Here is some awesome new footage of Mass Effect 2 that is around four minutes long and includes commentary from the developers! I must warn that there are some minor spoilers, but if you have been watching every video since E3 then it should not be a problem.

As of now June has been a pretty good month, with a few heavy hitters to come in the remaining days of the month.
July is the month when the gaming industry usually slows down a bit, and a lot fewer games come out.
As per usual, July is not a big month this year either. I actually had trouble getting more than 10 games on the list of “good games coming out”. Actually, I didn’t even manage that, since some are doubles that will go in the multi-platform section, and I got a good part of the releases for the list from Japan.
Needless to say, the list this month is a bit lackluster.
As always, games with (JAPAN) next to their names are japanese games, and we’ll start with the multi-platform games this time.

Well, anyone who bought inFAMOUS got access to the Uncharted 2 beta. Heck, I wouldn’t be surprised if some people bought inFAMOUS just for the beta code.
So after playing quite a few matches, I think I can talk about it a bit.
Read on then!

If you’ve been following E3… at least for today… well, you’ve without a doubt learned about Natal(if you don’t, click this link), Microsoft’s new technology that might change the way games are played, or the home entertainment industry in general.
It features a bunch of motion sensors, a camera and microphone. It captures your movements to instantly translate them in-game, using both the camera and motion detectors. It also features a bunch of fun little features like voice and face recognition and a bunch of other random stuff. And all of that without having to use a controller. At all.
Basically, it has a ton of features and things it can do. So, I was basically wondering how it will really influence the gaming world.
So, read on to see what I think about this.

Originally developed by pretty much unknown developer Ride On, Nippon Ichi America brings us Yuusha no Kuse ni Namaikida, which was renamed “Holy Invasion of Privacy, Badman! What did I do to deserve this?”. The fun 8-bit-looking graphics and the random title reminiscent of oldschool Batman reeled me in, and the possibly fun gameplay and concept (being the bad guy trying to kill heroes) made me quite interested.
This is Ride On’s third game. The first was a Darius port on GBA, and the other was a Beat ‘em Up featuring maids with guns(from the Simple 2000 series). Their track record is short and not very inspiring, but Yuusha no Kuse ni Namaikida definitely looks interesting.
So with an english demo out (there was a demo before on the japanese PSN), we can see if it’s actually any good.

Well, the idea of Rock Band without instruments pretty much put this off of my radar completely. The demo coming surprised me, so I took a gander.
Can a dumbed-down version without instruments still be any good? Well, you might be surprised by the answer!

April has been a relatively lame month in gaming, and there’s really not much interesting in the remaining days of the month.
Instead, let’s get hyped for next month!
With a few interesting releases… Well, it could be a fun month, we’ll see. For now, let’s look at the releases for each system!
The multi-platform games are at the bottom of the list, and the japanese import games will have (JAPAN) written next to the titles.
And slightly bigger boxart sizes for the more interesting games O_O

There it is. The time of the month where I look to the future and see what games are coming in the next month.
Well, as of now March was a fine month, and still has a few noteworthy releases coming. Will April stand up to the pretty good releases of March?
Well, not really. There’s not much of note coming out, but I still squeezed out a few releases for the list.
Check it out! As always, all the multi-platform releases are at the bottom, and if I missed something just tell me in the comments! And if it’s a japanese game you’ll see (IN JAPAN) written next to the title of the game.
