appear.
Xbox Live's Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb apologized for the disappointment in a Reddit thread about the title, where several users complained about the relatively low-profile game compared to some of PlayStation Plus' offerings.
"I don't work in marketing, but I am going to make them aware of this thread," Hryb wrote.
The program is slated to last through December 2013, though Hryb said it may last longer if it fares well. Either way, you don't have to remain a paid member to play the games.
