Rise of Nightmares Eurogamer Preview

Monday, August 22nd, 2011

Eurogamer have published an exclusive preview of Rise of Nightmares; the new Kinect horror title from AM1. That’s right, the team responsible for House of the Dead!

Some interesting things we have learned:

1) The game is NOT on-rails, this is a free-roaming, first-person action game
2) There is light-platforming and it’s NOT rubbish
3) A handy “I’m stuck” function has been added. Raise your hand to progress out of your predicament
4) Points of interest are highlighted with an icon which can be selected and jumped straight to

Click here to be taken straight to the feature.

We’re pretty excited for this game. Hopefully AM1 can deliver a great slab of shlock-horror!

Fan Scene: Hilariously Accurate Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 2D Fan Game

Sunday, August 21st, 2011

I’ve been unhealthily addicted to Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 this weekend. This is clearly a bad thing as the game is probably the worst in Sonic history. It’s even worse that I’m beginning to learn what bugs the game and compensate for it, making it look like there’s very little wrong with it when I’m playing. SEGA should have got me to market it.

Then I remembered a little fan game project a came across a little while back on the Sonic Retro forums. This is a 2D recreation of Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 and it’s scarily accurate. Check out some gameplay below:

If anyone wants to give this a go then the Wave Ocean demo is here and a Kingdom Valley demo is here. They’re both 1 stage demos, but if you’re a sucker for punishment (like me) then you may want to check them out.

Controls: Space to jump, C to bounce/light-dash/grind switch, arrows for movement.
