  What is up everybody!

  Haven't done one of these in a couple years.. I've been revisiting everything Mortal Kombat 9 has to offer because I had to replace my xbox hard drive which wasn't fun considering I had to beat Shao Kahn twice in story mode (probably the most punishing-yet-rewarding game experience I have ever dealt with besides the last level of Jedi Outcast). Since I normally play first person shooters like Halo Reach, MW3, BF3, etc, this was a great change of pace since I have never been a fan of fighting games until exploring most of Mortal Kombat's "kotent;" I haven't even scratched the surface. The challenge towers are also mostly challenging in a good way.. There is so much variety in this game that its unbeliable how much effort and creativity was placed in MK9.. Even the DLCs are worth checking out at 400 MS points per character (I believe there were 5 DLCs released).

  Even if you aren't a fan of fighting games, you will be impressed with MK9. If you haven't picked it up, I highly recommend it, just be sure to save up on controllers.. I'm not joking here; I accidently cracked my wireless controller during a heated fight with Shao Kahn (who is one of the cheapest bosses of all time, he drops it like its hammer-time) and shockingly it still works.

  Sonic is perhaps getting his game back (and finally!)

  Before I continue, I would like to show ya'll a comic strip from IGN's Cube Toons.

  
  

  Very funny. So, in short, SEGA has a reputation of putting the Sonic franchise into crappable scales and awful gameplay (as fun as Sonic Heroes was, the controls were annoying.) So far, two Sonic games are coming out this year (Sonic Chronicles and Sonic Unleashed.) From what I've seen, SEGA might be realizing a quality product is much better than a money product (the only reason why 2006's Sonic the Hedgehog was the family game of the year, despite the poor quality is mostly because of the large Sonic fanbase that has been built for so many years.) Now, Unleashed appears to be a simple Sonic game that many of us has been expecting because what good is a series when there is nothing but bad ideas. Of all the Sonic games, I think Sonic Chronicles will be better because if you didn't know, its a RPG and those go well. If you disagree with me, look how fun Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga was. They added a ton of new stuff that was flat out awesome (I could keep playing that game because there is always. If the new Sonic games turn out to be awesome, then maybe we'll respect SEGA for producing a memorable game.
