Uncharted Golden Abyss (Vita) Average experience that got better towards the end, i almost quit as the levels in the first 1/3 of the game were dull. Also the gunplay is never that much fun at the beginning of an uncharted game as you always start out with shit/weak/unaccurate weapons, it gets alot more enjoyable when you start getting the desert eagles and the M4s and the grenade launchers with the running and the screaming. The game is super cut scene heavy, even for an uncharted game, which was pretty annoying. And another thing that was highly highly irritating is the game is linked to a separate top trumps style card game that needs to be purchased off the PSN store for about £4, these cards are all linked to a collectable in Golden Abyss (of which there are many) i must have got 200+ notification throughout the game that i had levelled up one of top trump cards for a game i didn't even own. grrrrr Wouldn't really recommend it, but as its free on PS+ if you've got nothing else better to do there is fun to be had. But definitely not essential playing, not even for uncharted fans as the writing is sub par Stealth Inc (Vita) Again free on PS+. Half twitch based platformer half puzzle game. New mechanics get introduced throughout keeping the game relatively fresh. Again not essential playing, but it is a lot of fun and rewarding. The game is sort of like the flip side of Mark of the Ninja, probably quite similar at the conceptual stage but taken in complete different directions

GTA 5's Leaked Xbox 360 Data Reveals PC, PS4 Build Code http://m.neogaf.com/showthread.php?t=678177

Like Briad with GUNS! Oh I seem to have thrown up on myself Looks like a fun little distraction. I don't really understand the (what i perceive to be) joke name for something so aesthetically sterile. And I've become a hipster video game snob

I just hope the UI is very minimal this time round. This was probably my biggest gripe with AssCreed3, there was so much shit slapped all over the screen, I found it really distracting.

So what happens if GTAV5 is just a bit average?

Thats magnificent! We used to play the shit out of that mini golf game. Was it on the Amiga? What was it called arrrgg HAHA yes

Gears of War: Judgment – Microtransactions Include Double XP Packsvideo gamer has now confirmed that one of the items in the in-game store is a ‘double XP’ boost. The temporary boost in XP gain comes in variant packs ranging between 80 Microsoft Points and 800 Microsoft Points. The 80 Microsoft Points pack will net you a 10 Match double XP boost, for 320 MSP you will get a 50 Match Pack, 560 MSP will get you a 100 Match Pack and finally a 200 Match Pack will be for 800 MSP. XP is used to unlock character and weapon skins in the game. Many who perhaps have lesser time to give to the game, can make use of a XP boost kit. Also apparently the season pass includes Permanent double XP. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=525570

Dat next G foliage

ÜBER BONUS! It's 6:30pm and I've only just realised its Thursday and not Wednesday! Somehow I lost a whole day of my life... Yay! Now that I think about it that's kinda worrying

BAM

"hot dogs" should really be called "chicken knees" And I always have 1 and a half hot dogs per bun. you're not living life to the fullest if you abide by a 1 dog per bun rule. Come on people, you need to turn it up a notch

Dat blurry rock texture. And less treeeeees I'm holding out for the version with maximum foliage

"I rate this new reader three and a half Jake GaGaGa heads"

Maybe they're keeping quiet about it as the next question will be "if they've created a fancy PC version with nicer textures and shit, why can't they port that to next gen consoles" (I know i'd be asking that) Riddle me this! If there was indeed no plans to ever create a next gen version, would the PC version have been announced be now?

Playing fighting games like SF4 at a high level is nothing but bluffing and baiting Also, about dong's in video games. Bizarrely i woke up this morning thinking about nudity in video games before i even listened to the podcast. Specifically willys. (although i haven't played it) Saints Row 4 seems like it would be the perfect game for some male nudity, i can imagine your player character totally naked leaping over a skyscraper with a 12inch cock and balls flapping about in the wind. Inject some rag doll physics and 100 points of articulations and hilarity will ensue. Obviously this wont be happening in a retail game anytime soon hmmm, i wonder if there'll be any sex in Beyond two Souls, Its turned up in all his other games. Dave Cage is a smutty bastard. So i've never actually bothered to watch this trailer, i'm just posting it because of the thumbnail image, looks like there could be some lovin. Cool, you get to play as a little girl, you get guide her and watch her grow up, then you get to see her tits

I kneeeeew it! Andrew House: Vita TV can "technically" support streaming PS3 games via Gaikai http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=675997 Listening to the podcast this morning about the Vita TV's lack of touch screen support got me thinking about how most vita games use the touch screen in some way, so in time i think you'll find that the actually focus of the gaming side of this thing will be the streaming of PS2 and PS3 games annnnnnnnnnnd it's not coming to the West http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/200079/PS_Vita_TV_is_not_coming_to_the_West__at_least_not_yet.php At least not yet, they'll blatantly wait until all the game streaming shenanigans goes live.

Just seen a tweet from Mike Rose who's been playing and filming the alpha build
