Sony held the last press conference for the evening and sometimes it is best to be last. What started off as a decent presentation, it was clear at the end, Sony was out of blood and ready to curbstomp Microsoft. With price point of $399, Sony got the better of Microsoft in the price department. In a call out against Microsoft and their new attack against used games, Sony made it very clear that PS4 games could be traded, loaned out, or what ever you wanted to do with them was fine with them. If it worked so well with the PS3, why change it now? While the Xbox One is region restricted, it is now known that the PS4 will be region free as was the PS3. It is worth noting that developers can set a region lock on their software if they choose to do so. The PS4 will not require an internet connection nor will its games require any sort of online authentication. it is quite clear Sony is getting very aggressive in pursuing Microsoft’s fan base for this next generation.
E3 started off with Microsoft attempting to set the tone for the day. We learned that the new console will cost $499 at retail. During the course of the press conference, it was not surprising to see Forza being shown off as it is always a crowd pleasure. The next entry in Halo will be called just that… Halo. I am usually not one to make fun of game names but I think their marketing team could have worked a little harder on that one. What was hinted at earlier this year has been finally uncovered, that being said, Killer Instinct is returning to consoles. It’s last appearance took place during a generation that was based in 16 bit graphics and could be a new contender for today’s fighting games. Killer Instinct will free to play on the Xbox One but will only come with one playable character.

Arma Tactics THD takes the best from the popular strategy genre and goes mobile. The finest assets used in the critically acclaimed Arma™ series on PC now come to life on the Android mobile platform, in one of the best looking mobile games to date.
Arma Tactics THD is a turn-based close-combat strategy game, where the player takes control of a four-member Special Forces team. There are no given strategies, rails to move on, or paths to follow; it‘s up to the player to decide how he will play through both the story-driven missions and generated missions with randomized objectives. Whether using stealth or a more direct approach, players will need to use their strategic thinking and use both basic and advanced weaponry while facing many different opponents – ranging from unorganized local militia to smart and skilled mercenaries.
