The release date has not yet been officially decided on but it will be some time late in this year. This game, which is developed by Media Molecule, is a sequel to a game which many people loved.

Here is a preview that was given to the game:

“So Little Big Planet 2, which Evans and Healey revealed at the event (in pre alpha form), is not a major departure from its predecessor – no “reboots” here. Rather than revamp the first game, Media Molecule is building on the Little Big Planet foundation, making the Little a bit bigger. Sackboy’s still here, as are the stickers and the Popit level creation interface. Little Big Planet 2 will even maintain backward compatibility with all those Little Big Planet 1 levels – in fact, they’ll look just a tad crisper and shinier with Little Big Planet 2’s refined graphics engine.”

Be sure to check this game out again a little later on when there are more details about it as the release date gets closer.

As of right now, there are not many details as you could easily figure out. However, here is what Jeremy Dunham, the Zipper community manager, had to say so far:

“A militant revolutionary has unexpectedly seized control in an important South Asian country. As the Ops Com, your mission is to command an elite five-man squad charged with stopping his aggressive agenda before it’s too late. In only six days, you must lead your team through a hostile jungle and urban environments against an army of well-armed rebel insurgents that completely outnumber you. We’re still fully committed to supporting MAG for a long, long time, and the addition of another game in our lineup doesn’t change that.”

For all of you SOCOM fans, what do you hope to find in the next part of this franchise? Are you excited?

Apparently, in a Japanese newspaper, it was announced that there is going to be ten games coming out for you to play with the PlayStation 3 motion controller this year.

Most of you are probably wondering as to what kind of games are going to be coming out. It was revealed that there will be sport games and pet raising games to come out in Japan.

At the current moment, Sony is not telling any information to the public at all. They most likely have a plan for reporting the game titles that will release with the motion controller to the United States. However, it will probably be a while before Sony announces it though.

One of the only pieces of information that is known to the public about the motion controller is that it is going to be releasing by the end of 2010. Which kind of games do you want to see release for the motion controller? Do you think you will go out and get the motion controller when it releases?

There will be a lot of huge games coming out this year that are going to be very successful. With titles being released for the Xbox 360, the Wii, the PlayStation 3, the PlayStation Portable and the Nintendo DS, the year of 2010 is likely to be filled with great new titles.

There are many prospected games that a lot of people are looking forward to playing. Games will be released for the Nintendo DS, PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Portable, Wii and Xbox 360.

The games that a lot of people have been anticipating are as follows:

  • God of War III

  • Super Mario Galaxy 2
  • Rock Band 3
  • Star Craft II: Wings of Liberty

I think that the year of 2010 is going to be a big year for the gaming world. The competition between companies and developers just continues to grow which eventually leads to the release of more games and other various money spending opportunities.

Be sure to keep a look out for any new information on these games or when they will be released. Which games are you looking forward to the most in the year of 2010?

Best Action Game – Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
Best Fighting Game – Blaz Blue: Calamity Trigger
Best Music Game – DJ Hero
Best Puzzle Game – Critter Crunch
Best Racing Game – Need for Speed: Shift
Best Role- Playing Game – Demon’s Soul
Best Shooter Game – Killzone
Best Sports Game – FIFA Soccer 10
Award for Visual Excellence – Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
Best Story – Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
Best Multiplayer Game – Infamous
Best PlayStation 2 Game – Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
Best PlayStation Story Game – Ar Tonelico 2: Melody of Meta Falica
PlayStation 3 Game of the Year – Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

The PlayStation 3 had a very good year. There was a pretty good stream of high quality releases for the whole year. Something that helped the PlayStation 3 have such a successful year was the price drop that it took. The price drop helped the PlayStation 3 be sold more which eventually lead to higher sales of the games. Also, there were many third party publishers that came out with some decent games too. Do you agree with these “best” games?

]]> http://ltngamers.com/12/20/ps3-best-of-2009-awards/feed/ 0 November Hardware and Software Sales http://ltngamers.com/12/10/november-hardware-and-software-sales/ http://ltngamers.com/12/10/november-hardware-and-software-sales/#comments Fri, 11 Dec 2009 04:37:43 +0000 LTNChica http://ltngamers.com/?p=403 The following are the hardware sales from the month of November:
  • DS — 1.70M
  • Wii — 1.26M
  • Xbox 360 — 819,500
  • PlayStation 3 — 710,400
  • PSP — 293,900
  • PlayStation 2 — 203,100

Because of the Christmas season, I think that the hardware sales are going to steadily increase for a little while as there are probably a lot of kids with these consoles on their Christmas list.

“All hardware systems realized an increase over October but one would expect that from seasonality alone,” said Group analyst Anita Frazier. “More positive economic news combined with ‘frugal fatigue’ could positively impact industry sales during these last weeks of the holiday season.”
Here are the software sales from the month of November:

  1. 360 – Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Activision, 4.20M
  2. PS3 – Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Activision, 1.87M
  3. Wii – New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Nintendo, 1.39M
  4. 360 – Assassin’s Creed II, Ubisoft, 794,700
  5. 360 – Left 4 Dead 2, Electronic Arts, 744,000
  6. Wii – Wii Sports Resort, Nintendo, 720,200
  7. Wii – Wii Fit Plus, Nintendo, 679,000
  8. PS3 – Assassin’ Creed II, Ubisoft, 448,400
  9. 360 – Dragon Age: Origins, Electronic Arts, 362,100
  10. Wii – Mario Kart w/ Wheel, Nintendo, 315,000

It comes as no surprise to any one which game was going to come out on top.

“While this year’s top-selling item bested last year’s by 283%, it couldn’t make up for softness elsewhere,” said Frazier. “The top 50 games this year sold 5% less units than did the top 50 last year.”
