Soul Sacrifice gets a new teaser, looks more and more like a Dark Souls/Demon's Souls game

A new teaser showing tidbits of gameplay has surfaced, and it Definitely looks strangely familiar.

Sony could be launching a third soul entry in the franchise, still it is unclear if this is a game in the same series, what we do know is that it'll be a PS Vita exclusive. Check out the video below:

PS Vita goes white, Crystal white to be exact

The Vita had a really bad start with sales, even worse than the 3DS, but now sales are just barely starting to increase. But it turns out that Sony is going white... Crystal white.

Check out the next Crystal White Playstation Vita, it is coming out in Japan on June 28th for a reasonable price. There's still no word on whether this will go stateside, but the system is still region free and people will more than likely demand it, plus this would be a great way to further campaign the new-gen system along with what the 3DS is doing.

Would you like a white colored Vita? Or is the original black good enough?

RUMOR: could Dead Space 3 be revealed at E3 this year?

EA has responded to Gameinformer and said said many big game announcements will be revealed such as Madden NFL, FIFA, Sim City, Medal of Honor, Need for Speed, and Deadspace for this years E3 press conference. Now, we're unclear if this will actually be Dead Space 3 or some other Extraction game. But a logo teaser was seen at Visceral's studio, and rumors have reported that the game would primarily take place on an ice planet (which now could've been a hint for Lost Planet 3). Either way, a new Dead Space game should be coming out before EA's deadline of March 2013, after that any Dead Space game would probably be helped by some other company.

Will this next Dead Space be the highly anticipated third game?

an Xbox 360 Subscription console for $99 is confirmed

An Xbox 360 for $99, via Subscription-based, has been officially confirmed. It is a 4GB console that comes with Kinect and also requires that you get a two year Xbox LIVE gold contract of $14.99 a month. More can be learned by This Coupon which is required when you go to buy it, in order to redeem the deal.

Could this be a hint at lesser priced consoles for the future? Or is that just an unlikely dream?

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 breaks pre-orderd record!!!

Amazon has revealed that day one pre-orders for Call of Duty: Black Ops II are ten times pre-order numbers of the original Black Ops on its first day of availability. In addition, pre-orders are also 30 percent higher than Modern Warfare 3's day one pre-order numbers.

Previously, Modern Warfare 3 set the Amazon record for most pre-ordered game of all-time. In fact, MW3 is among the top 20 pre-orders ever for Amazon, including non-game items like books and movies.
P.S.
Zombies will return, and we'll get to play as a female character!!!!!!

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 major world premiere today... Oh... My ... Crap!

Yes the rumors were true as the earth does spin, Call of Duty's next game is in fact Black Ops 2. But Treyarch's next game is a bit different from the first one that took place in the 1960's cold war, because this sequel takes place in 2025.

Yep, 2025, a huge leap for both Treyarch and Activision. While the game is obviously not a direct sequel, character Frank Woods from the first game does return as a really old war veteran. He actually narrates the video below. Apparently machine turns against man in this one, an overused plot, but still that a minor reveal from very small info.

Here is the vid:

So do you think this will truly be the uprising that Activision needs to bring something new other then the copy/paste stuff from the last four years? Or will this just be another clone? Also, will there be freaking Zombies in this one? Please let there be at least Zombies...

Playstation All-stars Battle Royale announced / Tom West impressed

That's right, and oh jeez. Playstation is making a game that is extremely similar to "Super Smash Bros." games, the difference? It is different!

This game has huge similarities with Nintendo's title, having all company-based characters beating the crap out of each other on a big open level that's unique and whatnot. But there are indeed striking differences, for example: pretty much all of Nintendo characters are E rated fighters at best, Sony however has multiple characters from all types of ratings (Kratos=M, Sackboy=E, Sly Cooper=T, etc.). Another difference is that this game, as far as we know, actually uses life bars instead of the hit point strategy in Smash Bros.. The background also constantly changes, now we aren't sure how this works exactly. The background can go from having Patapon's marching (like the picture above) to becoming a LittleBigPlanet forest world. It seems as though you can pick the actual level stage, like the one above being Hades underworld, and probably picking what backgrounds appear. Agian, nothing is for sure at this point.

Yeah it takes an idea from Nintendo, but all games basically take ideas from somewhere. And I am personally impressed with this game. I don't care if it's Nintendo, Playstation, or Xbox even, I just want to play my favorite characters and beat the crap out of others :D

Now here's a thought, will Xbox do something similar in the future?

So far the only characters revealed are Sweet Tooth, Fat Princess, Kratos, Helghan soldier, and Sly Cooper but many more will be revealed in the coming months. No release date for this game is confirmed?

What do you guys think? Is this a good idea to make a Playstation version of Smash Bros.? Or do you nitpick and believe that creativity is dead?
