Updates

If you PS3 fan haven't already checked PSN is back on. I was very excited to hear that this morning. But if you don't own a PS3 I have some good news for you Xbox fans I am very close to getting enough money to get an Xbox. Aside from that I am working on a preview of batman Arkham City but it is taking a while because I am still trying to get all the research done. I would like to make this one amazing and I will most likely have it posted late Saturday or early Sunday. In other news I have also started a new tech blog called Tech Informer Bee and will have more posts there soon, the URL for this blog is http://techinformerbee.blogspot.com/.

Uncharted 3 Preview

Uncharted 3 comes out November 1st this year and I personally don't think I can wait that long.

Game Play

Oh no its Nathan Drake versus the world again. Well at least you have Sully for some if not most of the game. It looks like Naughty Dog redid the whole cross hair system for when you aim down the sites. They look a bit more like a boxes than the last time. It also seems as though they might have added some new weapons I can say with absolute certainty the AK  and that pistol you start of with will be in the game, ans will still probably be the weapons of choice. There are also new finishing moves in hand to hand combat and new ways to take down enemies.

See don't they look a bit boxy

Multiplayer

This multiplayer is so amped up compared to the last game. This time there are planes, cars, and other vehicles so it is like a third person Bad Co. You can also customize different aspects of the game in the multiplayer. You can customize how your weapons look and what your clothes look like. There is even a way to display your dominance, the top player has their emblem displayed on the buildings. Oh yea and the terrain is destructible.

Look at the little acid trail and muzzle flash so nice.

The vehicles are so awesome. You can put your team in the back of a truck and drive around and just have them shoot at people while you try to get to into a good position.Or you could get in a plane and gun down enemies from above.


You can add attachments like different sites or extended mags to your gun. But my guess is that the sites will just be for show though it will be interesting to see if they actually have any use. You can look at the picture below to see the different customizations you can make. You can customize what clothes and what color your character wears and you can also customize your emblem which is displayed when you are the top player. 

Whoa look at all the pretty colors.

Graphics

There isn't much to say about the graphics. They haven't changed much but they did get better. They will probably be the best graphics on the PS3. Surprisingly the only competition for graphics might be Infamous 2 and you can take a look at my article on that below. 

Look at the greenery it looks so real I want to eat it.

See look at all the individual bricks.

Thanks I will write more articles when I find a game to rent. Submit your site to the Hotvsnot.com web directory! Find sites like this in the Console Platforms Directory.

inFAMOUS 2 Preview

Game Play

The game play of this game is going to be very similar to the first one with the exception of a few new powers, different bad guys, and more difficult moral choices. The games point for a long time is to search New Marias to find new powers and along the way fight new villains.

You are no longer in New York. I know right, a new city to play around in. Unfortunately this new city comes with new villains. These villains look something like albinos with wings for arms and tentacles for their mouths. They look a lot creepier than the reapers who just had coats and skull masks. But yet again you also fight normal people in weird suits and they kind of just look stupid. Those guys were meant to fight abnormalities meaning you and the albinos. Along with new villains there are new bosses. Instead of Kessler being the end boss it’s the beast he predicted. Once you beat the game you can play user generated content or play it before you are done with the campaign to gain experience.

Not quite as scary as a winged albino

Along with Cole’s look and voice he also has some new powers it is hard to tell but two new powers are certainly in the game, they are ice and telekinesis.  It looks like he also has fire and as I learned he has some sort of lightning tornado. Cole also has this weapon called the AMP it is this sort of prong thing (a handle with two long bars) that was designed by Zeke and can be electrified and used as a melee weapon. In the game play video I was a bit surprised I looked up in the left hand corner and it seems there are no battery cores, those little blue orbs that told you how much energy you had, this made me very happy. With no battery cores you would not have to search for generators or light posts to get more sticky bombs or other attacks.

After all that your main power is still lightning

 I have heard that the moral choices in this game will be more difficult but if they really are I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

Multiplayer

There is no multiplayer for in FAMOUS 2

Graphics

The graphics in this game have improved a lot since the last game. Although they have improved they still aren’t as good as Uncharted 2. This time they gave Cole’s baldness a more buzz cut look and you can even see where there are tiny stubs of hair and where the hair would grow like in the second picture below. In these pictures you can see the time of day and how your surroundings affect the light. You can even tell where the sun is because of the shadows on Cole’s face in the second picture.

See look at those graphics

Look at the cloud and the building they are so realistic
