Minecraft Adventure Update 1.8!

Here is an awesome video preview showing off EVERYTHING from the new adventure update, or update 1.8!

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine, Trailer

Warhammer is a universe that used to only be in the real time strategy genre, however the game is now transforming into a completely 3rd person shooter type of game. It looks a lot like Gears of War. Go ahead and watch the videos. Unfortunately, it doesn't look anywhere nearly as fun as Gears of War... I haven't played GoW, but it definitely looks a lot funner than this... I think they should have stuck with making RTS games... But who knows, maybe it'll turn out to be awesome! That would be great.

WoW Cataclysm, Cinematic Trailer and Parody

I know that this expansion came out months ago, but this trailer is still freaking awesome! Plus... there is a parody song below the real trailer that is hilarious and awesome at the same time!

Gears of War 3, Multiplayer Beta

Here are some things that were revealed by platformnation.com about the Gears of War 3 Multiplayer Beta:

There are four maps to play on, there are unlockables for the full game, three game modes to play, getting experience from doing almost anything (so you can level up and get cool stuff!), medals unlocked by doing different goals and... it's lag free, because of dedicated servers. These are awesome features!



Here is how to get some of the unlockables:

• Cole Train (playable character) : Play 50 matches in Beta to unlock him, then Play 10 matches as him to unlock Cole for the full game.
• Golden Retro Lancer : Play 90 matches to unlock it, get 100 kills with it to unlock it for the full game

Sony and Microsoft, 360 and PS3 have three years left, Nintendo announcing new console

Microsoft and Sony both seem to have announced that they will keep up with the 360 and PS3 until 2014, which is another three years. Nintendo is going to be announcing their console in a few weeks; here is a design I found of it that might or might not be real.

If this is the real design, then this means that we won't have to look at a four way split screen on a television; we can just look at our own controller and see ourselves. We can make sure the other players aren't peeking at our screens and make it more fair for everyone! This will make this console have a different advantage than anyone else, and if it's patented, then that means they'll stay ahead for a long time - maybe. It just  depends on whether people end up liking this.

Apple, 187,000,000 iOS devices sold

Apple revealed during a lawsuit that they have sold 187,000,000 iOS devices. These devices include the iPhone,  iPad and iPod Touches. There are numbers on each one of them below. I am surprised to see how many iPads that they have sold - mostly because of the high price on them. The iPhones I'm not so surprised about, because they were considered the ultimate phone for a while, before Android phones came along...

The numbers that were revealed are only the amount sold through March, 2011; so by now, they could technically be much higher... and also include the iPad 2.

iPhone: 108,000,000
iPod: 60,000,000
iPad: 19,000,000


Why aren't there more video games for a phone, the iPhone, that has sold this much? I haven't seen anything big be released on them except for Angry Birds, but it's on Android and everything else, too. So I really do wonder why I haven't heard of any big releases or very popular games released for it. Maybe it's just because the iPhone isn't made specifically for gaming like the 360 or PS3, but I've seen amazing games on PC and Mac which are exclusive to desktop computers - so why not the iPhone? All well, I don't have one, so I don't care.

God of War 4, Coming in September, 2012?

God of War III

God of War 4 is rumored to be coming out in Fall of next year; according to GameSpot, Sony is said to be releasing it this Fall. God of War 3 sold 1,000,000 copies very quickly, and so it would make sense that they would want to continue this very profitable series.

I'm just wondering if people will be wanting to play it; the reason people played God of War 3 was because it was the end of the God of War series, or at least the end of the current storyline. They have stated that they wanted to do more games in the same universe; but, will that mean we won't have the same characters, anymore?

God of War II

Only time will tell what is going to happen. Play God of  War 3 if you're wondering what happened at the end of the game to wrap things up.

Gears of War 3 Beta, starts today

Gears of War 3's Beta was announced a while back; people were able to buy Bulletstorm Epic Edition to get a key or win a key from multiple other sources. Now, the beta is finally going to be starting on the same day that Portal 2 is released. I wonder which one people will choose to play?

Gears of War 3's beta can be accessed by everyone who pre-ordered the game, but not just yet; they won't be able to access it until next Monday, on April 25th.Gears of War 3 has three different game modes and four different maps. All of the game modes are multiplayer, since the entire beta is just a multiplayer beta.

Team Deathmatch: Just a normal deathmatch game, killing each other; you'll be on a team and fight the other team, killing them to get the most kills. The team with the most kills wins.

King of the Hill: Teams have to defend a specific area on the map until a time limit is expired.

Capture the Leader: Capture the enemy's team leader and hold them for a certain amount of time; the team leader can be freed by killing the one that captured the leader.

The four maps are called Thrashball, Trenches, Oldtown and Checkout. I've made two other blog posts on these maps. 

OLDTOWN and CHECKOUT

THRASHBALL and TRENCHES

Gears of War 3 will be released September, 2011 (North America).

Uncharted 3, Beta starts on June 28th

Uncharted 3 is getting a Beta soon, and that means that PS3 owners will also get an exclusive beta, like 360 owners. 360 owners get the Gears of War 3 Beta, which is coming soon as well. Uncharted 3's beta will feature the new multiplayer mode from Uncharted 3.

Uncharted 3 is about Drake searching for a lost city. The game will now feature stereoscopic 3D among a bunch of other new features, like the different and amazing multiplayer that is going to be in this third part of this series.

New Features of Uncharted 3 Multiplayer:

• Single 360 Split Screen
• Single-player-campaign-like multiplayer levels
• Character Customization
• Joining Games in Progress

Gears of War 3 Beta, win a FREE beta key

I have searched around the internet for ways to get a beta key for Gears of War 3; there is the option of buying the Bulletstorm Epic Edition, or you can simply win it for FREE from one of these contests. There is no reason to buy stuff, unless you can afford it; you are guaranteed to get a beta key if you buy Bulletstorm Epic Edition, but not if you enter a contest.

So here are a few different places to visit to figure out about how to win a FREE beta key, instead of having to buy your way in. You can like them on FaceBook (like all four of their pages) OR send a status on Twitter with hashtag #Gears3Beta
