Too Much Awesome

“Will the Play Station Move continue to struggle and boggle down Sony’s progress? Or was 2010 simply a relapse year before the PS3 gets ready to blow our minds again? Only time will tell.” -Me, Last year. Well, the time has come. After a pretty uneventful 2010, with God of War 3 and Heavy Rain [...]

All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night, in the dusty recesses of their mind, wake in the day to find that it was vanity. But the dreamers of the day, are dangerous men, for they may act out their dream with open eyes, to make it possible. This. I did. T.E. [...]

Oh Insomniac Games, if only all developers were as motivated as you. You have delivered a new quality title every single year of the Play Station 3’s life cycle. Let’s count them. 2006: Resistance: Fall of Man 2007: Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction 2008: Resistance 2, AND the downloadable Ratchet and Clank Future: [...]

There are very few games out there that really get my gears turning and heart pumping like a good round of God of War, the epic tale of a one-Spartan-army and his rampage through the pantheon of Greek Mythology with the power of chain blades and quick time events. Praise him or condemn him, there [...]

Last week, this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo came and went, and with it launched an arsenal of gaming news and previews to show us just how busy our holiday season will be this year (very VERY busy). There is a lot to talk about, so that’s why I’m here to sort through it all; to [...]

However, if there was a video game character [...]

If anything unites gamers, it’s most certainly fanservice dished out in droves. Knowing this secret to instant success, Square-Enix brought the PSP a little title called Final Fantasy Dissidia, a strange fighter/RPG hybrid that consisted of characters from every numbered Final Fantasy title. Seeing as how it sold like Phoenix Down, Squeenix is back with [...]

It’s really a shame that we live in a current console generation where a game on one system can’t just be a good game, it has to fall on some imaginary scale based on other games in the same genre. Killzone 3 is at serious risk of being compared to other franchises that I don’t [...]

So guess what? Sony announced its latest portable gaming device roughly two weeks ago. I was just as surprised as you were. [Or weren’t.] For what could easily be the entire history of its existence, the handheld market has been inescapably monopolized and or dominated by Nintendo. I would know. I’ve grown up with it.

“The reason why Jump’s awesome all-star fighter games can never come over to the US is all due to copyright laws, or specifically, international copyright laws. While Jump owns the rights to all these series in Japan, they don’t all share a US publisher.” _Chris Pranger Chris makes a very good point here that I [...]
