REVIEWS GRiD 2 Review
Grid 2 surprised me. I was going through the motions, getting used to the cars and their handling, when suddenly something happened. I started having fun.

State of Decay Review
Undead Lab's zombie-infested action title has finally hit XBLA. Is it worth a few of your precious Microsoft Points, or should you whack it over the head with a two-by-four and continue on your merry way?

E3: PC or rather about the lack of it

E3 2013 has been very silent for me. There's tons of media, but most of it buzzes past my ears without them catching the important keyword that my ears are fine tuned to receive: "PC" or "Personal Computer". Microsoft, Sony, EA and Ubisoft have all shown their cards...

Get Another Look At The PlayStation 4's Interface

Posted on Thursday, February 28 @ 10:45:55 Eastern by Alex_Osborn


Sony has released a handful of images of the PlayStation 4's user interface for your viewing pleasure. As you can see in the image above, it looks like Sony has borrowed the horizontal panel style from the Xbox 360 dashboard. However, unlike Microsoft's current UI, Sony's interface appears to be incredibly simple and clean. Let's just hope it stays that way.

During the PS4 event, Sony mentioned that you'll be able to access the PlayStation Network on a number of other devices including tablets and smartphones. Here's a glimpse at what that will look like on a tablet:



And a smartphone: 


What do you think of Sony's new interface? Do you think it will be able to compete with whatever Microsoft dreams up for the next-gen Xbox? Let us know in the comments below.

    It's ridiculous. I understand ads on a free product. But we pay for the Xbox and pay for Xbox Live. It just doesn't add up.

    I think it is just not possible and I call this a fraud. There are two paradoxes exposed here, and they're both in the second image. Do you think I believe that you, as a gamer, happen to have two hot chicks as friends that also play that videogame? And did you think I would fall in your trap and not realize that there are four pictures of your friends though it says only three of your friends own the game?

    EVERYTHING IS A LIE!!!! BURN THEM ALL!!!

    you hit it on the head! where do they get the idea that this is something people actually want? I'm not embarrassed about my gaming, but telling everyone on facebook I just got another trophy? No thanks, not only do i not care about the trophy, no one else does either.

    that being said, Sony's machine does seem a bit more focused on actual gaming than the other 2, but it's starting to get really gray

    Agreed it seems they've really made it easy to develop for, (and I mean going by the specs, she is one sexxy beast I must say lol) which is gonna be great for devs. And I will admit I would probably get a PS4 just for thet deep down game, for me it was the best game shown, (even though there wasn't much to show lol). As far as the other 2 go, at the very least WiiU seems to embrace the social aspect, but still keep it grounded in gaming, being able to leave notes and things to help your friends sounds like a pretty cool feature. I don't know much about what the 720 has in store, hopefully it doesn't require a mandatory Facebook and Twitter account to play games lol.

    So....they took the new PS Store design...which was *very* similar to the the Xbox's UI....that a lot of people *hated*...and made it the interface for everything?

    Sounds legit. Gaming really isn't for gamers anymore.
    Also, partnering with Facebook, considering their reputation with security, was a great move Sony.
    Ya know, since your reputation is just as great.

    Not to break up the party, but for you guys who don't like the whole social media deal... You can just ignore it and play the games I imagine...

    I wonder if I can use my phone to tell my PS4 to download updates and or download games while I'm at work, so that when I come home its all ready to go. Is that what their trying to do aside from all the social media? It would be a cool feature.

    I'm taking Kojima's stance of optimism about the possibilities social access could affect games. For instance, what if you could use an app for phone or tablet to set traps or disable cameras for your friends on the next Metal Gear game. Take control of some zombie in a friends Resident Evil game a eat them. There are good ideas and hopefully developers won't just rely on status updates to sell games.
