Well last night sure was interesting, amirite? But for good or bad, there’s one thing that the Xbox One reveal did right: It created discussion. Discussion that we haven’t had in years now. And I’m happy because of such vigorous master debating, yes I am.

Are we all wrong about the Xbox One?

May 22, 2013 at 3:30 pm | 85 Comments

There’s currently a lot of internet negativity amongst core gamers about the next generation Xbox, The Xbox One. Gamers seems to have their panties in a twist over the used games thing, the implied DRM and the lack of games shown. they’re also largely unimpressed that the console seems to be more service oriented than focused on games. That’s the impression you’d get reading reading just about any gaming website.

Comparing the Xbox One to the Playstation 4

May 22, 2013 at 2:30 pm | 53 Comments

At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter who has the most RAM, jigglywatts or Kinections when it comes to gaming. It’s all about the experience that is earned from saving the day on the big screen. Right now though, you lot don’t care and want to see some numbers instead. FINE! Here ya go!

Xbox One: What about the games?

May 22, 2013 at 2:00 pm | 34 Comments

If there was one thing missing from Microsoft’s Xbox One (or Xbone, if you like) event, it was popular, mainstream rappers. It was also missing something quite important for a games console…and that’s games. We know it’s getting Call of Duty, Forza and a new, exclusive, Remedy IP called Quantum Break. But what else can Xboners expect on their console entertainment service set-top boxes?

Here’s what we think about the Xbox One

May 22, 2013 at 12:45 pm | 80 Comments

So last night Xbox revealed the future of the Xbox brand and the new name, which took us by  surprise. The new Xbox is going to be called the Xbox One and this is what we think about it.

Who was that cheering in the Xbox One press conference

May 22, 2013 at 12:00 pm | 34 Comments

So the Xbox One was revealed last night in a flashy event in Redmond and one thing that was noticeable throughout the event was the spontaneous applause and cheers throughout the event. But was this American exuberance or something more sinister?

Meet a soldier’s best friend in Call of Duty Ghosts

May 22, 2013 at 11:15 am | 50 Comments

So the cat is out of the bag, and now everyone knows that I wasn’t just cycling around Venice Beach trying to find Tenacious D last week. Call of Duty Ghosts is aiming to step things up a notch for the franchise later this year, and while baysplosions and 60 frames per second are par for the course as with any COD title. There is something else that’s new as well. Military trained killer attack German Shepard dogs. And their cute dog goggles. Or doggles. Ha!

Call of Duty Ghosts – Paranormal Attacktivity

May 21, 2013 at 8:00 pm | 26 Comments

It’s a hot day in Los Angeles, and it’s even hotter in the massive bus that we’ve all been bundled into, as we make our way to go grab an exclusive peek at the upcoming Call of Duty Ghosts, as well as two other Activision games that we can’t mention just yet. It’s a new era for gaming, and with Call of Duty having influenced the current-gen for better or for worse, a new start for that franchise as well.

We’ll be updating as news arrives, so stay awhile, and listen!

Ok guys, I get it. It’s big news today. While my Twitter feed is usually filled with really, really bad jokes on a daily basis, today has been different. Everyone is talking Xbox, and we’ll be covering that event later tonight. And somehow, we’ll still most likely break a law or two, even though most of us are not at the event.

Another “Violent Games are Evil” report busted

May 21, 2013 at 3:30 pm | 27 Comments

I don't want to be mean, but it's not as if people expect high-end journalism from the Katie Couric.  She was brought on to American TV to be young and peppy, but needs to transition into showing she has a brain in order to stay relevant as she ages.  I get it. However, she REALLY missed the mark in her reporting on violent video games, and she knows it.

The PS3 is only 50 034 units behind the Xbox 360

May 21, 2013 at 2:30 pm | 19 Comments

The Xbox 360 got off to a flying start in this generation with the PlayStation 3 preferring to stay at home perfecting its make up before leaving for the race. By year 3 the Xbox 360 was miles ahead of the PS3 and unbelievably it decided to take a nap.

Are we getting a Syndicate Wars sequel?

May 21, 2013 at 1:30 pm | 42 Comments

EA and Starbreeze relatively recently revived the good name of Syndicate – and then sullied it by releasing a decent, but flawed first-person shooter that capitalised on the brand’s name, without any of the good bits. Of course, shooters  are popular and squad-based isometric strategy games aren’t. Firaxis’ XCOM: Enemy Unknown reboot came along and changed that – and now we might be getting a sequel (or rather, spiritual successor) to Syndicate Wars.

Hands on preview with Call of Juarez: Gunslinger

May 21, 2013 at 12:30 pm | 7 Comments

Many things can be said about the previous title in the Call of Juarez series, unfortunately since this is a respectful site not many of them can be reproduced here. So when a preview disc for Call of Juarez: Gunslinger landed on my desk I can’t say I was ecstatic about the opportunity.  how wrong I was.
