Hot off the press wire, it's just been announced that Monster Madness: Battle for Suburbia (PC and Xbox 360) finally got the smiley-face stamp of the Games for Windows marketing campaign. The seal, mind you, isn't something trivial. Not all games get the Games for Windows certification.Now, Artificial Studios and SouthPeak Interactive's Monster Madness joins the ranks of other hard-hitting games (both already-released and TBA-clocked) like Halo 2 Vista, LotRO: Shadows of Angmar, Supreme Commander, Alan Wake, and LEGO Star Wars II. Titles that get the Games for Windows certification are those that meet the standards of Microsoft, as well as guaranteeing the game's compatibility with a range of hardware configurations. |

GameTrailers yields more Xbox 360 and PC gaming gold with the latest trailer for Artificial Studios' and Immersion Software & Graphic's video game, CellFactor: Revolution. The one-and-a-half minute of eye candy pretty much confirms that during play, you'll be able to do pretty much anything with your psychic powers, such as create devastating tremors, increase your speed - and this is a favorite of yours truly - throw heavy stuff around and hit people with 'em. No news if you'll be able to kill yaks from a distance with mind bullets just yet, but so far, the things you're capable of with your powers looks pretty sweet.
Don't take our word for it, though. Watch the trailer and see for yourself! |

In an interview with EuroGamer, Jeremy Stieglitz of Artificial Studios dropped a couple of on-the-horizon bombs of where their crazy top-down shoot-'em-up title is heading for. Monster Madness: Battle for Suburbia is about to comfortably set down its bottom onto the Xbox 360 and PC this May, but have you ever wondered if its zombies will eat its other neighbors (i.e. the PS3 and Wii)?Well, Stieglitz does show signs of interest for further expansion of the game. Firstly, those who have the 360 and PC versions of the game can expect some downloadable content: Eurogamer: Do you have more Monster Madness planned for the future, and will we see downloadable extras for the game? Yes, we'd definitely want to see more of Carrie and Jennifer. Playing a zombie-fest game as a hot chick has always been our fantasy. Now as for a possible game on other consoles: Eurogamer: Will we see Monster Madness on PS3 or Wii? Yes, the interest has been expressed for a cross-platform jump. What we do want to point out now is that the game runs on the Unreal Engine 3. Now, let's visualize: UE3 + PS3's Cell Processor, anyone? Hordes of zombies and rotting flesh on high-def, FTW! And hey, getting to play the crazy free-for-all with the prospect of using the Wiimote and Nunchuk ain't that shabby either. More of the interview behind the Read link below. |
