Hey there guys. I guess you guys already read the previous article about the Halo 4 Limited Edition Console Bundle. Since then it has been pulled down from the Microsoft Store so we haven't been able to get a better look at it. But, today I bring to you the close up image of the new Halo 4 UNSC Controller:

Looks cool right? As you can see, the blue led that is supposed to be integrated instead of the green can be seen from this picture. The d-pad is also supposed to be the twist d-pad. Also notice how the controller is translucent.

Halo 4 Multiplayer News
New information has surfaced surrounding the much anticipated Xbox exclusive, Halo 4. To be more precise, the information is regarding a new requirement that needs to be fulfilled in order to play Halo 4's multiplayer.
It seems that Halo 4's multiplayer requires a total of 8 GB of free space for an install, either in the form of extra space in an Xbox 360 hard drive or an external flash drive. However, Microsoft highly recommends the in-built hard drive over the external as the former is supposed to provide a more "optimal experience". I am guessing the optimal experience means less lag and load times?
This basically means

Info Naughty Dog's New PS3 Game
Naughty Dog revealed a bit more info recently about their new IP, The Last of Us. They mentioned that there would be several ways of going about the game in terms of what you chose to do and when. For example, you can choose to sneak past a group of baddies or eliminate them all while risking your resources.
Naughty Dog also verified that even though players will have such options throughout the game (which will give it a sandboxy feel), the game will not have multiple endings. As such, you can play the game however you like but everyone will get the same ending.
Also, we had all been wondering whether we will get to play co-op

New Xbox 720 Information Leaked
There has been a huge leak, a 56 page document containing info on Microsoft's 5 year plan, regarding the future Xbox 720 from within the walls of Microsoft. Although the information has not been confirmed to be authentic, Microsoft's law firm has demanded that the information be removed from the internet. Even though this cannot be used as justification of the information being real, it sure feels great to believe so.
This is what was mentioned in the leaked document:
-The Xbox 720 is going to come bundled with the Kinect Version 2.0
-It will have a Blu-Ray drive (we are all expecting as much)
-A tablet integration -

Evil Controllers and The AbleGamers Foundation
If you aren't familiar with the AbleGamers foundation, you should be. The AbleGamers foundation strives to bring accessibility to all gamers. This is a goal that Adam Coe, president of Evil Controllers, shares with them. Together with the AbleGamers foundation, Evil Controllers can help make controllers that are more accessible to gamers with limited mobility.
The AbleGamers work hard to increase the accessibility to all games; they reach out to game developers and game insiders to make large industry changes. Oftentimes simple solutions can make a game that would normally be largely inaccessible to a large audience, fully accessible. One of these changes for example is the simple option

Counter Strike: Global Offensive Info
Counter Strike: Global Offensive is not exactly a great leap for the series. It is not meant to be Counter Strike 2 but a revamp of the old game. That being said, we should not sell this game short as any CS veteran would be more than happy with this game. The game will be available for PC, Xbox360, PS3 and PC players.
Valve has actually spent some time and tweaked some of the factors of the game, the most noticeable of which is the new and improved look of the game. The map layouts, loadout interface and the physics of the game have also gone through some changes.
Anyone who has ever played any of the games from the series will instantly recognize

Watch Dogs
In my opinion, Ubisoft won this year's E3. They launched games on every possible platform and all of them looked amazing. They also had a nice little surprise for us at the end of their presentation. Ubisoft Montreal had been working on a new IP for a while which had been kept completely hidden. The game is called Watch Dogs and from the initial gameplay demo I can already tell you that this is going to be a keeper.
The game takes place in the future where everything electronic is run by a Central Operating System termed CTOS. So basically everything (subways, security cameras, traffic lights etc.) is run by the CTOS. Thanks to this, the Private Companies who control the system are nearly untouchable. Information
