When I think of Aliens vs. Predator, I think of a battle between two alien species who are on completely different sides of the spectrum. On one hand, you have the Aliens, with their unmatched superiority in numbers, speed, and ferocity. On the other hand, Predators are the perfect assassin. They can camouflage themselves while using various vision modes in order to pick out their opponent from its surroundings. It seems like no matter what, they always seem to be pitted against one another, and it usually makes for an entertaining experience.
That is, until the epic battle between Aliens & Predator made its way to the Xbox 360, PS3, & PC.
Earlier this month, SEGA revealed they are working on another Sonic game, this time focusing on Sonic’s classic gameplay elements that we all grew up loving. Even though it seems this will be the definitive Sonic game fans have been waiting years for, Sonic fans still can’t help but feel caution given how promising previous Sonic games looked, only to not live up to expectations.
It seems we could all breathe a little sigh of relief as the SEGA Community Manager ‘RubyEclipse’ revealed on the official SEGA forums the original Senior Level Designer for Sonic 3 is working on Sonic 4.
So, is it just Dimps? Just Sonic Team? The answer is a bit of both: Yes, Dimps is working on the game. But there’s actually more to it than just that: at the same time, we also have members of Sonic Team, including the original senior level designer from Sonic 3 & Knuckles on the SEGA Genesis working alongside them. It is most definitely a partnership, and the result of this teamwork is something many of us are excited for.
So it seems SEGA is putting all of their efforts into Sonic 4, which hopefully will be something beneficial for the gaming community as we’ve all become extremely jaded when it comes to new Sonic games. Although, it looks like Sonic 4 could finally break the streak of bad Sonic games if all goes according to plan.
The Japanese sure love their karaoke. And Yakuza being a Japanese game will show you how they do it. Obnoxiously carrying a tune while at the same time heating up the women, Kazuma Kiryu entertains us all!
And for those whoa aren’t familiar with Yakuza 3, a demo is now up on the PlayStation store. Banzai! Don’t know why, but I must finish all my Japanese posts with that closure. Banzai!!!
SEGA officially announced the next sequel in the Sonic the Hedgehog series with Sonic the Hedgehog 4. The first trailer for the game was revealed on GameSpot last night and it’s very telling. Sonic the Hedgehog 4 is dropping the 2D sprite graphics for a more HD-friendly 3D look, but it looks like it will keep the gameplay elements that we all know and love.
The title is set to be released this summer on the Xbox LIVE Arcade, Playstation Network, and WiiWare as a downloadable title. ’Episode 1′ in the title leads us to believe SEGA has future DLC plans for Sonic the Hedgehog 4 for future episodes in the series.
For those of you fortunate enough to play Yakuza, whether it was an import or PS2 title, you know just how good Yakuza plays. While many say it’s a Japanese GTA, or Shenmue done PS3, everyone says Yakuza 3 coming to the US after only being a Japanese title is huge news. Release date of March 2010 is what I have it penciled in for. Anyway here are the screenshots, where you’ll see the Japan crime family in action. You can thank Sega for this…
SEGA announced today they’ll be bringing Yakuza 3 to North America this March. Yakuza 3 was released in Japan in Feb. 2009 to much praise by reviewers, so I’m excited to hear it will be heading our way soon! Let’s just hope SEGA decides to keep the Japanese audio and offer subs as there can be a lot lost in translation since the game has such a heavy Japanese setting.

Teaser Site Alert!, Sega has dropped a new site found here, teasing us with balls. From the pic above, you can see it’s a number dispensing machine. Yet, when you click on the handle, all you get are the same numbers over and over. “042020″ in a color scheme of “purple, green, red, blue, purple, yellow”, does this in any way spell Sonic.
If you’re a fan of party games, Let’s Tap for the Wii is a bit space consuming but an original concept nonetheless. You’ll need a box or an object that will allow sound to travel through to get started. So get those tissue boxes, cereal boxes and tupper ware containers handy. Just make sure to get 4 of them for your friends and family but don’t Tap that Box too hard, she’ll break you know!
A quick tutorial guides you how to place your Wii controller upside down “A” button side down. Yo then are shown how to navigate through a couple of menu’s using the single tap and how to select an option with the double tap. And if you can’t master the menu by tapping pick up the Wii-mote and using the d-pad or sensor bar navigate that way as well. That’s the gist of it, so let’s get a Tap’n.
