Trailer:

Basically, this is a remake of Escape from Butcher Bay, along with a new 10-hour single player portion added which is Assault on Dark Athena. They've redone everything with new graphics on a new engine. Here's a first impression:

You skipped the most essential new feature about the game: online multiplayer.

Say what you want about the movie, but the original Riddick game is arguably the best movie-to-game adaptation ever made.

you are so right...this is one of the must have games for the Xbox and i can't wait for this one to come out. i think the movies are great...they just have a certain niche to them.

Completely agree.

Pitch Black Modeitch black arena full of grunts armed with little more than a flashlight and a gun, each looking for he-can-totally-see-in-the-dark Riddick. Kill Riddick and you're Riddick next round.

[Mooncat]

Looks uber cool - and it sees its available on the PS3 woot

May have to purchase this one (that said I dont get time currently to play)

So I may wait for it to come down in price

Still only 1/4 of the way into Force Unleashed

Im just pissed they didnt continue the films

 

[Moonloop]

The demo was very very short. But it was fun and I am still very excited for this game. That multiplayer trailer at the end looks awesome!!!

 

[Moonloop]

So today I got a call that this game would be in tomorrow afternoon at GameStop, a call from VIN DIESEL.......................but the game isn't listed to be out until April 7th. Even gamestop.com still says April 7th. I guess i'll call tomorrow and find out for sure.

Apparently it is not street dated, so it's out when it's out. Some GameStop employees on other boards have confirmed they have received it.
