My Final Thoughts on Titanfall as the Beta Nears Its End
As the Titanfall beta comes to a close (later on Feb 19), I offer up some final thoughts of my impressions on the beta and the game. It also shows off the Hardpoint Domination mode with the two beta maps, Burn Cards, challenges, and character progression. It should also be noted that during the upload (or encoding) process, some weird video skips popped up. Those major hiccups were not seen in the game itself, though there were a few other minor framerate hiccups here and there.... -

Not content with releasing comparison statistics and still image comparisons, Hideo Kojima has now released a new video comparison for Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes. He shows off each version of the game and the visual differences between them.
Kojima just Tweeted something extra about this video. He says that "special treatment for the sky is made for PS4 based on atmosphere simulation." So yes, it seems as though the PlayStation 4 version has yet another one-up... -

Blizzard Introduces $60 Automatic Level 90 Boost in World of Warcraft
Why pay some stranger a lot of money to level your World of Warcraft characters, when you can pay Blizzard just $60 to get you to level 90 immediately!
This may or may not be the final price. WoW Insider speculates that this wasn't even supposed to be live yet since pre-orders were not yet live. Thus, there is a small chance that this isn't the final price. However, the ability to purchase the automatic boost was apparently live on a number of servers, so make of that what y... -

Final Fantasy 7 Remake Would Take Longer to Develop than the Final Fantasy 13 Trilogy
In speaking with Joystiq, Final Fantasy producer, Yoshinori Kitase, said that while he would love to do an HD version of Final Fantasy 7, the work load would be more than the entire Final Fantasy 13 trilogy.
Keeping in mind that the trilogy of Final Fantasy 13 games took over 10 years to develop and release and you should have a better idea of how big of a task it would be to remake Final Fantasy 7 with modern visuals and high definition audio.

A Work Around for the 'Black Screen' Bug for Xbox One Users After Latest Update
Though the latest Xbox One update brought about some much needed new functionality to the system, it also brought about a curious issue that many gamers are experiencing. Some are reporting that after they turn their system on, they are met with only a blank, black screen.
Microsoft is aware of the issue and have already provided an easy work around.
Yes, it's just that easy to fix. Hold the power button down for 10 seconds and reboot your Xbox ... -

Unofficial Gameplay Footage for The Order: 1886
Here is just the briefest glimpses of gameplay from The Order: 1886. You've already seen two new non-gameplay trailers today so why not see how the game looks in action. The footage is not direct from Sony or Ready at Dawn and may also not be direct feed either (crackling sound in places, cuts, etc.).
It's not very telling from the footage shown if it's all narrow corridors and Telltale style quick time events, so keep your fingers crossed that the full game isn't merely Gears of... -

New Trailers for the PS4 Exclusive - The Order: 1886
A couple of new trailers have come out today for the PlayStation 4 exclusive, The Order: 1886. Unfortunately, neither of them actually show any gameplay, but we'll get back to that in the next news post.
The next trailer seems like a bit of a "Cliff's Notes" version of the announcement trailer from E3 2012. Just for the hell of it, we'll include it anyway.

PlayStation 4 has Sold over 5.3 Million Units to Date
As of February 8, the PlayStation 4 has already surpassed 5.3 million units sold throughout North America, Latin America, Europe, and a few parts of Asia. That figure is just Sony's estimate on sell-through to the end consumer, so the actual number of units sold to retailers may be a bit higher.
Though I can't imagine the number would be that much higher since it's still next to impossible to find a PlayStation 4 in stock anywhere, at least here in the States. Last month,... -

Hard Mode Coming to FTL: Advanced Edition
For those wondering just how the hell FTL could possibly get any harder, your guess is as good as mine. I haven't even beat the game on Easy yet and they're adding a Hard mode to the game.
Hard Mode: For our more masochistic fans, we’ve also added an additional Hard difficulty to the game. More challenging enemy generation, lower scrap rewards, and other small tweaks should help keep the game interesting for anyone who might be bored of Normal.Of course that wasn't...

BioShock Developer Irrational Games 'Winding Down' as Most Employees are Laid Off
Ken Levine updated the Irrational Games website earlier today with a sad message for fans of the BioShock series and System Shock 2, to name a couple. He says that Irrational Games will be "winding down" and that he will be moving to a "smaller, more entrepreneurial endeavor" at Take-Two.
He also says that this means having to let go of all but 15 employees at Irrational Games. Here is Ken Levine's message to the fans.
When Jon Chey, Rob Fermier and I founded Irrational...
