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

Halo 4 will be released this year on November 6th and the developers expect that the launch of the new Halo trilogy to be ground breaking.

343 Studios showcased the new Halo at E3 2012 and visually the game is said to outshine it's predecessors. However, are gamers ready for more Halo or have the moved on?

One of the newest modes available for online matches is the mode: Infinity Slayer and is said to combine the points-based combat seen in PC shooters and Call of Duty titles while maintaining the flow and essence that Halo fans are already used to in a Halo multiplayer experience.

In addition 343 studios is promising gamers weekly releases of episodic content. These episodes will have high production values to maintain the quality that is throughout the rest of the Halo 4 experience. This episodic content is called Spartan Ops and is playable with up to 4 players.

If you weren't at E3 2012 this year then you probably missed the 140 foot wide trailer, but don't worry we got you covered:

The resolution on this trailer was 6336x720. Pretty intense and definitely had people stopping in their tracks to check it out.

The trailer was mostly a collection of footage many people had already seen, but shows you the length in which publishers go to grab your attention over their competition.

Think the trailer is widescreen enough?

This footage was released on June 4th at Microsoft's E3 2012 Press Conference and places emphasis on the varied gameplay that will be available throughout the campaign mode.

With the inclusion of 2 new vehicle weapon systems and an sniper rifle that can shoot enemies through cover there is a lot more to do than simply running down a single path and taking out enemy forces.

Black Ops 2 puts the player in a continuing timeline from Black Ops 1, but also jumps into the future allowing the developers to make interesting gameplay elements with brand new future weapons. It will be interesting to see how those future weapons will play out in competitive setting like classic Free For All over Xbox Live. A weapon that can shoot

Gaming Controllers, Which Console Design is #1?

No doubt over the years we have seen companies like Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo as the frontrunners in gaming, change their controllers or make new ones to help feed this era of technology driven individuals. After stumbling upon an article about which controller is the best, it came down to the Xbox 360 controller and the PS3 controller.

Over many years of trying to remodel their controllers, I do sincerely agree that the Xbox 360 and the PS3 controllers are the best that the market has to offer as of late. Which one is better, is

The live E3 analysis will begin on Monday, June 4 at 11:30 AM (ET)/ 8:30 AM (PT) and will cover the big Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo, EA and Ubisoft press conferences

A Source from Target Shows Black Ops 2's Release Date

With so many leaks about Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, you could swear that its release is no longer a rumor, but rather confirmed news. From leaks from outside sources and teasers from Activision, I think we can all agree, Black Ops 2 is coming.

Recently a source from Target emailed IGN an interesting image. An image of a Target pre-order card confirming both the title and the release date for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2. The release date is confirmed as November 13th of this year. Which is odd since it's about one week after the release of Halo 4.

WB Announces a DLC-Loaded Version of Mortal Kombat

According to QTE Gamers, on March 2nd, Warner Bros. will be releasing a version of Mortal Kombat containing all of its DLC content. The DLC content includes four characters (five for PS3) which include Rain, Skarlet, Kenshi, and Freddy Kruger (with Kratos for PS3 owners).

Speaking of the Evil D-Pad, I particularly feel that the Evil D-Pad would be the best choice for this game. Why? Because of
