Mark it on your calendars -- Konami has announced an October 19 launch for Saw II: Flesh and Blood for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Because one Saw game just wasn't enough.
Not surprisingly, the game hits shelves "just in time" for the release of the seventh (holy s**t!) Saw film, Saw VII 3D. To go along with the release date announcement, Konami has also release a slew of concept images for the title, which shows off some of the title's puzzle traps, including "The Crusher" and "The Rammer." The traps, unsurprisingly, are designed to make you crap your pants.
"Just the silhouette of the character in the trap had to make the viewer uncomfortable," said producer John Williamson. "You had to know instantly that something bad was going to happen to this person if you didn’t get them out."
Go on, take a gander. Scared yet?

the internet makes nothing shocking anymore.
I'm a fan of the series although some of the later movies are rather lacking, tbh. I also thought that Konami did a decent job with Saw. It was on par with Homecoming in certain aspects if not most, but then again that game was one of the worst in the Silent Hill series so that's not saying much.
If Saw 2 improves on the puzzles, traps, and combat system, plus keeps the achieves at a decent difficulty like the first game then I'll be checking this one out as well.
Haters gonna do what they do though.
I can comprehend it; it just isn't appealing to me.
The really scary thing is that the first movie got a sequel. I will never forget how my entire theater was laughing at the abysmal acting and ludicrous plot (only time I've ever experienced that).
One thing that NEEDS to happen, is the the people you find in the traps. If they die, then you dont get to save them again and this should affect the ending. Would make the saving of them mean something at least.
So many good game coming out in the next few weeks, I hate this time of year.
If the comment apply to you then disregard. I was actually mocking MRLN's comment.
@smang:
Another relevant and thought provoking comment. A wonderful contribution to the topic at hand, eh? I shouldn't have to baby sit you and tell you that you're the one who's hating here, little man.
@Themightylebeau2009:
That's possibly due to the fact that Homecoming was a far cry from the other games that we're used to in the series and Saw was a decent first attempt, more so since it's a movie based game.
If the comment *does not* apply to you then disregard.
Love not being able to edit a comment. /sarcasm. =/
But VII?
This one... this one's gonna be difficult.
I kinda want Saw after I read about it being based around puzzles and what not and not tapping O to unlock something.
As for the game, it was fun for what it was. It made me want to watch the 6th film after playing it.
