Yesterday, we posted an interview from EA’s spring showcase in London with executive producer Steve Papoutsis on Dead Space 2.

Today, you can watch a video of him talking a bit more about the javelin gun in the game.

It sounds rather interesting, although painful – which is a good thing when dealing with Necromorphs in our opinion.

Dead Space 2 is slated for 2011. Hit the jump to watch the video, courtesy of VisoGames.

Some footage from the canceled console version of The Witcher has surfaced over on YouTube, and it really makes you ache for what could have been.

In response to the footage dug up by CD Action, CD Projekt admitted its authenticity, but said that it not was made by the firm.

When looking at the film, one of the developers on The Witcher 2, said that it looks to have been recorded long “before freezing” Rise of the White Wolf, and looks to be part of a test used to check the game’s mechanics.

Still, for something that wasn’t close to being finished, it looks rather smashing. Hopefully, it’s still being considered.

Watch it for yourself below the break.

Thanks, Tymon.
