In my continuing effort to post more articles per month, here is my 6th article… not including that one I posted on SMS before… oh and don’t worry, I’ll give SMS a proper announcement on the anniversary post which will most likely be the next entry.

It was quite awhile ago now, but when the first concept art for “Epic Mickey” was revealed, a lot of people got VERY excited. And how could they not? It wasn’t like anything you would associate with Mickey Mouse… at least not the Mickey we know these days. It was dark, foreboding and very well presented. There were those who believed this art style would go far… until they saw the screenshots which weren’t quite as amazing as the concept art…

Of course, we can’t really talk more about a game that hasn’t even come out yet, so onto the games that have already been released…

From the title, I know that YOU know which game I’ll be talking about in this article, but I assure you that this won’t be a one game entry. There are a lot of other games out there that aim for a cinematic experience other than Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, though most are nowhere near as effective as what Naughty Dog has pulled off with their PlayStation 3 exclusive.

As the technology used for video games advances, developers gain the abilities to add cinematic elements to their games. There is no single method for this and each game, depending on the developers chosen style, go about this concept in many different ways.

I’m about to have a huge epic co-op game of Resident Evil 5 with Jeff in about an hour so I thought this would be a good time to talk about my favourite Resident Evil game and how, even in its ported form on Wii, it still manages to impress after all these years.

Originally released on the GameCube in 2005 and ported to the PS2, PC, as well as to mobile phones (lol) and Wii. This game has been around, though for good reason. It’s a great game and Capcom obviously wants to milk as much from it as they can. Even with all of these different versions floating around, the undisputed definitive version is the Wii edition.
