I am in San Francisco right now and met up with my GS buddy. He may get to try the VR helmet tomorrow of later this week. Says it has some really sweet tech that will give the rift a run for its money.

He says batman arkham knight looks kind of like that CG trailer, says it’s amazing in motion.

He saw the next call of duty, will be pretty different he claims.

I finally got a chance to play titanfall, wow it’s a blast. The mechs are so much fun. It does seem like a simple game though. Amazingly he says zampella told him they have no plans for titanfall 2 yet and are just focusing on dlc. I bet that’s bullshit.

Oh and he says peter molyneux is a nice guy.

I thought that Sony VR thing was just a $4000 thing for watching movies. Not to do with games.  Look forward to impressions.

~~Project Morpheus prototype is capable of both positional and rotational head tracking across 360 degrees, with a 1080p display and a 90 degree field of view. The prototype can be tracked by the same hardware that tracks the DualShock 4 and the Move controllers, though Project Morpheus must be connected to a PlayStation 4 via cable and Sony currently has no plans to build a wireless version.

The prototype actually has a breakout box between the headset and the PS4, which can split the signal out onto another display — like your TV. By default this allows people in the room to follow the headset wearer’s experiences, but Mikhailov suggests that it might also allow for interesting asymmetric game design — developers could build a local multiplayer game where one player, wearing the headset, plays the hero while her friends control the monsters by watching the screen.

The Project Morpheus is already capable of running multiple gameplay demos, including a simple castle exploration demo, a version of CCP’s EVE: Valkyrie space dogfighting game, and a limited version of Eidos’ first-person stealth game Thief.

~~A release date and price for Project Morpheus have yet to be announced but given the product's early state, don't expect to see it this side of Christmas.

~~Component: Processor unit, head-mounted unit

Display Method: LCD

Panel Size: 5 inches

Panel Resolution: 1920×RGB×1080 (960×RGB×1080 per eye)

Field of View: 90 degrees

Sensors: Accelerometer, Gyroscope

Connection interface: HDMI + USB

Function: 3D audio, Social Screen

Unless it's under £100 it can go fuck itself up the ass. Considering Sony's previous HMD was $800 that's not happening.

I'll wait till it's cheap enough to be bundled as standard with every console. Till then this is for Richie Rich assholes and Sony fans.

BTW the system says it uses the same systems for tracking movement as PS Move, so I guess the PS Eye will be required for use?

Sticker Star is no more kiddie than the previous Papef Mario's.

Well not so much as kiddie but from what I've heard it sounds like that it was too stripped down and very shallow compared to previous Paper Mario's.

Windows 8.1 update has borked IE in many ways for use on this site. One of the quirks is that when copying text those two symbols are auto inserted at the front. angry Another quirk, any pop up box from the editor will appear but never be closed. Also cannot just copy/paste images anymore. In fact cannot post pics at all unless done from the html source code.

Igarashi sad he couldn't give fans what they wanted, details project plans going forward

"I was frustrated with myself, but it's kind of disappointing that during this time (at Konami), the fans were constantly saying 'We want more core 2D Metroidvania experiences' and I was, of course, in trying this new foray, unable to appease them to make them happy as well. I couldn't make the transition but I also couldn't continue to make the games I wanted to make. So there was some disappointment.

If you just look at my strengths, most likely it will be an action game. Of course, fans would like a 2D exploration sort of game, a Metroidvania-type game. That's definitely something i'm interested in to make them happy. But, probably much to fans' chagrin, I'm frustrated that I have been unable to make a really good 3D game as well. That's something I want to eventually truly conquer, because it has continually defeated me."

~~One of this fall's big Assassin's Creed games, called or code-named Unity, is set at least partly in 18th-century Paris, according to early leaked screenshots obtained by Kotaku.

These screenshots, sent to me by a source who requested anonymity, show Unity's new assassin roaming around what appears to be Paris. You can see Notre Dame, the Seine River, and other Parisian landmarks, and the shots are very clearly from an early version of the game.

What's more, this is just one of two major Assassin's Creed games that will be out later this year, according to a number of sources. Unity will be for the current-gen consoles—Xbox One and PS4—while a second game, possibly called or code-named Comet, will be released on Xbox 360 and PS3. Presumably one or both versions will also be on PC. Sorry, Nintendo fans: I haven't yet heard anything about Wii U.

Ah ok. I thought that it was some new thing to denote a type of article like how black is 'breaking news' or important.

man I'm having a decent week, I found out I'm finally well from my illness back in Nov.    I found a great site to sell older games to cashforgames, they take gamecube,PS1, PS2 and just about any other old games you want to sell and they give decent prices. I'm selling them about 65 GC, PS1, and PS2 games for for $658 I will now be able to buy a PS4 and some games. It's only  small selection of rare type games out of my collection that I really don't care about except for the Gamecube Zelda collectors discs which I have a little remorse about but 20 each for both of them is fair. I'm hyped to get a PS4 knowing a bunch of good stuff is coming soon!

Good to here you're better Bear. Nothing like a clean bill of health for peace of mind.

So what's the site for the cash for games? I've got a bunch of GC games sitting around that I won't get around to playing (even if I did have a GC controller).

Check it out great prices! For GC games if you have some of the rare ones! Well I just looked on Ebay where they are selling for twice as much but I can't do the whole ebay thing, plus PS 1 games not getting much on Ebay. I f I had the patience and mobility I would sell on ebay for more, but this is all in one package they pay the shipping to them. To ship each item on Ebay and sell each sure twice the money and all but a 1000 times the hassle.
