PlayStation Online

UPDATE: Expectation is a strange thing. Seeing many YouTube videos of VR games is not a great idea. Vr in reality is totally different to what you see on the TV. On paper an OLED 1080p screen sounds all nice and crisp but when in front of your eyes and massive you can understand why some people, like me, can be taken back with what they see. Once I got used to it though and a week or so later I'm now blown away. Once I'd got used to the image I was hooked by what I was doing in this new games space. I've had two headsets and they are identical. I've also tried the HTC Vive now, imo the PSVR is overall much better. Origonal Story: Many Playstation VR users are reporting very blurred images with the new VR headset..........including me. I was very excited to try VR for the first time only to be very disappointed by what I was seeing. (tried phone VR in the past) I tried the Shark game in the VR Worlds game only to be greeted by a very blurred shark cage and what lo...

Playstation VR is here. Over the next few days we'll be road testing the new kit to give you the pros and cons of Sony's new tech.

If this doesn't sell Star Wars fans the idea of VR......Nothing will. X-Wing will be a download for all those lucky Battlefront owners that take the plunge with PSVR this Friday. It's not clear if this will be out Friday or when the new movie comes out.

.......and Mods. Did you really think Sony would let Microsoft get one over on them? For me it's the PS Pro support that gets the thumbs up over mods. I was excited to see Elder Scrolls Online getting the 4K treatment, but Skyrim and Fallout, yes please. Skyrim will have mods from day one (28th October UK) and Pro Support where as Fallout will follow with an update. Hats off to Bethesda.

After a long break from the website I'm pleased to say that I'm back. VR is going to shake up games and who knows, change the way we play and think about games.  VR is nothing new but is has had a very slow start on PC. But this is PlayStation. Over 40 million gamers are able to jump right in just needing the PS camera and VR headset to get started. Are you ready? We can't wait. Reviews to follow.

This is the Playstation 4K. Looks very Playstation 2 inspired. More news on the 7th September.

Microsoft have been willy waving regarding sales of the exclusive title Quantum Break but sales data doesn't seam to add up. Vgc sales data shows a very poor first weeks global sales figure of just 267,147 with the US accounting for 146,403 with the rest of the world taking the rest. X one sales didn't jump at all with just 93,109 worldwide, Playstation 4 dominated with 310,417 in the same time period. This was the big hitter of exclusives but sales just don't stack up. Ratchet and Clack has sold over 190,000 in the US in its first week while just 43,000 QB were sold.

D-Day is now confirmed. World War 2 shooter Battalion 1944 has reached its goal in less than 3 days and now sits at over £140,000 . The passion for WW2 games is still alive and kicking it would seem. I'm sick of re-hashed shooters that are like painting by numbers. I can't wait for this game. May 2017 is a long way off mind. Full Story .

At last! I personally have wanted a World War 2 shooter for a long time now, so much that for the first time I've put cash down on a Kickstarter project. The game is multiplayer only at the moment but hopefully we'll see a single player game. I remember the day when I'd jump on Call of Duty, the good games, and skill meant everything, not how many perks you'd unlocked. Players would drop to prone to make themselves a smaller target and take you out. Battalion 1944 developers seem to realise that joy of what made a great shooter. Being an older gamer and having done the tour of Normandy and visited some of the maps that will feature in the game has left me very excited. One of the best maps in COD was Carantan, oh yes, it's in the game. I can't wait for a full list but Omaha, Pointe Du Hoc, Utah, Pegasus Bridge (hope your reading developers) and many of the little villages have to be in the game as does Dead Man's Corner. Having been to thes...

In the week leading up to Christmas and Boxing day the Playstation 4 sold a massive 1,143,573 MILLION consoles with the nearest rival shifting just 572,378, the Xbox One. Wii U managed 380,548 units while Vita sold 196,172. The 3Ds nearly beat out Xone with 520,163. Consoles are dead eh?
