So what happen to The Gamer Plus Network?

Due to the lack of support, audience and adblock.

It's impossible to make this a full time dedication, I really wanted this to work but honestly there isn't any point in continuing this project any longer. At least for the moment.

I had goals on creating a network similar to RoosterTeeth but with the goal to create a fan base web review mechanic for games. The reviews would work based on the person genre favorites but either way we are gone and down for the unforeseeable future.

Follow me on twitter if you'd like: @imjustlino

I review anime on youtube and it is doing better then The Gamer Plus Network did.
Anyways thank you to some viewers and some late viewers.

Nintendo Wii U GameCube controller will create more problems than solutions for Nintendo

Nintendo is making a GameCube like controller for the Wii U. This is one of Nintendo's most terrible idea as of late, the Nintendo Wii U will now have the Gamepad, the Wiimote, the pro controller and now this new controller that will reflect a lot to the design of the GameCube Controller. Could this be a step forward or bigger step back since maybe the new controllers are not really appealing to the audience like it was back at launch.

The main reason why this is a bad idea is because the Wii U is now becoming an accessory hub. This means that they're trying to encourage customers to purchase different accessories for different games but even so that's not the issue. The issue is towards Nintendo not having a main audience so these accessories will create clutter and more financial problems for the company.

Another issue I'm having with Nintendo this time, is that all this money can be focused towards developing more games or working with third-party developers to bring more games to the Wii U. Speaking of which, how do you expect for developers to react to this? Now they have to create code for this controller to provide functionality to the games they made. This will also revive an old issue Nintendo had in the past with the Wii U not being able to play GameCube titles on to gamepad. Except this time it can affect all the current games on the Wii U but maybe not affect previous GameCube titles which was probably their main intention.

Nonetheless the focus of Nintendo clearly hasn't changed, they are putting focus on other things aside from the main issue which is games. We keep hearing that they're working on titles but we don't only care about their main franchise games which is what they still don't understand. As a gamer personally I want to see more third-party support so that I know I have variety of games for the Wii U to play.

Xbox One updates bring External Storage, Real Names, SmartGlass updates, and more!

Xbox One's next major update will be coming in June and apparently Xbox is excited to announce that the two most wanted features are coming to the Xbox One: External Storage support and real names to better identify your friends.

Something interesting to be noticed on the external storage is that Xbox is saying to "simply plug in your 256 GB or larger USB 3.0 external drive", can this mean you need a external supports that is USB 3.0? Aside from that weird very detailed explanation it seems to be just as simple as it was on the Xbox 360. The external storage will also allow full games to be stored which was a concern many folks.

The real interesting thing coming up here is the Real Names, so how does this work?
Well let's say you have a friend with the GamerTag "MasterChief2020" and another friend with "MasterChief2025". With this feature your friends can let you see there real name so you can distinguish that "MasterChief2020" is Roberto and "MasterChief2025" is Eric. Another useful feature aside from finding friends easier and seamless? Well you can hide your embarrassing GamerTag from your friends, Hey! We all know you blame that "Random Tag Chooser" but we all know that's a lie "1LoveHelloKitty".

Other features that are coming with update
One of the most wanted features is using certain apps like Netflix, Hulu and Internet Explorer without Xbox Live basically removing the paywall. Other things coming include SmartGlass Updates, OneGuide reaching more markets, Universal Remote Control, and the ability to reorder your Pins.

- The long wait is over: details on PS4, Xbox One, PS Vita (free) Minecraft versions

*Purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

Mojang has just announced details on the extremely long awaited Minecraft versions of PS4, XBox One, and PS Vita. The post also talked about also about current folks who own the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions.

Summary

If you own a previous console version you can upgrade for $5.00 or essentially own both versions if you buy the original and pay $5.00 more for the Next-Gen version. If you you bought the PlayStation 3 version you'll be getting the best deal since $5.00 more gets you the PlayStation 4 version and at the time of the PlayStation 4 version release the Vita release will follow. So if you bought the PlayStation 3 version the PlayStation Vita version is Free!

Full Details below!
*from original post

• Minecraft: Xbox One Edition will be released on Xbox Live Marketplace in August. It brings significantly bigger worlds and a greater draw distance than Xbox 360 Edition.
• It will include all the features from the most recent Xbox 360 title update.
• Minecraft: Xbox One Edition will cost $19.99.
• If you’ve bought Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition from Xbox Live Marketplace, or played online with the disc version, you will be able to upgrade to Xbox One Edition for $4.99.
• You will be able to upgrade for a minimum of a year after the release date.
• Players with Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition saves will be able to import their worlds to Xbox One. Unfortunately, you won’t be able to transfer saves from Xbox One to Xbox 360. We can make worlds bigger without too much stress, but shrinking them causes all kinds of problems.
• Cross platform play will not be possible between Xbox 360 and Xbox One.
• Many, but not all, of the DLC skins and texture packs you’ve purchased for Xbox 360 Edition will be available for use in Xbox One Edition. We’d like to say all your DLC would transfer, but some of the items are trapped in licensing deals that are too boring to get into here. We’ll have more on this soon.

• Minecraft: Playstation 3 + Vita Edition will be available on the PSN in August.
• It will include all the features from the most recent Playstation 3 version, including online play on Vita.
• This means everyone who has bought Minecraft: Playstation 3 Edition from PSN will get it on Vita for free. Those fluent in Sony-speak might refer to the deal as “Cross-buy.”
• We are working closely with Sony Computer Entertainment to look into ways to enable upgrade from the Blu-ray disc version of Minecraft: Playstation 3 Edition to Minecraft: Playstation 3 and Vita. We’ll have more info on this closer to release.
• Minecraft: Playstation 3 + Vita Edition will cost $19.99.
• It doesn’t matter if you buy for PS3 or Vita first, you own the game for both platforms.
• Saves are transferrable between the Playstation 3 and Vita versions of Minecraft. You will be able to craft at home on your Playstation 3, then continue on the bus/toilet with your Playstation Vita.
• All of the DLC you’ve purchased for Minecraft: Playstation 3 Edition will work on Playstation 3 + Vita Edition.

• Minecraft: Playstation 4 Edition will be released on the PSN in August. It brings significantly bigger worlds and a greater draw distance than Playstation 3 + Vita Edition.
• It will include all the features from the most recent Playstation 3 version.
• Minecraft: Playstation 4 Edition will cost $19.99.
• If you’ve bought Playstation 3 Edition from the Playstation Network you will be able to upgrade for $4.99.
• You will be able to upgrade for a minimum of a year after the release date.
• We are working closely with Sony Computer Entertainment to look into ways to enable upgrade from the Blu-ray disc version of Minecraft: Playstation 3 Edition to Minecraft: Playstation 4 Edition. We’ll have more info on this closer to release.
• Players with Playstation 3 Edition or Playstation 3 + Vita Edition saves will be able to import their worlds to Playstation 4. Unfortunately, you won’t be able to transfer your saves from Playstation 4 to Playstation 3/Vita. There are technical reasons for this; we can make worlds bigger without too much stress, but shrinking them causes all kinds of problems.
• Cross-platform play will not be possible between Playstation 3 + Vita Edition and Playstation 4 Edition.
• Many, but not all, of the DLC skins and texture packs you’ve purchased for Playstation 3 Edition will be available for use in Playstation 4 Edition. We’d like to say all your DLC would transfer but some of the items are trapped in licensing deals that are too boring to get into here. We’ll have more on this soon.

- Nintendo doing more cut backs and slashing more prices, could this be the end?

*Purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

Once again Nintendo is as it again saying that they have poor sales and cutting prices on their products that seem to be getting the blame for sale drops. The Wii U is getting another Sales Target slash which could possibly lead to another possible price cut on perhaps future Wii U bundles.

On Friday Nintendo came out to say that they expect a 25 billion yen ($240 million) loss which is lower than the previous expected loss of 55 billion yen. The company now expects to be selling 2.8 million units worldwide of the Wii U which is significantly less than the 9 Million they estimated they would sell.

The reason why they had anticipated the 9 million in sales was because they hoped that the Holiday Season was going to help drive sale which clearly didn't really do much. 

Nintendo President Press Briefing

"During the year-end shopping season, we weren't able to life sales momentum for the Wii U," said Nintendo President Satoru Iwata in a press briefing.
Satoru Iwata then said, "The decrease in game software sales is having the biggest impact [on profit]".
"My duty, more than anything else, is to revive our business momentum," he said.

Nintendo is putting the blame on the cost for the production of the Wii U but the Nintendo 3DS was also costly and fared better in sales. The culprit is obvious the lack of titles, price point, poor use of hardware  that make the Wii U look like a accessory junk collection. The console has THREE possible controllers and the accessory Line Up is astonishing. Another issue is that Nintendo has always said that Price Point isn't the issue but it is; Mobile Gaming is affordable, fun, and lacks priority hardware. Adding on, Mobile Gaming also can now be played through TVs via Apple TV or other Mirroring Services. The key thing here being that most of it brings more functionality than just Gaming, with gaming being an alternative use of the hardware, which can't be said the same about Consoles and Handhelds.

- Microsoft says Good Bye to Xbox Live Gold paywalls

*Purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

As the console war races on PlayStation clearly has an advantage over Microsoft but now Microsoft is providing a console that does not come with Kinect and also will be lowering the Xbox One's price due to that reason. But that's not all Microsoft announced that they will no longer be tying in most apps to their gold membership. Previously apps like YouTube, Netflix, Hulu and even Internet Explorer used to require Xbox Live Gold to be able to use it online but now Xbox One offers these services without the requirement of Xbox live Gold. 

Although sure this is a nice thing that Microsoft is doing; it still doesn't immediately entail that customers are going to be rushing to buy Xbox one. Many of the issues that people are not aware of over the Xbox one is that it wasn't related to apps not being able to be used because of Xbox gold although changing this was significant. Probably the most beneficial thing they did was removing Kinect because it has clearly shown that the market doesn't want Kinect at least when it comes to raising an extra hundred dollars to the console.

Other sites like IGN say that Microsofts losing the battle especially the one with in the consoles and towards Apple, and that being more like their competitors will benefit. On the contrary what we believe is that Microsoft needs to do via console wise is that they need to provide more games for the Xbox one. As of now it does not show a reason for purchasing it; it lacks games and pretty much makes Xbox 360 or any other console look better and this also goes for the PlayStation 4. Sure great graphics are important but that's not everything, they still haven't proved why we should invest $400 on a console that has no games.

- Analogue NT, the worst Nostalgic NES ever created (AKA RIP OFF)

*Purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

Lately we always see new consoles but here comes a rather interesting idea, wouldn't we love to see an old console be revitalized. Analog NT does just that and redesigns the original concept of the NES; but let us explain why this one Retro Gaming System you should Pass on.

For years NES has brought more than just entertainment for everybody, it introduced many children to a new world and experience with amazing heroes, failures and stories. To anyone a redesign of this console would be pretty much the most amazing thing ever created but let me tell you why this isn't the one that you would be looking for. 

Pretty much the main issue with this console is that it's literally just a NES in an aluminum body. The console doesn't include controllers or neither does it have any preloaded games. The highlight point is that it upscales to 720p or 1080p but honestly the blur in the game looks better than a giant pixelated screen. It includes OEM parts supposedly for the console which I highly doubt, but it's what they state. So what's wrong with it? Well it exchanges anything that brought Nostalgia to the original NES and personally it's like a plastic surgery; Full of Lies and down right disgusting.

I'm not here to just hate, but for that the cost ($500) they are pricing this you might as well as buy a Xi3 and download ROMs or a NES cartridge adapter. Either way you will be able to do more than just play NES and Favicom games. Finally let me tell you the honest opinion we have overall of this product, It's pretty much taking advantage of peoples Nostalgia, plus whoever would pay such a high price of $500 (Pretty much same as an iPad including the out aluminum shell. An iPads specs are also hundreds times better) is pretty much out of their mind. Why not just buy a  NES and refurbish it yourself? It will have more Nostalgia than this paper weight. Overall the cost for the production doesn't necessarily add up....

(Their controllers should get more praise, they are officially Refurbished with the original OEM parts)

- Deep Look into Nintendo's Mario Kart 8, could this be Nintendo's next big hit?

*Purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

As Mario kart 8's tracks go live we learn more about what Nintendo is actually trying to do now.

Nintendo has recently been trying to promote their latest game by discussing and showing the tracks from Mario kart 8. Since they're not planning to do any big announcements during E3 this year they're trying to reach their audience in a different way. One of these ways is that they're promoting both Mario kart 8 as previously stated and they're trying to promote Super Smash Brothers for Wii U and 3DS. Along with showing the roster of characters that will be included in the new Super Smash Bros, they're also showing the new Mario Kart 8 tracks and songs that will accompany them. They not only claimed but showed and proved that most of the songs (if not all) were recorded live.

In most cases Games simply show what the game is about but Nintendo's trying to show every angle of one of their top games in order to encourage customers to buy it. This is where Nintendo can probably shine the best because as of late they haven't been bring in good sales, so perhaps now they can prove to their shareholders that even their top games can still bring in some good revenue.

Now let's talk about Mario Kart 8, Mario kart 8 so far looks extremely well polished at any angle and the way the stages are designed and how they look clearly show that this is the next iteration of the Mario kart series. During Nintendo Direct they showed many of the tracks and many of them have very high textures and also have many 3-D objects running all at the same time aside from just the racers. Mario kart 8 is definitely showing the power that Wii U has over the original Nintendo Wii. They also have to sort of make up for it because the Nintendo Wii U isn't backwards compatible with the GameCube anymore.

Nonetheless Nintendo can hopefully still prove that their games can be AAA quality to date like they were in the past. It also seems that whether it's in the music, in the design, or in Game Concepts; Nintendo can still put well polished games out there standing aside next to games like Halo and Call of Duty which don't bring family-friendly entertainment.

- Samsung Galaxy K Zoom has everything but comfort

*Purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

UPDATE: No plans for US release and our rating consist of official product releases the one we obtained was a product display, showing most of its functionality but wasn't ready for consumer use.

Let me start by saying this isn't a terrible phone but at this moment a smartphone is thing that is light, easy to use and compact. Each of these categories slightly push this "Point and Shoot... Phone" to the borderline of what it means to be a Smartphone.

Now like we previously had said the phone isn't bad and instead actually feels good in the hand and feels like any other smartphone but it's bulky design and slightly heavier weight compared to the other smartphones adds some main issue to this "phone". A obvious positive note is that the Samsung Galaxy K Zoom offers 10x optical zoom, optical image stabilization, Xenon flash, and completes the package with an impressive 20 megapixel BSI CMOS sensor.

In case you were wondering this phone is aiming its guns towards the impressive Nokia Lumia 1020 however the lens on the Galaxy K Zoom isn't bigger than it so they are depending software wise [meaning Android]. Also this is much improved from its predecessor [below].

- Super Smash Bros being demoed at Best Buys and Nintendo's E3 announcements

*Purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

The Electronic Entertainment Expo is coming around the corner and will be taking place in Los Angeles on June 10 through June 12. Each E3 brings forth the latest in gaming as well as announcements from the largest players in the industry such as Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo.

However this year Nintendo is mixing things up a bit and will instead do a live-streamed press conference focused on the people in attendance. This style event will be called "Nintendo Digital Event"[clever], they say this is a new format to display their next involvements in the upcoming years. They have also stated that there would be a tournament held in the Nokia Theater in LA and live demos at their booth.

Here's the best part apparently anyone can try out the new Super Smash Bros. at their local Best Buy and this event is being called "Smash-Fest". This is not only great for those who have been waiting for the game but a great way to showcase one of the best titles that Nintendo owns for their current platform and hopefully reach new sales. As we have previously mentioned Nintendo sales have been fluctuating up and down recently so this announcement/event plus the soon to be released Mario Kart 8 bundle can really bring Nintendo some decent sales[aka customers].

- Nintendo getting desperate for sales?

*Purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

As many of us are aware Nintendo has been going through some pretty tough times, every time their sales go slightly up they fall even more lower in the coming weeks.

As of late, to counter their falling stocks they have two Mark Kart Bundles coming out fairly soon as well as for the first time ever "DLC passes". The DLC passes will be for the upcoming Mario Golf game for the 3DS because we all know how fun Golf is.

(Game Bundle [without console])

Many of these strategies for the company are to hopefully attract users with affordability and extras like T-shirts but the make-over that Nintendo needs is beyond that at this point. Many consoles have loads of games with DLC, so let's hope perhaps Mario Kart has DLC as well to see further support on the game which could also benefit Nintendo.

- Renting games on PlayStation Now for free but it's in Beta

*Purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

It has been clearly spotted around the internet that PlayStation is currently testing Video Game rentals, it was previously noted that prices would vary but showed prices such as $5-$8. One of the issues is if this the price for the 7-Day or 30-Day rental because renting movies at RedBox is $2 a day and this can end their success is it's really affordable.

It's something Sony might be pushing out soon but they haven't yet officially announced anything via their cloud-stream gaming service PlayStation Now.

- Microsoft planning to create original TV Shows for Xbox

*Purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

According the Wall Street Journal, Microsoft has plans to reveal hints for some original TV shows that may be in the works for Xbox. One of the most obvious notes to Microsoft is that this field isn't friendly at all with top competitors like Amazon, Netflix, and Hulu; some are even apps on both the Xbox 360 and Xbox One.

Microsoft's goal is to further make its point that the Xbox One was planned to go beyond video games, similar to how they have apps and live TV integration. The first shows will make their appearance around June: including shows like a Steven Spielberg directed "Halo" series and version of the popular sci-fi show "Humans".

There are more benefits for current users while their are large hurdles in store for Microsoft in this route. While sure they can reach new possible audience member the price tag on an Xbox One doesn't put it nowhere close to parring with Roku, Apple TV, and Amazon Fire TV. It's very convenient for family homes now as well because it can offer something for members in the Family, but that slight help gets countered with the Xbox Live Membership.

- Halo 5 details may be cleared up in the upcoming comic

Seems like everyone has been scraping the barrel for anything related to Halo 5, however the next Halo: Escalation's comic may shine some light into Halo 5's plot.

Comic Book Sources put the summary on what this comic will be about.

The Master Chief returns in “The Next 72 Hours: Part 1”! After defeating the Didact, John-117 joined the crew of Infinity . . . but why did he leave? The mystery begins here. Halo® lead writer Brian Reed (Amazing Spider-Man, Ms. Marvel) reveals the secret events that immediately follow the end of Halo 4.

Seems like it will give us a hint more at why Master Chief was rouging out in the desert but only time can tell since the comic hasn't been released. The comic will be on sale on July 23 which is well after E3 so if details are not released during E3 we have something to fall back on.

- Batman Arkham Knight date reveiled, The conclusion to the Batman Arkham Trilogy

*Purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.
*The 'reveiled' isn't a typo on purpose, the link wouldn't change*

The long awaited Batman game for Next Gen has finally gotten a release date, according to Classiclite. The game is expected to be released on Oct. 15. Many retailers have also listed the same exact release date so it has to be more than just coincidence. On the other hand, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment has only confirmed the game to be coming out around Autumn.

The game will have many of the familiar faces from the series and the comic franchise, but the development team has teamed up with DC to create a new exclusive villain for just the video game.

The Co-Founder of the studio released this statement.

We hadn’t in the previous games introduced someone new to the universe. We wanted to introduce someone who could really challenge Batman to go head to head with him in lots of different ways. We’re not talking about those ways just yet but this guy is definitely a formidable foe for Batman.

- Graphically speaking the game took 7 years to put together

No words can describe this game, honestly just watching the trailer made us donate!

At Heart Forth, Alicia's core is an ode to the classics. Remember the electrifying gameplay of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, the expansive worlds of the Zelda games, and the rich, engaging story of Xenogears? This game is crafted in the spirit of those great adventures of the '90s.
The story unfolds amidst the repercussions of centuries worth of struggle, strife, and bloodshed between cultures, races and worldviews. But above all else, it's an epic Metroidvania RPG that combines timeless 16- and 32-bit gameplay, modern mechanics, and a set of unique, intertwining stories to take you on a fantastic journey.

- Double Fine's latest game could be the next big hit

*Purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

Games seem like a dime a dozen lately since everyone is fighting to become the next big hit and Double Fine has made more games than many small game developer companies but its latest crowd funded game might be their next most solid idea ever.

LAST LIFE is a sci-fi noir adventure game for PC, Mac and Linux about a transhumanist colony on Mars. When a murdered detective is 3D printed back into existence, he reopens his last case to uncover what he missed--a hunt that reveals AI corruption, corporate espionage, and the conspiracy that may have led to Earth's doom.

Sam Farmer says Last Life was inspired by adventure games Kentucky Route Zero and Telltale's The Walking Dead series. Last Life has drawn the praise of adventure game veteran Tim Schafer, who gamers know as one of the main designers behind the Monkey Island and Psychonauts franchises, as well as the action game Brutal Legend. On Last Life's Kickstarter page, Schafer says, "As soon as we saw it, we loved it. And we knew we wanted to get involved and help out in any way that we could."
