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.

You would have thought that after all the leaked footage and campaign gameplay of Halo 4 there would have been enough reports to fully reveal Halo 4 in its naked form, but somehow it seems that 343 and Microsoft have managed to keep some secrets behind closed doors.

The picture above shows some kind of Promethean weapon or enemy capable of inflicting a considerate amount of damage to the chief and his companions, and it has a shape that we haven't seen in official previews of the game. The new image was revealed by IGN, and has created a ripple of interest throughout different websites and pages on the internet.

343 and Microsoft have released a fair amount of information on the rather complex species and their ranking positions within the main four Promethean groups; the four different Knights, three Crawler variations, and a Watcher species, but all of these are loosely based on a humanoid shape and the concept in the image is some sort of strange orb or space weapon.

Halo 4 Info

After the huge success of Forge World in Halo: Reach, it's only fair that forge fans receive a treatment just as rewarding in Halo 4. A recent video has been released featuring Kynon Pearson, a developer for 343 Industries, and Lori Zawada, a developer for Certain Affinities, discussing the new forge features in Halo 4.

Although neither the forge menus nor any of the main mechanics were showcased in this video, information about new maps were. Three new maps will be included with Halo 4 upon release, which have all been designed with forge in mind.

The first map features jagged high-rising cliffs covered in rich

Black Ops 2 Headsets

If you're a gamer, you will know how important audio quality can be, especially when playing competitive First-person-shooters such as Call of Duty Black Ops, and although there has been many decent gear released over the years, the best quality headsets have quite often come from Turtle Beach.

Turtle Beach has recently announced a new line of Black Ops 2 branded high-end, high quality headsets which will go on sale on October 29^th.

There will be 5 new headsets in the limited edition Black Ops 2 range, all with different price points and quality ranges, starting with the cheapest that's been named the Ear Force earbud, and the most

Mass Effect 3 New Multiplayer DLC Info

New content has been released by Bioware to beef up the current multiplayer offering with their biggest multiplayer DLC yet. The DLC title, which has been named Retaliation, has improved upon many aspects within the current multiplayer experience and added new gameplay elements such as new items, characters and enemies.

The biggest addition is probably the new threat we have not seen in multiplayer yet, and that is the Collector race. New enemies consist of the Collector Praetorian, Scion, Captain and Trooper, alongside the Dragoon and new Geth drones.

As well as the new enemies, we've been given the ability to play

Halo 4 Gameplay Info

Well if you've come this far through the Halo series, you may be in for a surprise: The Halo 4 campaign is not for the weak hearted.

Frank O' Connor, development director of 343 Industries recently sat down at Eurogamer and played through a scene of the new Halo 4 campaign. As he played it was clear this game was going to be hard, and he was only playing it on normal difficulty.

When I played Halo Reach on Legendary for the first time, it hit me how much Bungie had managed to improve the AI of the covenant, and this was one of the main reasons it was such a challenge. In Halo 4, AI has been improved drastically, and you'll be very lucky

Gears of War Judgement Info

If you didn't know already, Gears of War Judgment is Epic Games upcoming title and will be a prequel to the current trilogy, in which the campaign puts you back into the aftermath of Emergence Day in Gears of War 1. You'll follow Kilo Squad, including members Lt. Damon Baird and Private Augustus, as they are accused of treason after a bloody battle against the Locust in Halvo Bay.

The campaign is likely to be equally as stunning as the previous games, but what brings players back again and again is the competitive multiplayer that stands out from other top shooter games.

In Gears of War Judgment, we'll still be able to

Dead Space 3 Info

Recent gameplay footage of Dead Space 3 has been released by Visceral Games, the team behind the Dead Space series, and it's looking to be the most exhilarating gameplay footage yet. The developers have managed to capture amazing scenes within a dark abandoned spaceship, relying on the weak light emitting from Isaac's suit and the inconsistent eerie background noises to create an atmosphere that's bound to get you on the edge of your seat.

The realistic body animations and interactions within the hazardous ship innards make it feel more than a video game, putting you right into an experience equivalent to a bid-budget horror movie. For the
