My wife and I live in a one bedroom apartment that currently only has 1 TV. At current, I spend a good bit of my time in an effort to wrest control of the TV from her in order to game. Usually, that means I'm fighting against the evil menace of HGTV or the wedding advertisement channel also known as We TV. Even as we approach our 1 year anniversary, she continues to watch the wedding shows.
So it will be a nice change of pace when on October 19th, instead of trying to get her to turn off Backyard Rooms or Bridezilla, I'll be trying to get her to put down the Xbox controller so I can play some NHL 2011. Because it's a certainty that we'll be picking up Saw II: Flesh and Blood for the 360 on launch date. My wife is more addicted to the Saw franchise than she is to wedding shows or Regis and Kelly. And that's saying a lot.
KONAMI ANNOUNCES LAUNCH DATE AND UNVEILS NEW ART FOR SAW II: FLESH & BLOOD
KONAMI Releases Never-Before-Seen Game Character and Concept Art From the Latest in the Massively Popular Survival Horror Franchise, Set to Launch October 19th
KONAMI today announced that SAW II: Flesh & Blood will be available at retail stores nationwide on October 19 for Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system, just in time for the release of "Saw VII 3D", the seventh installment of the popular horror franchise from Lionsgate® and Twisted Pictures. KONAMI has released an all-new look at concept art from the game for those daring enough to enter Jigsaw's world. The images reveal newly created deadly traps that challenge the player to think fast under pressure. Zombie Studios Producer, John Williamson, shares the vision for the game, "Just the silhouette of the character in the trap had to make the viewer uncomfortable. You had to know instantly that something bad was going to happen to this person if you didn't get them out." A look at the intense and detailed environments were also revealed to show the mysterious, detailed levels one can expect in this year's release.
SAW II: Flesh & Blood threatens sanity with new stomach-twisting traps and puzzles, more visceral combat, and an all-new storyline that takes place between the first and second movies. Gamers take on the role of Detective Tapp's estranged son, Michael, who is trying to understand his father's death. As players navigate their way through Jigsaw's terrifying world, they will face mind-bending puzzles and must defend themselves against the minions Jigsaw has placed in their path. In order to escape Jigsaw's games, players must use their intelligence and desire to live in order to survive.
