Bungie’s Destiny Gameplay World Premiere

Destiny. Become Legend.
Destiny. Become Legend.

One of the biggest things that Sony revealed at it’s 2013 E3 conference, second to maybe the software specs and price, was a good 12 minutes of live gameplay footage from Bungie’s next big game Destiny. Fans expected there to be something about Destiny at the conference but this just rocked audiences. If you don’t know; Destiny is an upcoming, epic, sci-fi, action, first-person shooter, made by Bungie and Published by Activision, that takes place in a, somewhat, destroyed future. The creaters of Halo have done such a great job on this game and you can see the sheer brilliance in the footage.

We saw things like: drop in/drop out co-op, MMO-style gameplay where a player joins with a group of other players to fight a bigger enemy, upgradable features for a few aspects of the game, different classes, it’s beautiful graphics and so much more. It was played live on the PlayStation 4.

We have the 12 minute video just below so go ahead and watch that to really get the whole picture of what this game is going to be like and just how incredible it is. Don’t forget to hit up our comments section and let us know all about what you think.

PS4 Console Hardware Revealed

ps4-hardware

The console that was mysteriously missing from the PlayStation 4 announcement event has finally shown itself during Sony’s E3 conference. Going for a modern slanted rhombus design, the console seems to be able to stand up vertically with the help of a stand as well as being placed horizontally. A blue glowing strip appears to be in the middle of the console but as we haven’t seen it plugged in yet we are not sure if it lights up. The top part of the console is made of a glossy material while the rest seems to have a matte finish. The PS4 shouldn’t have too much trouble fitting in with your other lounge room devices.

The console looks to be a good size and seems to be notably smaller than the Xbox One console. Anyone else getting flashbacks of the PS2 slim? You can check out every angle of the console in the gallery as well as the console’s big on-stage reveal in the video below. Let us know in the comments what you think of the PS4’s new hardware design.

Mad Max Game Announcement and Trailer

Mad Max The Game. E3 2013.
Mad Max The Game. E3 2013.

Sony blew away the crowd at their conference this year at E3. There were a lot of big games that were shown, a few games we saw coming and some others that we had no idea were even being thought of, one of them being the Mad Max game.

Under development at Avalanche Studios, and scheduled for release in 2014 on Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, PS4 and PC, Mad Max is a third-person action game that will deliver dynamic, open-world gameplay where gamers fight to stay alive in The Wasteland, using brutal on-ground and vehicular combat against vicious gangs of bandits. Players are challenged with treacherous missions as they scavenge the dangerous landscape for supplies to build the ultimate combat vehicle.

Samantha Ryan, Senior Vice President, Production & Development, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, said;

Mad Max places gamers directly into the driver’s seat of their ultimate customized vehicle to battle it out in the action-packed, open world of The Wasteland. We are very pleased to work with Avalanche Studios to provide a next generation gaming experience with robust fighting paired with dynamic vehicular combat.

Christofer Sundberg, Avalanche Studios Co-founder and Chief Creative Officer, added;

Over a decade of creating open world experiences has led us to this point. The Wasteland lends itself incredibly well to the high level of player freedom with which Avalanche Studios has become synonymous. This unforgiving environment inspired us to create a gritty and diverse experience where driving, fighting and scavenging are essential for survival.

I doubt anyone has been thinking that Mad Max would be turned into the game. As us here at Capsule Computers watched the conference and the trailer started we all assumed it was some sort of new game from the Fallout series or even something new from Fist of The North Star but no…it was Mad Max. And even though the announcement trailer was short and honestly didn’t show much at all, it looked great and I think it will be title that a lot of people will want to get their hands on.

The announcement trailer for Mad Max can be seen embedded below.
