Just See How Pretty The Division Can Truly Be
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 29th of February 2016 - 10:00 PM ]
The Division Two new videos for The Division have been released to show just how the PC version of The Division will blow minds and eyes away By now you have hopefully had a chance to give The Division a quick little run around via the most recent beta. Or at least by now you should know that the game is going to be really pretty on all the platforms it is hitting on March 8th. Yes, Ubisoft went out of the way to make The Division look good on the PS4 and Xbox One and not just leave it to the PC gamers out there to have the best experience possible. At least best in terms of visuals and how one can be transported into New York City after the fall of society. Read More...

It Is Time To Enter The Division's Open Beta
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 17th of February 2016 - 10:00 PM ]
The Division The open beta for The Division starts up this weekend and we have a few new looks at The Division as well as what to expect with the updates and additions to the game If you forgot in the mix of all of the other betas, closed accesses, and all that jazz here recently then let us remind you that the open beta for The Division is going to be up and running here in a few days. Of course that all depends on which platform you choose to experience it on as Ubisoft is giving the Xbox One users a full 24 hours extra to play and experience The Division before the PS4 and PC gamers out there. Officially it all goes down on the 19th to the 21st or 18th to the 21st depending. Read More...

Meet The Division's Enemies As Well As Your Own To Survive
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 9th of February 2016 - 08:00 PM ]
The Division A new look at the enemy factions of The Division has been released as well as details on an open beta for The Division coming in about a week's time If you had the joy of playing in The Division's closed beta recently then you most likely got a good look at some of the other factions trying to control the innocent people of New York in the game. I am still not sure how so many innocent people still survive in the world here as all of the factions look to be just as brutal as the next but The Division had to give us something to fight for right? Ubisoft wouldn't have a great game here if they didn't. Read More...

PlayStation Is Giving PS4 Owners The Chance To Beta Firmware
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 19th of August 2015 - 09:00 PM ]
Looks like the rumors from March are now true as PlayStation is allowing members to sign up to beta test new firmware for the PS4 Way back in March of this year rumors started springing up that PlayStation users would be getting a firmware beta program for the PS4. Nothing was concrete and set in stone back then as this was all based on a few emails and screen shots that could have been faked. Well it turns out they were not faked as right now PS4 owners who want to give new firmware a try can sign up to beta test on their systems. Because this is apparently a thing that PS4 owners have wanted so their Xbox One buddies would stop having something to gloat about. Read More...

The Call Of Duty: Black Ops 3 Multiplayer 'Beta' Goes Live Next Week
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 12th of August 2015 - 09:00 PM ]
If you've pre-ordered Call Of Duty: Black Ops 3 then you'll be glad to see that the multiplayer beta goes live next week for those PS4 owners If you've pre-order Call Of Duty: Black Ops 3 already then you most likely know that the multiplayer "beta" is about to go live soon. At least it will be going live soon for the PS4 version of the game as that kicks off on August 19th as Sony obviously paid more to Activision this year to get Call Of Duty: Black Ops 3 all the early stuff instead. All of the Xbox One players and PC players who pre-ordered Call Of Duty: Black Ops 3 will still be helping stress test Treyarch's servers on August 26th so don't think that they are getting left out in the dark here. Everyone needs to get in on this to make sure the Black Ops 3 multiplayer runs smoothly for everyone; including the non-pre-order gamers out there. Read More...

Is PlayStation Starting A Firmware Beta Program On The PS4?
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 6th of March 2015 - 10:01 PM ]
New leaked screenshots and emails claim that PlayStation may be starting up a firmware beta program for the PS4 on the 2.50 update It looks like, if rumors are true, that MVP PlayStation 4 owners may be getting a firmware beta testing program. I state rumors as this information is all based on a few emails and screenshots that have been spread online showing off that this is fact and a few things that may be included in the next PS4 firmware release. This would be the 2.50 version and not some small "stability" update as these images and everything detail a few new features we may be getting on the PS4 in the near future. Read More...

This Is What The Halo 5: Guardians Multiplayer Beta Looks Like
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 31st of December 2014 - 10:00 PM ]
New screenshots for the Halo 5: Guardians multiplayer beta on the Xbox One have been placed online for those who are not in the beta yet If you are part of the Halo 5: Guardians multiplayer beta then none of what you are about to see is going to be all that exciting. In fact you may want to move on as you have seen all of the footage live and in play already; hopefully. For everyone else then we have a bunch of new screenshots from 343 Industries to show everyone who has yet to pre-order Halo 5: Guardians or turned on the beta what they may be missing out on. Although it seems odd to think that anyone who would have access to the Halo 5: Guardians would not have been balls deep in it just yet… To be honest it looks just as we all would have thought Halo 5: Guardians to have looked.

Tribes: Ascend Closed Beta Is Just Around The Corner *UPDATE*
by Corey Dockendorf [ Monday, 10th of October 2011 - 10:02 PM ]
According to an interview with Todd Harris the COO of Hi-Rez Studios has announced a closed beta for Tribes: Ascend will begin November 4th! The confirmation came during an interview with Cyberlink. I got my hands-on with Tribes: Ascend at this year's Quakecon: 2011 and it is as close to the original that any game could get. Large 16 multiplayer maps, armor and weapon load outs and a disc-launcher that would make any FPS proud. The biggest hook is that this is team based combat and it really shows on these large maps.
