Konami Announces NeverDead

Rebellion Entertainment's next great title.

One of the men behind a myriad of Metal Gear Solid titles and the studio behind Rogue Warrior and Shellshock 2: Blood Trails are teaming up to create a new IP set to be published by Konami. The game, NeverDead, which was announced earlier at Konami's E3 media briefing, appears to be a Devil May Cry-esque experience that will have you shooting and slicing demons in an infested present-day environment. 

No Caption Provided
The hook is that the lead character can't die--Rebellion and Shinta Nojiri are implementing something of a reverse Dead Space mechanic where the protagonist can reassemble his dismembered body parts after having been disassembled. Sounds delightful, right?

NeverDead is set to hit the Xbox 360 and PS3 at an unannounced time.

Like the entire Konami press event, this was epic.  Although this was less epic than most of the conference, which literally WON E3 for this year and every year going forwards.  It even won previous E3's, that is how epic it was.

It's amazing that some nerd pretending his head fell off was one of the least insane things to happen in that conference.

The guys behind Rouge Warrior and a shitty game no ones ever heard of? Wow! That'll be a fucking fantastic quick look! I hope the main character is as sweary as Demo Dick. Fuck!

I won't quite pass on this yet. Seems interesting enough, but i want gameplay or at least be able to see the main character from the front...

This game will automatically be 5 stars if you can add extra limbs to your body!

I didn't like Prince of Persia (2009) because you couldn't die, hopefully this hook won't ruin another game for me.

This could be fun.  Need to see a bit more and a demo though.
