L4D2 promises to set a new benchmark for co-operative action games, adding melee combat to enable deeper co-operative gameplay, with items such as a chainsaw, frying pan, axe, baseball bat, and more. Eagle eyes spotted a L4D 2 game listing on EA's PS3 section (in two separate places) including a mock up box covers, before it was taken down. It's not a secret Valve isn't a fan of PS3 development, so maybe EA is outsourcing the project like it did with the Orange Box.

When Ascaron filed for Chapter 11 a few months back, it revealed that an add-on for its recently released Sacred 2 was in development, as well as a 3rd installment in the franchise. When Kalypso acquired most brands, intangible assets and exploitation rights, it wasn't quite sure whether that included Sacred or not, but according to community manager Anca Adelina Finta, Ascaron still has the license for Sacred 2, and one of its subsidiary studios will continue working on the add-on.

Runic Games, former Flagship Studios developers responsible for Mythos, announced Torchlight, an adventure-themed action-MMORPG which emphasizes a simple and intuitive interface, fast and furious action, and a colorful and compelling game world.

ArmA II is set in the near future, year 2009, in a fictional post soviet country called Chernarus. Players will be sent as members of a US Marine Corps Force Recon squad to this country to prevent further civilian casualties and ensure ongoing stability there.

Exod Intervention is an FPS with tight controls, analog snap shooting, and arcade style action with light RPG elements.

Modern Warfare 2 continues the gripping and heart-racing saga with an unprecedented level of action as players face off against a new threat dedicated to bringing the world to the brink of collapse.

While 'Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe' was not exactly a bad game, many fans were miffed over the fact that the franchise's trademark fatalities were severely toned down to fit with the DC license. However, the game sold rather well, and while it was already revealed quite a while ago that a new MK title is in development, its future is somewhat uncertain because of Midway's state of affairs. Nonetheless, creator Ed Boon revealed that work on Mortal Kombat 9 is proceeding and that a recent motion capture session promises to bring the series back to its M-rated roots with "sick" fatalities.
