Watch Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Gameplay

On June 2nd 2009 at E3 it was announced that Super Mario Galaxy will be coming out some time in 2010. From what I saw and from what the video revealed, the graphics are a little better, but, the game has exactly the same feel as it’s Nintendo predecessor.

This 3D platform game is in good contention for the BAFTA from what I saw so far.

Below is a video preview:

Dean Koontz - Relentless

A Review by Erika Ayala

Relentless - A Novel by Dean Koontz will be the newest novel by this world-famous author. Come June 2009, his fans will line up the stores-patiently waiting for another of his suspense thrillers. With what I’ve heard, this new one promises to be his best yet.

In Relentless, Koontz introduces us to Cullen Greenwich (known as “Cubby” to his closest friends) and his perfect life and family. He has a loving wife, Penny, who is an author and illustrator of children’s books. They have an intelligent six-year old son, Milo (”Spooky” to his parents), and a dog named Lassie who is almost part of the family. Cubby is a best-selling novelist and there is nothing else in this world that could make him any happier.

But his perfect little life becomes a little less like it when Sherman Waxx gives his successful new book a bad review. It’s not supposed to affect him that much since it’s just one bad review, but Waxx is known to make or break your career and your life. Cubby tries shrugging it off but when he accidentally sees where the recluse Waxx eats his lunch. Curiosity kills the cat and in this case, it could cost Cubby more than what he had originally bargained for.

Sociopaths like Waxx is a usual in Koontz novels but he seems to offer more this time. Koontz’ flair for destroying our glass-cased lives is what he specializes in and he doesn’t seem to fail us here. I wonder if Cubby’s profession has something to do with Koontz being a writer. He is, after all, known for injecting a part of him in his books and I don’t think this will be any different. June seems so far away for a novel that promises to get all of us hooked. Relentless - A Novel by Dean Koontz could just be the most anticipated suspense-thrillers of the year!
