The DRM-Free Revolution

Finally Some Good News for the Vita

Sony has mandated Vita Remote Play for all upcoming PS4 games – except those that require the use of its bundled stereoscopic camera, the PS4 Eye.

And later confirmed via twitter [https://twitter.com/yosp/status/339697948646572032]:

John Leguizamo Talks About Super Mario Movie

May the fungus be among us

Its hard to believe it’s already been 20 years since the Super Mario Brothers movie. Nevertheless, it’s always fun hearing the horror stories that came creating the film. Rumor has it, to this very day it’s still the reason Nintendo refuses to make another game inspired movie.

Yahoo Acquires Gaming Company PlayerScale

PlayerScale, a cross-platform game infrastructure startup that provides tools for games played by 150 million users on platforms such as iOS and Android, announced the acquisition on its site today. And — unlike recent Yahoo acquisitions like Astrid – CEO Jesper Jensen said the company would continue to operate as it has, supporting over 2,600 developers and 4,000 games.

Their sudden push into mobile gaming is rather intriguing. I think we’ll see a lot more games related acquisitions by Yahoo

Xbox One & PS4 Hardware Analysis & Comparison

Both the Xbox One and Playstation 4 have very similar hardware, with the PS4 having a slight edge in terms of raw power, and the Xbox having the edge in power consumption. It’s too early to tell the clear ‘winner’ just yet, but with both consoles using an x86 architecture, it will make most likely porting games to the PC much easier than the last generation of games.

Dont Expect a New Alan Wake Anytime Soon

Sam Lake, Creative Director takes to Youtube to talk a little about the future of Remedy and Alan Wake. Sadly it sounds like Alan Wake didn’t sell enough copies to merit a true sequel, but it was received well enough for Microsoft to throw a pile of money their way for a new IP (Quantum Break).

I loved Alan Wake. It was probably one of my favorite games to come out of this generation of titles. And even though I’m disappointed it will be quite some time before I get to play a new game of the fr

Wired: Exclusive First Look at Xbox One

Peter Rubin:

We have no idea what the videogame landscape will look like seven years from now, just as we had no idea in 2005 how foundationally streaming and smartphones would change everything. The very concept of any physical media box may well be obsolete within a decade. But even if this is the last true console we ever see, one thing is for sure: Gaming isn’t just games anymore.
