Battlefield 3 at E3
So at E3 on Monday, Electronic Arts held their press conference. Amongst their announcements of games like Mass Effect, Madden, and FIFA, there was one game that I really wanted to set my eyes upon, Battlefield 3. And I was looking forward to the live streaming of the trailer and the gameplay and having high expectations. And thankfully, EA lived up to its words and didn't disappoint me at all.

Evil Ambassador Copiozo's thoughts on LA Noire.
LA Noire takes you back to 1947 Los Angeles, the second War has ended and you're Cole Phelps, a new cop with a decorated war record trying to right the wrongs of his past and then-present time LA. He starts out from the bottom and work his way to the top.
This is not your typical Rockstar game. And frankly, I love that. A breath of fresh air of stealing cars and running over pedestrians to make a faster path to whatever GTA-esque crime event you have to do. Being a boy in blue means you have to behave well. So that means

Evil Ambassador Copiozo's Thoughts on upcoming Green Lantern video game.
You know, it seems that the best movies out there these days are usually ones based on nerd stuff that I like like video games and comic books....with a few titles we wish that didn't get on the big screen (coughcoughFantastic Fourcoughcough). While they are huge hits and are part of my vast DVD library, the best movies nearly almost make the worst video games. This is usually to generate more cash for the movie (the term "cash-in" is used for this

Modern Warfare 3 promotional news sends chilling forecast of game's setting.
There is some creative yet chilling marketing by Activision on promoting Modern Warfare 3(can be seen here). When you preorder the game at Gamestop you receive a two sided poster where one side is the game's logo and the other is a mock up TIME magazine front cover depicting New York at the time of Modern Warfare 3.

The next installment in the Call of Duty series seems to be getting closer.
So looks like things are picking up for Activision and Infinity Ward, as they released a statement (you can find it here on Kotaku) that the next installment in the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare series will be pushing the envelope when it comes to what people expect. So knowing the series, they're going to go beyond the Michael Bay-like explosions and second-by-second action-filled storyline events, which is awesome.
The storyline is what I'm really fixated on. A lot of people call the

Focus on "Sonic Generations" and the Sonic the Hedgehog Series.
It's hard to believe it's been TWENTY YEARS since Sega introduced Sonic the Hedgehog andhis fast-paced action to the video game audience of the 1990s and began a long-running rivalry with a plumber named Mario (though now they're best friends via racing, brawling, and sports). Sega decided to celebrate those twenty great years by teaming up the Sonic of my years (the shorter-legged Genesis version) with the Sonic of today (the one you see in Sonic 4 and in Smash Bros. Brawl).
In Sonic generations, both generations of Sonic the Hedgehog will team up and run themselves through rebuilt HD versions of old classic levels and modern

Brink has been in and out of the media for quite some time. I don't think people really know what to make of it. The developers' diary reveals a game that wants to be a little bit of everything. Splash Damage refers to it as a genre bending title and I can see why. Brink has a little bit of Mirror's Edge, it has some Team Fortress 2, and it definitely has some SOCOM elements to it as well. The developers say it breaks apart the barrier between a single player game and a multiplayer one, but what does that mean exactly?
Hyperbole aside. Brink appears to be a squad based shooter with a cool and unique art style that's almost a love child between Borderlands and Team Fortress 2. I like it, I dig the way it looks, but with the new Call of Duty map pack, will we have time to get invested? Brink definitely offers more complexity then what you find in other FPSes. It's a class based shooter that can become dangerously addictive. Everything you play under
