Welcome back to The Forecast. It looks like next week will be a huge one for the Xbox 360, not only because Microsoft will FINALLY unveil its plans for the system at E3, but also because several notable titles will be coming out, including Red Faction Armageddon and Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters, with Duke Nukem, Alice: Madness Returns and Shadows of the Damned following shortly thereafter. For now, however, we do have one excellent game headed our way this week, Bethesda’s Hunted: The Demon’s Forge. In this cooperative action game, you take control of either E’lara, a ranged weapon expert, or Caddoc, a master swordsman, as they battle through dungeons filled with menacing enemies and dark secrets.
The game will feature solid co-op elements, both in combat and puzzle solving, and will also have a number of moves for each character to make them effective against enemies, even bigger ones that pose a threat. You can also work together to unleash powerful magic spells, turning the tables on your would-be attackers. We’ll be covering the review for this one later this week, so be sure to check back for all the details. See you next time on The Forecast!
