Sony unveiled its hand in the latest installment of the game console long-term battle with Microsoft with the announcement of the PlayStation 4 will be in European stores on 29th of November.
With more than 1 million pre-orders already marked , Sony has priced its device at 349 pounds in the UK and $ 399 ( 254 ) in the United States, only $ 100 more cheaper than the Xbox One, the new console from Microsoft first in eight years.
" The response we have seen is simply amazing ," said Sony Computer Entertainment CEO Andrew House industry conference Gamescom in Germany.
- The two companies are betting that , nearly two decades after the arrival of the first PlayStation in 1994 , gamers are willing to invest in new consoles and titles on hand in order to play .
- games designed for mobile phones, tablets and laptops are increasingly attracting consumers consoles with titles like Angry Birds, Farmville and Crush candy among the greatest successes of the past year saga. A new console is not a guarantee of success, Nintendo discovered last Christmas . Despite the market itself with the launch of the Wii U a year before the latest offers of its competitors, Nintendo could not capitalize on their advantage. The Wii U is being sold by its predecessor, the Wii.
computer games publisher Electronic Arts predicted a return to the form of disc based games . "In fact, we see growth this year in our plan for the games physical box . The idea that physical media is dead is completely wrong on this point , "said Peter Moore, COO . ![]()

Gamescom 2013: hands-on with the best games
Titanfall Battlefield 4 Skylanders strength rivals exchange and Kinect Sports are some of the games we have in our hands
if Gamescom is over and the gaming industry is still spread throughout the world once more . It was another great event exciting and exhausting , and most participants were able to see only some of the games I wanted. Here is a selection of tracks that have managed to play as well as some hands on the thoughts of some of my colleagues in the press.
course, there were plenty of quirky indie treats hiding around in the dark corners of commercial cinemas , but with three days to see everything and a lot of new flavor exec talks new generation do, most of us had to go to mainstream fare. Anyway, this is something that I played and I found it interesting - not always for the right reasons . Everything else was probably at the end of the tail of a public exhibition of three hours or lurking without notice in a location away from major publishers . Again, go to this show illumination dominates ...
Battlefield 4 (EA, PC , PS3, PS4 , Xbox 360, Xbox One)
I was not convinced at first. When the show loaded and I got my first glimpse of the map of Paracel Storm ( which runs on a small island in the disputed Paracel archipelago ) , visual representations of the landscape seemed clouded and rudimentary . The main elements of decoration is a series of bunkers and burned military buildings , and we spawn in the middle of palm trees and clumps of grass scattered itself favors, there are a lot of work to do in these textures. However, when the mode of domination really started, it condensed and very claustrophobic assumes Conquest (which was first seen in BF3 Close Quarters add-on ) was exciting and challenging .
There are three objectives to capture and keep on hand , and the little card is good cooperative game a must . The new Dual Shock pad superb takes some time getting used to , triggers , small curves and very sensitive analog sticks that require a measured approach . But once I legging through the trenches and blast walls , the sun shines through the building , and my assault rifle when he was supposed to, I had to familiarize EA DICE charm.
'm eager to try one of the locations of 64 major players , and the discovery of some of the spectacular natural events. There are , for example, the Paracel map where an abandoned ship is large near the coast and released its anchor , allowing it to float failed , bringing a tidal wave with it. But so far , in visual terms , it does not look like a next-generation console game in 1080 despite the p frame rate of 60 . If anyone can turn graphically is EA DICE .
Team (Ubisoft , PS4 , Xbox One)
Ubisoftmarket income race open world unfolds through a smaller version of the United States and works effectively as a MMORPG - but with luxury cars. Players go online , effective teams ( guilds ) and then go shopping missions and raids together, the level of their vehicle as they would with an RPG character . The challenges can be collected on the fly and the success of the feed into your XP system, which of course can be used to upgrade your car , which has 19 items to customize including gears, suspension and tires. Players can build a garage, but developers want you stick to a specific model , stay with him throughout the game - as you would an RPG character
All this sounds like an interesting step in the experiments run in open world , we've all seen , and an online map showing the location and activities of all your friends , social elements are art too. Just one problem now: manipulation. Undoubtedly, the vehicle load output can be changed on the fly to the asphalt , dirt , etc., but my brief practice , the cars feel heavy and numb. Reflections workshop based Newcastle participated in the development process , but its great fun to drive motor devil - may-care is clearly not power the game. Instead , the goal seems to be realistic Forza- esque - and perhaps the 2010 Camaro What disobedient behaves like a bull in a mud bath. But this is not Forza , is a romp based on a stylized band U.S. , and should be a lot of emotions.
NBA 2k14( 2K Games , PC , PS3, PS4 , Xbox 360, Xbox One)
know very little about the series of basketball highly respected 2K , but I'm glad I took the time to see the last episode, which introduces a new mechanical control votes " Stick PRO . " Now dribbling and shooting function are all in the right analog stick , allowing a series of subtle contextual movements , seamless . difficult at first, and you should know that only needs a touch dribble while shots are supported thrust direction, but experimentation led some impressive shots defense agreement . diagram is nice, allowing you to intercept the Gaza Strip and in a range of positions , and there is a new function that will call Smart play the game when it comes to position your player PD - ... great for newbies like me look so beautiful with 3,000 new animations and models charming scene Oh, and LeBron James took all the music, apparently
RivalsKinect Sports (Microsoft, Xbox One)
Calling the device's camera re-engineering Microsoft is still hotly debated , but Rare has produced a showcase worthy of their best detection capabilities. Apparently enjoys 10 times the fidelity of motion of its predecessors , the game features six sports, including old favorites football, tennis and bowling , plus newcomers , including race day and climbing. But first, the camera scans your body and face to produce a 3D model of each player - when I did , he picked up the fact that I was wearing glasses and a growth of stubble , despite my avatar given muscle screen disturbing similarity Danny Wallace.
- also had a look at climbing, which is to hand over the key points of a rock wall well detailed progress grip. The best thing is that you can play against another competitor , then up below and grabbing his legs to pull down . I asked if he could pull his shorts down, but the employee Rare not hear the question or refused to believe that a Guardian journalist had done. Anyway, I do not know.
- It was really promising things , however, and there are some good social systems , including the ability to compete with AI representations of your online friends - as Drivatar Forza system. I was not a fan of Kinect Sports, but I can see it working well with my kids - especially since the camera now allows us to approach the screen. With the original Kinect, everything had to be standing in the door of my office to play. Not ideal. Skylanders
turns out that this latest toy / Activision game Cross could not have come at a better time . The increasing complexity of new data , you can throw in half and changed to open more than 250 new combinations of skills, is an important distinction between this series and Disney Infinity . While it has the world famous brands and fashion pretty Toy Box , Skylanders has a wonderful action RPG system depth with tough enemies , the system decent progress and much booty . My friend and playmate writer Matthew Reynolds of Digital Spy , said the army exchange feels like a mini Diablo , and this is an accurate assessment.
Anyway , I played a card covered with snow in the PS4 in some grotesque images were taken impressive clarity of the stage. Among the new characters I liked the swap Rattleshake Force , a cowboy who shoots snake snakes out of his six guns - they can damage enemies or capture and retrieve items , adding a kind of quack Shot mechanic. Then there BoomJet , which can be the enemies of his jet engine and call an air strike . My favorite , however, is the grid literally drilla a gorilla in a jackhammer you can use the machines to plant bombs munitions and guns. Better yet, you can call the monkeys messengers that carry several small goals - useful for battles There is also a new range of the speed zone " bonus areas , which allow characters to bring across a range of areas of super fast slalom collecting coins . Yes, it is once again the bonus stage of Sonic. There are also more advanced methods for high-level players and a new range of enemies for the player to experiment with different combinations of exchange. Some players are never going to get on board with any action figure Crossover Concept , and that's fine . However, the exchange of work seems to be a substantial package for fans of the series, and since it is compatible with all the major figures of a very good starting point for curious beginners. I saw my children play the Giants a little bit, but it seems that the point where you can take control away from them.
