Hideo Kojima Looks Beyond Metal Gear Franchise


 Hideo Kojima has recently said he's looking beyond the Metal Gear series widely believed to be some of the very best games ever made . He also said he does not want his legacy based around being the Metal Gear guy ( not a bad thing in anybody's book ) and is working on different games in the future . His new Metal Gear game is also in development using the insane Fox engine that will make for yet another triple A title by the master himself. I think he's right in the fact that his top notch game development skill should be utilized towards different games and we look forward to what he brings because whatever it is ..... I'm positive it will be great .


Note PS Vita Owners :
Metal Gear Solid HD collection for the Vita is one of the best titles ( even though a remake) on the handheld and is highly recommended .

Call Of Duty In Decline Every Year


 As predicted here in former articles or should I say complaints... the Call Of Duty franchise is facing a steep decline in sales contrary to what mainstream media would like you to beleive and heres the proof .http://www.gamespot.com/news/call-of-duty-beginning-to-slow-says-analyst-6400782 Black Ops 2 sales started off well during launch before begining to decline and could not hold the numbers compared to Modern Warfare 3. Call Of Duty has declined on average 15% year after year in what is ultimately the consumers reaction to paying $60 for ports every year using the same old outdated graphics engine and screenovers . I know I'll be trading in my copy of BO2 before its worth $7 at gamestop very soon because this game will NOT hold any value long.
 On a brighter note however the PS3 sold 525,000 units and 160,000 PS Vita systems on black Friday..... a welcome boost to the financially hurting Sony empire . Microsoft enjoyed better numbers with around 750,000 xbox360's proving that consoles are not dead just yet even though Call Of Duty has one foot in the grave.

Square Enix's Next Gen Luminous Engine



 Square Enix has taking game development into its own hands with its new next generation graphics engine Luminous Studios's . Make no mistake Square Enix created a real beast with this new engine and after seeing it in action luminous Studio Video / GamesRadar its hard to imagine others creating a better engine to compete . Square Enix stated with authority that they do not want to be held back by the vision of others and thus the new engine that represents their vision and the direction they would like to take next gen gaming. The first game on Luminous Studio is already being developed and we can only now guess as to what it could be because they are not saying much . Trust me , click the link to the video because you will be blown away by this new engine and its capabilities .

Black Ops 2 Rage Hits The Internet


 Everywhere you look on forums you can find nothing short of hate filled rants from the players of the new Call Of Duty series Black Ops 2 . Numerous gaming websites ( including this one ) are reporting this phenomenon including the best quotes from disheveled consumers ( including one from this site ) in an apparent attempt to confront this growing revolt among fellow gamer's . It seems that all these mainstream 9/10 reviews landed on def ears as players are confronted with the reality of trying to master a flawed multiplayer . GameSplatt has covered these issues in past articles and now it seems that a majority of real life gamer's are experiencing the same problems including but not limited to horrible lag , terrible hit detection , connection problems and constant console freezing issues . Any competitive online multiplayer that requires 16 rounds of FMJ bullets from light machine gun to drop another player has some serious issues that need to be addressed but dont worry you could always use the shotguns that kill players from 40 yards away and slings their bodies 10 feet in the air .

Wii-U The End Of An Era


The Godfather of American video game consoles and founding father of the Atari Nolan Bushnell gave Nintendo a verbal beat down today when he said the following about the Wii U "I don't think its going to be a big success " then follows up with "I am actually baffled by it " and then the final smack down on the new console " feels like the end of an era " . Ouch .

Breaking : Sony Stocks Downgraded To Junk Status

Breaking News Update

 Tucked safely away from the public eye is a report that Sony's stock worth has been downgraded to "junk" . For those of you who know little about the stock markets this is very bad news for the tech giant. Junk status stocks effect a company in many different although all negative ways because it tags the stock as risky. Sony is not the only tech giant however with Panasonic also being downgraded to junk. Now the question is how this is going to effect Ps3 and Vita owners in the future ? Sony will have to try to bring in more money and allot of it . This is just a feeling but this could lead to measures like charging for Playstation Network access . Its hard to even imagine Sony's financial woes considering the amount of money I drop in my PSN store wallet ever month.

Xbox Black Ops 2 Patch Released While PS3 Suffers

 This is just amazing ...... Today on GameSpot there is an article about a new Black Ops 2 patch update available for the Xbox360 . Whats the problem then? Well the problem is the PS3 is the console that has been suffering the most problems with freezing ect . Why would they release a patch for the Xbox 360 when record numbers of PS3 users are suffering constant freezing problems , connection problems and hit detection problems ? Its starting to look official ...... Microsoft and the COD franchise are workinh together under a better "deal" than Sony . Let it be said though that all players of Black Ops 2 are ripped out of $60 anyways however you look at it . With sub-par multiplayer that hardly works , no leaderboards or kill streaks that made COD what it is today we are all ripped off $60 dollars and hate me all you want but its the truth . Have fun playing your game thats going to brick your console from freezing and corrupted files just in time for the next generation consoles .....suspicious? Yup.
