Revolution twosome

Two snippets from the burgeoning world of Revolution development. First up, Ubisoft has confirmed that it's working on Red Steel(click to go to the official site), a launch title for the console. Currently in development at the company's Paris office, it's a Yakuza mob adventure set in modern Japan, and featuring full support for the offbeat Revolution remote control - both to target and shoot your gun and wield a sword. Controversial screenshots of the game were printed in US videogame magazine, Game Informer, this month. More speculation/information here.

Elsewhere, a Polish developer named Nibris has just announced that it is developing a Revolution game entitled Sadness, which will feature only black and white graphics. The really quite incomprehensible press release explains, "Nibris are not following the trend created though Sin City, but rather a game which is set pre-World War". A fully monochrome adventure? We haven't seen anything like this since 3D Monster Maze!
