Konami Announces Lords Of Shadow
Brand new IP from Konami, you say? Dark fairy tale, you say? Megahot flame-whip-wielding protagonist named Gabriel?
Yes, please.
Konami's just-unveiled Lords of Shadow, slated for a 2010 release on both PS3 and Xbox 360, looks freaking hot from what we can see, and Gabriel's weapon looks just as hot: the Combat Cross serves as chain whip, sword, mace and more while rocking the kind of oversized goth look that Cher would have loved back in her catalog days.
Executive Producer Dave Cox waxed rhapsodic about this promising new title:
"Lords of Shadow is a momentous title for us. Every element of the game pushes the host hardware to its limits, with Mercury Steam producing a game that has breath-taking visuals, incredible cinematic qualities, and varied and engrossing gameplay. It is truly an epic game but telling a human and emotive story. This is a title we hope will set a new standard for action-adventure titles."
I hope so too, Dave! We can't wait to hear more.

Wow... awesome trailer. The guys sort of looks like Hugh Jackman...
While I question the "game footage" being authentic (if it was all real, why would this game's release be set so far off into the distant sci-fi future of 2010?), the character and weapon look interesting. My interest is piqued. The next question is "What am I doing in this game?"
