The PS2 classics will make their debut in glorious HD later this year.
Insomniac Games has decided to just come on out and confirm what we pretty much already knew – that a Ratchet & Clank HD collection is on its way to the PlayStation 3. The announcement was made by Ted Price via the Official PlayStation Blog and kicks off the Ratchet & Clank 10th Anniversary Celebration.
South Park RPG and unnamed next gen title affected
Joystiq has reported that Obsidian Entertainment was struck by layoffs this week, affecting staff across the board. As a result, staff currently developing the South Park RPG were let go, and an unnamed next gen project was canceled.
Fans successfully fund the cult classic's sequel.
UPDATE: In just two short days, the project has been officially backed, easily surpassing the $900,000 goal initially set by inXile. Currently the team is sitting at $980k, just short of a cool million; with 32 more days to go it's likely the project will accumulate much more. The story from 3/13/2012 can be found below.
Additional features including Move support will be included.
House of the Dead 4 was originally released in Japanese Arcades in 2005. Now in 2012, the light gun shooter is finally seeing a home console release. Get ready for some old school reflex shooting as the title's release date has finally been set. Coming April 17, the title will release on the PlayStation 3 via the PlayStation Network for $9.99.
***WARNING: Minutes 5-8 of this podcast contain some MAJOR Mass Effect 3 spoilers!****
Remember last week when I said I didn't care about Mass Effect 3? I was wrong. Controversy has arisen over the game's endings, and said controversy is enough to make me care about the game, at least to a meager extent. If you're inclined to not know anything about the story and/or endings for Mass Effect 3, skip over a few minutes of the podcast, but be sure to listen to the rest! Why? Because there's Dillon's Rolling Western opinions, tons of Kid Icarus: Uprising information, a Club Nintendo update, more controversy with Tekken X Street Fighter and Sonic 4 Episode 2, and more!

Club Nintendo members among those eligible for free cards.
Pit makes his long awaited return to the spotlight later this month in Kid Icarus: Uprising. In an effort to showcase his versatility, not only is he making the move from platformer to frenetic shooter, but the latest game also boasts an extensive augmented reality suite that works off of collectable AR cards. While each new purchase of Uprising will include six random cards, there are plenty of other ways to get your hands on a few that won’t cost you a dime.
This time the developers over at Irrational Games talk about another ferocious enemy in Bioshock Infinite, the Handyman.
The Xbox 360's "architecture" is said to be the cause for the missing feature.
When Street Fighter X Tekken was released last Tuesday, many players found out that the Xbox 360 version didn't include four player co-op mode - which allows you and a friend to team up locally and take on another team online - despite it being mentioned as a feature in the instructional manual and being available on the PlayStation 3 version.
Available now for the PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360.
