Time to sizzle in this trailer for Free Realms.

Modern Warfare 2 to be “more of the same?”

This gets me to my main point. Is any one worried that Modern Warfare 2 will have the "Sophomore Slump?" And even if it does suffer from this, will it even matter? My prediction is that Infinity Ward won’t release ‘just another COD game,’ but it could be a very easy thing to do.

Brad Shoemaker: "My interest level in Sucker Punch’s next PS3 action game InFamous has been teetering between "looks sort of OK" and "looks completely awesome" since Sony began the game’s marketing campaign.

Whether on BioShock, Unreal Tournament 3, Gears of War or another game, you’ve seen the engine in action. Some think it’s the best game engine built to date, while others think it’s old and overused. Well, with the recent announcement of Crytek’s new CryEngine 3, Epic may need to watch its back, as there’s a new game engine in town and it’s sporting technology surpassing anything seen on the consoles yet.
