Atari has assured us a playable demo for Alone in the Dark is still coming to Xbox Live Marketplace.
"The Alone in the Dark Xbox 360 demo is currently being finalised," the company said in a statement, "And will be available on Xbox Live Marketplace in the coming weeks."
Still no specific date, then. But you could always just buy the game, seeing as it was released for PC, PS2, Xbox 360 and Wii on Friday. The PS3 version is out the autumn.

Last week, getting a look at materials thanks to the sieve that is Intellisponse, hints dropped that Forza 3's car and track catalog was so deep it would need to release on two discs. The Angry Pixel says it has a source who "claims that this may not necessarily happen in the long run."
We questioned the possibility of Forza 3 being distributed on more than one disc. Our source was quick to comment that “one way or the other, the core game will be shipped on a single disc. Content won’t be sacrificed … fans will be pleasantly surprised for what’s in store.”
Angry Pixel went snooping around Dhruva Interactive, a Bangalore-based developer that's worked on Forza in the past, as well as Project Gotham Racing 3 and 4, so presumably the unnamed source is from there. There was the obligatory "more to come fairly soon" (which means E3) but no other details.

Unlimited Destruction: Become the Incredible Hulk and experience unlimited destruction. Players can demolish anything in their path and also use it as a weapon – pieces of a crumbling building…a passing car…a light standard.
Powerful Rage: Rage is power. Build the Hulk’s rage to learn powerful moves. Cause unheard-of damage to gain and upgrade his abilities.
Incredible Scale: New York City’s towering skyscrapers allow for exciting vertically based gameplay, while powerful, massive enemies such as Bi-Beast and the Abomination challenge the Hulk’s might.
Dynamic Open World: A realistic next-gen, open-world representation of Manhattan provides gamers with an immense playground of destruction that also contains sub-quests, minigames, and a story that reaches beyond the film to include elements from classic Marvel comics.

On Wednesday, PlayStation Lifestyle posted up a rumor that Microsoft was supposedly gunning for a timed Xbox 360 exclusive, to be paid for in cash money and announced at E3. Following an understandable uproar on the part of PlayStation fans, Capcom has set the record straight via their official message forums.
In fact, said record-straightening was done by Christian Svensson, Capcom's VP of strategic planning and business development, who wrote: "The assertion is false. RE5 is a multiplatform release that fits with our oft-stated crossplatform strategy." In the same thread, Svensson confirms "for the avoidance of doubt" that the game will be a simultaneous release on both platforms. Thanks for being so quick with the extinguisher on this one, Sven.

Thanks to the Platinum Games/Sega crossover announcement, I had the opportunity to speak with the head of Nudemaker (Hifumi Kouno), which I was very excited about. As a splinter company from Human (all of which are very interesting - Grasshopper, Sandlot, Spike, and others), Nudemaker has been making odd games like Tekki, Clock Tower, and some hentai games. Currently they are working on Infinite Line for DS. Since this was my first opportunity to talk to Kouno, I didn't waste much time talking about his upcoming game (whoops), but rather about what he's been doing since Tekki. Though the interview was unfortunately cut short, I was able to talk with someone seriously about what you can do in a hentai game from a design and emotional standpoint. Obviously I would've interviewed him for longer if I could, and another opportunity to do so may present itself soon. For now, please enjoy!

Turn-based RPG battles don't have to be slow, dull number games. Just check out these mental screens of Square's Infinite Undiscovery.
Giant tidal waves battering through crumbling buildings, massive explosions wrecking giant snakes, screen-filling flame effects on slashing swords, dragons raining down fireballs of death - it's all kicking off.
Developer Tri-Ace looks to be doing a bloody good job, and is due to have the game on shelves September 5 over here, too. FFXIII may be PS3-exclusive, but Xbox fans won't care if this is as actually as good as it looks.
These shots surfaced on a nice new official Japanese site well worth seeing. After this lot, you should check the game out in motion as well.

Command and Conquer PlayStation fans (must be some out there) will be disappointed to know that there was never any possibility of the latest game in the franchise ending up on PS3.
Speaking to CVG, C&C producer Jim Vessella said that the "PS3 was not in consideration".
"We weren't planning on PS3 for Tiberium Wars or Kane's Wrath," he told us. "We really wanted to focus on Xbox 360 and master that platform before diving into another one."
The victory cries of Xbox 360 fanboys will be short-lived however, as he added that EA has every intention of supporting the PS3 from now on.
"We're definitely considering the PS3 for future versions of our games and future versions of Command and Conquer," he added. "Although we don't have specifics just yet on when that's going to happen.
"But the PS3 is definitely successful and we really want to give that platform love in the future."

EA has chucked over some exclusive screens from the soon-to-be released Xbox 360 version of Command and Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath.
The screens depict the Global Defence Initiative, Brotherhood of Nod and Scrin battling against each other some varied terrain.
Control systems have also been optimised, so hopefully console owners won't find they are battling with a badly ported interface just to play the game.
It's looking good. Instead of being an expansion pack like its PC sibling, the game will be a stand alone product that will contain a variety of exclusive content not seen before.
Check out the new screens of the 360 version below and hit this link for the full interview.

Lionhead has shed some light on the characters you'll meet while exploring Fable 2, and claims to have "one of the most evil people in videogame history".
These nasty, or nice people you meet during side-quests in Albion will act as "moral signposts", according to creative director Dene Carter talking to IGN, and will tie in with but not drastically alter the outcome of the main campaign.
You'll also not be able to accidentally butcher a key figure and "ruin the story"; Lionhead likes its open world, but also wants you to see certain bits and do certain things it has spent a long time making.
The first examples of the faces you'll come across in Fable 2 are Arfur, a murderous and vicious thief who sounds like the infamous Bill Sykes; Barnum, an unlucky inventor likely to be laughed off of Dragon's Den time and time again; and Giles, a tough-as-old-boots farmer who used to be a soldier and now has problems with a violent gang.
We're told there are all sorts of characters to meet and each will have a story of varying length to unravel - some may not even exist because of your actions elsewhere in the world. Carter is coy over how many will be in the final game, but suggests that 50 hours of voice-acting gives us a rough idea. That's more than a season of Buffy, admits Carter.
Doing tasks for people earns you renown that can cheapen services offered by those characters. You can also do things for normal people ambling around.
But not everyone will like you, and some will make their mind up based solely upon what you are wearing. However, Carter says there will be a section of the interface to help us understand what makes certain characters "tick".
You can also kill people so you can buy their house on the cheap. Beat that, housing market.

It feels like forever since I first sat down with Torpex Games' dream team of Bill Dugan and Jamie Fristrom about how fast and easy it was to develop using Microsoft's XNA . While the initial prototype may have only taken four days, the company's first game, Schizoid, has been in the works for quite some time. Well now things are coming to a head, as Torpex has dropped us a line to let us know that Schizoid will be making its Xbox Live Arcade debut next month. While no specific date or price was mentioned, it's good to know I'm that much closer to getting my hands on the title I've been itching for since early 2007.

Here's the latest batch of Halo Wars screens, and it's all looking very nice.
to be cooking up a pretty chaotic RTS with the Halo universe, with Scarabs and Scorpion Tanks rumbling through massive open environments packed with smaller infantry units, Warthogs, Banshees and all sorts of other units. Read more about it in this detailed preview.
The shots below aren't the ideal resolution, but well worth a look, and you can see loads more on GamePro.
