‘Destiny: House of Wolves’ Leaks in 48 HD Images Alongside Release Date

Destiny_House_Of_Wolves_36

Destiny fans rejoice; thanks to a massive leak of images (48 to be exact), we’ve been able to get our first good look at House of Wolves, the upcoming DLC for PS3 and PS4 (and those other consoles). According to the leaked info, Destiny: House of Wolves will launch on May 19 where previous rumors had pegged a March timeframe. If true, it only means more time for the team at Bungie to work on the new DLC, which is just fine in my book. So what can we expected from the new DLC besides new zones and maps? How about a level 39 cap to go along with a slew of new gear. As it is with such things, take the rumors with a grain of salt as they are subject to change which is the same message Bungie has for gamers.

After the jump, the response from Bungie and the drool worthy images.

Earlier this week, Square Enix teased a top secret title which by the looks of it is a PS4 exclusive. ‘Tokaigi: Game Party Japan’ nearest I can tell is a two day conference similar PAX. The conference will host several live tournaments, stage events, cosplayers, and a show floor. This year it will be held at Makuhari Messe International Exhibition Hall. Simply titled Project Code Z, the teaser site features a simple black background and shifting logo along with a reveal date and a Twitter account. Set to be revealed during their stage event, one wonders what type of game it will be.

‘Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn’ Update 2.5 Trailer Will Make FF Fans Drool

FF14_Befoere_The_FallFinal Fantasy XIV may have had a rocky launch when it was released a few years ago but that’s nothing but a distant and faded memory now. Released for well over a year, Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn has shaped to be a stellar MMORPG that was able to correct the errors of FF14 and effectively reboot the tale on PC, PS3, and PS4. Now Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn update 2.5 looks to finish out the story arc introduced in update 2.0 in an epic fashion that screams Final Fantasy.

Square Enix will release this saga in increments, starting with Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn Update 2.5 Part I which went live on January 20th. Then sometime in late February, Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn Update 2.51 will become available, bringing with it the Golden Saucer (yes that one) that appropriately includes mini games like Triple Triad, Cactuars, and Chocobo racing. Finally Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn Update 2.5 Part II, which includes the ‘Keeper of the Lake’ dungeon, will make its debut sometime in late March.

After the jump, an epic 10 minute trailer awaits you which I highly recommend watching. Also recommended is a credit card in hard as you’ll surely be buying this game after watching the trailer.

Nyko Expands PS4’s Storage and Typing Capabilities

The future is now at this past Consumer Electronics Show, the place to be if you want to see what new gizmos companies will want you to buy. While normally CES is all about TVs and smart phones there’s been some interesting announcements for gamers as well. This was the place where a year ago Steam Machines and PlayStation Now were announced. This year PlayStation Now subscription services and PlayStation Vue were announced. What is also interesting are the third party announcements like the ones from Nyko.

‘PlayStation Now’ Heads To Samsung TVs

CES_2015_PlayStation_Now_Samsung_TV_1

One of the oddest things to see at CES 2015 was PlayStation Now running on Samsung televisions. For those unfamiliar, PlayStation Now is the gaming streaming app from Sony where you can play PS3 games without needing a console by either renting or subscribing to the service. Already available on PS3, PS4, and PS Vita, PlayStation Now continues to grow on the variety of platforms it’s offered on. Just at CES, Sony announced their new lineup of Blu-ray players which support PlayStation Now. Think about it, a Blu-ray player that not only plays your physical media like DVD/Blu-ray, but one that can stream from many services including Netflix, Hulu, and now game via PlayStation Now.

While bringing the service to the 2015 line of Sony 4K and HD televisions seems like a no brainer and one that Sony has done, coming to Samsung televisions is an entirely different thing.

JuanLatino, A user on NeoGaf took a screenshot of a Ex-Naughty Dog developer’s Linkedin account  on there is the hint of The Last of Us 2. If you access the developer Michael Knowland’s Linkedin now the information has since been removed. Though it really gets one thinking about where the series will go next. Though there hasn’t been any official statements made by Sony in regards of the legitimacy of this so take it with a grain of salt. The image below shows the previous experience before it was changed.
