Sounds like it could be a next-gen version of the under-rated PS2 games SOS / Raw Danger

Exactly what i was thinking alasdairm... I loved SOS: The Final Escape, a next gen update could be fantastic.

Talking of which... anyone remember the really harsh bit in SOS where you could take the lifeboat for yourself, screwing over your mates?

Fuck Ubisoft and their bullshit treatment of magazines and websites that don't kiss their asses. They're another company whose games I'll only buy used to make sure they never get a penny from me.

Hopefully in the end of the game it will all have been done via a virtual reality helmet

Sounds really good - I remember reading about that PS2 game, but I never had a PS2 therefore never played it.

I'm assuming this will uses an Ass Creed-style control method to aid you clambering over rubble and the like. Although how often to earthquakes hit Chicago? Wouldn't LA or San Fran have been a better location? Sunnier, too.

Might not be an Earthquake. You might have to escape from the hellish initial stages of Alone in the Dark. Gah...that really would be survival horror.

^ This.. And I dislike her personally. Part of this industry needs to mature if Ebert & co are ever to take us seriously.

Oh, fairly attractive female as a game developer. Shock bloody horror.

And people wonder why gamers are still seen as smelly spotty nerds.

Are you suggesting that grown men don't enjoy looking at pretty women? I know I certainly haven't grown tired of it yet at 31, and I rather hope I never do :).

Granted, a gaming site would probably not be my first stop when I need a fix of gorgeous, but I'm definately not one to complain if a few attractive pictures should happen to pop up while I'm reading an article about something more or less unrelated. I don't mind a quick distraction now and then.

Did anyone care who the producers on games were until Jade Raymond came along?

Speaking of games, didn't Dark Works make Cold Fear? That one wasn't too bad.

Given how she pretty much balsed up Assasins creed. Why the heck would it be a good thing to put her name on a project? I know that I'm not looking forward to playing anything she produces and I certainly know that no reviewer is going to be honest about her games. Just look at how they fawned over her when she demoed creed. It was kind of pathetic, especially as all the gamers looking in from the outside kept asking where the gameplay was. Turned out the gamers were spot on and the reviewers looked like idiotic school boys with a crush.

Loved Assasins creed, and I just can't get bored of looking at the gorgeous Jade.

Also like the sound of this title. No guns + no angsty nu-metal theme = me interested.

Ubisoft are doing good things these days. More power to 'em I say.

"I wish Jade Raymond would fuck off. Just what has she done to deserve the attention? I looked her up: she has zero good games to her name.
To be fair though, it's probably Ubisoft (spit) that are hawking her around the media like a cheap whore. "


Well she's quite attractive and has a habit of wearing rather-too-thin-and-tight tops under her 'professional' suits.

Whore?

We're all whores.

She doesn't have to do it if she doesn't want to or do it the way she does it if she doesn't want to ...

After being burnt by the spectacularly average and repetative Assassin's Creed, I won't be touching this crap with a barge pole.
Ubisoft's use and Raymond's willingness to be used as a stooge to stir up massively over hyped rubbish has really put me off.
