Looks like in the newest issue of Nintendo Power a new Sonic game is going to be revealed, at least that is what the cover story supposedly says. Looks like Sonic is coming to the Wii in Sonic & The Black Knight, a first look to be revealed in this months Nintendo Power.
I possibly call shenanigans on this one. Why would you give Sonic a sword? Sonic never had weapons, its like giving Mario a shotgun! Although the Wii motion sensing would make sense for sword swinging purposes I think choosing Sonic is a bad move. What do you think? Real or fake?
Ok so Sony wont exactly get achievements, but they are looking at instituting Trophies for PS3 games, most likely you will see these on the first party titles first.
According to our PS3forum industry insider, Sony will be releasing Firmware 2.4 sometime in June around the launch of Metal Gear Solid 4. Also mentioned is that the new Firmware 2.4 will include some of the first PlayStation Trophies. *Note that these will be the 2D trophies found on the XMB and not the 3D trophies coming in Home later this year.
A lot of gamers are looking forward to this feature as you can track what you have done in certain titles, I know for cross platform games the achievements on the Xbox 360 push them over the edge to get the MS version rather than the PS3 version. Couple this with HOME coming later this year and some in game XMB and the PSN is shaping up quite nicely, just hope it isn’t too late for Sony to come roaring back into the race.

There was quite a bit of uproar when gamers found out once they started to play RockBand that the only online option for them would be pick up games with friends. The World Tour Option was no where to be found online, which this editor was a bit surprised by since that is the essence of RockBand really. You create a band make some money and get some fans, why make this only an offline thing?
Well rumors are flying fast and furious that perhaps in a few months there will be a patch to RockBand allowing for the full experience. Stay tuned and we will let you know if this is true and when you can expect it. What do you guys think, worth patching and putting in or are you having enough fun with RockBand as is to care less?
