‘Tom Clancy’s The Division’ Can Be Played Solo if You Have No Friends

That’s your map HUD!

You might have friends, but just want to play so solo stuff. Maybe your friends don’t have the game, I get it; that’s one thing that made me nervous about Tom Clancy’s The Division that was announced at Ubisoft’s E3 press conference. Not much is known about the game beyond what we all gathered in the demo, but Ubisoft has posted more details to their blog, including a clarification about its solo mode.

Everything You Want to Know About the Xbox 360 Stingray

Everything You Want to Know About the Xbox 360 Stingray

Stingray?

At Microsoft’s E3 press conference they announced a redesigned Xbox 360 to look more like the Xbox One design. I thought it was a very strange move but some of the guys here thought it was a cost savings thing for Microsoft. It turns out it wasn’t “we redesigned Xbox 360 to give it a fresh new design and a similar look and feel to Xbox One. Although we’re very excited about Xbox One, we remain dedicated to Xbox 360 now and for years to come.” Read the rest of this article…

E3 2013: “Infamous: Second Son” First Impressions – I’m Buying a PS4 For This

Nice chain, bro.

Unfortunately I never got into the Infamous series of games since I went the Xbox 360 route. I watched friends playing it and thought it looked fun but I stuck with Prototype on my Xbox 360. After watching the gameplay demo today I can say that this sealed the deal for me getting a PS4. Read the rest of this article…

E3 2013: ‘Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag’ Multiplayer Impressions – More Than Just Pirates

No joke I was that character with the gun always chasing down the girl.

The Assassin’s Creed franchise has settled in on a style of multiplayer that I find pretty interesting and fun. They haven’t really added a lot to the multiplayer of the different releases until Black Flag. Read the rest of this article…

“Call of Duty: Ghosts” Fish AI Was a Joke [VIDEO]

lol

In an interview with Machinima, Mark Rubin clarified that the fish AI in Call of Duty: Ghosts was just an effect saying, “it’s just fish, it’s an effect. It’s not a big deal. It’s not even new. I love that the internet picked up on it. I love that they picked up on Nintendo 64′s Mario, and showed that. That was awesome. That was so exactly what I wanted out of that, so thank you guys. Thank you internet.” Take a look at the video below to see how the internet took the entire Call of Duty: Ghosts reveal including the fish AI. Read the rest of this article…

“The Crew” E3 Test Drive: A Day One Purchase

Vroom, vroom

Ubisoft’s The Crew was something that really piqued my interests. I’m not a driving game kind of guy but I do enjoy jumping into Forza or Need for Speed every once in awhile. Ubisoft promised an large-scale RPG so I had to check it out. Read the rest of this article…

Who Wins – Xbox One Controller vs PS4 Controller, Fight

Who Wins – Xbox One Controller vs PS4 Controller, Fight

FIGHT!

It’s no secret that I like the Xbox 360 controller and despise the DualShock 3 controller. Maybe it’s because I have larger hands that the DualShock 3 was never comfortable and the Xbox 360 controller was. I got a chance to try both controllers are E3 and the results may surprise you.

Xbox One Will Only Work in the 21 Launch Countries

The Xbox name is being tainted :(

Microsoft seems to keep burying itself this year at E3. Confirmed by the Xbox official Twitter and their website, the Xbox One will only work in the 21 launch categories. This is due to the fact that the Xbox One needs to authenticate with Xbox Live every 24 hours. There are other requirements when you buy the Xbox One including waiving your right to class action lawsuits. Read the rest of this article…

PS4 New UI Shown Off, Facebook Called, They Want their Design Back [VIDEO]

PS4 New UI Shown Off, Facebook Called, They Want their Design Back [VIDEO]

I didn’t realize the interface would be a website.

Sony didn’t show off any of the PS4 UI at either of their press conferences and we all dreaded it being the XrossMediaBar (cross-media bar), at least I did. Seriously, that thing did not age well. Seeing Xbox refresh their UI constantly made me loathe the XMB more. But a cheesy scripted video was released that does show off the new UI and at least it’s not XMB, right?

E3 2013: ‘Wolfenstein: The New Order’ Paints A Pretty Picture, Isn’t Fun To Play Yet

Mechanical Monsters, Nazis and not a lot of fun yet.

We got some hands-on/eyes-on time with Bethesda’s new Nazi blaster Wolfenstein: The New Order. The development team, comprised of ex-Starbreeze vets, is creating a new Wolfenstein based in 1960 in which the Nazis won WWII with the help of some mysterious tech. Unfortunately, it seems that despite the polish displayed in their theater presentation, the gameplay simply isn’t ready yet.
