Assassins Creed 4 Black Flag has officially been announced as one of the first games to make a debut on the next generation of consoles, with the PlayStation 4 version already confirmed and Ubisoft already confirming that the game will come with additional content, fans of the game were quite anxious to see actual gameplay running on the next generation console. While the next Xbox is set to be revealed this coming May 21st and the PlayStation 4 has put a lot of cards on the table with their February reveal and a whole lot of surprise announcements as of GDC, we have details on the features and other perks of the console but no eyes on the console itself.

The Last of Us comes from the brilliant minds who were behind the Jak and Daxter Trilogy on the PlayStation 2 and more importantly helped introduce the spectacular Uncharted trilogy on the PlayStation 3. The game will be unlike any of their any other games because it will offer a whole other side that was previously alien to anyone who has played a Naughty Dog game, The Last of Us paints us a dark and gritty future where the weak die and the strong survive, no one helps deliver this message better than Ellie, one of the games protagonists.

Metro: Last Light is a successor to a very under appreciated FPS released a few years back, while DLC has caught on as a mainstream trend, Metro: Last Light has just pushed the final straw that broke the camels back. Ranger Mode is a difficulty setting that will truly give players the deepest experience of the horror segments of the game, but to avail it you either have to pre-order the game or buy it post-launch as for $5 which is absolutely absurd.

To say that the Nintendo Wii-U has been taking quite a beating since its release would be a massive understatement, the company has done every possible measure to help boost the sales of the console but all of their attempts ultimately end up in vain. To help add fuel to this inferno, there doesn’t seem to be any optimism from EA regarding their next-gen titles such as Battlefield 4 making its way to the console.

Diablo 3 is a game that could have achieved the greatness of its predecessors but due to many launch day problems and post launch issues the game never really got the acclaim that the fans believed they deserved. The biggest complaint being the always online making the game a challenge to play and of course was also a deal breaker to many gamers but it appears that the latest bug may have spelled imminent doom for the game as a new exploit allowed thousands if not more players to duplicate millions in gold, buy out the auction house and completely crash the in game economy.

Star Wars Battlefront 3 is a modern day tragedy in gaming, a game that has gone through the development inferno has reared its head several times in the past but with the closure of Lucasarts studio by Disney, it is safe to say that the fate of this game has been sealed. Some newer footage has surfaced that shows the game in the Alpha stage of development, the game was going to be leaps and bounds above the previous games in the series but it got axed when it was at a 90% completion.

GTA 5 is without the slightest shadow of a doubt the single most highly anticipated video game this coming year, while GTA 4 had a spectacular reception and was remarked to be a significant step in the series, GTA 5 looks like it is going to be leaps and bounds above any of the other games. For starters the game boasts a better color palette that should definitely help the players eyes relax after the muddy color settings of GTA 4.

The latest batch of Screenshots show us that Franklin, Micheal and Trevor are up to no good as they do a series of hijinks.

Borderlands 2 is a spectacular RPG FPS that truly rocked the gaming world last year, while the game is truly one of those that deserves to be purchased with a Season Pass, with each new DLC bringing in hours of fun and a new character class for the players to play as, The latest DLC has made its way to twitter by accident when one of the writers of the title decided to tweet a picture of himself lying on a Sofa but neglected to see the Tiny Tina promotional stand in the background, while the tweet has since been deleted we are all aware of the vigilant internet users who saved the picture as soon as it was revealed.

Moments after we got the first glimpse at Warner Brothers, upcoming Batman: Arkham Origins, the first screenshots and gameplay details have also been leaked by nintendoeverything.

Batman: Arkham Origins Screenshots and Game Details Uncovered

As we already know, Batman: Arkham Origins is set years before the current two Arkham games so basically these would be the early days of Batman or the Dark Knight’s uprising to what he currently is. The game is being developed by Warner Brothers, Montreal instead of Rocksteady but the core development of the game remains the same with Warner Brothers having full disposal of the custom build Unreal Engine in their hands to give the game the same Arkham atmosphere experienced in the previous two titles.

There are tons of details mentioned by the site, we know that the game would be the first time when Batman would go against some of the most renowned super villains in the franchise’s history. You can note that by the younger Penguin in one of the screenshots. The game takes place on a Christmas Eve when mob boss known as “Black Mask” has put a high price on Batman’s head, cops who want to take on the mob later end up being part of the manhunt himself leaving no choice for batman but to outsmart his foes, find out the reason why Black mask wants him dead and to prove to what good cop he is on the other side.

The May cover for GameInformer magazine has a surprise for everyone and that’s the first look at the upcoming Batman: Arkham Origins title which is scheduled for a 2013 release. Rather than developer of the previous two Arkham games working on the new title, it is Warner Bros. Games Montreal studio who would develop the new Batman: Arkam Origins title.

Batman: Arkham Origins – Dark Knight’s Legend Begins!

Batman: Arkham Origins, as the name suggests is a prequel in the Arkham franchise set in Batman’s early days when he was young with an under-developed skill set compared to what he was in Batman: Arkham City and Asylum. In Batman: Arkham Origins, Batman would encounter many of the super villains for the first time in the premises of Arkham which would be a great new experience for users. Along with this, the assassin Deathstroke would appear for the very first time in a Batman game. So if this is the first time for Batman to encounter his very first super villains, one could imagine the size and scope of the game which would definitely have alot to offer and does sound promising.

Heading up the vision for Arkham Origins is creative director Eric Holmes, known for being the lead designer of open world action hits The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction and Prototype. A self-professed lover of comics, Holmes even wrote the miniseries Transformers: Megatron Originfor IDW. GameInformer
