Game installs will be a mandatory thing on Xbox One.

No, no, no, not this again. We’re hearing from sources that the Xbox One will require gamers to be installed on the hard drive before playing is allowed. If for some reason you want to take that new game over to a buddy’s house, you would have to pay a fee to MS just to play it. The game will be tied to one Xbox Live account, no mention yet if it can be unlinked for another account.
Yeah I hate installing games to my PS3. I have a puny 80GB hard drive and it fills up quick with all the mandatory installs. Plus who wants to buy a brand new game, rush home and then wait while 5GB of data is  slowly transferred to their deck? Not I that’s for sure. The Xbox One may have a 500GB drive but that sucker will fill up very fast with games, here’s hoping for TB drives.
What this seems like is Microsoft’s use of the Xbox One against the used games market. Sure EA ditches Online Passes but then someone still has to pay to play used. Stay tuned geeks as more info will eventually emerge.

PS4 Details Will Possibly Emerge This Month
Last Updated on Thursday, 4 April 2013 03:58 Written by Laddie13 Thursday, 4 April 2013 05:00
Rumors are abound that Sony is set to reveal more details about the much-anticipated PS4. It was widely believed that they would use E3 to finalize details or at least give us more info but now speculation is that Sony will make an announcement as early as this month. Sony likely wants to keep the hype train rolling in their favor after the not so surprising PS4 announcement this past February.
My own personal opinion is that Sony wants to have all details available and perhaps even start taking pre-orders before Microsoft announces their next console. In January Microsoft posted a countdown to E3 on its blog which most people assumed was to be taken as a countdown to the NextBox. However there’s still a chance Microsoft will also preempt E3 with their own standalone announcement. Both consoles could possibly release by the end of 2013.
Eventually I will own both consoles but my first choice and the console I will pre-order in hopes of getting my hands on at launch will be the PS4. I think a lot of gamers have similarly made up their minds regardless of announcements. So geeks, what’s your thoughts on the impending next console generation? We’d love to hear your thoughts on what will undoubtedly be a competition that in the end can only end in a win for us gamers. Read more: PS4 Details Will Possibly Emerge This Month

The Phantom Pain is indeed Metal Gear Solid V!
Last Updated on Wednesday, 27 March 2013 04:21 Written by LoganDX Wednesday, 27 March 2013 04:21
So here we are, official confirmation that the game previously known as The Phantom Pain is the fifth chapter in the Metal Gear Solid franchise. The initial trailer fooled just about no one, the internet was a blaze with MGS theories mere moments after it was shown at the Spike VGAs. Nice try Kojima!
There’s a new trailer to help fans understand what’s going on but man I gotta say I was more confused after watching it than I was before! The basic premise is that Ground Zeroes and The Phantom Pain are both elements of Metal Gear Solid V and what we see is the aftermath of events that transpired in Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker.
The best news is that those of us not looking forward to scraping up cash to play the game on a new system won’t have to. Metal Gear Solid V is going to release (date TBD) for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360! Hit the break to peep the full press release and hit the MGS site here to watch the 6 minute trailer.

Publishers have been riding the nostalgia train with their last gen remastered collections This geek has repurchased a few handfuls of PlayStation 2 games for his PS3 and is looking for more. The one series I’ve been wanting a collection of for trophy gathering has been Kingdom Hearts. Well at long last Square Enix has heard my pleas and is bringing the beloved franchise to the PS3.
Before we get too excited, it needs said that the collection is a repacking of the first game and one of the in between sequels. Nope, no KH 2 geeks – sad face! What we do get is the previously Japan only Kingdom Hearts Final Mix, a game fans have been clamoring about for years and Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories. Also tucked in the package will be story videos from Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days compiled in HD.
The game has no firm release date nor pricing but fall will be here before I know it. Hit the break and flip through the press release from Square Enix.
