Halo 4 Info

One of the biggest problems with the Halo: Reach matchmaking was credit farming, and Bungie took it quite seriously. In Halo 4, 343 have revised the new experience system to make sure no one gets too far ahead, which is reasonable seeing as experience and Spartan ranks will now unlock players new equipment which are beneficial to playing better in the game.

Unlike Halo Reach, Halo 4 has had a pretty sturdy experience restriction straight into the game at launch, and this can limit the amount of experience players can earn a day whilst playing Spartan Ops and War games. Jessica Shea, community manager for Halo 4, wrote a message on Waypoint to explain the system

Halo 4 Sales Records

So by now I expect a lot of you have settled in with the new gameplay within Halo 4, and are slowly rising up the Spartan Ranks. But when I say a lot of you, it may be a lot more than you might think.

343 Industries have set quite a record in games sales according to VGChartz Estimates. VGChartz have given details about Halo 4's day one sales, and the numbers are quite astonishing. Halo 4 has managed to sell 3.1 million copies in total, which is the most any console exclusive has ever sold within day one sales. 60% of those sales, or 1.9 million units were

Borderlands 2 DLC Info

The president for Gearbox Software, Randy Pitchford, has now confirmed that the next Borderlands 2 downloadable content will be available to players by the end of 2012. For those becoming bored of the main game and the 'Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate's Booty' DLC, you won't need to wait much longer for the new content, because it is very probable that we will see it within a month's time, or at least by the end of December.

Evil Controllers Promotes Family Gaming and Energy Conservation with Video Games

Tempe, AZ. (2012) - Next Month Evil Controllers is participating in Game Hour. Game Hour takes place on December 7th and promotes friends and family to play video games together and to conserve energy.

Game Hour is a yearly event in which the world is asked to set aside their individual wants to play a single game together, in a single room, while the electricity is turned off in the rest of the house. Energy saved in this way may appear minute, but if the entire nation participated in Game Hour, the event could save 55,226,417 kWh. Only 34,770,000 kWh are required to power 37,100 homes for an entire month.

New Black Ops 2 Weapon Customization

One of the greatest things about Call of Duty's multiplayer has always been the amount of weapon customization, and with Modern Warfare 2, players could finally start to make their experience unique to their own gameplay style. In Black Ops 2, players will be able to customize weapons with attachments, and add perks to loadouts just like other games, but this time round Treyarch have added a lot of extra bits and pieces of customization that allow players to make themselves stand out.

In Black Ops 2 there will be a huge range of weapon camos, ranging from standard military camo to bright pink cherry blossom skinned weapons. Every weapon in the multiplayer can be skinned with a custom camo, including both secondary and primary weapons.

Here's an image of the camo select screen sent to MP1st by one of their readers:

Halo 4 Info

One of the most frustrating things to happen in matchmaking in previous Halo games is when the rest of your team decides to quit. In a game like big team battle, it may not seem like much of a deal, but after one or two people quit, usually a lot of others will follow, and it makes it boring and extremely difficult to ever stand a chance against the enemy team, especially in smaller games.

343 are hoping to fix this by allowing players to join other games in progress. This will make matchmaking times significantly shorter whilst making sure no one has an unfair advantage against the opposing team.

There have also been a few other changes

New Black Ops 2 Info

So far we've been given quite a fair bit of info on the new Black Ops, but there are still features that have been left in the shadows. However, a few extra details have been unearthed by David Vonderhaar, the game director for Black Ops 2, with the most interesting one giving us an insight into the new games emblem editor.

David has tweeted a snippet of the new emblem editor screen (shown above) and although it doesn't reveal much, along with the previous rumors from Charlie Intel, who were lucky enough to play the game with Treyarch, we can begin to get a pretty clear picture of what the emblem editor will be like.

PS3 System Info

On October 23^rd, PlayStation 3 users were greeted with a new update to their console. If you've turned your PS3 on since that date, you've probably noticed the new (v.4.30) update, and although there’s nothing significantly different, there are a few changes and tweaks that you're likely to spot.

The biggest difference in the new system software is the new changes to how Trophies are displayed on your console. You'll now be able to find your trophies under PlayStation Network on the XMB (Xross Media Bar.) It's a little different to its previous appearance, but hopefully many of you will find the new Trophy display significantly more convenient.

New Borderlands 2 Info

On top of new DLC, a Borderlands developer has answered a few questions on twitter giving fans insight into their current goals on the 2^nd Borderlands title. We have previously heard about new character classes being added with download content packs, but thanks to the power of social media, we now have an even better idea of what's going on in the Gearbox office today.
