Skate 2 dev diary talks online modesToday

Filed under: News

We know you were all excited to try out Skate 2's online modes in the recently released demo. Thus, we also know that you were devastated to find out the demo doesn't have online modes. We'd like to tell you that we've magically enabled online play so you could try it out, but you'll just have to settle for a developer diary video instead. In said dev diary, Skate 2 online producer Brian Lindley discusses the various online modes. Among these modes are Hall of Meat, in which players compete for the most damaging bail. Players can also engage in Freeskate Activities, which are simple challenges in which all online players can compete. Finally, there's Create A Spot, which allows players to create their own custom skating spots, which can then be uploaded for other players to try.

Especially neat is that players can jump from the single player game world straight to online at any time right from the pause menu. Very slick. Skate 2 debuts later this month.

New screens and a trailer for PrototypeToday

Activision has dropped some new screens and a brand new trailer for Prototype, its upcoming mutant-powered destruct-o-thon. Every new screen has one thing in common: All of them are dripping with blood or some other variety of viscous goo. The trailer has its fair share of liquid life as well. Oh, and the video also features someone taking out a helicopter by throwing a person at it (that seems familiar somehow). See the glorious, gory action after the break and check out the new screens in the gallery below.

If all that's not enough for you, you can also check out a new preview at IGN.

Sony Pictures: Ghostbusters busts out June 16Today

Filed under: News

According to a press release from Sony Pictures, the upcoming Ghostbusters video game will release on June 16. The game is set to release alongside the Blu-ray edition of Ghostbusters. Both are being released in commemoration of the 25th anniversary of the film, first released in 1984. No further details are given about the game, as the press release chiefly concerns the Blu-ray release of the film. Of course, you could always read Joystiq's hands-on with the game if you want details.

Ghostbusters was picked up by Atari late last year after it was left without a publisher thanks to the merger of Activision and Vivendi.
