Halo 4 Controller and Console
Last week it was revealed from Microsoft's site that Microsoft will be releasing a Limited Edition Halo 4 Xbox 360 Console Bundle that comes with a Halo 4 controller. Although the pre-order page has been removed, the cat's already out of the bag. Although everyone is expecting that was part of Microsoft's plan.
Either way I guess more people were actually expecting a console bundle. I mean it's HALO, Microsoft HAD to do it. Here is what you get with this bundle
- Standard retail copy of Halo 4
- One-of-a-kind custom skinned -

Gaikai Cloud Service on a Sony Console
Sony has confirmed its plans to acquire the cloud gaming service Gaikai for a lump sum of $380 million. Why you wonder? Andrew House, President of Sony Computer Entertainment, shed a bit more light on the matter.
Mr. House mentioned that Sony is currently aiming to create a new cloud service which will allow users to experience a wide variety of content "instantly" on the go from pretty much any internet connected devices; the content would range from HD movies and videos to hard core 3D games.
There were a lot of rumors going about this deal all the way to E3 this year where sources were claiming that Sony was trying to significantly improve

New PS3 Super Slim Console
It seems that we might be getting another PS3, yes not a PS4 but another model of the current PS3 in the near future. This piece of news was concluded from documents that had been submitted to the Federal Communications Commission by Sony.
The upcoming series has been filed under the tag of CECH-4001x thus making it the 4000 series while the current model is the 3000 series. Although no one has claimed that there is going to be a slimmer model, most of us can already guess that would be the case. Anytime Sony launches another model it basically is just a slimmer version of the original.
It seems these documents contained a series of pictures

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 -

Last week during E3, Microsoft showcased their newest tech to compete with Nintendo's Wii U and Sony's PS3 and PS Vita interconnectivity.
SmartGlass was revealed and is an app for phones and tablet devices that turns them into a secondary screen for your Xbox 360. While game developers may be working on interesting ways to incorporate this new technology it also turns your tablet or phone into an excellent media companion. Microsoft provided an example of how it could be used on non-gaming experiences. The example they used was using Smartglass on your tablet while you enjoy an episode of Game of Thrones. The app could identify which episode you're watching and could sync with your particular position in the show to give you additional information on characters and the physical location the characters are in within the universe.
In addition to being an additional display in our favorite games it can also function as a multiple purpose controller to allow you to use your Xbox

Error 37
For those of you who have waited a decade to play Diablo III, was it as good as you imagined? Well we all may have our own opinions on what we like/dislike about the PC game thus far, but I think we can all agree that connection errors were a problem we all hated.
When it came to launch time many of us had the game downloaded and installed; all we were waiting for was the servers to open up so we could set our eyes upon the Blizzard created madness known as Diablo III. However, once the hour came,

The gaming community will be disappointed to find out that Microsoft has no plan to release a new console anytime soon, according to a statement from Microsoft and this article on Mashable.

New Game Controller Technology Provides Feedback by Stretching The Skin on Your Fingers
While the Kinect has changed the world of gaming by allowing you to game without a controller, one person has decided to taking game controlling to a new level and fulfill the issue that is rarely addressed: a lack of tactile feedback in controllers. Beyond controllers that vibrate, there is really nothing. However, William Provancher, an associate University of Utah professor of mechanical engineering, has a promising idea for the next generation of feedback for controllers.
His team has figured out that, by installing a small, motorized piece on top of a directional stick, they can stretch the skin
