Battlefield 4 is “Next Gen”, and it Ain’t About Graphics, it’s about the Accoutrements

Xbox One: All About the Games (As Long As They’re Not Used)
Seems like it is All About the Games with little to nothing about the Xbox One.
I’ve been looking forward to this conference in the hopes that MS would shed more light on the many unanswered questions about their next gen. console. Which could be a major mistake, with very little exception, is that these games don’t look any better than the 360 or PS3 from a pure graphics standpoint. After experiencing the graphics of these XBONE games, the probability of the next generation of games being more about AI, environmental destructibility and large, Open Worlds seems more likely than ever.
EA and Digital Rights Managment
Could EA be behind the Xbox One and PS4 Used Game DRM fiasco?
Soon after the May 21st unveil of Microsoft’s new Xbox One console, rumors began to circulated the internet about The Xbox One. Apparently the Xbox One will have DRM (Digital Rights Management) which could inhibit or prohibit the ability to play used games. There currently is a type of DRM used with PS3 and Xbox 360 that links the game to the DVD or Blue-ray disk the game is published on. This means your console requires the disk to be in the optical drive for the game to be played, even if the game is installed on the console’s hard drive. This form of DRM allows your purchased disk to be freely traded, sold or lent to other gamers while protecting the game from being outright copied.
The new DRM method rumored for the Xbox One requires automatic installation of the game to the console’s HDD and a key-code to activate and play the game. Once the key has been used, it may not be used on another console or account unless that account pays a fee (full price) for the game. This in effect will very likely prohibit the trading, selling or lending of your game to other gamers. A torrent of outrage over the Microsoft and Sony plan is all the buzz on the internet right now. Many gamers have publicly refused to purchase either console if the rumors are true.

FUSE – Fable’s Vision Trailer Looks Like Gears of War Lite
Check out the trailer from Insomniac Games for FUSE – Fable’s Vision:
Ever wonder what Gears of War would be if it were on diet, doing cardio and an actual colour palette?
Yes? Good, because Insomniac has released the trailer for Fuse: Fable’s Vision. No longer are they clinging to Sony’s hand, but onto EA’s. But at least it’s on the Xbox 360, as well as the PS3. Fuse: Fable’s Vision will be out this May 28th.

Mass Effect 3 Ending: Gamers Demanding Change
There is an uproar in the gaming community over the ending (s) of Mass Effect 3. While not wanting to give anything away for those who have not yet completed the campaign, I will say that the way the trilogy concludes seems to have a large portion of the gaming community up in arms and making demands for Bioware to change the games conclusion.
For a game full of choice, there seems to be a consensus among the gaming community that the choices made throughout the game seem to have little impact on the concluding events of the series. The outcome of the first two varied depending on the choices made by players throughout the game. This was a huge draw for gamers everywhere. A game that could be played through several times with different outcomes. The ability to choose dialogue, sacrifice or save squad members, and the choice to respond virtuously or in a nefarious manner to become either a paragon or renegade gave Mass Effect fans countless hours of gaming. And then, they pissed the gamers off.
DRAGON AGE – ORIGINS
Origins E3
By Peter Blank
Dragon Age: Origins was introduced at the 2009 E3 by Lead Designer Mike Laidlaw. This 1 player D&D style game, is built on Bioware’s Eclipse game engine, and from what was shown at the E3 has an awesome story line and promises to be one of the best RPG’s ever released. The game play, storyline, and NPC interaction kicks ass, all decisions made, effect how the story goes and how the NPC characters interact with you as a player.
Dragon Age: Origins is a dark heroic fantasy set in a unique world. As the spiritual successor of BioWare’s popular Baldur’s Gate series of games, it uses a pause-and-play tactical combat system.
