More videos from Digital Life
Gamertag Radio (with Godfree and friends) is starting to piss us off. First they get to go to Digital Life in NYC. Then they have the nerve to post a bunch of videos the first day. Now they go and do it again! To top it all off, Godfree got the sweet RoboBlitz shirt pictured above. It's like they just love to make us feel unwanted. But, that's just the way it goes. After the break you can check out videos of RoboBlitz (listen to its hip-hop theme song here), Mutant Storm Empire, Heavy Weapon (!), Street Trace NYC (?), and a quick tour of Microsoft's parental education bus.
RoboBlitz hitting Steam
The proficient program plumbers at Valve have issued a press release announcing the imminent arrival of RoboBlitz on their digital distribution network, Steam. Developed by Naked Sky Entertainment and powered by Unreal Engine 3, the action game is largely comprised of physics, explosions, robots and maladjusted space pirates (it says here). Tian Mu, CEO of Naked Sky, explains that after realizing how hot Steam was, he simply needed to have his game all over it."Steam is an attractive platform for the release of RoboBlitz. We're looking forward to being able to release to Steam's huge PC audience. Additionally, we have long-term plans to expand RoboBlitz with new content. Through Steam, we have a great avenue for delivering the game and updates directly to over 10 million gamers' PCs."RoboBlitz will see release in the "coming weeks," most likely alongside the previously announced Xbox Live Arcade version. The game is priced at $14.99 on Steam -- that roughly translates to 1200 MS Points on the Xbox 360, should the price remain the same on both platforms. Check out the (fairly old) trailer after the break.
RoboBlitz looks real perty
Some new -- and oddly not widescreen -- shots of Naked Sky's RoboBlitz were released today. Once only a tech demo, RoboBlitz is now a full fledged Xbox Live Arcade title powered by the Unreal Engine. The gameplay is based entirely on physics and features cool weapons, humorous characters, and, of course, robots. Looks pretty nice.Oh, and it's expected to cost 1200 points. So, let's get the complaining out of the way now while it's still fresh.
