Rise of Nightmares for Kinect is a game that sets a few milestones, both globally in terms of being the first M-rated Kinect game released and personally in terms of being my first real foray into Kinect gaming. The game is published and developed by SEGA and touted as a survival horror videogame - certainly an interesting approach to the Kinect controller considering that almost every other Kinect game presently available is geared towards family entertainment.

It’s been twenty years since Sonic first raced onto the scene in Sonic the Hedgehog for the Sega Mega Drive. The spiky blue speedster has had his fair share of ups and down during the last two decades but is back with a bang in Sonic Generations.

The game is essentially a tribute to two decades worth of Sonic titles, featuring levels, characters and bosses that will be instantly familiar to fans of the series - this is not, however, an attempt on Sega’s part to cash in on Sonic’s 20th anniversary. Rather, Sonic Generations is packed to the brim with entertaining content designed to appeal to anyone who’s ever enjoyed a 2D or 3D platformer.

It’s very easy to make a game frightening by intelligently placing cheap scares along the way to get a few jumps out of players, but it’s a lot more difficult to flood an experience with extreme tension and horror to add impact to those cheap scares.

Things like ambient sounds, moody lighting and atmospheric environments all contribute to the tension of a game, which ultimately lead to moments of catharsis to allow you to let off some steam and release that tension… before starting all over again.

No wonder gamers are such a twitchy lot!
