Dynasty Warriors 7, why?

This year, Dynasty Warriors 7 will be released on the Xbox 360 & PS3. I can't really say ''part 7 in the series'' because every part has its own expansion-like games like Empires which adds some modes like character creation (sometimes it's already there in the orginal). But what is up with this franchise? Why does it sell every time? Does it ever improve? I will give you a little preview of part 7 and some experiences with the older games of the franchise and why it is losing its magic.

inFamous 2, the hype got me

inFamous, the game that surprised me, electrified me (wauw, didn't see that one coming did ya?), gave me the chills (ok, I'll stop) and really let me play it for hours and hours! The story surprised me, though there are divided opinions about that. It was released in the time that Prototype was released and people couldn't stop themselves from comparing the two. I'm not gonna make an article about a comparison between the two, I'll just conclude right away that inFamous was way more awesome! Not only were the characters fun, but the plot kinda screwed with my mind. I wanted more! And so, after a while, inFamous 2 was announced. What to think of it?

HD remakes, do we hate em or love em?



It all started with....



The last couple months, there have been a couple sounds from the Sony base speaking of HD remakes from older SD games, like PS2 games. Last year, it started for me with the HD remake of the first two God of War games. The resolution was raised, trophies were added and it played on a constant 60fps. After it was received pretty well by the audience, Sony started thinking about other games like Sly Cooper, Prince of Persia, Ico & Shadow of the Colossus. The Sly Cooper HD and Prince of Persia HD trilogies have already been released, with 3D support. Which will follow? What should we make from it? Is it a way to purely cash in some dollars, or do they really consider the nostalgic feelings of gamers?
