Yet Another Creative Platformer Coming To The Wii

The Wii has defiantly been picking up speed with its WiiWare releases, and it doesn't plan on stopping anytime soon.
Dream Box Games just showed off its first trailer for their game, RoBox.

I'm really digging the game's art style, it seems like a mix of Machinarium and Braid, both of which are fantastic games. Apart from RoBox's art, the gameplay also looks like a ton of fun. I'm glad to see that developers are finally getting to put more quality games on Nintendo's WiiWare channel, and I hope that it's going to keep going like this for a while.

Mega Man 10 Endless Mode Is Still Not In Sight

Although Mega Man 10 came out today, there seems to be something "missing". Endless mode, a level of Mega Man that...has no end... is going to be offered as additional DLC on April 26.

I have yet to experience Mega Man 10, but from playing several hours of Mega Man 9 and not beating a single level, I'm not sure if I want to get Mega Man 10. Although Mega Man 10 will be offering an "Easy Mode" to allow some fresh blood into the Mega Man fan base.
The Endless Mode DLC is going to cost $3, which isn't much, but considering how hard Mega Man 10 will be, I'm not sure anyone would want to go through that knowing they can't win. Come to think of it, its starting to sound like a circle of hell from Dante's Inferno, "Play Mega Man 10...FOREVER!!!"
Yeah, no thanks, I'll pass that good sir.


P.S. I have nothing against Mega Man and I love the series very much. I'm just really really bad at Mega Man games :)

Project Needlemouse is offically Sonic 4!

Over the past couple months we have been speculating what kind of new Sonic game Sega would make out of Project Needlemouse, and now we know!

Sonic 4 is going back to Sonic's original roots with high speed 2D style platforming. The main differnce this time around however, is that Sonic 4's release is going to be cut up into several episodes. That's right, episodic Sonic.
At first I didn't see any good reason as to why putting Sonic 4 into individual episodes would be a good idea, but after some thought, it's starting to make a lot of sense.

Because Sonic 4 is going to a download game on XBLA, PSN, and WiiWare it's going to be competing with many other "quick game fix" titles. Cutting Sonic 4 into different episodes allows for quicker/shorter gameplay periods, but it also makes sure the player doesn't get too bored with Sonic's simplistic gameplay. I for one am looking forward to see what Sonic 4 has to offer, and I hope this is a new beginning for the Sonic franchise as a whole.
