Below is the complete list of Hip Games™ titles to be shown at E3 2005: George A Romero presents City of the Dead™
Release Date: Q1 2006
Genre: 1st Person Shooter
Platform: PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system / the Xbox® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft/PC CD Rom
Description : The game is set on the Island of Ningun Futuro (Spanish for No Future), located off the coast of North America. The island is home to a secret operation military base, whose primary role was to testing weapon effects on cadavers. When the dead begin to rise, Dr Rocane the head Pathologist, thinks it is Christmas.
Call of Cthulhu: Destiny’s End
Release Date: Summer 2006
Genre: 3rd person Survival Horror
Platform: Multi-Platform Release
Description: Destiny’s End is a 3rd person Survival Horror game in which the player must guide two co-dependant characters through Cthulhu Mythos inspired encounters and situations. The game is based around the ruined fishing town of Innsmouth, a place destroyed by a government raid in 1928 and subsequently left to fester in ruin.
Ghost Wars™ (Description)
Release Date: Q1 2006
Genre: Real Time Strategy
Platform: PC CD Rom
Description : Terrorist actions - all threatening to have an impact of global scale - surface one after the other, to the greatest shock of western intelligence agencies. The responsibility to deal with the ever-increasing crisis falls on a small, but selected group of units belonging to a covert organization of the United States. While struggling desperately to contain the situation behind the scenes, and wage a secret war, the team unveils a grave and shocking discovery. The rest sound like total crap (Jackie Chan's Adventures. Anybody?) But the above 3 sounds kinda nice. I like that the Cthulhu mythos is actually getting some play. Between Dark Corners of the Earth and Destiny's End (+ whatever is inevitable in the future), we may actually get one or two decent titles out of the license before it fades back into obscurity. |

that Lovecraft stuff scared the bejeezus out of me. There was a not bad role playing game started back in '84 with it, lots of detail like MERP. Truly a great franchise to own and develop. |

I think some of the crusty old geezers around here actually play Cthulhu, Soln. That is when they're not dropping their seed all over Guild Wars.

How can a cthullu game be considered survival horror. If it is a real cthullu game nobody will survive or if they do they will be completly insane and drooling at the end.

Tuned in, immediately get to watch cringey Ubisoft talking head offering her deepest sympathies to the families impacted by the Orlando shooting while flanked by a man in a giraffe suit and some sort of "horrifically garish neon costumes through the ages" exhibit or something. We need to stop this fucking planet right now and sort some shit out. -Kail
