Next Uncharted Info
Thanks to the Australian Classification Board, we may have a bit of insight into what the next Uncharted game will be.
The new game is titled Uncharted: Fight for Fortune and according to the leaked information it will be a multi-platform game, although this most likely means a cross PS3 and PS Vita release, and seeing the Uncharted franchise's loyalty to Sony over the years, it would make little sense to take away the games exclusivity to Sony consoles.
What's also new is that the game may not actually be released by Naughty Dog at all, and like Golden Abyss for the PS Vita, the game may be developed under Sony Bend. If this were to be

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

GOING GREEN WITH EVIL CONTROLLERS
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:

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

When The Last Guardian was first revealed it looked as if it was going to be one of those masterpieces that you would buy a console just to play. As you can see from the following trailers it seemed epic, grand, mystifying and above all incredibly intriguing. Before even seeing anything about the game we all expected it to be along the lines of the PS2 masterpieces, Shadow of the Colossus and ICO. Check out the trailers:E3 2010: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHzHoMT5eRg
TGS 2010: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Vi3srAvl1w&feature=relmfu
Yep, you read it right, it was announced in 2010. Has it been launched yet? Far from it. Just like any of those games that gamers are dying to play, The Last Guardian's launch date kept on postponing till the point that it was believed it had been cancelled altogether.
The rumor about the cancellation

Since the moment I saw the first trailer for Dishonored I have been going on and on about how good it looks and how much I am anticipating it. But being a PS3 owner, I am sort of dreading how it will play on the PS3 as well.
It is a well-known fact that Bethesda has been horrible to PS3 owners. Why do I say so? Well let's just take Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim into consideration. On PC and Xbox 360 it is perfect. On the PS3 there is a massive glitch that you only get to find out after playing the game for a while.
On top of that, DLCs always take forever to get to the PS3 and even when they are released, it is full of bugs! You all know that the latest DLC for Skyrim, Dawnguard, took forever to release. What many don't know is that Bethesda had to work real close with Sony in order to get Dawnguard to even work properly on the PS3!
The only ray of hope I see here is that Arkane Studios is mainly responsible for development. I hope they prioritized both consoles when developing

Hey there guys! Recently I showed you guys a new trailer out for Dishonored, promptly named "Creative Kills", that showed off the creative ways with which players can go about their assassinations. Today I bring to you a "new new" trailer that shows all the aspects that one must consider when sneaking about in the game.As Arkane Studios mentioned before, they have developed the game such that players have complete freedom in choosing a playing style; they can choose to be aggressive or sneaky. However, the whole game is primarily meant to be played in stealth mode and if I am not wrong, most of you will agree with me in the fact that it is much more fun playing stealthy anyways!
As the main character Corvo, we will have at our disposal a wealth of gadgets and weapons to help us in our missions. The powers range from short range teleportation or "Blink" to "Possess" which lets you control ALL non-player characters in the game. You can even possess rats and fish!

As we have said before, Dishonored is shaping up to be a great game. If you guys don't know, Dishonored follows the story of Corvo (an assassin with super natural powers) as he sets to get revenge on all who wronged him and finally set things right. The entire game is about revenge as evidenced by the game's tag line "Revenge solves everything".
The game to me feels like a mash up of Assassin's Creed and Bioshock, which is why I am so psyched for it! Players will have at their disposal a wealth of gadgets, weapons and powers with which to slay their enemies. A recent gameplay trailer not only shows a few of the cool powers and weapons players will get but, also how to combine the powers to kill the enemies in creative and fun ways!
My favorite is the "Friendly Fire" where you first get an enemy to shoot at you and then "Bend Time" to stop the bullet in mid air, and then "Possess" the other individual to place him in the path of fire; end result is that he shoots himself!
