About two weeks back, we reported that Warhammer: Mark of Chaos was heading to the Xbox 360, according to the German ratings board USK. Well, today we finally got confirmation straight from Namco Bandai. But wait, there's more. The announcement also included Warhammer: Mark of Chaos - Battle March, an expansion for the PC version.

First off, the Xbox 360 version of Warhammer will be called Warhammer: Battle March. According to the release, the console version will be sporting content from the PC version, with spanking new features, online play via Xbox Live, and intuitive controls.

Warhammer: Battle March will be featuring six armies to choose from, as opposed to the original PC version's four. Army customization will be available so you'll be able to tell your soldiers apart from others, and you can also make your units as scary as possible to wreck havoc into your enemies' hearts.

Players will also be able to control Hero and Champion units that progress as you play the game. Two control schemes will be available, one for the novice players while the other one is more advance. Online multiplayer on Xbox Live can support up to four players in two modes, head-to-head skirmishes or team-based war.

Warhammer: Mark of Chaos - Battle March on the other hand will sport additional content for the PC version. The expansion's content will include new units for each army, online modes, and an original campaign. The number of armies are also expanded to six to include the Empire, Chaos, Skaven, High Elves, plus the new Dark Elf and Orcs & Goblins forces (same armies as the Xbox 360 version).

Sound interesting? Before you start bouncing off the walls, note that Warhammer: Battle March and Warhammer: Mark of Chaos - Battle March are scheduled for release next year. We'll keep our eyes peeled for more info, so stay tuned. In the meantime, feel free to admire the screenshots for both the Xbox 360 and PC versions at the Full Article link.

Shadowrun is better known for the pen and paper RPG with mixes advanced technology and magic. We will be seeing a port of the RPG on the Xbox360 and Windows Vista some spring of this year. Here's another sneak peek at the new first person shooter from FASA Studios.

To the uninitiated, the Shadowrun universe is populated with humans, elves, trolls, and dwarves (or atleast they're the playable races in game). Naturally, each race has different strengths and weaknesses. As any fan of the pen and paper Shadowrun would tell you, the game is only loosely based on the RPG since there are a lot of differences particularly on the racial traits, magic, and the lack of actual shadowrunners.

Anyway, lets hope that Shadowrun lives up to its name. While we wait for a concrete release date, here's another round of screens from the cyberpunk FPS.

Check out the rest of the screens after the jump!

For fans of the cyberpunk table-top RPG Shadowrun, things are about to get a next-gen turn as FASA Studios is gearing up for the Xbox 360 and PC adaptation of the beloved RPG. Though nothing quite compares to playing the pen-and-paper version of the game, FASA has just released this new batch of screenshots to show fans that the video game version of the title is also worth checking out.

As previously discussed by FASA's studio manager, Mitch Gitelman, Shadowrun will be a team-based FPS which blends elves, dwarves, trolls, magic, and ultra-modern weapon technology (fine, fine, it's Magitech...).

So, as we wait for FASA to finally peg down a date that's a bit more specific than "Spring 2007," hold on to that d6 dice set and enjoy these screenshots as we start thinking of the nice things to come.

More screenshots after the Jump!

WorthPlaying has recently published an interview with Seven Lights CEO Tim Harris, the head guy of the company behind The Continuum, a new online collectible war game that seeks to blend the best elements of strategy gaming, collectible gaming, RPGs and digital goods into a distinctive game universe. Read on for a few snippets off the interview.

On the game's storyline:

After a mysterious disruption in the space/time continuum, four planes of reality collapse upon each other, forming a new distinct reality dubbed the Crossworld by its denizens. The Crossworld is fused together from the four previously separate realities, and as a result, contains pieces and inhabitants of each. As the beings who find themselves in this new world try to survive and rebuild their lives, conflict arises, leaders emerge, and war ensues over the precious resources and ruins of the four once separate worlds.

New characters join the epic storyline as additional planes of reality collapse into The Crossworld, leading to questions—what is the cause of the disruption? How many more worlds will fold into the Crossworld? And what manner of beings are destined for the Crossworld in the future?

On the game's playable characters:

The Characters in the release set will come from 4 distinct realities: A world of shape-shifters, where all humans go through the Change into wolves, hawks, bears, and great cats; a world overrun by vampires, where the last remaining humans and elves have developed the power to bring forth Light to destroy their blood-sucking oppressors; a world where all people manifest a distinct power at some point in their lives (e.g., fire, ice, electricity, etc); and a world based on a dominant society conquering most of the known world (the Roman Empire meets medieval Asian Dynasties) and their enslaved species, thrust into gladiatorial combat as entertainment.
