Poor Decision from Sony on PS3 Pricing Sony Not Dropping Price Of Older PS3s I think Sony is making a big mistake here. Generally, when you release a “slimmed” down version of your console the previous models go down in price. Ahead of the Holiday season and prior to the launch of a new console from a competitor, I don’t see how anyone can see this move from Sony as anything other than a mistake. … Continue reading

The art style is truly gorgeous and really holds to the the Miyazaki / Studio Ghibli style. The animation may not be able … Continue reading

Original Post from James Schumacher: The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing trailer I’ve had my eye on this upcoming PSN game for a little while now. An alpha gameplay trailer has just appeared on the GameFreaks site with something akin to Diablo in a sort of Victorian setting with Vampire mythos-style characters. Reminds me of the original Vampire the Masquerade fro Nihilistic Software, with a faster pace. Here’s an excerpt from the article: “Neocore Games … Continue reading
Just started playing Saints Row 3 aka Saints Row the Third and this game is simply pure ridiculous fun. Though the Saints Row soundtrack is not as ambitious in scope as the Grand Theft Auto series, the musical selection is still impressive and varied. Saints Row as a series has always done it’s own thing and I appreciate that. Of particular note is the nice 80s and 90s selection which makes up the bulk of … Continue reading

Now, normally I don’t like to rely on hints or cheats of any kind when I make my first run at the game. I consider a first play-through to be the best way to experience a game to its fullest. If it’s an open-world game it depends on how much I enjoy as to whether or not I go for a “full exploration” pass. Once I have completed a game, it’s then time to go … Continue reading
Arkham City Impressions I spent a few hours with Arkham City this evening. I have to say that I can definitely see where all the positive hype is coming from. As I discussed in the preview article, Arkham Asylum was a bit of a surprise. There wasn’t much to complain about with the first game and from my initial play-time it feels as though they have been able to improve on virtually everything somehow. I … Continue reading
Batman Arkham Asylum was, to say the least, a surprise smash hit, earning a lot of Game of the Year praise in 2009. Comic book games have a spotty history, particularly outside of the arcade, and Batman games in the past never strayed from that trend with many of them being downright awful. Arkham Asylum combined stealth along with action-adventure elements, true to the Dark Knight’s style. The story was quality (thanks to veteran writer … Continue reading
