Everything Geek

It’s not uncommon for retailers to leak new games. This sort of thing happens all the time. Take my last post about Call of Duty Ghosts for example. But you know this was going to happen sooner or later.

Whether you’ve never played Skyrim, or you sold it and never played the DLC but have been wanting to without coughing up the extra cash here’s your chance. A collection of the game and all its DLC. The release date is supposedly June 7th. And the prices are a bit out there. $54 for console and $44 for PC. By the time it’s announced you’ll be sure to get an exact pricing for the game. 

Till then..

This is shouldn’t come as a shock especially considering what I posted a while back which you can read by clicking [here] but another Call of Duty is coming out. Multiple and I do mean multiple leaks inbound. I’ll just post a couple though.

Aside from ad leaks there is also supposed info which I will list below
I will note it hasn’t been clear if it will also be a next gen release for either the Next Box or PS4

• May 1st reveal  or following (The ad above is May 5th)
• Is MW4 but isn’t
• Dynamic Loading Screens
• Spec Ops removed, replaced with new mode
  
• More destructive environments
• Futuristic setting with current generation weaponry?
• November 5th Release

Now. if you’ve been paying attention to Activision they’ve been showing off their new Next-gen engine which will very likely be used in some Call of Duty games. 

Lastly Box-Art for Call of Duty Ghosts

What say you? Will you buy the next Call of Duty?

Without a doubt by now you have heard some of the possible features of the next iteration of the Xbox
Two of those being:

• Always online, Always connected
• No backwards compatibility

But here’s a few more things which I’ve gathered up a while back which was also bundled with the reveal being push backed to May 21st

• Windows 8 Core
• $500 for the console
• $300 for subscription based model
• Blu-ray
• Will incorporate TV somehow
• Not Durango related: A new $99 model of the Xbox 360 code-named Stingray
  

Now I can tell you these past few weeks have been almost a back and forth kind of deal on whether or not the next Xbox will be Always online or Backwards compatible as well as a slew of other rumors. Ir’s not too long till all is revealed. if you want to stay connected and watch the stream or Spike TV  check out these links below

What say you? are you getting the new Xbox or the Play Station 4?

As the months, weeks & days grew closer more and more details on the next PlayStation have surfaced from leaks of the supposed prototype controller with a built in touch screen to what looks like a move sensor above. (seen below) to Gaikai and  cloud gaming backwards compatibility (Click Here) 

Not to be forgotten with every major console announcement we need to know about games. And believe me that’s being teased from a few well known studios.  Via Twitter @SonySantaMonica

“What does our future hold for tomorrow? We heard they may open Pandoras Box (again) live on stage, that would be AWESOME #playstation2013”

Are you ready for the next generation of PlayStation? What games do you want to see?

I know, it’s been eerily silent without any details on the next generation consoles on this blog lately. Last post was probably the Project Durango (Next Xbox codename) being sold online from someone who could snag their hands on it. Xbox has tightened security up A LOT yet rumors are abound everywhere. Long story short Major Nelson is teasing a certain announcement for E3 which you can check out by clicking [here] 

On to Sony.  Sony has been sticking to their guns and is continuing with their PS3 as it still has many more years to come (take note PS2 just stopped shipping in the market not too long ago). However Sony is getting ready to announce the next PlayStation sooner rather than later, at least before Microsoft. And if Sony were to unveil at GDC in May they won’t likely be the only one with Valve getting ready to show of the Steam Box (Yes, it’s a really happening) 

Thing is, with Sony teasing a February 20th announcement when Destination PlayStation is February 25th - 28th  means it’s something important. Especially if you need to sign up to be the first to hear about it. 

I’m not going to go into details about the hardware or anything because then I’m just going to be talking nonsense. For now this is all you need to know.

Let’s go a little further in to some things not specified shall we?

Back in August Sony acquired Gaikai for $380 Million, you can read more about Gaikai and even view its timeline by clicking [here]  

Whether it’s the new PlayStation or the future of GaiKai  all will be revealed in just 20 Days. 

You can sign up for the announcement at the official site [here]

What say you? Are you ready for the next PlayStation?
