It's the game that everyone wanted, or at least thought they wanted
This is a Sonic The Hedgehog game designed in the classical mould that made the character an icon. There are no goofy sidekicks, no silly rock songs and most certainly no "dudebro" dialogue. The clue's in the title: it's Sonic The Hedgehog 4. Don't worry though, you...

News Test Drive Unlimited 2 Ferrari Trailer Is Like A Porn Movie
Do you like Ferraris? Atari does
Check out this trailer for Test Drive Unlimited 2 - the slow piano music, the sweeping shots of the car's body. It's sensual, erotic. It's also kinda dumb. We prefer these racing game trailers to have blistering drum and bass music and cars jumping over hills.

Review Toy Story 3 (PlayStation 3)
Heavy on fun, light on Move support
When the first Toy Story movie came out, it completely changed the way we look at our animated films, as it was the first feature length movie completely made using computer-generated 3D animation.

Review MySims SkyHeroes (PlayStation 3)
Disregarding the nonsensical plot about evil sky corporations and obvious plot-twists, MySims: Sky Heroes is essentially a generic kart racing game set in the sky
