Stargate keeps going

For a while, everyone was saying that season 8 of Stargate SG-1 was going to be the last one. However, I just learned today that both SG-1 and its spin-off series Stargate:Atlantis have been renewed for next year. Personnally, I have gotten much more attached to Atlantis since I have seen all episodes as opposed to SG-1 where I’ve not even seen a quarter. The beginning of Atlantis was a bit slow but the second half of the season was explosive and the characters keep getting more attaching.

As well, I just saw that a video game is being made set in the Stargate universe. It is a first-person game (probably a shooter) and will be called Stargate SG-1: The Alliance.

New project for Benoît Sokal after Syberia 1 and 2

After creating the excellent games L’Amerzone, Syberia 1 and 2 for Microïds, Benoît Sokal has created his own video game production company called White Birds Productions with two colleagues. Their first project is a new adventure game called The Lost Paradise. The game play seems similar to Syberia, with lush pre-rendered 3-D backgrounds and nicely animated 3-D characters with a point-and-click interface. There is no release date set for this project yet. For the beginning of the new year, a series of wallpaper calendars have been posted on their web site on the news page. These are really nice renders with sketches of the characters and locations of the game. A nice way to decorate your desktop.

New Zelda Game for the Game Boy Advance

Back in February 2003, I mentioned that an original Zelda game was being developed for the Game Boy Advance. Well, this game is not getting very close to its January 10th 2005 release date. The Minish cap will find Link on a new adventure trying to help the Minish, a race of tiny people. The game is being developer by Capcom and released by Nintendo. This will be a fun game to play after the multiple Zelda remakes that were released on the GBA.

Syberia II

The Syberia II web site has been officially opened earlier this week. The sequel to the amazing 2001 adventure game should be released in stores in spring 2004. I played through the first game and loved it. Now I want to know what will happen to the game’s hero, Kate Walker.

Runaway – A Road Adventure

I have just discovered a nice little gem called “Runaway A Road Adventure“. Despite the name making us think it’s an American game, this title was developed in Spanish, then translated to German, and now just came out in France. There is also an English version in development to be released in the next few months. As the name suggests, this is an adventure game, and a pretty good one from what I have seen in the demo available on their site. It is reminescent of Lucasarts Adventure Classic such as the Monkey Island games and Day of the Tentacle. The game is coming out in Quebec on April 22nd.
