Hi Gamers,

I am back with a few more reviews and newsbits for you all.



Bayonetta Review
*www.gamersmint.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/screenshot_2098860763_12368793352.jpg
Gamersmint Writes:What is common between God Hand, Okami and Madworld? Yes, these are great games…which YOU did not play. Shame on you! No matter how good a game Platinum Games (formerly known as Clover Studios) end up making, the poor chaps just don’t seem to catch a break.

Tekken 6 Review

*i47.tinypic.com/whiiy9.jpg

The legendary Tekken franchise makes its latest home console appearance as Tekken 6, a port of the updated arcade machine variant - Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion. A solid four years after its last iteration Tekken 5 was released on the PlayStation 2 system (not counting the HD PSN remake for PS3), Tekken 6 unbelievably contains an even bigger roster. But with this year already playing host to Street Fighter IV and the new contender BlazBlue, does it match up to the heavyweights?

Achievment Unlocked-Paid for DLC(Click Here)

*www.gamersmint.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/dlc-cover.jpg

It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that every new generation in gaming brings along more than just shiny new graphics. Genres rise and fall, consoles rise and fall, New IPs are born taking advantage of the unique offerings of the hardware of the generation, and old IPs get flashy new makeovers. And of course, there are new trends. Every innovation or idea spawns a new trend that goes along. The Nintendo Wii was a phenomenon, and the crappy titles that keep showing up to capitalize on its sales is a trend. The popularity of the cover system soared with Gears of War, and soon turned into a trend for third person shooters. Some trends, like the latter, move gaming forward by making what was once the USP a base standard.

Have fun guys!
