New Infamous Second Son screens show neon powers
So far we know Delsin has a range of powers in PS4‘s inFamous; Second Son and these new screens show his neon abilities in action. The main benefit seems to be a speed boost as well as prettier projectiles – because if you are going to die it’s comforting to think you looked good. One of Delsin’s skills is apparently the ability to take other conduit’s powers, which should open up the options some what. We’ve seen the neon power coming from a female character called Abigail Walker, also known as Fetch. The process doesn’t exactly look painless and it’s unclear weather she survives – could this the game’s new moral twist? Check out the neon powers in the gallery below
Razer showcases the World’s Most Modular PC Concept Design
There’s no need to try and reinvent the wheel, and some might argue the same applies to desktop PCs. Not Razer, a company that’s best known for its PC gaming peripherals. Razer has set out to reinvent gaming desktops with a modular PC concept that’s currently called Project Christine. The idea is to simplify the processing of setting up a PC, make future upgrades easy, and eliminate obsolescence. At a glance, the renderings look a little like Thermaltake’s Level 10 line. Project Christine takes things to another level with a modular design that makes it super simple (in theory) to swap out modules on-the-fly. The way Razer explains it, a user can slot-in additional graphics modules and add more storage by either swapping out the existing storage drives or adding more modules, all on-the-fl...
Razer Unveils the Nabu Smartband
Razer is a company that is huge in the desktop gaming industry, but they have never really been well known for mobile devices like a phone or tablet. At this year’s CES, Razer announced the all-new Nabu smartband – it’s kind of like a smartwatch, “but a lot less distracting.” The Nabu is similar to the Nike FuelBand, but goes a step further, as it also displays your smartphone’s notifications, communicates with other Nabu bands that are nearby, and can be controlled by active gestures the user performs. For instance, you can set the Nabu to transfer Twitter or Instagram information with another Nabu user, simply by giving the other person a high five. Want to give your phone number to a hot gamer chick that is wearing Nabu? All you have to do is shake her hand and the information will inst...

Now Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo can all breathe a sigh of relief after China announced it has temporarily lifted its long-term ban on foreign video game consoles, allowing products like the PS4, Xbox One and the Wii U to take a dip into the economy of a potentially massive market.

He went on praising Nintendo in various areas, calling Nintendo’s first-party games an “amazing asset” and said that Nintendo’s platforms “are almost in service to the IP – not in a bad way.” He also attributed the positive response of Killer Instinct on the Xbox One to Nintendo, since Rare’s originated from Nintendo.

Their first party studios and IP can lead what they do as a company and the platforms are almost in service to the IP – not in a bad way. They have such iconic ...
