Free to Play

A new expansion is coming to Neverwinter later this year, but before that the game will be coming to the PlayStation 4 for the first time. The PS4 version will also include all of the nine previously released expansions that have made their way to PC and the Xbox One.

On the PS4 listing, Neverwinter has been described as a game 'Set along the Sword Coast, Neverwinter is a free-to-play game with eight playable classes and the controls have been reconfigured to make use of the DualShock 4's touchpad and Party Chat integration.'

Whilst Neverwinter requires an Xbox Live Gold membership to be playable on the Xbox One, the Neverwinter release for PlayStation 4 will not require a PS Plus membership. This means that all PS4 owners will be able to play Neverwinter for free, so long as they are able to download the game to their hard drive.

It's been a common trend to see free to play games make their way to consoles and Neverwinter isn't the first. However, Neverwinter is definitely

I have started to quietly anticipate the release of the Xbox Live Games with Gold and PlayStation Plus free games each month, and like clockwork, each month new games are announced, and thousands of players bag a bunch of titles for free.

This month, Microsoft has announced a few new games for the Games with Gold promotion, some of which players may enjoy.

The first title released as part of the October Xbox Live Games with Gold promotion is Battlefield: Bad Company 2, and whilst this game is now incredibly old, when compared to the lifespan of the Xbox 360, it is still a great title, and if you haven't played it, I'd definitely suggest giving it a try. Many old school Battlefield fans have named Bad Company 2 the last "good" Battlefield game, but you'll have to make your own mind up about that one.

Bad Company 2 will be available to download for free till October 15th, and a day later, Darksiders 2 will be put up for free. Darksiders 2 is another old title, but it's

Deep Down is a title that could possibly be a complete success for Capcom, or an absolute failure, but at this point in time, details on the actual game are on the low. So far, we're all waiting to be able to get our hands on the new PS4 exclusive title by Capcom, but we've still got quite a lot of waiting to do before Deep Down is finally released.

Capcom have been pretty quiet recently, but this week two new screenshots of Deep Down were shared on Twitter, marking the first time any new content for the game has been shared for a few months. Both of the new screenshots show off gorgeous 1080P graphics from the game, although nothing can be seen in the images besides from the background environment and a player in knight's armor.

Along with the screenshots, Kazunori Sugiura, Capcom's producer, revealed a bit of information about the release scheduled for Deep Down. Despite not giving any firm dates, he did confirm that the public beta test for Deep Down should be available

One of the most frustrating things I've come across in matchmaking for beat'em ups is the terrible behavior some players use when trying to avoid ruining their perfect win/loss ratio. One of these tactics involves turning the console off at the socket when they smell the scent of defeat, and another one simply involves quitting to the dashboard or home screen.

When you're an innocent player trying to slowly make his way up the ranks, this can be an incredibly common and frustrating sight. Luckily though, Killer Instinct developers will be putting a system into their free to play Xbox One game to stop quitters and allow fairer gameplay.

The new jail system will automatically but players who have quit percentages higher than 15% into the "jail pool." That allows the player to get the occasional power cut or other problem go by unharmed, but will punish those who repeatedly abuse the game by quitting when near defeat.

A new monthly subscription pass will be put into effect by Sony Online Entertainment this year to allow players to get the most out of all SoE titles whilst cutting down on costs spent within each game.

The "All Access" subscription will be available for purchase starting this April, and it will cost $14.99 per month. This new all access SoE subscription will replace the previous SoE pass that currently costs $19.99.

The $14.99 per month subscription will give players the option to opt-in to special offers and loyalty rewards, and will also offer monthly rewards every month a player logs in. This will include 500 station cash per month, as well as a 10% discount on all marketplaces within SoE online games.

F2P players will not be affected in anyway, and this simply opens up options for those who already spend a fair amount of money on SoE titles each month.

So far, there has been no details on whether such a subscription will come to consoles, but with the recent

PlanetSide 2 is an open world futuristic military shooter that banks on player progression over killstreaks and player skill. It’s a pretty fun team-based game that gets three factions constantly fighting over land, and the greatest thing about it is that it's completely free to play.

The game originally launched on PC, but after making deals with Sony, plans were made to release the game onto the PlayStation 4. However, since their official confirmation of the game being made available for the PS4 some time in the future, we haven't really heard much about the game.

Recently though, it has been announced that PlanetSide 2 will be making it's way to PlayStation 4 this year, and it should be playable by the public before the end of the first half of 2014, if not a few months beforehand.

I personally haven't had much time inside the world of PlanetSide 2, but from hearing other's opinions and reviews, it definitely looks like a very interesting game you could bury yourself

If you haven't quite found the perfect character for your preferences in Killer Instinct, you may want to check out the new DLC that will be arriving to the game.

The new DLC includes Spinal, a character that has been around since the origins of Killer Instinct, and, like the rest of the game's current character roster, he has undergone massive changes to his appearance.

It's still easy to tell it's Spinal though, but the graphics upgrade given to him certainly makes him look like a badass. Spinal can be purchased for $5 as a DLC addition. It's unclear at this point whether it will be included in the $40 Ultra Edition that originally came with the first eight characters, accessory packs, costumes and the original Killer Instinct as an arcade game, but it's likely that you will have to throw out another 5 bucks for Spinal.

No details have been given on when the Spinal DLC will be available yet, but it's probably going to reach Xbox

Project Spark is an interesting venture for develop Team Dakota - the idea is that you take your typical open sandbox world even further by opening up new options and opportunities for players to turn their world into a unique playing experience that other players can then get involved with.

Project Spark has been dubbed the video game that lets you make video games - whether or not it’s actually officially considered a game or just a software studio is unclear, but the compelling nature of the games shown within the creator have certainly turned a few eyes.

To make sure everything is running as smoothly as possible Team Dakota has confirmed that they will be running a beta to test drive everything before full release. The beta has now been announced on their Facebook page to be planned for next month.

On top of the announcement, Team Dakota’s Facebook page has information on how players can access a beta key, and how they can redeem it.

For those playing on

A new prologue trailer has been released for Capcom's upcoming next gen free to play title, Deep Down. The trailer depicts what looks to be two players fighting monsters within a dungeon, however no actual gameplay footage is shown, and instead we're greeted with a bunch of cinematics again.

 The trailer does, however, show that Capcom's Japanese roots are still intact, with a keyboard melody playing in the background akin to the old turn based Japanese RPGs, it's clear who's Capcom's target demographic is here.

However, with it being free-to-play, Capcom haven't left out the rest of the world either, and we'll be able to get our hands on the game as soon as the Japanese can.

The problem is,
