The World Needs You!

The Gaming news for the week:
  • Valve has announced that they will not be announcing anything new at E3 this year. They state that they will be talking about stuff we have already heard of. They are talking about Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and Dota 2. I hope that is just a marketing ploy to keep peoples eye of them while they work on Half-Life 3 and Left 4 Dead 3. I would be happy hearing about either game.
  • After much speculation of who will Assume the Da Vinci Role in Assassin's Creed 3, it has been confirmed that Benjamin Franklin will not play that role. From an interview, Ubisoft states that Benjamin Franklin just wasn't that type of inventor. I agree, but there needs to be somebody that makes the cool stuff for Conner. Also, I would find it funny if that added a character named Johnny Tremain in the game.
  • For anyone who wants to see Microsoft's E3 press release, I have good news for you. Microsoft has announced that they will be streaming it live on to your Xbox 360 and on Spike TV on Monday June 4th at 12:30 PST. Even though Microsoft says they will not be announcing the next generation console, it will still be packed with cool stuff.
  • Here is the official cover of Madden NFL 13 with Calvin Johnson:

  • There still might be hope for a game for The Avengers. Ubisoft just registered an new domain for The Avengers that suggest that they are working on a game for the Box Office Hit. Until Ubisoft confirms it, I would not worry to much about the game.
  • Here is the announcement trailer for The Elder Scrolls Online:

    The only bad news is that it will only be for Mac and PC players.
  • New Dead Space 3 rumors have been released. Issac Clarke will have have a new companion that will help guide him through the Campaign. There are a few rumors that suggest that there will be drop-in/drop-out Co-Op for the game. There also might be improved mobility in the game.
  • Here is something you Assassin's Creed 3 fans might enjoy:

Skyrim just got Awesomerer!

Today's bit of Gaming News:
  • Half-Life Easter Eggs found in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. Check out the pictures down below. 
  • Skyrim PC mods are out and some of them are really funny. Here are 2 of my favorites: Skyrim My Little Pony Dragon Mod and (Skyrim) Macho Dragon Mod
  • The 1999 mode in BioShock Infinite will challenge ever gaming skill you have and you will die A LOT!
  • Rumor: Xbox Live is moving away from Microsoft points. Microsoft thinks it will be a little safer with all of the hacked accounts and stolen money issues they have been having. If this happens it will be a smart idea, putting an actual price on DLCs and avatar items is smart.
  • Another Rumor: Rocksteady Studios, the people behind the Batman games, is rumored to be working on a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. If it is true and is at any caliber as the Batman games, i'm pretty sure that the game will be awesome.
  • LittleBigPlanet 2 got some new visitors last week. In the new DLC that was released yesterday new costumes and levels were released around the theme of The Muppets. If you have this game and own a PlayStation 3 this a must own DLC. Check out the Trailer for the DLC here: LittleBigPlanet: The Muppets Premium Level Kit
  • LEGO is now developing Minecraft kits. Smart movie by LEGO since there are over 20 Million registered Minecraft users.
  • Yet another rumor: The Xbox 720 will be 6 times faster then the 360. Now that everything is in HD its smart to make a console that only runs in HD (thats why I think it will be 6 time faster.) I then expect more and more games that are so clear and good that they look and feel real. Microsoft still has not confirmed this rumor though.
  • Apple has sold over 50 Million iOS devices in 3 months. Crazy right, Apple is still the #1 Mobile Gaming device in the world.
