So much for trying to stay up-to-date. AninFAMOUS 2video was promised to the YouTube audience, I dunno, about half a year ago. Hard to believe…that they would continue to care after that long. The part about about waiting for a Storm’s Adventure video, that’s easy to believe. Sucker Punchnever fails to deliver solid gaming experiences on Sony platforms, so it would be redundant for me to tell you that the game rocks....
I don’t know if the PSP Skype thing is your scene, but if it is, you might want to look at this new headset. This new earclip and flexi-mic affair is a lot cooler looking than the attachement that makes you look like you’rebiting into an ice cream sandwichwhen talking. The major difference between this headset and the old one is that it sports a PSP remote control on its cord, allowing you to control your music and media playback if you’re able to manage to jam a PSP into your pocket....
Look at this drawing that Sega PR sent Jim along with his review copy ofSonic Colors. I’d say they pretty much nailed the guy except for one crucial detail: I have never once seen Jim Sterling near fruit of any kind. So close, and yet… Speaking of Jim, there’s a new Jimquisition and, f-ck it, he did it live. Plus, Kinect is remarkably cheap to produce, Carnage talked dismemberment inDead Space 2and lots more happened on 11/12/10....

Oh, and it totally has Ornstein & Smough figures, and is described as a “brutally hard exploration miniatures game for 1-4 players.” Steamforged promises a “fast setup and long reveal” concept that claims that it won’t take forever to actually start it up....
No, Xover doesn’t count You would think with the deluge ofMega Manmerchandise in recent months that the franchise was celebrating some kind of anniversary or whatever. Bandai is poised to releaseClassic Mega Manin its D-Arts figurine line, an expanded edition ofMega Man Official Complete Workswill be published soon, and the music ofMega Man 1–10was compiled into one giantRockcan. That’s not all! No less than five new albums are scheduled for the fall....
In Twisted Pixel’s new gameLocoCycle, you play as a sentient motorcycle named I.R.I.S. Very little about the title has been discussed so far, but the title will get its public debut at PAX Prime 2012 later this week. For now, we’ve got gameplay footage and a second video which shows the game’s voice cast. I’m not entirely sure what’s going on or why that person is being dragged, but the fact that they don’t (to my knowledge) explicitly explain who he is makes me laugh....

Announced in 2013 Back whenDeep Downwas announced in 2013 it gave us a real Souls vibe, but a lot of people feared that it would be another “me too” type project. Well, since Souls is ending soon with the second and final DLC of potentially the last Souls game, Capcom could, in its efforts to remain dormant with Deep Down, tap back into that market. If…the game ever comes out, that is....

That brings the list of playable characters up to 15 now, yet we still don’t know how some of the actual human characters are able to survive Superman punching them into space and then punching them back down into the ground....
Bayonettais soon to rape the face of Japan while we in the West have to wait until next year. That sucks, but whatdoesn’tsuck is this utterly ridiculous commercial. If you want to watch a cute Japanese girl get herself off over Bayonetta while a man barks incoherent nonsense in a needlessly authoritative tone, then you are going to really enjoy watching it. In other news,Bayonettahas been reviewed inFamitsuand given a 40/40 score....
