Masem1's Recently Played Tracks Game NewsFlower, a downloadable title for the PS3 from thatgamecompany follows up on their previous flOw game, making it less a game with objectives and more an experience to relax with. It’s a very simple game to learn, and won’t take much time to complete, but it’s a game to take in its beauty, visual [...]

I’ve heard people say that MotorStorm is going to be the system seller for the PS3. Unfortunately, I really beg to differ, so far, despite it being one of the two better games for the system to date (along with Resistance: Fall of Man). The concept is sound: dirt/mud racing in the mesa valleys of [...]

Well, let’s say, it’s a Sonic game (more in line with Sonic Adventures as you have a main area where you talk to people and get your missions), but… the graphical power is rather unimpressive (there’s non-negliable slow down in parts of the main area!)
Add to the fact that when you are actually running fast, [...]

Man, this game is a button-mashing fest. There’s almost no skill in it, yet, beyond making sure to upgrade your armor at save points. Plus for a PS3 game, the camera control is poor and the graphics are rather bland. I have a hard time classify this even as an RPG despite it having some [...]

Being one of the few console-exclusive games for the release of the Playstation 3, Resistance: Fall of Man, created by Insomniac Games, was heralded as one of the top titles for the system. While the game graphical flexes the muscle of the new console, the game itself falls flat, providing a somewhat above average [...]

Ok, I’m starting to like this game a bit better, but it still has, as best as I can call it, timing problems.
The story is somewhat engaging – imaging that instead of the Axis starting WWII, that instead some alien parasite took over Russia and much of Eastern Europe, converting humans into their own foot [...]

Got my PS3 without major incident and set up without major problems. The short USB cord was somewhat of a problem, but it was helpful I had a USB hub as well as a keyboard for entry of all the details for the PS network.
So I had basically the only 3 ‘unique’ games to [...]

In light of the issues with the PS3 and Gamestop/EB Games getting less than fewer numbers than expected, I was a bit concerned about being about get a PS3 on release day. Thankfully, today I got the call that I’m in the alloted numbers, so I’ll have my PS3 by Friday, which is rather good [...]

Gamestop and EBGames cannot expect to meet even reduced numbers for first day PS3 pre-orders
Looks like Sony can’t even make 400k units by launch date, which is really sad. From 2 million at launch mid-summer to this, Sony is doing a great job of this entire launch.
Unfortunately for me, I’m #9 of 16 at my [...]
