    It seems like I do this every seven days so here we go again.

    Another week, another sale on the Playstation Network. This week Ubisoft is offering over 30 games, each discounted up to 50% for PS Plus users. Regular member will get a 30% discount. There are some pretty good games on this list as well as some dogs so I will leave it up to your discerning eye to pick out which is which.

    Hint: Michael Jackson: The Experience is not among the good.

    Go and check out the full list of games and the other deals available to PS Plus member on the Official Playstation Blog.

  • TMNT Come ‘Out Of The Shadows’ This Summer

    One of the greatest days of my childhood was the day that I got Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Arcade Game for my NES. After pumping quarter after quarter of my mother’s hard earned money in the cabinet version, the mere fact I could spend as much time as I wanted at home bashing the Foot Clan to my heart’s content is one of those moments that make a childhood.

    Now Activision may be trying to recapture a bit of that innocence, before life took over and showed me how jaded and cynical I should be, with the release of TMNT: Out of the Shadows. All that has been released is the short trailer below, but it looks like a straight up brawler in the vein of The Arcade Game and starring the newest incarnation of TMNT seen on Nickelodeon. Get the Part Wagon ready!

    TMNT: Out of the Shadows releases this summer on Playstation Network and Xbox Live.

    original

     

    Another day, another great Playstation Network sale.

    Yesterday we told you about the Spend $50, Get $10 sale and now Sony is making sure you have a great reason to spend that $50 with their Gamers Choice Awards Sale. Playstation 3, Vita and PSP games that were voted on and won are discounted by 30% for PSN users and 50% for PS Plus subscribers. So if you have not picked up certain games that won many other awards (cough Journey cough) then now is the best time to do so.

    Seriously if you don’t download the entire The Walking Dead game for less than 10 bucks, you may have problems.

    Here is the rundown of what Sony is discounting:

    -Assassin’s Creed 3- $49.99 (PSN) $39.99 (PS+)

    -The Walking Dead Ep. 1-5 $13.99 (PSN) $9.79 (PS+)

    Some more good news for Playstation Network owners besides all of the free stuff you get if you are a PS Plus member. For one week only you can purchase the Twisted Metal Birthday Bundle, which has the four best Twisted Metal games available (Twisted Metal 1,2,Black and 2012’s version), for only $39.99.

    I know some of you are wondering where is Twisted Metal: Small Brawl and if you are actually wondering that then we can’t be friends.

    The games will be available separately to buy on PSN also.

    Now….where is my Carmageddon remake??!!

     

  • We Will Get To Play The Cave Sooner Than Expected

    TheCaveTitle

    One of the games I have anxiously been awaiting to play is The Cave, the new adventure game from Double Fine Studios and industry legend Ron Gilbert, who created [amazon_link id=”B00642R92A” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Monkey Island[/amazon_link]. Now the wait is almost over because it has been announced that The Cave will be released on January 22nd on the Nintendo eShop for Wii U and Playstation Network and January 23rd on Xbox Live.

    The Cave is a side-scrolling adventure where you pick three characters from a cast of seven (much like Maniac Mansion) and make your way through a magical cave using all three members of your party to solve the puzzles within.

    The Cave will cost 1200 MS Points or $14.99 depending on your platform.
