Playstation 4 Rumors, Specs, Release Date and Info


The latest info on Sony PS4 rumours, specs, release date and price
Sony finally
revealed its plans for the PlayStation 4 next-generation console at New
York’s Manhattan Centre in February. While we’ve yet to see the
actually console itself, we are now privy to a host of spec details,
launch titles, and some info on the new controller.
With Microsoft confirming their presence at E3 it seems almost
certain that Sony will want to unveil what the new PS4 actually looks
like at the gaming convention in order to try and divert some of the
attention away from Microsofts highly-anticipated Xbox 720.
A number of gaming developers have confirmed that they will be
releasing games on both the PS4 and on current-generation consoles
including Ubisoft who have confirmed both Assassin's Creed: Black Flag and Watchdogs will be available on both.

Sony PS4 – specs

On stage at the launch event, Sony group CEO Andrew House described
the PS4 as the “foundation of our next generation platform” – claiming
that the console will give players “experiences that surpass [their]
wildest expectations. It’s also been described as “like a PC, only
supercharged”.
That all sounds lovely – but what about some cold hard specs?
CPU: single-chip custom processor, x86-64 AMD "Jaguar," 8 cores
GPU: 1.84 TFLOPS, AMD next-generation Radeon-based graphics engine
Memory: 8GB GDDR5
Built-in hard disk drive (Sony didn't specify how big the hard drive will be)
6X Blu-Ray Drive, 8X DVD
USB 3 and Auxiliary ports (Sony didn't specify how many ports)
Gigabit Ethernet port,  802.11 B/G/N built-in WiFi, and Bluetooth 2.1
HDMI, Analog-AV, and digital optical outputs
Industry analysts say that they don’t expect to see one until the E3 gaming expo this June.
Doom creator and PC gaming wizard John Carmack said: "I can't speak
freely about PS4, but now that some specs have been made public, I can
say that Sony made wise engineering choices.” So there you go.

Sony PS4 – controller

The only piece of kit that was on show was the new PS4 controller –
which features a touchpad interface where the Start and Select buttons
previously appeared and a 3D tracking light panel.
The main addition to the controller is the ‘Share’ button, which lets
you record, edit and upload gaming footage and share it online with
their friends.
‘Second screen’ is a term getting banded about gaming types a lot at
the moment.  The PS4’s answer: The PS Vita will double as an extra
interface for the console, as will your iOS or Android-powered
smartphone.

Sony PS4 – social gaming

A lot of the PS4’s ethos is around the ‘connected generation’ – those that are rarely off Facebook, Twitter and the like.  
The PS4 wants to give you social media through a gaming filter – by
letting you watch friends games in progress, offer tips and
recommendations and even take control of their game, like an IT guy
remotely fixing your PC. 
The new look PSN page even looks a bit Facebook.
The now Sony owned cloud gaming operation Gaikai also ties into this, offering streaming demos.
You’ll also be able to play each PS4 title through digital download
or cloud streaming. How much strain that would put on Gaikai’s server
firms – let alone how good the service would be on the UK’s less that
world class internet connections, remains to be seen.

Sony PS4 – release date

Ubisoft has heavily hinted that the Sony PlayStation 4 would be
launching on November 22nd after it revealed that its blockbuster game
Watchdogs would be launching first on the next-generation console.



Microsoft
has announced it will reveal next-generation Xbox to the world on May
21st at an event at its headquarters in Redmond, Washington.
 

Microsoft has announced that it plans to unveil the next-generation
Xbox console at an event at its Redmond headquarters Stateside on May
21st. It's also announced that further details will be announced at E3
alongside a full list of launch titles for the new console. 
Xbox spokesman Major Nelson wrote on his official blog: "On Tuesday
May 21st we'll mark the beginning of a new generation of games, TV and
entertainment. On that day we'll be holding a special press event on the
Xbox campus and we invite you to join us via the live global stream
that will be available on Xbox.xom, Xbox LIVE and broadcast on Spike TV
if you in the US or Canada."
"On that day, we'll share our vision for Xbox and give you a real
taste of the future. Then, 19-days later at the Electronic Entertainment
Expo (E3) in Los Angeles, we'll continue the conversation and showcase
our full lineup of blockbuster games."
The next-generation Xbox reveal really can't come soon enough for
players and industry analysts alike. While the rumour mill has been
steadily churning over the last six months, millions of fans are still
in the dark about Microsoft's next-generation console.
Will it require an “always-online” connection in order to work? Will
it play second-hand games? Will Kinect be mandatory? What, in fact is it
called - Xbox, Xbox 720 and Durango are just three of the names that
have surfaced.
Hopefully, all will be answered in Redmond on May 21st at the Xbox's
reveal event, which comes nearly two full months after Sony showed off
the capabilities and new controller for its next-gen console, the PS4. 
Buckle your seatbelts, kids because the bell just sounded for round
two of the next-generation console wars (and forgive us for mixing our
metaphors - we're really quite excited).



Grand Theft Auto V Information // Add me on iGTA 5

GTA 5 is finally on the horizon and T3 nabbed a behind-the-scenes live demo of the hottest game of the year
Grand
Theft Auto 5 (or Grand Theft Auto V, to give it its correct roman
numeral-flavoured moniker) is unarguably the most anticipated game of
the year. With front-page exclusives, multi-storey murals and millions
of web clicks for the slenderest of cut-scene-encrusted trailers, Rockstar Games' September-set new sandbox for Xbox 360 and PS3 is the hottest of gaming properties.


Indeed, GTA V's delay from spring to autumn suddenly feels all the
crueler now that spring is actually in the air and not just a word
printed on a schedule. It's so close our joypad-calloused hands can
almost touch it.


We say "almost" with a heavier heart than most, too, because T3 has had
an up-close, behind-closed-doors live demo of its inner workings, the
gameplay behind the cinematic trailers; our eyes have gorged on Los
Santos's spectacularly detailed locales and multifaceted heist
potential, yet said hands stayed firmly controller-less the whole time.
"Almost."

GTA 5: Characters

Yet what we've seen has our mitts itching undeniably for a joypad or
two, as Rockstar has rethought the mechanics of GTA more than the overly
familiar, wise-cracking trailers suggest.
The new three-pronged structure has you jumping between Henry
Hill-esque bank robber-turned-witness protection case Michael, car repo
man Franklin and war-vet trailer-dweller Trevor with a push of a button,
a character wheel jumping up at the bottom right.


This split-personality disorder doesn't just act as a quick way round
when exploring the frankly intimidatingly sized city (three and half
times the land mass of Red Dead Redemption, reads the post-show fact
sheet). It's also used as a strategic device throughout missions, to,
say, cover all vantage points or execute actions in different locations
simultaneously.


In fact, there are three different types of switch options at play:
auto, as some individual missions require completion by a certain
character; cut-scene, in which you're prompted to change persona to
advance the central plot; and free choice, where you can use any
character you wish, dependent on personal taste. We're told there will
be plenty of all three.


Interestingly, we notice the character wheel has four divisions, not
three, the last one greyed out suggestively. Naturally, we ask why, and
are told it's to do with multiplayer, which isn't being discussed.
We can but hypothesise that a co-op campaign with a mate helping you
out in heists would be all kinds of ace. Like the second Kane &
Lynch's Fragile Alliance multiplayer, but, y'know, good. Well, that's
the dream.

GTA 5: Gameplay

In fact, we have a hunch co-operative heists are going to spawn a
whole new genre of brag video on YouTube this year. We realise we keep
saying heists a lot, and that's because GTA V has taken its
predecessor's much-loved Three-Leaf Clover mission not just for its
action set-pieces but much of its narrative.


Sure, there's loads of other stuff to do on your own, as ever. One side
mission sees Michael outrun the paparazzi to rescue an A-lister from
their prying zooms (was the $150 tip necessary, though? Doesn't she know
who I am?).


There are even self-contained hunting and base jumping mini-games, among
others, and we spied a Blazing Tattoos, ink fans. Yet the story is
pushed forward by these bringing togethers of the three protagonists.


We're promised the full Reservoir Dogs routine: hiring goons by skill
set (up to 12 a team), location scouting, escape planning, getaway car
stealing and costume sourcing (bagsy the Ex Presidents masks), even Joe
Cabot's ageing whiteboard.


Do you pick an all-round strong team, or select a talented weakling who
can crack a safe but get offed in gun fire so you can make off with a
heftier cut? In our mind we're planning a devilish Dark Knight-esque
scheme of last-man standing, but Rockstar won't confirm if this will be
possible. Go on, you know it makes sense.  


Our interest is certainly piqued at this strategic, Football
Manager-esque take on the crime underworld, the return of San Andreas'
upgradeable stat system adding another layer of RPG-esque depth and
mission ownership underneath the action (a brief foray into scuba-diving
shipwrecks amid sharks explaining why you would ever max out "lung
capacity"). But unsurprisingly it's action our eyeballs are given.

GTA 5: Combat

We're thrust straight into the heat of one particular heist, straight
out of, er, Heat (the old "block the road with a big van and ram them
with another big van" routine), weapons of choice some dust trucks,
boiler suits and a set of horror-film masks. Apparently it's a "Blitz
Play", not an actual "Heist" – they are differentiated in- game by the
amount of planning required and the size of the payoff – but it looks
like one.


Rather than played for japes as the cut-scenes suggest, though, the
tension builds like a scene from Drive, all pulsing bass lines and light
blurs, an atmospheric '80s-esque soundtrack rising and falling
contextually. We can only guess how affecting it will be when you're not
only controlling it, but have personally planned all aspects of the
heist you're executing.


With the security van blown and goods commandeered, it's into a police
stand-off. Michael has scarpered with the package, so the remaining two
fight off the fuzz from in and around industrial estate architecture,
environments exploding around them.


The use of the character-switch button becomes apparent immediately, the
player skipping between their perspectives smoothly to first fend off
and eventually corner enemies, effectively controlling both team-mates
at once. The toggled-off character turns to AI support act when not
controlled, hiding and firing in cover in self-preservation.


Noticeable firefight refinements show a wider field of vision when lining up a mark over your shoulder, a handy Max Payne 3-esque
combat roll for evading an onslaught, and an even handier little 'X'
appearing over the reticule to signify a dead enemy. Any clarification
we can get in the heat of battle is gratefully received, thank you very
much.


Just when we think the police may be taking control, the player switches
to Michael, now miles away with a very good quality sniper scope in his
possession, and takes out the remaining coppers. For a finishing touch,
the old-reliable rocket launcher comes out to destroy the chopper
overhead. It's a classic GTA moment re-imagined, and it's exhaustingly
good entertainment, even as a viewer.

GTA 5: The World

Throughout our hour-long demo, Los Santos feels truly alive, whether
you're paragliding above dirt tracks coursing with ATVs as adrenaline
junkie Franklin, grabbing an abandoned speedboat, Far Cry 3-style,
as Trevor after waking amidst a passed-out throng of familiar biker
gang The Lost, or just being over-run by night-walking weirdos on
Vinewood Boulevard. These feel like lives being lived; over-the-top,
occasionally homicidal lives, but lives all the same.


Unusually, the entire city is available from the start, rather than held
back for you to unlock, showing confidence in its confines, a want for
it to be explored and enjoyed as a realistic space.


Similarly, your smartphone is again the natural hub of much of your
non-action activity, but this too is ramped up. Your iFruit (ho ho) can
now access the internet directly and take photos, popping up organically
on-screen for a snap that can be shared on Rockstar's Social Club
instantly as you would any real-life social-networking app (take that,
PS4 Share button).


Sure, we're inevitably thrust back into "game" world with talk of
"special abilities" that can be built up for each character, but even
these have a touch of heightened reality about them.
War vet Trevor can dish out and take more damage than anyone (fair
dues), speed demon Franklin can slow time when in cars for last-minute
U-turns (makes sense), while Michael indulges in a familiar bit of a
bullet time gunfire-dodging (because, well, he looks a lot like Max
Payne).


While you expect depth from a developer who's made creating sprawling
virtual cities its living, GTA 5 hints at more. Not just in sheer size,
but in interaction, the random residents and oddballs that send you off
on sub- mission tangents less scripted diversions, more part of the ebb
and flow, each of the three-amigo protagonists' lives moving on
dramatically while you're choosing to control another.

GTA 5: Verdict

Yet these are still just hints, small tasters of what Rockstar has
under the hood, and all our strained peepers can garner in a 60-minute
sitting. Hopefully in the coming months our hands will be able to join
in the fun and we can judge whether the most anticipated game of the
year is on its way to being the best. But our eyeballs say it's looking
good.


GTA 5 release date: 17 September 2013

BF3 double XP

Because of the recent Battlefield 3 DDOS attacks, the double XP weekend was pushed to a new date. Today EA revealed the new date: May 23-27 — a full 96 hours of double XP.
The Double XP will work as usual, with player’s scores doubling at
the end of each round. It’s a great way to quickly earn some new weapon
and vehicle unlocks if you haven’t already unlock everything.
The double XP weekend is open to all Battlefield 3 players, not just Premium members.

Battlefield 3 DDOS

Over the past few days, Battlefield 3 servers have been under a DDOS
attack. The DDOS — distributed denial of service — attack has crippled
the multiplayer infrastructure and several Battlelog features. Players
are reporting that they cannot connect to EA servers, and that their
stats appear to be wiped.
The attack is still undergoing, and is targeting Battlefield 3′s
back-end multiplayer servers, which means that basically everyone is
affected. DICE and EA are working to resolve the issue. In a statement,
EA said:

“The focus of the attack has been interference with
network communications preventing access to multiplayer gameplay. At
this point, no user data is involved. We share your frustration about
the impact this has had to our service and the ability for many of you
to play Battlefield 3. We are working tirelessly to mitigate the
problem.”

Because of the issues, the planned Double XP weekend scheduled to take place on May 9-13 will now moved to a later date.

starwars

EA has announced that Battlefield 3 developer DICE will be working on
Star Wars games in the future, built on the new Frostbite 3 game engine.
EA recently secured an exclusive Star Wars license from Disney, which
gives them freedom to make video games based on the popular movie
franchise.
So far there are no details about what kind of Star Wars game DICE
might be working on, but we certainly hope they do a multiplayer shooter
set in the Star Wars universe. We kinda had something like that before:
Star Wars Battlefront.

Battlefield 3 double XP

DICE has announced that all Battlefield 3 players — Premium and
non-Premium — will be getting a double XP event next month. While
usually it’s just a double XP weekend, this time it runs from May 9 to
13, four days, or 96 hours of doubling up on all the points your earn
in-game. The double XP will count only on Ranked servers and will
include all game modes and all maps.
But it’s not like double XP matters any longer. Most of the players
who are still playing have unlocked everything a long time ago

On April 9th, 2013 in News, Videos

Battlefield 3 Premium owners will get a chance to be some of the first to play Battlefield 4. DICE has confirmed that all BF3 Premium
owners will get access to the Battlefield 4 beta when it launches this
Fall. The beta will be accessible to Premium members and those who
pre-order select editions of the game on Origin. Battlefield 4
was unveiled last month with a 17-minute gameplay video (seen above),
showing the first mission in the singleplayer campaign. The game will
launch this Fall.
With the release of End Game, DICE wrapped up work on Battlefield 3.
We’ll still get patches, of course, but content wise, there won’t be any
more DLC. It’s good that Premium owners get a few more incentives,
since there won’t be any more free content, at least in the form of
expansions. A few months ago, EA revealed that Premium now has over 3 million subscribers.
The Battlefield 3 beta launched a few weeks before the game shipped.
It started out with a single map and a single game mode (Rush on
Operation Metro), and was later extended to another map with another
game mode (Conquest on Caspian Border). We’ll have to wait and see what
the BF4 beta has in store for us. DICE is expected to unveil the
multiplayer portion of the game at E3 in June.
