Halo 4 Surface Info
If you guys remember, Microsoft introduced their all new SmartGlass technology at E3 a while back. This technology basically allows you to use any portable device (smartphones or tablets) to get an additional screen, much like the new Wii U gamepad. Just like the Wii U, this added screen is essentially going to provide you with other additional gameplay options.
Well soon after E3 Microsoft announced their new line of Windows 8 tablets, Surface. The tablets themselves are impressive and keeping SmartGlass in the frame it didn't take long for people to start wondering how exactly was Microsoft going to implement this tech for both current and future console games.

Halo 4 Controller
Hey there guys. I guess you guys already read the previous article about the Halo 4 Limited Edition Console Bundle. Since then it has been pulled down from the Microsoft Store so we haven't been able to get a better look at it. But, today I bring to you the close up image of the new Halo 4 UNSC Controller:

Looks cool right? As you can see, the blue led that is supposed to be integrated instead of the green can be seen from this picture. The d-pad is also supposed to be the twist d-pad. Also notice how the controller is translucent.

Battlefield 4 News!
Hey there gamers! Last week the whole gaming community was taken by complete surprise by the news that Battlefield 4 might be in development. This news was leaked from a promotional banner for Medal of Honor Warfighter which listed that as a bonus BF4 Beta would be accessible to those who pre-order MoH Warfighter.Even though the news must have been exciting to fans there was no telling whether it was real or not. Fortunately for us, EA has confirmed with Gamespot that the BF4 is very much in the works and the Beta version would be available sometime in the Fall of 2013. I wonder if it means the game will be available by holiday

Sleeping Dogs Info
When it started out this game was called True Crime: Hong Kong and was being published by Activision. However after a certain point in development Activision decided to scrap the whole project based on the fact that the game would not be as profitable in comparison to the amount of cash required for its production.
Luckily Square Enix came to the rescue and bought off the rights to the game. Although they did not get the rights to the name and hence Sleeping Dogs was born. I would say it was a smart choice from Square Enix as the game has turned out to be one of the highly anticipated games of this year. The game is being developed by United

Medal of Honor: Warfighter
Medal of Honor is posing some serious competition against Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 this year. The Frostbite 2 engine makes that game stand out from previous shooters. It looks absolutely gorgeous and seems Danger Close are really trying to achieve new heights with this game.
Check out the campaign gameplay demo:

In an interview with Famitsu Mr. Motomu Toriyama, the director of Final Fantasy XIII and XIII-2, commented - "The Final Fantasy XIII-2 Lightning download content had an ending that left a feeling - mystery and hope. The day when the meaning of this will come to light is not too far."
As some of you might already know, at the end of FF XIII-2 players were greeted with a "to be continued" screen. Pretty much everyone guessed that this referred to FFXIII-3 but in actuality it was a DLC. However, the afore mentioned Lightning DLC (which was also the last piece of DLC) actually left players with a lot more questions than answers.
So this comment from Mr. Toriyama is most likely hinting towards FF-XIII-3. But no one is certain still; is it another installment, another DLC or is it Versus XIII that is finally going to get revealed? I really hope it is the latter!
Maybe we will get to hear more about this on the upcoming 25th Anniversary of Final Fantasy. The celebration

PlayStation 4 Specs
With high hopes of Playstation 4 coming out within the next year (best case scenario), we decide to take a look at all info about PS4 made available since April of this year. We shall try our best to summarize all info available on the rumored PS4, codenamed Orbis.
Well first off the bat is the fact that this time around there would be an advanced piracy blocking system. We all knew they were really going to increase the security of next gen systems. Additionally the reuse of games will also be blocked. This would supposedly be achieved via a download from the Playstaion Network that would lock the Blu-Ray to a specific

Halo 4 Controller and Console
Last week it was revealed from Microsoft's site that Microsoft will be releasing a Limited Edition Halo 4 Xbox 360 Console Bundle that comes with a Halo 4 controller.

Either way I guess more people were actually expecting a console bundle. I mean it's HALO, Microsoft HAD to do it. Here is what you get with this bundle
