The Church of England is upset over a new video game by Sony that features the Manchester Cathedral as a backdrop. The game for the PS3, Resistance Fall of Man, pits humans against an alien invasion. The church wants an apology from Sony as well as a substantial donation of the profits of the game. Other demands are that the church be removed fro the game entirely or the section featuring the church be heavily modified.

Officials with the Church of England say that Sony did not receive permission to use the image in the video game while Sony contends that they thought they had. The game has already sold 1 million copies. Sony plans to contact church officials to discuss this matter further.

Hidden Expedition: Everest is a hidden object game where you are racing to the top of Everest. First, before making your climb, you must follow the clues that will lead you around the world to some of the world’s most exotic places.

Hidden Expedition: Everest is the follow-up to Hidden Expedition: Titanic. The game features real-time of Ed Viesturs’ footage of some of the world’s most dangerous summits.

In Everest, you are racing against three teams to reach the top first. Each scene features nine objects that must be found. You start off with three hints for each level. You can earn more hints by finding five hidden gems in each scene. Also gain extra time by finding the hourglass. Once all places on a level have been cleared, you will be either be presented with a puzzle to solve or another scene that features either 20 of the same items or find 3 of the same items 5 times.

During each scene, you can track your opponents’ progress. You don’t want to come in last, or you have to start the level over. Some scenes are repeated where you have to find different objects. These can go by fast since you have already spent some time staring at them. The gems are always in the same place, so it makes it a good way to get a free hint.

Everest is a very enjoyable hidden object game. It’s challenging enough to be fun without being impossible to finish.
