Dead Space Intenses
Nick Earl, head of Visceral Games, has explained Dead Space’s new intensity of gameplay to IGN. It brings up memories of Resident Evil 4’s departure from the “Survival Horror” to “Action Horror” genre.
"I can tell you that we're a little more focused on action horror as opposed to survival horror.” Nick Earl said.
Nick Earl also said the game is going to blow expectations in terms of the game’s environment and interactivity. Could this be a challenge to the massive Mass Effect 2, also set in space?

It's been 16 years since Sonic 3, and after several 3D spin offs that has brought credibility to Sega's mascot to an all time low, Sonic 4 is coming to the PS3, Wii and 360 as downloadable content.
A trailer has been released, giving a brief history lesson of Sonic's 2D glory days and finishing with a 3D Sonic racing through a loop collecting rings in the Green Hill Zone on a 2D plane.The game is going to be released this Summer 2010... However it is yet to be confirmed for an Australian release date.
Its going to be episodic, as you can tell by the title, and Sonic will be the only playable character. Going back to the old ways may signal Sega's realisation that Sonic is not built for the 3D world.
PS3 games website, PSX Extreme, comments on rival games website, Computer and Video Games, on how two magazines have broken the game's embargo date, which allegedly breaks on February 10.
Heavy Rain is a spiritual sequel to Fahrenheit - > its defining feature is the impact the player can make on future events based on their actions in the present.
A quick look on Wikipedia shows 3 reviews for Heavy Rain, two giving it a 9/10 and GamesMaster (a UK games magazine) giving it 91%
An embargo date signals the time video game reporters can divulge once (before the date) secret information about a game to the public.
Divulging how positive the game is can possibly allude to dealings to get the game as much good publicity before its release (on February 25 in Australia).
Does PSX Extreme agree with a positive rating to the game? Read on February 10 to find out!

Gamer Verdict
I wouldn't be surprised if you get to play a existing survivor in Rapture that hasn't gone crazy this time. It would be a good concept to flesh out the intriguing backstory to the first game.
