Ever since the launch of the PlayStation 3 and the inevitable delay of Gran Turismo 5 there has been a huge gaping hole in Sony's first party line up for racing games. Now that's all changed with the release this week of ModNation Racer's which was developed in Vancouver, Canada by United Front Games.
We all remember Sackboy and Little Big Planet the flagship game that brought the whole family together to "Create" levels together, "Play" levels together and finally to "Share" where they t...

On Thursday May 20th the Canadian media was invited out the ModNation Racer's launch event for a day of hands on time with the game and of course some Go Karting at the 401 Mini Indy in Toronto.
ModNation Racer's is developed by United Front Games who is located in Vancouver. The motto behind MNR is "Play, Create, and Share", you may remember a similar motto from another Sony title Little Big Planet.
The game looks great and the controls work really well. The typical premise of a racing ...

The Good
Awe Yeah, the combat is just fun
Stunning Visuals

My first exposure to the God of War franchise was when Sony released the re-mastered God of War Collection (God of War 1 & God of War 2) on 1 blu-ray disc including trophies. It was a great first exposure to the characters, story and game play. We all remember the ending of God of War 2 where Krato...

I can't believe my eyes the Xbox 360 outsells the Nintendo Wii? Seriously? I can't remember the last time this happened!.

* Xbox 360 - 422,000
* Wii - 397,900
* PlayStation 3 - 360,100

I'm a week behind here but for good reason, I'm sick. I've been battling this awful cold for a week now. Anyways it's that time of the month where the NPD group releases video game hardware and software sales. So how do December do? I think the industry did quite well and hopefully all of you got what accessories, games and hardware you were looking for.
How many Nintendo DS's do you all own? seriously over 3 million units last month while the PSP 3000 and PSP GO! did a combined 654 thousand un...
