PS2 Preview - 'Kingdom Hearts II'

Genre: RPG
Publisher: Square-Enix
Developer: Square-Enix
Release Date: TBA
One of the titles I anticipated most before this year's E3 was Kingdom Hearts II, which picks up the story a year after Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories. The Heartless are back once again, but so are Sora, Donald, and Goofy. Some of the supporting characters from the original game have returned, as well as a few new friends.
For me, Kingdom Hearts was always about two things: the gameplay, and the joy of seeing the Square-Enix characters working with the Disney characters. As far as gameplay goes, a lot of

Genre: Action
Publisher: Electronic Arts
Developer: EA Tiburon
Release Date: Q4 2006
The first thing I thought of when I saw Superman Returns, frankly, is that certain people are going to have an absolute ball with it.
The second thing I thought of, regrettably, was Superman's video game record. With the arguable exception of the arcade quarter-muncher, no game based on the Superman license has ever aspired to or reached anything better than utter mediocrity.
