That being said lets get down to some business.

I am having a hard time containing my excitement about Polish developer Flying Wild Hogs new game Hard Reset. With very little hype surrounding the game, and limited information it is hard to imagine that it is due to be released in September this year. Hard Reset is PC exclusive, and normally developers will pour at least a year of hype into new games before their release. The lack of community buzz, however, is not a comment on the games quality or superior development.
Currently there are a limited source of screenshots, one game play trailer, and one teaser trailer. Hard Reset is running a hard PR campaign that will only last the three months before its release in September.

The newly released trailer for Rage gives gamers an in depth look into the post-apocalyptic shooters amazing details and game play. The trailer begins with a quote from famous author Nathaniel Hawthorne, The fiend in his own shape is less hideous than when he rages in the breast of men. I found this to not only be incredibly true, but a great definition of where Rage is going to take gamers.
Rage immerses gamers into a post-apocalyptic world overrun by war and conflicting factions. The details of the game paint the world as a society with futuristic technology that has

It is nearly impossible to predict where the gaming industry is headed in the next ten years, let alone the next couple. Advancements that astonish the industry seem to get released every year, changing the way we play, and the way in which games are made.
Euclideon, an Australia based tech company, is developing a new way to map and design fully functioning game graphics. The traditional method includes building maps out of a large series polygons, which make the 3-D gaming environment. Euclideon, however, has found a way to convert polygons into point cloud data. This is a method of mapping 3-D objects with atoms instead of hard-edged polygons, making the detail on the gaming environment up to 100,000 times more detailed than polygon technology.
Being a small developer, Euclideon does not have the resources of big

Sony has recently bought the game developer Sucker Punch, who is behind the hit game inFamous. Sucker Punch, an independent studio has been consistently involved with game projects for Sony over the past ten years. Their recent acquisition by Sony reflects the positive relationship the two companies have built over the years.
Former employees of Microsoft founded Sucker Punch in 1997 as an independent game developer. They achieved early success with Sly Cooper, and the subsequent franchise that ensued for the Playstation 2 and Playstation 3. After passing the control of Sly Copper to Sanzaru Games, they dedicated their time to inFamous, which has had huge success with the

The popular gaming website IGN has recently posted a blog concerning the possibilities for a PS4 in 2012. The information comes from a Taiwanese manufacturer, who has allegedly leaked information that the Playstation 4 is on track to be available sometime in 2012. This information is tantalizing enough, but it gets better, much better. The Taiwanese source also boasts that the PS4 has a built in motion detection device, much like the Xbox Kinect. This takes the possibilities for Playstation gaming to whole new heights, and assuming that the rumors are valid, it is incredibly exciting news for the Playstation community.
The validity of this claim is debatable, but in the spirit of progressing the gaming industry, the addition of motion control to the PS4 would be an excellent new product. The Playstation already competes extremely well with

E3 2011 debuted some amazing new games, consoles, and accessories that are sure to be highly popular upon their respective releases. The line-up of companies that had booths was also stellar at this years convention, and some of the best combined the aesthetics of their booth with the prominence of their new products. The most prominent booth, in my opinion, was Nintendo for the depth of their new undertakings, and the awesome job they did designing their booth. With the announcement of the new Wii U console, and the new array of games, Nintendo was among the busiest of the booths. They had a full-day wait for people to play the new Wii U, denoting its immediate popularity, and the new Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword didnt hurt their appeal to the public, seeing as how the Zelda franchise is among the most popular in the gaming community.
Another company that had excellent taste and products
