Get ready to be blown away by Red Dead Redemption

Red Dead Redemption

Get ready for one heckuva’ ride back to the Wild West.

Take everything you liked about Western movies and combine it with the engrossing gameplay of Grand Theft Auto IV and you’ll have Rockstar Games’ epic masterpiece, Red Dead Redemption.

There’s not a lot of games that come out in the market today that can really blow your socks off, games that make you pinch yourself because the said game you’re playing is so freaking awesome that you just have to pinch yourself just to know that you’re not dreaming. Metal Gear Solid on the PS One was the first and only game that did it to me, that’s until Red Dead Redemption came out for this generation.

Are you ready for another round?

Super Street Fighter IV

A new challenger has entered the ring.

For those of you who already own Street Fighter IV, trust me when I say that Capcom brought enough content to Super Street Fighter IV to warrant owners of the original game a purchase.

Yes, Super Street Fighter IV has more than enough new elements to it that Capcom could’ve called it Street Fighter V if they wanted. 10 new warriors are added to the already robust roster Street Fighter IV had that features eight returning fighters and two entirely new characters.

Returning to the ring are T. Hawk and Dee Jay from Super Street Fighter II, Adon, Cody and Guy from the Street Fighter Alpha series and Dudley, Ibuki and Mokoto from Street Fighter III. The two new additions to the franchise is a deadly taekwondo fighter named Juri and the interesting Turkish oil wrestler, Hakan.

Capcom also brought back the bonus stages that every Street Fighter fan loved.

Stand in the middle of some Heavy Rain

Heavy Rain

Gamers looking for one of the most engrossing games ever to grace the PS3 need to look no further.

SCEA’s Heavy Rain has arguably one of the most powerful and engaging storylines ever featured in a video game. Every single decision you make will dramatically affect how the game progresses, and mind you, these ”consequences” if you will, doesn’t just have an effect on how NPCs talk to you.

The decisions you make in Heavy Rain will affect how the story in ”your” game is told. An entire ”episode” may or may not occur throughout your playthrough in Heavy Rain, depending on what you did at some point in the game. Yes, the game ”adapts” to you, giving you an immersive experience never before felt in video games.

Mind you, there is no ”right or wrong” decisions to make here, no matter what your outcome is, the game progresses in such a way that it keeps track of your decisions and then ”adapts” accordingly. But the consequences of your ”decisions” affect the story so dramatically that it could even result to some key characters in the game to… well… die.

So I’d be careful of these ”decisions” if I were you.

You play as Ethan Mars as you go look for your son who is believed to have fallen victim to the mysterious Origami Killer. How far will you go to save someone important to you? Your answer will depend on how you play Heavy Rain and trust us, you’ll be spending a lot of time playing this one.

Play the Halo: Reach multiplayer beta now

Halo: Reach Multiplayer Beta

Have you played the Halo: Reach multiplayer beta?

If you haven’t, then you’ve been missing on a lot. For the uninitiated, Halo: Reach would be the latest and final installment of Bungie Software for the Halo universe before it ends its exclusivity to Microsoft and embraces console neutrality. Halo: Reach is scheduled to be released this fall.

With Halo: Reach still more than a couple of months away, Bungie Software was kind enough to open up the game’s online multiplayer feature early to let Halo fans experience the online features of the game before it releases this fall. The best part about this is it’s still on beta form so any suggestions you tell Bungie will let the team improve on the game before its release.

However, the Halo: Reach multiplayer beta is on a limited basis and will conclude on May 19 so you better get in now before Bungie closes its doors on the beta.
