Sleeping Dogs Reception
As you may already know, Sleeping Dogs is an open world cop drama inspired by classic Hollywood and Asian cinema action style thrillers is set to launch August 14th. Based on recent events, Activision (the original publisher) who lost faith in the game and sold the rights to the game to Square Enix might be REALLY regretting their decision.
Given the fact that the game is very much like GTA and has traits very much like other games it was no surprise when Activision had written it off as a failure in the beginning. But United Front Games have really pulled through and have created a really solid and fun experience that seems

Halo 4 - Teabagging Returns
Well its official, in an interview with Kotaku, 343 Industries have confirmed that players once again will be able to crouch in Halo 4 with the same classic animation and posture.

When asked why they brought crouching back again they had this to say "[Yes players can victory-crouch others] if they choose

Halo 4 Forge Mode Info
Hey there Halo fans! I am pleased to tell you (if you already didn't know) that Forge World is going to be making a comeback in Halo 4. Better still is the fact that Forge is bigger and better than ever before with lots of improvements that are really going to make a difference.
To start off, this time around this multiplayer map editor is being developed by Certain Affinity. Since these guys were the developers behind Halo Combat Evolved Anniversary and the Halo Reach Map Pack, it is safe to say that they really know their stuff when it comes to Halo.
What I personally liked about their approach when developing this was that they really paid

Looks cool right? As you can see, the blue led that is supposed to be integrated instead of the green can be seen from this picture. The d-pad is also supposed to be the twist d-pad. Also notice how the controller is translucent.

Halo 4 Multiplayer News
New information has surfaced surrounding the much anticipated Xbox exclusive, Halo 4. To be more precise, the information is regarding a new requirement that needs to be fulfilled in order to play Halo 4's multiplayer.
It seems that Halo 4's multiplayer requires a total of 8 GB of free space for an install, either in the form of extra space in an Xbox 360 hard drive or an external flash drive. However, Microsoft highly recommends the in-built hard drive over the external as the former is supposed to provide a more "optimal experience". I am guessing the optimal experience means less lag and load times?
This basically means

Info Naughty Dog's New PS3 Game
Naughty Dog revealed a bit more info recently about their new IP, The Last of Us. They mentioned that there would be several ways of going about the game in terms of what you chose to do and when. For example, you can choose to sneak past a group of baddies or eliminate them all while risking your resources.
Naughty Dog also verified that even though players will have such options throughout the game (which will give it a sandboxy feel), the game will not have multiple endings. As such, you can play the game however you like but everyone will get the same ending.
Also, we had all been wondering whether we will get to play co-op
