Sonic The Hedgehog is one of the most recognizable characters in gaming and despite it being years since his last hit video game, Sonic is still excited to celebrate his years of gaming fun.
Sonic Generations tries to bridge the early 2D Sega Genesis version of Sonic and the new 3D Sonic by bringing the two versions face to face thanks to a time-ripping monster.  The Sonics will explore several famous worlds from past Sonic games, taking on each stage from a side scrolling point of view as the original Sonic and in 3D with the new Sonic.  Each stage has some of the best fast paced excitement that Sonic games have been known for.  The set-pieces of each stage, like a race to outrun a monster semi-truck, make each level epic and unique.  If that wasn’t enough, Sonic Generations has one of the best soundtracks in video games to date.
Gamers who have been playing since Sega’s birth have been waiting for another truly good Sonic game and it’s finally here, with someone for old and new gamers to enjoy.
Sonic Generations is on Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and PC.

The story of Cole McGrath was just beginning when a simple package delivery gave him the ability to control and use electricity. Now that he knows his destiny is to stop the monster known as The Beast, he flees Empire City looking for a way to stop the creature.

You begin the game with all the powers you acquired in the original Infamous, as well as the ability to carry your decisions in from you previous game. Cole’s decisions have more weight in this game, as which of your female allies you side with grant you new powers and your good or evil karma will decide how the game ultimately ends. Infamous 2 really pumps up the action with huge fire fights between the different factions occupying New Marais and the characters that felt flat in Infamous now have a real personality that you truly care about.

It doesn’t matter if you missed the original, Infamous 2 is lot of fun and one of the best games for PS3.

Infamous 2 is available exclusively for Playstation 3.

If you haven’t played Portal 2, please ignore this post and go play it because you only got about a month before I start assuming everyone has played it and post hundreds of space-based pictures.  If you have played it, check out this music video about the greatest hero/villain aperture science has even spawned and remember the good times.

inFamous 2 was equal parts choosing to be hero or a slightly less nice hero and kicking bad guys with electricity.  This time you will have people encouraging you to be good or bad.  In the end, you are still helping people. It’s not like you go off for a vacation instead of stopping the gangs and villians ruling the city.

Infamous 2 comes out June 7th on Playstation 3.

The war against the Chimera is still waging and we are losing.  Despite Nathan Hale giving his life to defeat the Chimera, they have come back and pushed humankind to the brink of extinction. Check out the trailer:

Are you like me and see the above touchpad (the bit decorated with the shapes) and wonder what you could use a touchpad for when you can’t see it while playing?  Perhaps this demo of the game Little Deviants will led some light on the possibilities.  It allows you to push on the touchpad in order to push up the ground in the game and move objects around.  While this is only one possibility perhaps we will see new uses for it after the device is released.

Unsurprisingly it doesn’t take a lot to replica the patchwork feel of LittleBigPlanet in real life.

You know that bit of physics that keeps cars in one place. It’s called friction and when you turn it off it creates one of the most hilarious uses of the GTA4 engine I’ve ever seen.
