[News] Humble Bundle with Android 5 is here!

oh lawd, is I in heaven?
The Humble Bundle is back! The latest Humble Bundle with Android 5 includes some really great games, including Dungeon Defenders (and all DLCs), Super Hexagon, Beat Hazard Ultra, Dynamite Jack, Solar 2 and NightSky HD. You also get the soundtracks for 5 of these games.

The best part is, all these games will work on Windows, Mac, Linux AND Android!

However, there is a catch. You only get all games if you pay more than the average (currently $6.66). Otherwise, you may pay anything between a minimum of $0.01 - $6.66 and still receive 4 games and 3 soundtracks. Still, this is a great deal since the total value of all these games and soundtracks is over $100.

The bundle will be up for grabs for the next two weeks, so take advantage of this offer while you can at www.humblebundle.com.

[News] Sony announces PlayStation 4!

Yep, it's official. After weeks of speculation, Sony officially announced its next generation console from an event in New York yesterday. However, despite the huge hype preceding the announcement, Sony did not unveil the actual console, smashing our hopes of catching a glimpse of what it would look like. 5 years in the making, according to Lead System Architect Mark Cerny, the PlayStation 4's goal is freeing game developers from technological barriers by offering a console that was 'by game creators, for game creators'. He further stated that the architecture of the PS4 was 'like a PC, but supercharged'.

[News] Playstation 4 to be revealed on February 20th?

Yesterday, a mysterious video was uploaded to PlayStation's YouTube page titled '#Playstation2013':


Yep, you guessed it. It's quite possible that Sony's PlayStation 4 may be ready to be announced to the public. In an online report, the Wall Street Journal confirmed that Sony's teaser was foreshadowing the announcement of the PlayStation 4. Sony on Thursday unveiled plans for a PlayStation-themed event set for Feb. 20, teasing fans to "see the future" at the event. Rumours are afoot that the new device will make its debut there, beating Microsoft Corp. to the punch in announcing its own next-generation game machine.

[News] Grand Theft Auto 5 release postponed!

Earlier today, Rockstar Games made an announcement on their official website, detailing the official release date of the latest installment in the Grand Theft Auto franchise. Sadly, however, the release has been pushed back to September this years from its original estimated release of spring. The official date of release is 17 September 2013, four months after the previous estimated date.


The post on the website went on to say that the delay was so that Grand Theft Auto 5 is released at the standard that it deserves.

[News] New Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance trailers

As we inch closer and closer to Metal Gear Rising's release (coming up next month), three new trailers have been released on Machinima's YouTube page, providing some great insights into different aspects of the game, namely locations, abilities and an awesome 'finishing move'. I've got all three trailers here, including a description of what I can tell from each.

This first trailer, 'Locations' shows us some of the environments that we will get to see in game, ranging from a downtown-city like area, an underground rail, a dock and even what appears to be an open highway. Definitely locations that we haven't ever encountered in previous Metal Gear titles. It will be interesting to see how elements in each surround will be incorporated into the combat, and whether it will have the same destruction quality like Battlefield 3.

[News] Xbox 720 details leaked!

Details about the long awaited Xbox 720 have reportedly been leaked online, giving us a glimpse of just how powerful it could be.

According to VGleaks.com, the new Xbox 720 will have eight 1.6ghz CPU cores (similar to the PS4's design), 8 GB of  RAM and a custom DirectX 11.1 class 800-Mhz graphics processor.

The new specs for the console, which has been codenamed 'Durango' are definitely impressive and on par with a high end PC, but gamers feel that it may fall short of the PS4's capabilities. As previously rumoured, the new console also uses a x6 speed Blu-ray drive and comes with a hard drive as standard.

[News] Goodbye DualShock controller?

A PlayStation 4 controller concept
Rumours are afoot that Sony is going to abandon their familiar DualShock controller design for the PlayStation 4 (codenamed 'Orbis'). Sources have claimed that the newer controller will focus on biometrics and touchscreen, instead of the dual analog sticks that have been a part of Sony consoles ever since PlayStation One.

[News] Skyrim DLCs coming soon!

After long delays, Bethesda has finally revealed that the Dawnguard, Hearthfire and Dragonborn DLCs for The Elder Scrolls V : Skyrim will finally arrive for the PlayStation 3 next month.

Bethesda president Pete Hines tweeted that all the DLCs arrive on Sony's console next month while the Dragonborn DLC will be out for PC in the first week. The PS3 DLC will be awailable at a 50% discount during the first week (probably Bethesda's way of saying, "sorry we took so long").
