Titanfall Limited Edition Xbox One Wireless Controller

On January 15, 2014 By RicoIn Games, Tech, Xbox OneLeave a comment

One of the best things about big game releases is the great Limited Edition gear that comes along with them. The Xbox One “Titanfall” Limited Edition Wireless Controller is the perfect way to mark the debut of “Titanfall” on the Xbox One. “In a collaborative effort with the Xbox design team and the Respawn art department, our goal was to create a controller that feels as if it is a piece of military spec hardware transported from the universe of Titanfall and into players hands,” stated Joel Emslie, Lead Artist at Respawn Entertainment. Designed by Respawn Entertainment, the sleek controller was inspired by the C-101 carbine, used by the elite IMC Titan pilots of the Frontier. Crafted in striking detail for maximum authenticity in color and graphics, it looks and feels like an artifact from the world of “Titanfall” and is a must-have for every “Titanfall” fan.

The Xbox One “Titanfall” Limited Edition Wireless Controller will be available worldwide in time for the launch of “Titanfall” on March 11, 2014 in North America and beginning March 13, 2014 in Europe.

Available now to pre-order on the Microsoft Store click here to learn more.

Helix Starts Going Viral Tonight

On January 10, 2014 By AnjelIn Entertainment, News, TV, VideosLeave a comment

From the man that brought us the fantastic Battlestar Galactica, Ron Moore returns tonight with his new show, Helix, which starts tonight at 10pm on Syfy in the USA, and on Showcase here in Canada.

They are being tight lipped as far as plot goes, but what we know so far is that the show is about a team of CDC scientists that gets called in to an Arctic research laboratory in order to investigate a possible disease outbreak.

Staring, Billy Campbell, Jordan Hayes, Neil Napier, Hiroyuki Sanada, Kyra Zagorsky, and Mark Ghanimé, this show has already been captivating audiences with some very enigmatic trailers, like the one below.

I know I will be tuning in tonight to get a feel for this very promising looking show. It has been a long time since we have had a good TV series in the same vein as the X-Files, so I am pretty excited.

Helix Season 1 starts airing tonight at 10pm on Syfy Network, and on Showcase in Canada.

Razer Announces Project Christine Concept, Looks To Make The PC Modular

On January 8, 2014 By AnjelIn Games, Games, News, Online, PC, Tech, VideosLeave a comment

Have you ever wished that you could just go to the store and buy a new CPU, RAM, or GPU and then just go home and plug it in like a USB or something and not have to worry about opening up your PC, and getting all down and dirty inside it? Or maybe wish you could just do that and not have to call that techie friend to come help you put it all together? Well Razer has thought these same things, and has come up with this very interesting modular design concept.

The Idea here is that you buy the “spine” and then you buy the components you want to add to your PC; such as CPU, RAM, GPU, and hard drives as modules. Then you take these modules home, plug them into the “Spine” and voilà you just built your PC. Later on when you realize that maybe you want some more RAM or a better GPU (or maybe a Second one), you go to the store, purchase the GPU module you want, take it home and plug it in, simple as that.

Each module is sealed and completely self contained and features noise canceling, as well as active liquid cooling. They claim that by using this design it will be safe to overclock and not void any warranties.

The thought here, is that by buying into the “spine” you can simply upgrade your system as needed, very easily, so easily in fact, anyone can do it by just plugging in a new module of their choosing. Thus negating the need to replace entire systems and not having to have to get down into the nitty gritty of the system, which for some people also means that they can do it themselves instead of calling that friend to come do it for them.

For now, Razer’s Project Christine is a concept, but if Razer has shown us anything these last few years, it is that when they see an idea take off, they can make it happen.

I think this is a very interesting idea and assuming the cost isn’t insane, I think this is a great idea, especially for friends/family that would love to game on a PC but are to concerned about upgrading and tinkering. For them this would be a great solution to that problem, as when they are no longer able to play new games, they can go in and swap whatever components they need to in order to be current again. I will definitely be keeping an eye on this concept in the future, and here is hoping we see them actually make it happen.

Alien: Isolation Officially Announced, Looking To Head Back To The Survival Horror Roots

On January 7, 2014 By AnjelIn Game Videos, Games, Games, News, Online, PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Network, Videos, Xbox 360, Xbox OneLeave a comment

So it is no secret that the last Alien game, Aliens: Colonial Marines was not very good, but it appears that Sega wants to try again. This time they have decided to go in a different direction, and they are hoping to scare the pants off you in this upcoming survival horror game.

According to the press release, Alien: Isolation is set 15 years after the events of Alien and you play as Ripley’s daughter, Amanda, as she searches for the truth behind her mother’s disappearance. Going to a survival horror game should bring back more of the feeling from the movie, and I am hoping that it will make for a much better game then the last one.

You can check out the release trailer for Alien: Isolation below.

Alien: Isolation is slated to be released sometime in Fall 2014 for the PC, Xbox One, PS4, Xbox 360 and PS3. You can find out more from their Website.

Finally Someone Made A Good Tomb Raider Film!

On January 7, 2014January 8, 2014 By AnjelIn Entertainment, Game Videos, Games, Games, Movies, News, VideosLeave a comment

So over the Christmas holiday’s this phenomenal fan film, Croft, was released. Created by Director Trevor Addie and Producer Irma Evangelista as a more gritty, hard hitting version of Lara Croft that falls much more in line with the newest game that was released last year. This is a fan film done right! Not to mention I can’t believe these guys did this film on virtually no budget, I would LOVE to see what they could do with some actual money behind them….. Here is hoping the studio is listening, let these guys do a real film!

Also you can also check them out on Facebook for all the latest updates. I I hope we can get the word out to see what they could get done with a Studio and a real budget behind them!

Sony Announces Playstation Now, Will Be Streaming Playstation Games To Your PS3, PS4, Tablet and Smartphone Soon.

On January 7, 2014 By AnjelIn Entertainment, Games, Games, News, Online, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Network, VITALeave a comment

Today at CES (the Consumer Electronics Show), Sony announced how they are planning to utilize the cloud streaming service Gaikai that they purchased previously. They will be creating what they are calling Playstation Now, and it will allow streaming of Playstation games across all sorts of mediums, starting obviously with the PS3, Vita and PS4 game systems, but also going on to be used on tablets, smartphones and even Sony’s own line of Bravia TV’s. This new game streaming will be tied in with Sony’s new IPTV Service that they announced at CES as well

Big news from Andrew: Today Sony will introduce a new cloud-based TV service that combines live TV content with digital media #CES2014

— Sony Electronics USA (@SonyElectronics) January 7, 2014

Sony has stated that this new streaming service will be either rental or subscription based and that PSN features like trophies, online multiplayer and messages will be making their way to it as well, even when you are on the go. This is starting to look like a very promising idea from Sony and would allow PS4 users access to the back catalog of PS3 games that they may have missed. The idea that this may end up being a “Netflix” for games is a very interesting idea, especially when we start talking about streaming and playing these games with just a Bravia TV.

Sony has announced that they will be having a PS3 beta for this service towards the end of January, followed by a larger US rollout in the summer. If you are interested in being a part of the beta, you can head over to Sony’s website Here and signup for more info.

We will be keeping an eye on this story, but so far, this is looking like a very promising idea from Sony and personally, I am very excited to see how this turns out.
