Sleeping Dogs Mission Walkthrough

Countries: , , , ,

Recently we gathered select members of the media and swept them off to Hong Kong for a special preview event. These lucky journalists had been flown half way around the world to see the brand new game from Square Enix, Sleeping Dogs.

While you’ll start to see their previews pop up online shortly, we thought we would give you an exciting glimpse of what’s to come by walking you through the action-packed mission “Mrs. Chu’s Revenge”. This is not for the fainthearted…

Mrs. Chu’s Revenge

You play as Wei, an undercover cop trying to infiltrate the Hong Kong triads. In this chapter of Wei’s story you start off in a Chinese restaurant owned by a distraught and saddened Mrs Chu. In the back of a grimy kitchen she sits hunched at a table, alone in the dark. A close relative has been murdered and she wants you to deliver her the man responsible.

E3 2011: Bodycount Is Back!

EnglishSelect a Language:

Countries: , , , ,

Bodycount is back and I’m here to divulge all the juicy intel. The Codemasters Guildford studio has been tightly clammed since last year’s E3 so you’d be forgiven for asking, what is Bodycount?

Bodycount is an adrenaline-inducing, explosive torrent of action, destruction and gun ecstasy. It’s an FPS that puts the fun back into firepower. But these words can barely do it justice, so here’s our brand new gameplay trailer from E3.

Right off the bat you can see the explosive boom-stick that is the shotgun, and it really sums up what Bodycount is. This isn’t just another shooter; this is a gun centrefold that gives you amazingly satisfying guns that you will never forget. The mantra in the team has been ‘gun, bullet, world’ – everything is focussed on the experience of squeezing the trigger, hearing bullets tear through the air and watching them obliterate enemies and the environment. Every gun has been carefully crafted for your gaming pleasure. Bodycount has everything from a deadly pistol all the way up to super-charged futuristic weaponry used by your elusive enemies, ‘The Target’.

Bullets, naturally, are never in short supply but it’s their effect in the world that completes this glorious firing feedback loop as you shred through enemies and the environment. Whether it’s wood, glass, body armour… it rips up and splinters as you unleash the pain on the world around you. It doesn’t just look cool and make you feel great, but it gives you the opportunity to rip through your enemies cover, and they in turn yours. It makes for an unstoppable river of pyrotechnics as you travel the globe you get to tear through warzones in Africa, city streets in Asia and mysterious bases as you hunt the ‘Target’ across the globe.

There’s only so much we can fit into one blog post, so this is where we hand the reins over to you. Have you got a question for the developers? Who are the ‘Target’? Perhaps you want to know what multiplayer modes are up for grabs? Whatever your question just put it into the comments and we’ll pick it up for a Community Q&A in the following weeks.

If you want to keep tabs on all things Bodycount don’t forget that you can find us on Facebook, twitter, and YouTube. You can even speak directly to the Games Director, Andy Wilson (@andygwilson) and Andrew Parsons our Experienced Level Designer (@AP_Codies) on twitter.

Operation Flashpoint: Red River Is Out Now!

Countries: , , , ,

We’ve got great news for you today! Red River is out now and you can pick it up from all your favourite retailers! To mark this momentous occasion we’ve this spectacular TV advert that shows Codemasters putting the everyday folks, like you and me, in the boots of a Marine!

We’ve strived to make Red River the closest experience you can get to being a marine without signing up. Whether you choose to hit the battlefield as a Grenadier, Scout, Rifleman or Automatic Rifleman, the drop-in / drop-out co-op makes sure that there’s plenty of fun to have. If you then want to break from the exhilarating campaign you can always immerse yourself in the 4 excellent FTE game modes.

  • Last Stand – Fight off hoards of enemies! The longer you and your friends hold ground, the more points you get. But don’t forget to bug out or you’ll just bag a big fat zero points!
  • CSAR – Combat Search and Rescue sets you in a Black Hawk Down style scenario. Find the downed pilots and escort them to safety, but watch your buddies backs, the PLA won’t be too pleased to see you!
  • Combat Sweep – This is clean and simple fun. Work with your team through a series of compounds clearing out enemy insurgents. Grab some friends and run through this as quickly and effectively as you can for a big time bonus! Clear orders are the key to success.
  • Rolling Thunder – Escort your convoy to safety watch out for IEDs, RPGs, and ambushes from insurgents. Make sure the convoy doesn’t stop for too long or you and your team will start losing points!

If you’re looking for some fearless Marines to recruit into your fireteam then head over to our co-op forums to meet other Red River fans and jump online.

If you’ve got a question about Red River, then just leave it in the comments and we’ll get on it.

F1 2011 Call For Questions

EnglishSelect a Language:

Countries: ,

It’s exciting times here at Codemasters as we’ve officially announced that F1 2011 will be coming to the PS3 on the 23rd September. Not only that, but we’ll be also developing F1 2011 for the NGP too.

PS3

F1 2010 marked the long awaited return of FORMULA ONE to consoles, and we we’re very proud to be awarded a BAFTA for our efforts, but we’re not letting that get to our heads and with your help we’re going to make F1 2011 even better.

We’re giving you the unique opportunity to play F1 2011 before anyone else. All you have to do is upload a clip to YouTube asking the developers a question. Maybe you want to know what improvements we’re going to make to the AI, or what new features we’re adding to make multiplayer even better. Whatever your question is, just send your YouTube link to our facebook page.

Your efforts won’t go unnoticed either. We will be hand-picking 20 lucky people and transporting them to our Birmingham, UK Studio. There you will get a studio tour, exclusive hands-on time with the game, and the opportunity to ask your question in person as part of our Developer Diaries.

So get your thinking caps on, and try to be as creative as you can!
