Everything about this game was just as much WEIRD as it was bad, with the number of glitches outnumbering the number of rings, load times that were probably longer than most games on the PlayStation 2, and a bizarre storyline that found Sonic saving a human princess in some faraway land that was probably more suited for some canned Final Fantasy spin-off game. Sonic the Hedgehog was even more disappointing due to the fact that it directly followed the fan-favorite Sonic Adventure series and Sonic Heroes.

Dead Island: Riptide The first Dead Island seemed to be largely hit or miss with its gaming audience: either you loved the addictive quest-based gameplay and melee-heavy combat, or you wondered what the hell happened to the game that was first shown in that amazing debut trailer.

Haze Ah, Haze. Aliens Colonial Marines In 10 years from now, our children will be reading all sorts of articles that list Aliens: Colonial Marines as one of the worst games of all time.

After Jensen is critically injured during an attack on Sarif, his body undergoes painful augmentation that transforms him into a deadly weapon -- capable of more than an ordinary man. Deus Ex: Human Revolution will span the world and feature the futuristic metropolises of Shanghai, Montreal and Detroit. Human Revolution is set prior to the events of the original Deus Ex games, but will still feature an emphasis on player choice.
Players can upgrade and enhance Jensen's abilities in four different categories: stealth, social, hacking, and combat. The developers want to reward all play styles and give players the freedom to approach any situation in whatever way they choose.
The number of years that separate us from a future filled with biomechanical technology. The world we know is gone , replaced by the devastating aftermath of an asteroid impact. Fragments of humanity were meant to survive in pods called Arks, nestled underground. But sometimes, things don't go according to plan. Players take control of an Ark inhabitant that wakes to a world entirely alien. Mutants roam the wasteland and mankind clings to life.
In Rage , players must survive these harsh conditions using a variety of makeshift tools. Exploration and combat take place from a first-person perspective, but driving will also be an important feature when traveling long distances. Players can upgrade and modify their vehicle, as well as build up a custom inventory to fight back the creatures that inhabit the surface.
Rage is designed to keep the action smooth and beautiful, using the power of the id Tech 5 engine. Enemies will animate beautifully through the environment and keep players on their toes.
On November 18th, the iPhone version of Rage was released. It's short, but visually stunning. Almost nothing is known about the next installment in the Elder Scrolls series. The latest, coming November , takes place in the region of Skyrim. In northern Tamriel, Skyrim is a cold and snowy place and apparently home to werewolves.
Here's hoping Bethesda will take us to Throat of the World, the highest point in Skyrim and mythical birthplace of man. Our assumption is that gameplay will be similar to previous titles in the series -- an open-world game where your characters' skills are improved by his actions, not by spending experience points. In the past, the sidequests and exploration have proven far more interesting and time-consuming than following the main storyline. We'll see if Bethesda can give us something more interesting to do other than closing endless Oblivion Gates.
Provinces in Tamriel. Skyrim was the first settled by humans, the Nords. You're a monster , at least according to GLaDOS, a deranged artificial intelligence running the now dilapidated Aperture Science facility. Chell is armed with the now legendary portal gun, which can instantly create two connected portals on any flat surface. A number of other new gameplay mechanics have been added as well. But that was the easy part.
For every Zelda, a Thor. These are their shameful stories There is practically no end to the fast-paced sports action!
The activities may range from the mundane bowling, darts to the exotic hang gliding, scuba diving , but the controls inevitably boil down to the same boring button combinations. The nicest thing anyone had to say: "The Wii does shovelware better than anyone. Critics slammed the game for its lame combat, bland level design, and boring gameplay. Promised to be a game where decisions heavily affect outcomes, X-Men: Destiny fell flat in the end, suffering from poor controls and even worse production value.
A serious lack of quality software plagued the console for most of the year, up until we were treated with the excellent Skyward Sword in late November. Even at the company's E3 press conference, the Wii seemed to be just a footnote, further reinforcing the notion that Nintendo is ready to move on to the Wii U--even if you're not.
The 3DS launch This year was a double whammy for Nintendo. After much hype, the Nintendo 3DS launched in April with some pretty impressive technology, but unfortunately failed to present a game that achieved "must-buy" status. Every console launch needs a killer app, but the 3DS just didn't have one.
