- Dead Space free for a limited time

Many of you may be asking, what in the hell is Origin? Well Origin is EA's version of Steam however they haven't really been doing all that well despite pulling some of its games off Steam.

In a new Stunt perhaps to gain more popularity they are offering Dead Space for free. Dead Space is perhaps one of the most scariest games to be released and pretty much defines Horror/Survival. Could this possibly be EA's ticket to popularity?

- Dead Nation announced for PlayStation Vita coming later this April

* = This means our sources for factual evidence, that's right we 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.

Dead Nation is a Top-Down shooter that will be heading on the PlayStation April 15, and not only is it amazing but it's coming at a steal. Many of the issues in the past with handheld games was that they come at an expensive price when one can easily find a similar version of the game on a mobile device for a much smaller value. Dead Nation is coming out for $7.99 which sounds perfect since games like Call of Duty Zombies comes at $4.99 but graphically they are not in the same level and same goes for how it plays.

The game will feature Online and Ad-Hoc co-op, and not mention global leaderboards for those hardcore gamers who like leaving their mark of skills online. This game is very alike as it's PS4 counterpart expect that the PS4 version which includes the expansion pack which will also be available on the Vita for only $3.99 which isn't a bad deal.

- Microsoft announces Age of Empires: World Domination on Mobile

Age of Empires: World Domination
* = This means our sources for factual evidence, that's right we 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.

This is our first look on what the game may offer and while I expected probably amazing graphics and that nice well polished Age of Empires vibe, I saw this. I sure hope this game isn't in beta yet, graphically speaking the game looks like a disgrace to the Age of Empires series. Yes I know many of you will say that its due to the limits in  mobile games but this is no excuse.

Microsoft, one of the biggest tech giants so why would they put Klab behind the game series? By the way KLab Games is the actual company who they are working with but for KLabs this is a big step since its something outside their comfort zone. However for the series this could be the biggest misstep.

Probably the thing that frightens us the most is that the trailer promises "an all new battle system reimagined for mobile". So hopefully it doesn't change to much because although mobile has its limitations it has never stopped companies like Gameloft from bringing ground breaking titles, so let's hope for the best that KLab doesn't drop the ball.

We'd also like to point out that the DS version of Age of Empires which came out 2008 looks way better which really says a lot.

- Microsoft talks more about upcoming Xbox One features for April update

* = This means our sources for factual evidence, that's right we 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.


Microsoft has talked about some worthy mentions in the up coming update this April.
The one getting the most attention is the ability for the Xbox One to reboot itself after system updates, and the ability for users to manually search for and install new updates.

For those who are in the "Testing new features " program should see these updates in the next few days.

Another notable feature in the update is that it will bring back the notifications for friends who sign and start a game. The update also includes improvements to the Kinect, GameDVR, and the display of game saves.

We’re committed to delivering innovation through system updates," said Xbox spokesperson Larry 'Major Nelson' Hryb, "and I can’t say enough how integral fan feedback is to this process. Some features previewed won’t always make it to launch right away because we want to help ensure the best experience for our fans before pushing a new feature."

- DirectX 12 is on the way, but Windows 7 not confirmed to get it?

* = This means our sources for factual evidence, that's right we 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 GDC comes to an end, we are here to fill you in on what we saw and experienced!

Microsoft has just announced that DirectX 12, which is the latest version of the company's graphics APIs, at the 2014 Game Developers Conference. What was pretty surprising is that many existing computers, smartphones, and even the Xbox One will see boosts in performance when the new tools arrive. Usually when new versions of DirectX are released they promise users beautiful graphics for your games in exchange of letting go some big bucks to get the latest chips. However, Microsoft has said that DirectX 12 will run on their existing chips. Microsoft however declined to answer to the public whether or not DX12 will support Windows 7.

Somethings that were not cleared up were how much of a performance improvement will we be seeing on Xbox One games, Smartphones or PCs. They showed some charts showing that the APIs could halve the time a single CPU core spends on a task by offloading it to the GPU, and claims that DX12 can lead to using less power towards graphics processing on smart phones as well. 

Microsoft says DX12 games will arrive around 2015, however we can expect to see some previews available later this year.

- Xbox One's new bundle removes price disadvantage and $50

* = This means our sources for factual evidence, that's right we 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.

*Walmart and Best Buy have started selling the Xbox One console bundled with a copy of Titanfall for $450, that makes it at par with Sony's PlayStation 4 if not cheaper due to game price increases for Next Gen Console games.

Sure the bundle next to a PlayStation 4 alone doesn't make it less but a PlayStation 4 bundled with PlayStation Plus is $450, and a PlayStation 4 bundled with Infamous: Second Son is at $460. If compared between game bundles the Xbox One is indeed $10 cheaper.

*Titanfall Bundle includes: 
The Xbox One console
Kinect sensor
Wireless controller
Chat headset
HDMI cable
1-month Xbox Live Gold membership
Titanfall game download—note that it’s a download

* = This means our sources for factual evidence, that's right we 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.  (And my smashing grammar) 

Here's something we don't see every day, GTA IV! Commonly seen on the news as of late is Rockstar's most popular game GTA V. This weekend Steam announced that they would be doing deals on Rockstar games which didn't seem all that new but then this came up and guess for how much. $7.49*! While GTA V floods the internet, Rockstar slid this deal beneath it, with little to not much promotion aside from Steams promos. Either way, get on Steam and Check out this amazing deal.

- PlayStation 4 approaches 6 million sold!


* = (UPDATE) This means our sources for factual evidence, that's right we 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. (And my smashing grammar)

The PlayStation 4 launched in Japan on Saturday and as of recent released statistics* the PlayStation 4 has sold over 322,083 units. This now bumps up the PlayStation 4 closer towards the 6 million sales, with Xbox One following at 3.5 million sales. The PlayStation 4 also did better than the Wii U at launch (Only pulled in 308,570 at launch). However at the end no system has yet matched the Nintendo Wii (371,936; at launch) and PS2 (630,522; at launch) sales.

Within the past two weeks the PlayStation sold 5.3 million units world wide, as of now it is confirmed to have reached over 5.4 million units sold. Japan truly helped pull in some numbers.

- Activision announced a new Transformers game, but under a different studio?


Activision and Hasbro have stepped out and announced that a brand new Transformers game is on the way, which will be timed to coincide with the release of Micheal Bay's fourth film in the series, Transformers: Age of Extinction. The game, titled Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark, will be released for the Nintendo 3DS, PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Wii U, Xbox 360, and Xbox One this June.

Activision has also said that Rise of the Dark Spark will also follow-up to both previous video games Transformers: War for Cybertron and Transformers: Fall of Cybertron. The game is set to feature over 40 playable characters and that it will be a third-person action-adventure game. Players will be allowed to choose between playing as Autobots and Decepticons in their fight to secure the Dark Spark.

The game has two modes that are currently known, Escalation which is basically a wave-based survival mode and Single Player which plays through the games' campaign. 

The game is being developed by Edge of Reality ( the developer of the recent Loadout game), which shifts gears with Activision since High Moon Studios isn't in charge of this game. High Moon Studios is known for bringing us the well-received Transformers: Fall of Cybertron and Transformers: War on Cybertron. They later went on to create the flop Deadpool which didn't fare as well as their previous games but it was pretty funny. After that Activision let go of over 40 High Moon employees.

Hopefully Edge of Reality can live up to the predecessors of the Transformers games and deliver another well-received title.

- New Tony Hawk game underway?

[tony-hawks-project-8-20060508055315668.jpg]

After four years of no Tony Hawk games, Tony accidentally talks a bit too much on US radio.

In the past years Tony Hawk hasn't gotten a full fledged game since Activision pulled the plug due to the poor sales and reviews on the games, "Tony Hawk: Ride" and "Tony Hawk: Shred". Adding on the fact that Activision made a small arcade release of Tony Hawk HD, people were skeptic to believe a new series may have been underway.

We all are aware that Activision doesn't like leaking out information on their games, as many of us remember the whole Bungie and Activision partnership to put together Destiny. However Tony Hawk specifically stated this, "We're working on a game, we are working on a game, it's pretty cool!". After Tony stated that nothing happened until IGN managed to get a confirmation out of the publisher Activision.

"Activision can confirm that they have something in the works with Tony Hawk, more info is coming soon," was Activision's response.

It had been quite commonly known that Tony Hawk's video games series was on of the biggest franchises around from the Pro Skater series up Proving Ground. The key thing we'd like to point out is that the games stuck with the same Tony Hawk vibe and not picking any favorites but American Wasteland was probably the best one, (Yes I'm biased). Each year brought a new Tony Hawk sequel to the franchise until Tony Hawk: Ride and Tony Hawk: Shred changed the style of the game and brought poor reviews and low sales, as previously stated.

It's quite obvious that after two flops like that Activision will most definitely not take a turn down that road again, and thus brings us back to the upcoming Tony Hawk game. Many fans are interested which way they are planning to take this series, it has been commonly known that EA's Skate is one of the most popular ones out there and has set a high benchmark in what skateboarding game fans like. All we can do now is wait and see when more news on the game is released.
