Trailer Analysis - Uncharted 4: A Thief's End - Gameplay Demo PlayStation Experience 2014

Following on from last weeks Trailer Analysis of the Uncharted 4 teaser/reveal trailer, this week I've covered the exteneded gameplay demo, that was shown at the PlayStation Experience towards the end of 2014. As far as I know the footage is captured from a PS4 and the content is likely to have been taken directly from the campaign, so those adverse to spoilers, approach with caution.

PlayStation 4 Launch Price and More, Detailed At Sony Press Conference E3 2013

 
Earlier this week the biggest event in the gaming calendar took place, in the form of the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) 2013. Every year the show is a pretty big affair, with game developers from around the world converging on LA, to pitch and discuss their upcoming releases/projects but this year was just that bit bigger. Even if you don't play videos games that often, it's highly likely that you'll be aware that this year marks the start of the next console war, as both Sony and Microsoft are due to launch new products later this year. We learnt very little about the new PS4 at Sony's February press conference but one could argue it was still better than Microsoft's first press release on the Xbox One in May. Anyway, on the opening day of E3 2013 both companies revealed further details on their new game consoles and one of the main new pieces of information was the launch price of their units. I've provided a brief summary of what Sony talked about at E3 regarding the PS4 including their proposed launch price and I've also embedded the video, just in case you fancy watching the whole thing yourself.

Plants vs. Zombies 2 Coming First To Mobile Devices [Edge Magazine Exclusive Preview Inside]

In a first look exclusive interview with Edge magazine, PopCap have discussed why it's taken soo long for a sequel to the 2009 PC sensation that was Plants vs. Zombies and what we can expect from the new title. The four year hiatus has obviously not gone unnoticed by the studio and while the games title "It's About Time" seemingly pokes fun at the fact, it's actually also the main theme behind the game, that is to say time travelling. The first piece of big news regarding PvZ2 is that it will be coming first and exclusively to mobile devices, PopCap are planning to release it for other platforms in the future but we're not given any sort of schedule. I'm actually really disappointed with this news, I do agree that PvZ was a lot of fun to play on a touch screen device but at the same time I think the PC version was a lot smoother and so that's my platform of choice. The second piece of big news (unfortunately also bad) is that PopCap are releasing PvZ2 as a free-to-play game, couple this with the fact they are now owned by EA and I bet you're starting to have reservations just like I am. Obviously it's slightly unfair to pass judgement before I've played the game but if history has taught us anything, free-to-play does not benefit the gamer and EA makes terrible decisions when publishing games. Anyway, I've linked the article below so if you want to read the whole thing yourself and/or have sneak peak at some of the new plant types and garden arenas, then scroll down for the PDF. For those that just want a quick summary, I'll highlight what I believe to be the important points.

Plants vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time! Reveal Trailer Released [Video and Analysis Inside]

It's been a long four years since the first Plants vs. Zombies game hit shelves but finally the sequel is nearing launch, PopCap have stated a July (2013) release but a solid date has yet to be announced. With a title that is seemingly mocking itself for the ludicrous production time, the game appears to be centred around the aspect of time travelling. You can check out the reveal trailer for yourself below and then if you're interested, I do a personal in depth analysis of the footage, which you can read further down, enjoy.

Call of Duty: Ghosts Reveal Trailer Released [Video and Trailer Analysis Inside]

Today at the Microsoft reveal event of the new Xbox console (the 'Xbox One' - summary article coming soon), we were shown the reveal trailer to Call of Duty: Ghosts. During the conference we were also told a few things about the new game, the most noteworthy (though not entirely surprising) points were that it will be running on a new next-gen engine and it is definitely a completely new storyline with fresh characters, one of which is a dog. I'll discuss more about the trailer in my analysis below but something that isn't clearly mentioned/shown in trailer is that the game takes place 10 years after America has been devastated by (an as yet unknown) event. Anyway, I've linked the video below and done a Trailer Analysis afterwards, enjoy.
