To make a long story short, Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag is perhaps one of the most refreshingly fun and addictive story-driven open-world titles out there…period. Released as a multi-platform title, ACIV really shines on a next-gen console like the PS4 (with its luscious detail and added definition). It’s also worth mentioning that there’s a fun and highly entertaining multiplayer mode on board as well, which should delight any serious gamer. The point is – Black Flag is amazing, and you should definitely own it if you have a PS4. The first thing to take note of however, where AC4…
The Call of Duty series has certainly come a long way. Activision and an assorted list of developers have worked hard to both expand and refine their FPS formula in order to open fans up to new possibilities. In their latest effort, “Ghosts” we find an entirely new platform, if you will – sort of an amalgamation of the tropes developed by Modern Warfare and Black Ops, if you will. Needless to say, this game has a lot going for it; not only are there an incredible number of in-game features and multiplayer modes to keep you busy, there’s also…
FIFA 14 Tips and Tricks Guide
Updated:
The FIFA series is a franchise that’s built its reputation on its gameplay, particularly when it comes to controls. Unlike many other sports series in the video game realm, EA has really put quite a lot of effort into bringing gamers a football experience like no other. From increasingly realistic graphics to the way you handle the ball, FIFA 14 is a stunning achievement, particularly on the PS4, which features the all-new Ignite engine. In short, the next-gen version of this game is perhaps THE title that FIFA fans have been waiting for. Despite all the recent advancements though, many…
The Gran Turismo series is something of a Sony intuition, having long-been perhaps one of the most popular racing series available on the PlayStation platform. With the release of GT 7 however, fans of the franchise might very well be treated to some splendid surprises. But before we go there, let’s examine the current progress of Gran Turismo 6, which is set to be released in early December (2013) on the PS3. If you’re wondering why such a thing might be important, consider the fact that development of GT 7 is aid to be in close alignment with that of…
For all intents and purposes, the PS4 has done extremely well in the first week after its launch. While we don’t have the actual sales figures yet concerning just how many units were sold, we do know that over 1 million were scooped up in the first day alone. Technically speaking, this is unprecedented; in fact, it’s now safe to say that the PlayStation 4 has sold faster than any other gaming console released to date. For instance, it’s being reported by retailers such as GameStop that sales of the PS4 in their stores have already surpassed those of the…
Infamous: Second Son Preview
Updated:
The “Infamous” series has been a Sony PlayStation exclusive since its inception in 2009. Featuring unique comic book-influenced action amid action / adventure settings in an open-world design, this franchise has definitely found its own niche’ to fill. Infamous: Second Son (which is to be a PS4 exclusive, btw) is the third successive game in the series and takes place no less than seven years after the events of Infamous 2 (if we’re talking about the good ending, anyway). You assume the role of Delsin Rowe, a lowly graffiti artist whose powers are awoken on a chance encounter with a…
Is Microsoft attempting to solve a problem which is already been solved by TV manufacturers? Facing many competing platforms, it would seem that console manufacturers really have to stay on their toes these days in order to remain viable. Not only do we have a slew of devices dropping onto markets every few months (think tablets, smartphones and PC’s), but there’s also a new outside threat – Smart TV’s. In fact, it could be argued that these new intelligent televisions are doubly dangerous, since they also tend to be used in tandem with gaming consoles. So, what’s the threat, you…
We don’t have Gran Turismo 6 for PS3 yet, however, it’s sequel could possibly land on PS4 later next year. The news came from Polyphony Digital CEO Kazunori Yamauchi. “We don’t want to take too long on Gran Turismo 7,” Kazunori told Top Gear. “Best-case scenario? Next year. In GT6 we really had to tune the software 100 percent to maximize the PS3’s architecture, but of course the PS4’s hardware is much better, so I think the overall quality of the game across the board will be boosted when you come to play it.”
An exclusive partnership, which starts today, was agreed between PlayStation and Channel 4. The deal involves a marketing campaign, which places Channel 4’s infamous number symbol within PlayStation 4 games, such as Kill Zone: Shadow Fall. A range of competitions will also be shown through mini ‘blipverts’, allowing viewers to try and crack codes. The campaign is designed to bring attention to the final build-up to the console’s UK launch.

Console Review: The PS4
Updated:
After what seems like an eternity, the PS4 is finally upon us and for all intents and purposes it would seem that Sony’s new flagship console is on pace to do quite well in international markets. During the first day of its release over 1 million units were sold, breaking new sales records in North America. In fact, it’s been said that the PS4 in on track to be the best-selling console in history, even surpassing Japan’s PS2 launch sales figures (from 2000). Technically speaking though, Sony is actually selling the PS4 at a loss (a necessary evil from their…
Here are some of the awesome announcements from the PS4 All Access: Greatness Awaits launch event
Updated:
Sony’s recent “Greatness Awaits” launch event in New York was every bit the lively and eventful showing that everyone thought it was going to be. All things considered, the PS4 seems to essentially sell itself; the console has so many new features and raw potential that it almost boggles the mind. To call the PlayStation 4 “futuristic” is completely apt, it’s fully-capable of delivering unprecedented performance and graphics to big box video gaming, replete with incredibly massive maps and enough detail to make you question how it’s even possible. In short, it would seem that new PS4 owners are going…

Just your basic buyers’ guide for concerned parents (who are probably just as eager as their kids to try out Sony’s new flagship console) A lot has changed since the early days of video gaming, when the onscreen violence was blocky or highly animated, not realistic enough to merit much attention. Today’s high-powered consoles (particularly the upcoming 8th generation) however, are capable of delivering the kinds of visuals that boggle the mind on large HD screens, making semi-realistic-looking encounters possible. Naturally, this might concern some of the parents out there; especially those who haven’t even touch a controller in ages.…
There are a number of reasons why the push toward truly Next-Generation gaming occurred in 2013, each of them fitting together nicely like a jigsaw puzzle. For starters, we have to take the eagerness of your average gamer into consideration. Unless you have never been online or chatted with others via Xbox Live or the PSN, it’s fairly obvious that gamers are often a tough crowd to please. Even if you manage to release an awesome console or series of games, people will soon grow tired of the formula, pushing you to either adapt or commercially perish. For instance, the…
Being able to integrate motion-control that’s based on physical cues from players has always been a dream of game and console developers (not to mention, gamers). In the past, relatively simple light-based mechanisms allowed us to do things like hunt ducks utilizing little more than our own aiming abilities, which was certainly a step forward from only being able to control the action onscreen with a joystick. Subsequent developments saw even more intriguing devices being built for the early consoles, all of which turned out to be abysmal failures in one way or another. Fast-forward to era of the Wii,…

Even if you’re not particularly excited about the launch of the 8th generation of video gaming consoles, having a fairly large Smart TV on hand is always admirable. For instance, maybe you’re using it in tandem with your 7th gen. system or as fixture in your living room for watching shows, news and movies? Regardless of the reason, it’s fairly safe to say that nearly everyone likes the idea of HD visuals, particularly gamers who tend to seethe and foam at the mouth at the notion of extremely detailed graphics. Today’s average Smart TV isn’t just a static machine that…
Given that the Blu-ray format has more or less finally started to replace DVD as the preferred delivery method for big box games on consoles, we thought it prudent to come up with a list of movies which are worth watching via that particular format. Needless to say, the level of visual quality and realism inherent in Blu-ray is such that most people simply don’t want to go back to DVD’s after experiencing it with a few of their favorite movies. So, here’s a list of some of the more intriguing movies (which are available in the Blu-ray format) that…
With the official PS4 launch less than a month away now it’s time to begin prepping and examining all the details concerning game releases as well as the console itself. Much has already been said about how this next generation of consoles is going to up the ante in terms of performance and capabilities (which we will most certainly cover again here), but what remains unseen is how Sony’s new flagship gaming unit is going to affect the industry as a whole. Right now many analysts are looking at the situation and thinking that it’s very possible that the PS4…

The Order: 1886 Preview
Updated:
Whenever introduced to developer Ready at Dawn’s upcoming action-adventure title “The Order: 1886”, the first thing that strikes most people is the game’s setting and style. In short, 1886 is a game that incorporates steam-punk visuals and Victorian-inspired clothing and architecture amidst modern weaponry and a slightly sci-fi backdrop. The game itself is set in an alternate history of course, one in which a so-called “old order of knights” keeps the world same from monsters. Of course much is still unknown with regards to this game’s development, and with its release date being unannounced and in 2014, anything could happen…
