Clive Barker's Jericho (2007)
Sounds epic doesn’t it? Well it is epic! You get to play a variety of these black ops agents in what is best described as Gears of War meets Silent Hill on acid. It’s an endless assault from beginning to end and is powered by a great mythology laid out by Barker.

Alan Wake (2010)
Happy holidays from your friendly neighborhood Mutantville Players! This week, we thought we would try something different as a special Christmas treat for everyone. Instead of featuring a scary movie – we thought we would go with a scary video game – the scariest video game of 2010 in fact – Alan Wake for the XBOX 360.
Alan Wake tells the story of acclaimed horror writer Alan Wake and his trip to get away from it all in the secluded Northeastern town of Bright Falls. Alan Wake is quite simply the best horror game that I’ve played all year and I can’t wait to play through it again on a more difficult setting. I’ve talked about it enough already, you’re just going to have to take a look for yourself.
Matthew Ewald and Luis Machicao make miracles happen on the set of Athena.
The Mutantville Players are in a bit of downtime as we quietly put the finishing touches on G.H.O.S.T. to get it ready for the theaters and the eventual DVD release. In between the work we’re trying to relax as Brento is off to play gigs this weekend, Geo is tangoing to a studio near you and Streebo is playing Alan Wake on XBOX 360. We’ve collected a few cool vids for you to check out for fun, reviews and more – only on Fridays with MVP!

HORROR ON THE SILVER SCREEN!!!
The website for maestro of horror Dario Argento’s Dracula 3D is now officially in operation! Check out the website for the full synopsis, photos, and behind the scenes tidbits. With the popularity of violent vampire shows like True Blood on the rise – there should be a warm reception for Argento’s latest effort when it finally hits the screen.

According to the rumor mill – the new downloadable content from Call of Duty Black Ops will feature zombie in the legendary Area 51! Over the years, Area 51 has long been a favorite of conspiracy theorists who fantasize about UFOs, aliens and Nazis drilling their way to the Hollow Earth below – when in reality it’s probably just the spot where the military burns nuclear waste like a redneck burning plastic trash in his back yard. Well you’re about to find out what is going on when the new Black Ops content goes live!
Check out this great video featuring the amazing, surreal and sadomasochistic visual stylings from Clive Barker’s video game masterpiece - JERICHO. The video is in German – so you’re safe from too many spoilers – unless you speak German that is.

Streebo has been finding time to relax between shooting and producing G.H.O.S.T. by kicking back with Silent hill: Homecoming on the XBOX 360. This is the first Silent Hill game that I’ve been able to play for an extended period of time despite the fact that I’ve owned Silent Hill 1 through 3 over the years. The new controls make the game more user friendly for a geek like me that enjoys more action oriented games. Needless to say – the atmosphere and visuals rule the day in Silent Hill. I love the look, sound and feel of this game and find myself addicted to it. Enjoy some Silent hill craziness with me by watching this video featuring some of the more interesting villians of the series of games.
