SonicRetro members Dario FF, Twilightzoney, and Chimera are trying – for quite some time – to port Sonic Unleashed’s levels to the PC version of Sonic Generations. Today, the team showcased the fruits of their work as Sonic zips around locales like Mazuri, Empire City, Shamar, and the original Spagonia to name a few. The team has also managed to get collisions working on the stages, and they’ve been able to successfully import breakable objects and even the Global Illumination Ambiance lighting effects of the original stages so that they look like their original selves. Below you will find some new screenshots – as well as a new video footage – for it. Enjoy!

DC Douglas has created one of the best gaming parodies where Resident Evil 5’s main villain, Albert Wesker, talks to Mass Effect 3’s Legion. Although it seems quite simple, it’s all about the dialogue and the lines that were used. Especially when Legion tells Wesker that his ears were vaporized and that’s why he hasn’t heard about him returning to Resident Evil 6… now that was brilliant. Or what about Wesker’s reaction when Legion tells him that he knows about Junior? Hilarious. Enjoy! Continue reading This is perhaps one of the best gaming parodies: Albert Wesker talks to Legion→

Capcom has released the first episode of an animated short film for Street Fighter X Tekken. This first part shows some of the game’s characters and explains Shadoloo and Mishima Zaibatsu are fighting each other. It looks cool, but the animated short is only available in English. We strongly believe that there should be a Japanese version and hopefully Capcom will release one. In other news, Street Fighter x Tekken is slatted for a May 11th release. Enjoy!

YouTube’s member ‘Jonz66’ made an interesting comparison video between Project CARS and Shift 2. Jonz66 captured footage from the Bathurst track and we can immediately notice some differences between them. In Shift 2, players wre complaining about the cars ‘sliding’ and thankfully for them, this sliding effect is not present in pCARs. In addition, both the lighting and the shadowing system seems better in Project CARS. Shift 2 wins when it comes to environmental detail but we should keep in mind that Project CARS is still in pre-alpha stage. Continue reading Project CARS gets first comparison with Shift 2 and a new ‘night’ lighting demonstration→
