Sony looks at PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3 ahead of expected PlayStation 4 reveal.
Sony has continued its Evolution series of videos on the PlayStation Meeting 2013 site, ahead of the New York event on February 20 where the company is widely expected to formally unveil the PlayStation 4.
Following on from Friday's video, which chronicled the life of the original PlayStation--and also potentially teased a PlayStation 4 announcement on Wednesday, the two new videos go on to detail the success of the PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3.
"Working with Toshiba, PlayStation 2 was powered by all-new technology, including the breakthrough Emotion Engine CPU," says the first video. "If driving the transition into a digital future wasn't enough," adds the second video, "PlayStation 3 also brought with it a new way to play: with the Move controller. This unique controller would help offer a new level of motion-controlled gaming never before seen on a PlayStation console."
On top of that, two photographs of the PlayStation 4's devkit controller have recently surfaced online, showing a front-facing touch screen, integrated speaker, and headphone jack.
The device will drop from its 24,980 yen ($266) and 29,980 yen ($319) launch price--for the Wi-Fi and 3G/Wi-Fi model, respectively--to a 19,980 yen ($213) price tag for both versions of the console. The price cut will be effective starting February 28.
Fighting game from Asura’s Wrath developer to also have limited edition featuring sculpted figure of main character Jotaro Kujo.
Fans of the JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure manga series can look forward to taking their favourite characters into battle, as Namco Bandai has announced the release date of the upcoming PS3 game JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure All-Star Battle.
The game will be out in Japan on August 29 in both standard and limited editions. The latter will contain the game, a sculpted figure of Jotaro Kujo, a gold plate featuring a drawing by series creator Hirohiko Araki, a soundtrack disc, a notepad themed after series character Hayato Kawajiri, and a special box to house the aforementioned items. The bundle will cost gamers 16,980 yen ($182), while the standard edition will cost 7,980 yen ($85).
First-print runs of both the standard and limited editions will contain a DLC code to download one of the series’ antagonist Yoshikage Kira as a playable character. For more information on the fighting game, check out our Tokyo Game Show 2012 demo video above.
The beta, dubbed as phase one, will feature a Full Active Time Events system. These quick events will take place in non-instanced areas and can happen to random to players as long as they are within proximity. Players aren’t required to party up to experience these encounters.
The phase one beta will be limited to areas around the Gridania nation. Players can also expect to check out an instanced dungeon, complete with a boss battle, that only allow players who are at level 30.
Aliens: Colonial Marines knocks Dead Space 3 down to second place.
Gearbox's panned FPS Aliens: Colonial Marines has shot to the top of the UK charts despite its massive critical drubbing.
Aliens: Colonial Marines also enjoyed the best opening-week sales of any game this year so far--beating Dead Space 3, which Aliens: Colonial Marines also shunted into second place in the charts.
But could the sales numbers be down to the fact Aliens: Colonial Marines launched on a Tuesday, whereas Dead Space 3 launched on a Friday?
FIFA 13 is third, enjoying a 39 per cent sales increase this week thanks to young people being off on half-term. Call of Duty: Black Ops II takes fourth, Far Cry 3 fifth, Assassin's Creed 3 sixth, Need for Speed: Most Wanted seventh, Just Dance 4 eighth, Sonic & All-Stars Racing: Transformed ninth, and Halo 4 tenth.
