Midway has released the Games Convention trailer for The Wheelman, the upcoming game based on the upcoming Vin Diesel movie of the same name. Though the game's announcement (story) did not specify target platforms, the trailer release specifically mentions the game heading to the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. The movie can be found on 3D Downloads, 3D Gamers, FileFront, Gamer's Hell, and Worthplaying.

JoWooD Productions announces Peacebreakers, an upcoming episodic mercenary-themed episodic action game from L'Art due to premiere in July 2007. The first screenshots and the GC movie from the game are online on 3D Gamers, and here's word:

PEACEBREAKERS is an ironic mercenary/military action game, with its own, unique features, storyline and style. Set in the very near future, you step in the shoes of a freaked out mercenary team, whose members each have their own abilities, equipment and a screw loose.

Delivered in episodic format, PEACEBREAKERS takes the "Episodic Content" seriously; adapting the concept seen in various TV series by focusing on a strong, crazy story-line, interesting and funny characters. Features include crazy vehicle modifications, fun and competitive mini games, TV-style into videos and cut-scenes and extensive multiplayer modes.

YOU'RE THE WARMAKER, YOU'RE THE PEACEBREAKER

The Captain Blood Product Section offers an updated release date for Akella's upcoming seafaring action/adventure game, reflecting a delay. The date was previously listed s Q4 2006, but this is now updated to read Q1 2007. Checking another page on the pirate calendar, narrows the Age of Pirates release from Q3 2006 to September 2006, while Playlogic also widens a release date, now offering the more general 2007 window for Prism: Threat Level Red in place of the previous more specific Q1 2007. Thanks Frans.

The site includes trailer and a new gameplay movie along with a half-dozen new screenshots. Thanks Frans.
