The HotSpot 07/14/2009

by Jonathan Downin in Games941 days ago

You can always count on the HotSpot to make Tuesdays just a little bit better.  The announcement of Command & Conquer 4 is causing too much excitement.  Red Alert 3 didn’t set the world on fire and that was just released less than a year ago, so unless C&C4 is pretty innovative it may not do too well. Microsoft’s Summer of Arcade initiative is covered here and the guys seem positive on this years releases.  Trials HD sounds like a very interesting game despite its clunky title.  Splosion Man also sounds like a ton of fun. ...

Max Payne 3 has been announced– and nobody is excited about it.  The first 2 were very good games so it is pretty surprising that nobody here has very fond memories of them.  The recent Mark Wahlberg driven movie certainly hasn’t done the franchise’s image any favors. Recent reports reveal that Sony has started charging publishers $.16 per gigabyte of download data on the PSN.  This is really bad news for everyone.  Expect to no longer get as many demos on PS3 as Xbox 360 and even less DLC.  Sony is already struggling up against...
