After the extreme success of the original Sonic Mega Collection, a huge collection of some of Sonic’s greatest greatest games from the Genesis era.

Transformers Devastation (PS3)

Costume Quest (2010, PS3)
For a time, Double Fine was the Rodney Dangerfield of video game companies. They made video games that critics and long-time fans loved, yet the games failed to be financially successful. After Brutal Legend, Tim Schaffer made a dramatic change in direction for the company. From …
Smackdown vs Raw 2009 for Nintendo Wii

Darksiders II (PS3) game

Playstation 2
