Brothers In Arms: Furious 4 is full of basterds
There’s a thin line between “delightful homage” and “copyright infringement” and Gearbox’s next game, Brothers In Arms: Furious 4, dances right along it. Furious 4 brings the Duke Nukem Forever developer back to World War II with a squadron of soldiers who use some rather… unorthodox… methods when fighting Nazis behind enemy lines.
The game will offer a four-player co-op allowing you and all your friends to play as Stitch, a crazed guy who employs a tazer; Crockett, a Texan who carries a six-shooter and a cattle brand; Chok, a Native-American who throws a mean hatchet; and Montana, the big bruiser with the minigun (every game’s gotta have one). Their mission is to track down Hitler himself while battling a “secret” army full of Nazi “experiments.”
So yeah, it’s basically Inglourious Basterds: The Game.
Ubisoft will release Brothers In Arms: Furious 4 for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 in 2012.
Sony @ E3 11: Jack Tretton delivers heartfelt apology
Now that the presser’s over, I wanted to add one extra thing: Sony CEO Jack Tretton’s apology. Tretton stood up on stage at the start of the press conference to address the “elephant in the room” – namely, the PlayStation Network outage. He said “you’re welcome” to the press for giving them bad news to report on, thanked both third party developers and retailers, and gave a heartfelt message to PlayStation fans. “It is you that both causes us to be humble and amazed in the dedication and support you give the PlayStation brand,” Tretton said.
Aww. We <3 you too, Jack. And for the record, I loved your tie.

We heard about the ambitious Star Trek co-op title coming next year, now Sony is getting in on the deal. An exclusive digital prequel chapter will be released on the PlayStation Network.

Sony @ E3 11: Enhanced Move functionality in InFamous 2 and LittleBigPlanet 2
Starting tomorrow, gamers will be able to create levels with the PlayStation Move in inFAMOUS 2. Not only that, but starting in September, they’ll be adding a deeper functionality to the creation aspect of LittleBigPlanet 2, with and for PlayStation Move. Considering how disappointing Sackboy’s Prehistoric Moves was, I’m eager to see what the community will create.

Sony @ E3 11: Medieval Moves coming Fall 2011 from the creators of Sports Champions
Sony wasted no time unveiling new PlayStation Move titles, as NBA 2K12 would be getting PlayStation Move support. But a new title built from the ground up with the motion controller will also be coming: Medieval Moves: Dead Man’s Quest. From the creators of Sports Champions, it admittedly looks like the gladiator and archery segments of that game built into a larger action game. However, throughout the large setting with multiple branching paths, players will need to overcome traps and platforming segments in order to progress.
Medieval Moves will arrive on PlayStation 3 in Fall 2011.
Sony @ E3 11: Kobe Bryant comes out to demo NBA 2K12
Kobe Bryant came out on stage to demonstrate 2K’s NBA 2K12, which has a new Move feature. Using the PlayStation’s motion controller, you can simply point at the player you want to pass to and pull the trigger. Once you’re ready to take it to the hoop, your player will use the best move in his arsenal to try to score.
Bryant cracked some jokes about how the triangle defense on the Lakers in the game was better than in real life, which elicited some chuckles from the crowd. Be on the lookout for this game in the Fall, especially those of you with the Move.
