PlayStation users should prepare for another one of Sony's User Agreements
Sony has been sending out emails to PlayStation Network users to inform them that their PSN accounts are being converted to SEN accounts. SEN accounts are simply Sony Entertainment Network Accounts. So, why is Sony doing this? In their emails they say that they are trying to get to their goal of, "establishing a global comprehensive network platform of services across games, movies, music and more, all accessible from one convenient account." For the users themselves, they will notice very little change other than the name, and of course the User Agreement that PlayStation users will have to accept along with a soon-to-come update.
Emails are currently being sent out, so if you haven't gotten one yet then you should receive one soon.

Batman is bringing some pals along this time around
LEGO Batman took place in Gotham City which allowed you to only play as characters in related to the Batman series. This time, in LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes, you will have a larger roster of characters. Players will be able to take control of Batman characters, but they will also have the opportunity to use Superman, Wonder Woman, and the Green Lantern to name a few. This large roster of available characters should bring nice variety and co-op experiences to gamers. Heroes aren't the only character being added to the game though. With the new heroes come villains such as Lex Luther from Superman, but the Joker is sure to make another appearance in the new game as well. Who knows? Maybe Lex Luther and the Joker will be working together to combine their evil powers.
LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes is scheduled to release this Summer on PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii, DS, 3DS, and PlayStation Vita.
