Starbreeze Studios, the Swedish makers of 'The Chronicles of Riddick', and the people behind the next-gen game 'The Darkness'.

Without further adieu, here is the exclusive interview with Starbreeze Studios:

this is going to be a really nice game. can't wait to play it.

sony guys are getting this too and will get to experience some of the greatness we xboxers got with Riddick. have fun.

USMChardcharger7164d ago

any one care to explain this to us non tech know it alls...

"The PowerPC part of the Cell is very similar to a Xbox360 CPU
core. They share most of the common performance problems and are both quite bad at running generic c++ code."

Dick Jones7164d ago

Just sounds like some geek complaining about the dificulties of making my game. I don't care, just GIT-R-DONE!!!

andy capps7163d ago

I'm not a tech know-it-all, but I believe he's referring to the PPU part of the cell. There's 1 PPE, and 7 SPE's. I'm wondering why they're using the PPE as the cell is designed to let the SPE's do almost everything, maybe that's what he discusses in the article. I can't read it at work though because of firewalls, anyone care to paste the article in here?

The Snake7163d ago

...this game has characters (I believe the Darklings) voiced by none other than MIKE PATTON himself. Holy crap that's awesome. Also, Riddick was an awesome game so I don't see why this can't rule as well.

At first I was like, No Code Veronica on the list!? But then I seen Mainline. The list checks out, but I would personally put 2 over 4.

KwietStorm_BLM2d ago

I'll take 2 over 4 also. And even without a number, I don't see how Code Veronica, my other favorite in the franchise, isn't mainline when it's the actual sequel to RE2.

Rebel_Scum2d ago

The original RE was the best. Its not on the list which makes no sense.

The remake of it was alright but should be higher on this list.

-Foxtrot2d ago

The original RE smokes VII and Village, come on.
