"With his help, Twitter plans to forge relationships with everyone in the gaming community, from developers and creators to event coordinators for conventions like E3 and PAX, and down to individuals like esports athletes and YouTube and Twitch streamers to create content for users,". Twitter has employed Rodrigo Velloso who has worked for two years at the Google owned Youtube, this could be a game changer for Twitter, even though they are already a big social platform for Gamers this could bring even more content for us and even maybe Twitter inspired events.
Kojima will not stop making Games until he can't no more -News
"Hearing that affirmed to me that my role in this world is to keep on making big games for as long as I can," Kojima said. "That is the mission I've been given in life." Kojima is not letting Konami let him down and continues to do what he loves which is making games for the audience that enjoy his content, which is the majority of the gaming population. So expect more from the Writing master that is Hideo Kojima.
Merry Xmas to all console players you are getting hacked -News
If you remember last year both PSN and Xbox Live were taken out by DDOS attacks from Lizard Squad. This year Phantom Squad are threatening again .The problem its incredibly hard to stop. It involves flooding a server with automated requests, overloading it so that real people can't get a look in. There are ways to minimize them but it's notoriously hard to stop entirely. So if your on console good luck trying to get on servers this Xmas on your favorite games, but don't worry it doesn't last for a long time, maybe 24 hours, You will survive!
My Top 10 Best Games of the Year 2015 -Gist
Well, let me start off by saying this is my personal list so please don't hate on my opinion, each person has a different experience with the game, so be thoughtful.
*Not in any particular order*
10. Halo 5
This game was highly anticipated by many fans, it did live up to the hype and was an extraordinary experience playing through the campaign, but since the campaign was so short and left me wanting more out of this game it is lower than the others in my list. The multiplayer is super fun and the new mechanics they have added just makes the experience all the while better.
9. Life is Strange
This game was a fresh-new game that nobody knew would leave the person at the end mind-fucked. The experience playing through this game, made you think before you made decisions that later on you might regret, the going back in-time feature was a new thing, and gave us the opportunity to go back and correct our wrongs. This game overall was overwhelming, how could anyone know that the life a teenage girl could be so rough?
8. Rocket League
Cars+Football= Intense fun. This game is a casual multiplayer game that blew everyone's expectations sky-high. It is fun especially with friends and be quite honest i cant stop playing it.
7. Metal Gear Solid: Phantom Pain
The not-last installment since Konami is working on a new one without Kojima (Idiots). Kojima's last MGS game lest us blown away with its lengthy campaign and its new open-world style. The new weapons, dog and Quiet who is one of my favorite characters all left us, speechless. Even though the game feels empty at times it is totally worth a play, if your a fan of Kojima's work or just want a new game to play.
6. Batman Arkham Knight
The last game by RockSteady Studios was a nice conclusion to the amazing series. Adding the batmobile and new combat mechanics kept us thrilled to continue on our journey to find out who the Arkham Knight is. The villains and the Joker (who was adored by many) give the game a sense of achievement and a verdict to the Death of the Bat.
5. Assassins creed Syndicate
This is the latest installment in the series, and in my opinion one of the best ones, the mechanics that they added and the addition of the ability to play with two different characters that are twins and are completelty different styles from each other. One Stealthy the other a Brute. The story is basically the same as the others but, there is no game-breaking bugs or frame-drop which gives it a plus compared to its prequel Unity.
4. Need For Speed (2015)
The game that took 2 year to develop brought back the game that we have always wanted, its basically an Underground 3, which is something that all the fans of the series have wanted, Ghost Games keeps making the game even better with free DLC and multiplayer only style, which makes the game feel alive and like a car infested city of Ventura-Bay.
3. Just Cause 3
EXPLOSIONS!! That is the main fun-factor of this game and it never gets boring since you have so many things you can place explosives on and make cool montages. Rico looks way better than he ever has in the games, and the addition of a hook-shot and a gliding-suit makes the game even more fun to play. I cant wait to see what the developers have install for the next few months for us.
1&2 i still have no idea its a hard decision with all the amazing games that have come out this year so give me a little time for this one :D Maybe you guys can suggest me some ;)

Bayonetta has joined the Smash Bros. Roster -News
Bayonetta who is one of the female stars at Nintendo, she debuted on the Wii and had a second game release on the Wii U, which was highly praised for their Hack-and-Slash mechanics and the easter-eggs and witch mechanics placed in their games. So now we will have to see what happens with the attacks that are placed for her in Smash and see what her character design will look like. Cloud joined last month and that sprung amazing reactions from fans, what will happen with this...
Wanna work on a new Metal Gear Solid go to Konami.. -News
After Kojima left two days ago, Konami has already published an article on their site looking for people to work on the next installment of Metal Gear Solid. This is a bold yet stupid move by Konami since most fans liked the franchise for Kojimas work, Konami was only a means that he could produce and show his work to the public. So stating that they are working on the sequel is just another reason to despise Konami with a passion. I bet a year from now they will regret their decisions when they get less sales then they expect. Lets see how this news is evaluated by the gaming community.

Jack The Ripper DLC Gameplay -Video
Gameplay
This new DLC that Ubisoft has developed seems to be more interesting and deep then the base-game itself, the fact that you are able to play as the Ripper himself makes me want it to be released as soon as possible. The game is set 20 years in the future from the events of Syndicate and you play as Evie who is now looking for her "missing" brother. The Ripper has a different fighting style than the twins, which adds an interesting and intriguing mechanic into the game it is called the "Fear" style, which means that you will brutally murder and screech in front of foes and pedestrians alike.

Kojima Productions create a deal with Sony -News
The new development studio is now called "Kojima Productions", and Kojima has now made a deal with Sony to make a collaborated game that will release on PS4 and in the near future PC. We still dont have any details on the game that the team is working on but since its Hideo Kojima we need not worry. He is known for his award-winning writting and game design as we see with the "Metal Gear Solid" series which is still licensed by Konami. So Kojima has to make something completely new.

Call of Duty Points more like money snatcher... -News
Activision has announced that they will be adding something called Call of Duty Points which to a gamer means "Microtransactions" giving you an edge of an advantage to other players who do not place money on their account. With theses points you can buy more supply drops and get more items in zombies. $2 for 200, $10 for 1,000 (+100 bonus), $20 for 2,000 (+400 bonus), and $40 for 4,000 (+1,000 bonus). These are the price listings for the points. Its a sad truth what our gaming community has come to, making us pay real money to get virtual items that will just be left in that one game and not move to another, even though this is a yearly released game....

Hideo Kojima Leaving Konami to create his own Studio -News
Source
Well it turns out we were right that Konami were being absolute douches to Hideo, and he decides to leave. Konami got booed at the "Game Awards" and reportedly banned Kojima to come and claim his award which increased the hate towards Konami. If Hideo Kojima can pull himself up and actually pull through with making his own Studio, we will have some of the best narrative driven games out there, he is known for Metal Gear Solid, well if he can get his rights back then we will have more future games and an amazing developer who deserves every gamer support.

Ghost in a Shell new Gameplay -Video
The Gameplay by Ethos
This Anime inspired FPS on PC, has been highly anticipated by a lot of players for its relase on the 14th of December. The gameplay seems like a generic FPS looking like a boot-leg version of Call of Duty but it seems to have an anime twist to it, with a less realistic take onto the fps genre of games. Play as an elite augmented soldier, where your unique skillsets and weaponry make you faster, tougher and more lethal than any human combatant in the urban battlefields of the future. Combine unique abilities with your team via SkillSync, to decimate your enemies and turn the tide of the battle. Fight on the front lines of a dark, dystopian cyberpunk world in this intense first person shooter inspired by the critically acclaimed franchise. This description of the game certainly depicts what we see in the gameplay footage. We will have to see what is in store for us with this game in the future.
Ethos Gaming, allowed me to use his footage for this game. He is also known for being a good friend of the Black Hokage and being a part of the gaming illuminaughty podcast on Youtube. Please take a look at his channel, if you want to see a different take on gaming.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake is Turning into Life is Strange... -News
Now, I know what you may be thinking how do these two games have anything in common except for being published by the same company Square Enix. Well Final Fantasy 7 Remake has just been revealed to us that it will be an episodic game, this is understandable since the original PS1 game had 6-7 discs, this game is huge and especially with today's graphics Hooo baby it will be a doozy.... But this will also mean that we will have to buy each episode like with Life is Strange.. Lets see how this fairs up with hardcore old-school gamers. I personally believe that this a economic approach/Developing problem, this approach means that Square Enix will make more money and produce more content for us which is great, but they might be hiding the fact that while you are playing episode 1 they would be making episode 2 since this is such an immensely huge game.

Uncharted 4 has "Few" Player Choices -News
Uncharted 4 Creative Director expressed on a podcast with Kinda Funny games that "There's a few spots in the game where we felt a dialogue option would give us something interesting. So with Sam talking to Nate about his previous adventures, we were like, 'Oh, this is kind of a cool nod to the fans' [...] So where would Nate start the story, which one? Let's give the player the option and they can start the story however they want." At the end he expresses how this is nothing like a Tell-Tale game and they placed this function into this game to tie in the three predecessors to this game and flashback to them and give old-time players nostalgia for the last game in the series.

Call of Duty BlackOps III gets an Update -News
Source
What the update does is unclear yet since Activision have not released a Statement saying exactly what has changed, but from what players can see, there is a new "Quick Join" option on the multiplayer menu to make it simpler to join your favorite game modes. The Black Market has also gained three new weapons to go for, "Wrench" , "Butter Knife" and "Brass Knuckles". That should keep players busy until the next DLC or update.
