New Gallery Area

Hey everyone!

Recently I got myself some exclusive access to press materials related to the gaming industry and while searching what's available I found some amazing ULTRA high res screenshots from game cinematics, in-game play, concept artwork, and logos.

Some of the images are simply astounding and I felt it would be nice if the members here at scifi-meshes.com benefited from my access. So, I created a gallery (found here) that will grant all members access to view and download artwork from upcoming "SCIFI" games.

Here are just a few I've posted (about 60 images just today):

  • Gears of War 2 (concept and in-game art)
  • StarGate Worlds (in game)
  • Dead Space (screenshots)
  • Halo Wars (in game)
  • Halo 3 - Recon (concept packaging)
That's just what I was able to find today. I would be happy to pull more materials from other SCIFI games if I know about them. So feel free to post a game title here and I'll see what I can dig up. Please note, some games are still being developed so there just isn't any content yet. However, there is alot.. so feel free to let me know what you'd like to see.

I would like to add that today is special. I usually won't flood the gallery with images. As I would rather member artwork show up at the top of the gallery.

Yes - All artwork that I post has been cleared for the public by the various studios.

Most artwork is as large as 3000 pixels wide.

My source just gives me the following: (no art yet - just a press release)

SEGA Europe Ltd. and SEGA of America, Inc. today revealed details of the highly anticipated squad-based first-person shooter video game, Aliens: Colonial Marines™. Licensed through an exclusive agreement with Twentieth Century Fox Licensing and Merchandising and developed by Gearbox Software, the game will be available on the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system and Windows-based PC in late 2008.

In Aliens: Colonial Marines, players are part of a United States Colonial Marine squad and must prepare to face an alien assault more intense and horrific than ever before. Driven by a compelling and original story penned by renowned writers Bradley Thompson and David Weddle Aliens: Colonial Marines will retain the atmospheric look and feel of the original films while leveraging next-generation technology to create an entirely new interactive Aliens experience.

Packing classic Aliens weaponry ranging from pulse rifles to flamethrowers as well as brand-new equipment and skills all within a squad-based combat system, players will become an elite United States Colonial Marine. Featuring claustrophobic environments, a brooding soundtrack, and a multitude of surprises and shocks, players will battle against menacing alien hordes in strikingly detailed levels that include the stark interiors of the abandoned Sulaco and unique environments created specifically for the game.

Aliens: Colonial Marines will feature a story driven single-player mode and an all-new four player co-op mode allowing players to share the chilling experience with three friends. In co-op mode, each player will assume the persona of a Colonial Marine and have a distinct role to play in the completion of every mission. Additionally, more multiplayer modes will be revealed later in the year that will complete the Aliens video game experience.

Since its 1979 debut, Alien and its three sequels have grossed more than $557 million worldwide, garnering numerous awards, including two Academy Awards®.

For more information, please visit ALIENS, for assets please visit Sega PressVault.

Sweet. I've been looking forward to hearing more about this game since I heard it would include 4 player co-op - Awesome.

I gave this site a favourable mention on Stargate Worlds, so that hopefully some foot traffic will head this way.

Thought it would be a good idea, so more ppl can see the great art work being submitted on this site, you never know maybe some may get some work from such plugs.
