It drops next week
Square Enix has got the marketing bucks out big-time for this one; Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days' launch trailer may be a showy sequence of CGI, but, going by our hands-on with the game, it's a pretty good representation of the type of gritty action players can expect from the game.

Feature Late To The Party #2: Ridge Racer Type 4 on PSone
It's hard to go back to racing games
It's a genre that's constantly evolving. While two-dimensional platformers and puzzle games remain fairly time-less — racing games evolve.

News Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood Diary Puts Ubisoft Employees In Ridiculous Robes
This Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood developer's diary is supposed to give the game's narrative some context
