Folks at E3 in Los Angeles are getting a sneak preview of the fifth title in the Hitman series from Danish developer IO Interactive. The assassin Agent 47 finds himself in a world of betrayal in the highly stylized 'Hitman: Absolution.' IO Interactive worked extra hard on this one, building the title from the ground up and incorporating their proprietary Glacier 2 technology. The single-player game is set to release in 2012 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 platforms sometime in 2012.
NBC Universal has announced a release date for Peter Jackson's "The Frighteners" on Blu-ray Disc. The 1996 film stars Michael J. Fox as architect Frank Bannister who turns into a "ghostbuster" after meeting ghosts in his unfinished house. Jackson produced, directed, and co-wrote the horror/comedy film that just about broke even at the box office.
