Heavy Rain is an experiment in game design that succeeds in new and exciting ways for gaming but is also plagued with some very unfortunate flaws. It’s not a game in the typical sense as players have only some control over a characters actual movement. The game consists of small exploration segments, quicktime events and some walking around. It doesn’t sound like an exciting game, or even much of a game at all, but don’t brush it off just yet. It’s the way the game uses these simple mechanics to weave a story about murder and emotion that will hook you in. An interactive movie would be one way of describing it. Does Quantic Dream’s new title succeed in shaping a new hybrid of cinema in video games, or is this game all talk and no action?

Sega has announced a new Sonic game called Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I. It will be a sidescroller, but instead of sprites (like Sonic Rush) there will be 3D models. Sega has said that it will be a direct sequel to Sonic 3 & Knuckles on the Genesis. Sonic will be the only playable character and various classic Sonic features will return; such as the spin-dash.
The game will be released on the PS3, Wii and Xbox 360 as DLC. Glad to see that retro gaming is still coming on strong. Used to love the Sonic series but did not like the 3D versions all too much. Except for the Dreamcast game which was fun.

Engage! Star Trek Online is the highly anticipated entry of the Star Trek franchise into the Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game genre. The game has been in a state of development flux for many years. The game was first announced back in 2004, to be developed by Perpetual Entertainment. However, in 2008, Perpetual filed for bankruptcy, and the license and art assets were sold to Cryptic Studios. The first closed beta began in late 2009, and the open beta began on January 12, 2010. The open beta closed on January 26, 2010, and all those who pre-ordered had the ability to get a head start in the game, beginning on January 29. The game launched February 2, 2010. This is a preview, so all details may have changed between the time of writing (January 28) and the release, and will certainly change after release.

When the original Bioshock was released in 2007, no one could have expected the level of praise it was destined to receive. Heralded as one of the best single player experiences in gaming history, the game left some awfully big shoes that would need to be filled with a sequel. Losing some of the talent that helped shaped the original also didn’t do any favors to the already high level of skepticism.
People questioned the need for more after the original story had done such a fantastic job of introducing the world and characters of Rapture while both starting and finishing the story. Like it or not, more Bioshock is here and you’ve been thrown back into Rapture. Does this much maligned sequel manage to silence the critics? Or does it sink under all the pressure?

Gamesradar.com has released a bunch of classic PC games for free. Check it out.
"We like free stuff. That’s why we posted links to download and play 365 free games so you could have a decent game to play for every day of the year, free of charge. Unfortunately, GamesRadar has yet to wrestle the most formidable type of free games into submission so that they can be preserved in their proper list form for eternity. We’re talking about the free games that were good enough to sell, important enough to review, and memorable enough to warrant a second play through years later.
Luckily, we’ve somehow managed to sort through over a hundred previously-for-sale titles that you can now play for free, and synthesized our list down to just the essential games you’d still want to play. Most of them look dated, for sure, but whether you’re looking for some decent side-scrolling action, nostalgic hits from the golden age of adventure, classic titles of interest, or even MMORPGs, you’re bound to find something in the following pages."

The VS. Series returns in an all-new battle!
Heroes from the anime powerhouse Tatsunoku and legendary Capcom franchises clash for the first time in the ultimate tag-team fighting game!
Alpha here and it's been a long time since I was on the site. Now that I got my novel done, onto video games and books. Anyways, this game has been a game I've been waiting for to be ported here in the United States. It was actually thought to never be here because of all the licensing issues when it comes to the United States viewership of Tatsunoku franchises but thanks to both Capcom and Tatsunoku, this game was able to be ported here and I am enjoying it to the point that this game is so far my first perfect star game for the year. So if you like the VS. Series like I do, my review will be shown right after the jump.

Mass Effect is one of my all time favorite games. BioWare created a universe full of action, intrigue and epic battles that made it one fo the best games ever made, RPG or otherwise. The absolutely powerhouse ending left gamers wanting more and anticipating its sequel. Last week gamers everywhere were able to jump back into that universe with the release of Mass Effect 2. The question on everyone’s mind was would this game be able to live up to the high standard of its predecessor?
