All we have to say is DYAAAAMMNN. This is a must get launch title. At first we thought it was Red Dead Redemption 2 because it as a distinctive old school western feel.

 

On the fresher side of things, a new game franchise was revealed, Ryse: Son of Rome. Reminiscant of 300, it’s a sword slinging game set in ancient Rome. It is exclusive to Xbox One. The graphics were sick, and you somewhat expected Gerard Butler to appear at any minute.

 

Motor racing fans could look forward to Forza Motorsport 5. It has a new feature called ‘Driveatar’. It is a cloud-based feature. A player’s Drivatar is a personal profile that races while players are away, accruing points for players that aren’t actually playing the game at the time.

 

Not to be left out of a Xbox Reveal, fan-favourite Master Chief made an appearance. He appeared in the snow covered in what looks to be a tattered jedi uniform. Halo for Xbox One will be released in 2014 and run in 60FPS….mmmmm smooth.

 

Other games worth checking out:

Quantum Break

 

Dead Rising 3

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.

This year however, we saw a shift with SONY and Microsoft doing their product launches some weeks ago.

But those reveals created more questions than answers. Neither revealed a full catalog of games, or said anything about prices or specific release dates. Sony didn’t even show their system.

Microsoft Launch begins at 12:30 Trinidad time.

Another thing to look out for is mobile-gaming. For the most part, we all have smart phones and it is easy to download apps for iOS and Android, not to mention cheap.

Hit us up and let us know what console you got and what games you are looking out for. Guess what’s on our minds.
