Kotaku Australia: How You’ll Play Far Cry 4 With Friends Who Don’t Own It. This is interesting, I remember some PSP games having this function nearly 10 years ago. This way of sharing seems more about the promotion of the title, than the fun of multi player gaming. The “sender” will receive ten “Keys to Kyrat” which he can send to ten PSN “friends” of his choice. The “friend” will…

For those who loved the first person parkour Mirror’s Edge, the sequel is a must play title. The environments and movements look fantastic, but do they look next generation? I’m hoping that the game play, and difficulty, have not been dumbed down too much for popular appeal. Another reason to purchase a next gen console too 🙂

phew, the release of Shadow of the Collosus for the PS3 was the sole reason I picked up the console. Thinking The Last Guardian may influence my decision to the Sony machine in the next gen too Sony reveals the cancellation of Team ICO’s long-running project during an internal meeting last week… The game has been in development since 2007, and was formally announced at the 2009 Electronic Entertainment Expo…

So with the news of the recent launch of Ultra Street Fighter IV, I have found a token that grants 48 hours of Gold membership to xbox live, I’ve had a few fights to test my connection and setup (7 wins from 8, my Blanka still kicks arse 🙂 ), and the Ultra update is currently downloading. So to fill in the time, and to get my game up to…

Phil Spencer from Microsoft posted on twitter today: June #XboxOne software dev kit gives devs access to more GPU bandwidth. More performance, new tools and flexibility to make games better But what does this mean? Eurogamer questined Microsoft: Microsoft has confirmed that this boost in performance is in fact due to Kinect being stripped from the package. When asked if the two were related, a Microsoft spokesperson sent Eurogamer the…
Quite sad about this, of all the original consoles I have in my collection, my PSP-1000 is one that I still occasionally break out. I have fond memories, from across the globe. Sometimes tropical exotic locations. Often in transit. Special simple gaming moments with this device. Let the death march toll: patta, patta, patta, pon I remember paying over $100 USD for a 1gb memory card, this was before I…

I’ve played Watch Dogs for the past day (16.1% Progression!), here’re a few of my thoughts on the title so far, my largest criticism is that it isn’t GTA 🙂 Watch Dogs don’t sprint Towers, it’s an Ubisoft open world adventure, how can there not be towers to liberate(!) No clipping experienced on the PS3, I was prepared for the worse I’m not using guns often, that’s cool and makes…

Watch Dogs is currently installing on my PS3, the nearly 2 year wait is finally over… and I don’t know if I should be excited, or ready for a little disappointment. There have been brief reviews of how unimpressed some players have been, take Metacritic’s user score of 4.5, and the first couple of publisher opinions not too much better, which is the juxta of most game’s scores on (pre)release.…

Another couple of fun Wolfenstein easter eggs “Mond, Mond, Ja, Ja”Edit When Die Käfer was formed by four Englishmen from Liverpool in Nazi- controlled Great Britain, they were faced with a choice: either start singing in German or face banning and detainment by the Nazi regime. Die Käfer chose to adapt to the times. They changed their name and learned how to sing in German. Currently, they’re touring Europe to…

Currently installing Wolfenstein: The New Order, from the masters Bethesda, on the XBOX It’s been too long since I’ve played an original enthralling title, and Bethesda have not let me down to date! Before I begin, I have no issue with real people in the target of my online single player aim. I acknowledge that some may find zombies easier to liquidate with a shotgun, personally I don’t care. That…

Ultra Street Fighter iv – system and character changes As a longtime fan of Street Fighter I get excited about every new iteration… although not maybe the costume packs 🙂 So reasons to be stoked: the game will be released on the XBOX360 and PS3 the 4 old, 1 new character, that is to be added to the line up the changes to the existing fighters variables… red focus! Thanks…

I don’t seem to have been playing many quality new games in the post Xmas summer months, this weekend the fast was broken with The Stick of Truth… it’s better than all expectations, but you already know that 🙂 I’m enjoying working my way around South Park, but I’m in no rush to complete it. Don’t get me wrong, it is compelling, but I think there’s a reason that the…
Forbes – Bringing Back The Demons It’s impossible to talk about Dark Souls II without a discussion of Demon’s Souls. In many respects, Dark Souls II is as much a sequel to From Software’s PS3 exclusive as it is to the original Dark Souls. If the two games had a baby, this hellishly difficult creation would be their demonic offspring. In form and function, Dark Souls II feels much more…
