Xbox One With Full Keyboard And Mouse Support Might Be a Reality Soon!
The Xbox One could soon get full keyboard and mouse support, as an intriguing tweet from Microsoft’s Phil Spencer indicates. The competition between Sony’s PlayStation 4 and Microsoft’s Xbox One is quite heated as is — but full keyboard and mouse support could give the Xbox One a significant edge over its archrival. The addition of full keyboard and mouse support would also expand options for users, enabling them to play more titles — including games that are not compatible with a console due to gamepad limitations. This, in turn, would expand the Xbox One’s library even further. Microsoft has not made an official announcement as to when it will add full keyboard and computer mouse support, but Phil Spencer hints in this direction with a recent tweet. Responding to ...
Patches! Gitch’yer Patches ‘ere! Arkham Knight, GTA V and Witcher 3
This week’s major updated games are: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and Batman Arkham Knight. Batman Arkham Knight‘s PC version is still not fixed, and after delaying the Batgirl DLC, WB has announced that the latest patch for the game is coming on July 27th. No fixes have been detailed yet, but prepare for one massive patch notes section this time. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt got a patch this week, the Patch 1.07, and it adds quite a bit, but it also reportedly causes performance slowdowns in consoles. CDPR is already calling it the “Largest patch for the game yet”. The patch is 7.3 GBs on consoles and around 2.2 GBs on the PC. The PC version is just a prep patch and apparently doesn’t do much, with the proper patch arriving soon. You can find a (rather too complete f...
Easter Egg in Ground Zeroes Sheds Light on Kojima-Konami Split
GamesRadar‘s Leon Hurley discovered an Easter egg in the PS3/4 (timed) exclusive mission Déjà Vu, and it’s rather unsettling: in it, you erase games directed by Kojima himself with your UV light (and only those: games not directed by him are unaffected) and then a message, seemingly by Kojima himself, plays. You can see a somewhat condensed run-through of the easter egg bit below: (note the classic Snake model from Metal Gear Solid) (video courtesy of timesplitter88) This puts a rather interesting take on the whole Kojima-Konami split, mainly that Kojima knew that it’s going to get ugly and tried to get the word out. The fact that it was in the Déjà Vu mission, which was marketed to fans of the franchise (it was released on PS3/4 first and was a timed exclusive to ...

Spotted: Halo – The Fall of Reach Animated Series Trailer
Halo: The Fall of Reach is getting a new animated series. This is the third time this story is getting told, first as a book by Eric Nylund, second as three four-issue comic book series published by Marvel, and now the animated series. The meat of the book takes place in the times before the original trilogy and concerns the pre-war human empire, the murky past of SPARTAN program and origins of Master Chief. The series has a very strong plot (I read the book and the comic. What? I was 15 and a huge Halo fan) and handles delicate topics like the morality during wars and the amount of war atrocities a government can get away with during war times, and we expect the series to be as good as it’s predecessor, Halo Legends. Halo Legends is an awesome watch by the way, boasting talent like ...

Six Upcoming First Person Shooters to Watch Out For This Season
An awful lot of the biggest games coming out this year are either RPGs or action adventures, which is fine unless you’re the kind of person I am and just cannot survive without killing mooks with things that go BAM! or BOOSH! for the rush of Adrenaline you get after fighting through hordes of enemies evenly matched to you. Fortunately for us, shooter season 2015 is right around the corner! Let’s have a look at the homocidal toys Santa has in store for good little murder happy boys and girls: Halo 5: Guardians (Xbox One) Halo 5 is the fifth game in the Master Chief saga and 7th or 8th (depending on whether you count ODST or not) title under the Halo series.

Call of Duty: Black Ops III Zombies Announced
Zombies return to Call of Duty, as we announced earlier, but this time are packing a bit of a unique flair: It’s set in the 1940’s and stars Hollywood A-Listers Jeff Goldblum, Heather Graham, Neal McDonough, Ron Perlman, and Robert Picardo. And it’s Film Noire. What! The mode is called Shadows of Evil and is set in the jazz drenched Morg City, a wretched hive of scum and villainy. with typical noire-ish (playable) characters of the Femme Fatale, the Boxer, The Cop and The Magician. And it looks amazing. Here, see for yourself: It also has a rocket powered shield, one-liners, power-ups delivered by candy and one The Darkness rip-off power-up. So that makes it the best Call of Duty Zombies DLC yet. (Sorry Kennedy and Co. from Blops 1)
Kojima Productions Asks Fans Whjat they Want in PC Version of MGS V: TPP
Kojima Production is new to the whole multi-platform game thing this generation, but they are trying so very hard to nail PC ports.

Robert Peeler, MGS’s Community manager, asked for advice on Steam forums for more PC specific features and options. The thread is here and still active at the time of writing, so if you have a specific request, knock yourself out.
