Microsoft opened it’s E3 presentation with Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain. All we have to say is DYAAAAMMNN. This is a must get launch title.

Reminiscant of 300, it’s a sword slinging game set in ancient Rome. It is exclusive to Xbox One. The graphics were sick,…

E3 - 2013

OK, we have a little nerd in us, we admit. This is one of our favorite times of the year. This year’s E3 (Electronic Entertainment Expo) trade fair is more than just the biggest gaming event in the calendar. The event is a starting point for the next phase of living room domination, as the first set of next-gen consoles for seven years takes centre stage.

Today, during the BlackBerry Live Keynote, the company announced that it will be launching BlackBerry Messenger—BBM—on iOS and Android this Summer. Yes – you’ll soon be BBMing on your iPhones and Galaxy devices! It’s a shocking turnaround for the company, who had previously insisted that BBM would remain exclusive to its own platform.
