Talk about coming out of nowhere. Playlogic International’s Xbox 360-exclusive title Infernal: Hell’s Vengeance is available in stores right now. It’s a budget-priced ($39.99) prequel to the 2007 PC-only title Infernal. We’re guessing Hell’s Vengeance is capitalizing on what the original title did right — mindless action. Below the fold you can watch a launch trailer for the game featuring plenty of flames, violence and odd characters.

Have any of you picked this up yet? We’re set to the review the title, so consider it forthcoming. The original received above average scores. Most critics (this post made possible thanks to the poor man’s research tool, Wikipedia) thought it was a decent shooter that needed more polish. It’s certainly possible the kinks were ironed out for the sequel, so quit rolling your eyes. This thing could rock.

It’s being reported that Marvelous Entertainment is considering bringing its Wii games, including No More Heroes and Muramasa: The Demon Blade, to a console where they might get a tiny bit more appreciation, with ports to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

Marvelous gave huge support to the Wii with a wide range of games, but so far hasn’t been highly rewarded in the sales department. Now the publisher is looking toward the HD consoles — first with an all new game called Rainy Woods, and second with a selection of ported Wii games.
