GB: "Sony is in a mess. 2011, so far, has been nothing short of a nightmare for them.Their online service, PlayStation Network recently got hacked, and was down for a MONTH. Nobody could play any games online, and as if that wasn’t bad enough, all PSN users’ credit card information was at risk.

Mortal Kombat – CFD! Review
Sage Knox from CFD takes a look at the revival of classic Fighting Franchise.
The success of Mortal Kombat ultimately lies within the fighting mechanics. Instead of relying on the overly complicated combinations and insane frame counting of other fighting games, a player can survive the story mode and hold his own against other average players by learning a few key combos and attacks for each character. As with any skill-based game, the more time someone spends to learn a specific character’s tendencies and moves, the greater proficiency they’ll have against other players.Read full story

Games.On.Net 2 Minute Review: Hunted: The Demon's Forge (Xbox 360)
One of the biigger video games blog games.on.net says: Hunted: The Demon’s Forge does exactly what it sets out to do, which is to capture the spirit of action-packed dungeon crawls in a way all the reference sheets and miniature orc figurines in the world can't. Combat is well-paced, visceral, and unrelenting. Ranged and melee are equally enjoyable, although a tendency of the melee AI to stand in your line of fire may give sword-and-board hounds an advantage.
Graphically the game is let down by a somewhat generic fantasy design, which a hint of South American aesthetic can't rescue. On an HD monitor some minor jaggies showed up in high contrast situations, but a really laudable number of detailed textures made for some nice eye candy....

E3 2011 Press Conferences: Are we excited?
SchollA from consolecontrollus.com writes: Choo Choo All Aboard! Last chance to jump on the hype train!!! The train we come to know as the Superbowl of Gaming- E3.
E3 is upon us and all I got to say is that I’m not as excited anymore as I used to be. Don’t get me wrong I’m still anticipating E3 but just not as excited. Partly because of last years debacle. I felt no one had a strong showing, nah I take that back Nintendo’s conference was pretty good- they did what they had to do (and they might just make it two years in a row). However overall E3 did not deliver. The other part of the equation is I like so many others bought into the hype, (my fault) various sites breaking news left and right about what games will or won’t be shown- Uncharted...
