Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale a reality

Sony revealed the Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale. A four-way battle royal with all your favorite Playstation characters. Just think Super Smash Bros. but with playable characters like Kratos, Sweet Tooth, Fat Princess, even Parappa the Rapper.

At this point the game looks like a lot of fun. When I first saw gameplay footage of this four player brawl I was expecting people to actually fly off the screen, but with stages having walls on the side, it never happened. It's really just Smash Bros. but for Sony. No other way to describe it.

There is only a handful of playable characters revealed so I'm pretty curious to who will make it to the full roster. My bet will have to be on Crash Bandicoot. If he doesn't make it, shame on you Sony, shame on you.

How about you guys? What Playstation character to do you want to see in this game?

Diablo 3 TV Spot reminds viewers that Evil is returning

Blizzard just released a TV spot reminding the world that Evil is coming and what's left of your social life will disappear. The video is short but enough to get you excited for Diablo 3.

Evil returns on May 15 for PC and Mac. Yes, I'm definitely hyped for this game. I've bought the digital version of the game and have already downloaded the installer. All that's left is for May 15 to hit.

Weekend, what are you playing?

Last week for April. There will be some big titles to get excited about again next month. To name a few - We got Max Payne 3, Dragon's Dogma, and of course the overly hyped Diablo 3.It's the weekend once again and you know the question we just love to ask - What are you playing?

Quash: Still playing Star Wars: The Old Republic but I hardly play now. I was right - One month is enough for this game. I'm one level away from the max level(level 50) and I'm not excited one bit to ding for the last time. I got 15 days to go and when that's up, my Star Wars career will end. It was fun while it lasted but I have no intention to invest any more time on this game.

Last friday I played something new for once. When The Walking Dead Game Episode 1 hit the PSN store, I bought it right away thanks to the extra money left in my PSN account. it was only $5 bucks for the first episode and it was actually worth every penny. If you're a fan of the comics or the series, you'll appreciate what Telltale is doing with this 5-part series. I'll have a full review of the first episode titled "A new Day" up in a few days but for now lets just say 5 bucks is a steal for this story driven game. The PSN store is also having a sale with The Walking Dead Game - If you buy the season pass now for $20 bucks, you get to own all five episodes when they all get release. It saves you $5. I was thinking about it, but I don't mind buying it one by one since we don't have any ETA at the moment for the next episodes.

Migoy: I took a day off from work because my cousins were coming over for the weekend. We spent almost two straight days playing video games, watching shows/movies and eating unhealthy food but mostly playing video games. The majority of this whole weekend gaming sessions was spent playing multiplayer games, obviously.

We went through 4 of Capcom's VS games and Street Fighter x Tekken. Those 4 games were (in chronological order) Marvel Super Heroes vs Street Fighter, Marvel vs Capcom, Marvel vs Capcom 2, and finally Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3. UMvC3 got first dibs since its the newest one then we went all the way down to MvSF, then to MvC, then to the PSN version of MvC2. It was nice seeing how the series developed into what it is today. Too bad the PS1 versions of MvSF and MvC didn't let you tag.

After that it was on to two of my favorite PS1 games, Bust A Groove and Bust A Groove 2. I didn't have all the characters unlocked in both games but we made due with the default guys. It wasn't fair to my cousins since I know all of the songs by heart and know when exactly do perform an attack to take away their solos. Moving on it was another fighting game that took the stands, Soul Calibur V. Again it wasn't fair to them since I knew how to do a few basic combos with some characters while forgot everything about what we played of Soul Calibur II back in the day. When in doubt, kick low. Did the intro mission of Mega Man X4 for kicks and died to Cyber Peacock using Zero, played the WWE All Stars demo, had an adrenalin fueled blast with Motorstorm: Pacific Rift. By that time my cousins had to go home.

I had the Sunday all to myself. Played a little bit of the WiiWare version of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney and a bit more of UMvC3, 1 mission of Mobile Suit Gundam 0079 M.S. Front, the first cup of Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing, wussed out after just 4mins of Calling, still stuck in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, almost 30mins of Arc Rise Fantasia which by the way has terrible voice acting that's so bad it's not even funny, a few stages of Boom Blox and Boom Blox Bash Party, the first area of Cabela's Survival: Shadows of Katmai, and unlocked Colombo and Hustle Kong in Bust A Groove 2.

For my final entry for this post, this is sort of a technicallity since I played it at 6am Monday morning (04/30/2012). That game was Chrono Cross. Why is it so easy to blow 3 straight hours of play here compared to most games of this generation? I swear, me getting through even just an hour of play time in most modern games feels like an eternity compared to running around Guldove and Termina talking to useless NPCs for kicks.

For those that can't get enough of Skyrim

I've been a huge fan of Freddiew's videos and his latest one pretty much captures what most people really tend to do when playing a game like Skyrim. Arrow to the knee? Not for this guy.

As usual, Freddiew never fails to impress.

Debut trailer for a new game called Reset

A new game is in the works on an unknown studio called Theory Interactive. What's the game? It's called Reset, a First Person Shooter Puzzler that gives you the ability to use time travel in order to solve the game's puzzles. Color me excited. After watching the trailer it instantly reminded me of Portal. Which is good since we do need more amazing games just like that. Below is the debut trailer of Reset and is all generated from the in-game engine, pretty impressive.

No other information yet about this game aside from its existence and this Debut Trailer. The studio hasn't even hit the alpha stages of development so  it's going to take a while before we see any solid gameplay. But I'm definitely going to keep an eye on Reset. If you want to see more about this project head over to Reset's official blog site.

Reset will be available on the PC.
