I did a quick story about it on the Corner, then someone e-mailed me letting me know more info and the TRAILER is available here:

Watch the trailer. It will change your life.

That trailer kicks ass! Hopefully, though, Bruce's dialogue is pronounced with cinematic style and strength.

That trailer ruled! And I was elated to see it is coming on PS2!!

The only problem is that the CG Ash doesn't resemble him as closely as i'd like...

..but who cares, because it's Bruce!!

Yeah, they should've exaggerated the chin a little more. But the voice sells it, of course.

Did anybody play Evil Dead: Hail to the King on Playstation or Dreamcast? I heard it was pants.

That was great stuff! However, why is the linked to article ignoring the existence of the first "Evil Dead" game?

I was wondering that, as well. Seemed odd they would do that, but who knows why.

The first game was a lot of fun, once you got used to the controls. I'm sure with Vis working on it, it'll be lot easier to control.

The first Evil Dead game was a Resident Evil knock-off, correct (again, I haven't played it)? I can understand how that wouldn't work out. Well, if this game rips-off State of Emergency, I'll be damn happy. If there was something State of Emergency was missing, it was a good mission system and a story. Plop in Evil Dead and it could work out just fine.

I have Hail to the King, it is totally pants. It wanted to be a resident evil knock off. (same control scheme, pre-rendered backgrounds, limited ammo etc) but it had deadites on just about every screen that regened, sometimes before you even left the room. And, at least as far as I got there was nothing scary. So in conclusion, unless this new one is a major change, its not gunna be worth anything

Looks good, but then again, so did Hail To The King, and that was a turd. The title is ass as well. I think I will wait for the reviews of this one first.

Yep, I was burned badly by HttK. Will wait for reviews on this puppy.

From the screens, all I see is State of Emergency with Bruce Campbell's face penned to it. Ah well, if they can do it...
