If you can dream it you can do it… And that is what Disney Interactive has done with their upcoming title Disney Infinity. Now I know what some of you are probably thinking “that is just like Skylanders!” And well you’d be right. To a point. But it is everything Skylanders isn’t. It is Disney! Walt Disney is well known for some of the best kids movies of all time. And that is debatable as I have yet to see a Disney movie I did not like.

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible.”

So here’s the low down.

In Disney Infinity players will get to experience a whole new game universe where they can play as their favourite Walt Disney and Pixar characters as well as create stories with endless opportunities. You will place your ‘real-world pieces onto a base that will activate a specific story connect to the piece. These pieces are figurines, power discs and landmarks. That not only allow you to play an original story in game but also double as cool action figures for your home.

The original “Play Sets” for the game are Monsters University, Pirates of the Caribbean and The Incredibles. Players will take on the role of one character from each play set; Sully, Jack Sparrow and Mr. Incredible, to battle their enemies, solve puzzles and so much more. As you play through the game you unlock/collect other characters, upgrades, vehicles etc that will be saved to your “toy box”. The Toy box can be accessed at any time to create your very own one-of-a-kind Disney adventure. Bringing to life the Disney theme “If you can dream it you can do it.”

Here are the Key FEATURES:

• Creative Play: The ”Toy Box” combined with an open world environment, allowing you to create your own stories and customize your own adventures.
• Infinite Storyline Possibilities: Since Disney is all about stories they have decided to put the story creation in your hands.
• Across All Platforms: A whole new world  that features toy inspired art where characters can exist and interact in one game and across Xbox360, PS3, Wii, Wii U, PC and online.
• Interactive Figures Activate In-Game Adventures and Customizations: 

1. You will originally be introduced to 40 collectible interactive figures. This combines characters, landmark pieces and power discs. Similar to that of DLC you be able to expand your play experience over time.
2. There will be 17 interactive character figures, such as Sully, Mike, Jack Sparrow, Davy Jones, Mr. Incredible etc.
3. 3 Landmark pieces that add new “Play Set” locations.
4. 20 power discs. These will enhance the environments and add cool gadgets.

• Co-op Multiplayer Action: Disney Infinity will support 2 player co-op play in structured adventures and up to 4 players in the “Toy Box” mode.

“You can design and create, and build the most wonderful place in the world. But it takes people to make the dream a reality.”

So with all that being said I am sure you are wondering how much and when. Disney Infinity is $74.99 and includes the 3 figures; Sully, Jack and Mr. Incredible, a power disk and a free character of your choice when you pre-order at participating locations. Disney Infinity releases August 18th for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, Wii U and PC.

So even though you may spend a ‘little’ money with this title, hakuna matata, I am sure you will love it. It is after all our problem-free philosophy!

Now all I need is to see some of my all time favourite classic Disney characters and that will be my favourite day.

Quantum Break an Xbox One exclusive was obviously developed only for the new Xbox. Which means PlayStation gamers don’t get any of the awesomeness that can be seen below. Quantum Break is a game that combines both Television and gaming into one seamless and beautiful product. Not surprising since this upcoming title was developed by Remedy Entertainment, the same people behind Alan Wake and Max Payne. Both of which are popular and AWESOME titles themselves.

In Quantum Break the hero is desperate to save the future before time runs out… literally. Time is broken down into split second moments of destruction were your actions directly impact the game. And a personalized “Directors Cut” is made just for you based on these decisions. Check out the epic video below!

I’m in Saints Row Trick… never mind, just watch the trailer.

Development of Crimes & Punishments is well on its way. And to show fans of the Sherlock Holmes series exactly how much they have released 4 new awesome screens. These screens show that this new Sherlock Holmes title will have the biggest steps ever in the series. This is because they have given up their engine for Epic’s Unreal Engine 3 which allows the game  to benefit from richer and more detailed visuals for both the characters and their environments.

Along with better graphics players will experience better mechanics like such as; new gameplay mechanics, 14 to be exact, as well as 8 cases with moral choices that will give you the feeling of actually being Sherlock Holmes himself.

For more information AND more screens check out their official site.

The Zumba Fitness franchise is well known world wide and has officially sold more than 9,000,000 copies. Recently, at the E3 2013 conference, Majesco Entertainment unveiled the first Xbox One screenshots.

Zumba Fitness World Party is a dance styled fitness game that is “culturally-rich”. They are trying to inspire a global movement which as of today has reached over 185 countries. This game is not only fun but GOOD for you. You can burn UP TO 1,00 calories every single hour that you play. Simple by immersing yourself into the music by dancing to some very exotic destinations. There are over 40 high-energy routines in this new game and you will be able to work out to an all new “red hot soundtrack” that features popular stars like Lady Gaga and Pitbull.

Zumba Fitness is developed by Zoe Mode as will launch later this year for Xbox One, Kinect for Xbox 360, Will U, and Wii.

Be sure to check out the new screens below. And if you missed it before I have also included the teaser trailer.

Wolfenstein: The New Order, developed under MachineGames, is set to release later this year. And will be available for both NEW generation consoles; Xbox ONE & PS4, as well as Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.

Be warned… this trailer will leave you barking mad, with excitement that is.

Release Date: June 5^th, 2013

Developer: Undead Labs

Publisher: Microsoft Studios

Platform: [Reviewed: Xbox LIVE Arcade]

Genre: Survival-Horror, Action

Rated: M for Mature

Being a startup developer, Undead Labs had set ambitious goals for their own take on the zombie genre of games. With so many zombie games focusing on other aspects, State of Decay drives for what a zombie apocalypse should really be about: survival.

State of Decay has a typical story: zombies show up and you and your buddies do what they can to survive against the “cannibals”, only to hilariously put two and two together after a while and realize that those were zombie trying to eat you! Starting off is pretty straight to the point. Players are thrown straight into the game as a man named Marcus, but players can switch between others to take over for a while. With nothing but a journal mentioning some “backstory” you will have the characters sub-par dialog to help piece together what has happened. Before too long you join a community of fellow survivors and that’s when the game shows no mercy.

Apart from a few hints explaining the controls you will not have anyone but you and your wits to keep you alive outside of your established outpost. As you explore the impressively large landscapes you will encounter lots of locations to ransack for supplies and a bunch of brain-munchers to kill.

Killing zombies will level up almost all of your skill while running will improve cardio. The leveling system works and it does feel like you’re improving your characters bit by bit, but it is basic in the purest sense as all you do is bash in zombie heads and run. Even when your character has leveled up some skills don’t assume that you’ve become this invincible zombie slayer as it only takes a couple of undead to rip you a new one.

Balance and maintenance is the exceptionally well done core mechanic as everything from maintaining your stamina to keeping your community safe and sane can be the difference between living and being in the maw of an undead. As you scrounge the surrounding areas for supplies you will notice that you will always just have enough to get by on. With a constant narrowing of supplies you have the weight of not only your life, but the lives of others hanging in the balance.

As a part of a leaderless group you can step up and use your influence, and supplies you find in the world around, as the in-game currency. Accessing the home page via pressing up on the D-Pad you can see your current outpost and how you can improve upon it. You can upgrade a room’s current operations to run more efficiently like a med-bay or improve a guard tower. You can also assign tasks that can further aid you like contacting neighboring outpost about the location of resources and getting in touch with people to join your group to reinforce your numbers.

Neglecting to find the aforementioned balance needed to survive can and will lead to the permanent death of many of your characters. Having your character die is one thing, but having your character that you’ve spent hours on building their stats and skills die hits a little deeper. With similar games like Dead Rising it’s not about surviving as much as it is having fun decimating the undead hordes, but State of Decay has the threat of death and failure ever-present to give us a true sense of despair and desperation – something not previously seen in zombie games.

With a clear emphasis on survival you are not tasked with eliminating all the zombies in your path, even if you are accustomed to it, your main focus to stay alive as even the simplest of missions could mean disaster. You’ll come across melee weapons and guns to fend off the undead, but a full frontal assault would be ill-advised as your stamina bar will keep your from simply mashing the melee button to solve all your problems. Some zombies can run as fast or even faster than you so stealth is your best bet as you can instantly kill zombies with a powerful takedown. But if you do find zombies breathing down your neck you have items to recover stamina and throwing items to distract or set ablaze your pursuers.

In this world full of “zeds” looking to gnaw your face off you’ll find yourself in camping grounds in the mountains to the forests all around. While the setting is perfect for gameplay the visuals falls a bit flat. While the visuals are nice it is also what holds the game back from being an engaging experience. You can notice some of the objects have and insanely obscure draw distance, even if you’re merely meters away. There are texture pop-ups that occur often and several times out of nowhere the screen seems to tear breaking whatever comatose state of zombie bliss you may have been in.

The other thing that takes away from the experience is how zombie is apparently half ghost as they can randomly phase through objects and walls. There were a couple of times where my character will audibly give me the all clear then suddenly a zombie goes through a wall next to me and starts chomping away at me!

Most of what Undead Labs set out to accomplish they nailed right on the head. The brooding atmosphere and looming consequences of death bring onto players an uneasiness that enforces a moment to reassess a situation before diving head first. Although the combat and leveling is simple it does well to keep players engaged. But the technical issues with the game keep it from being the true escape to the zombie apocalypse as I am constantly reminded by pop-ups and tears and companion AI can be dumb at times. Even so, in my 12+ hours of playing I ultimately I had a lot of fun and plan on doing another play through. For only $20 this title has a lot to offer as far as entertainment, but is just shy of being up there with its Triple-A brethren. Regardless, State of Decay has become one of my favorite zombie games!

“To celebrate the success and popularity of the METAL GEAR SOLID franchise, we are working hard to bring our fans the next installment on next-generation consoles,” said Tomoyuki Tsuboi, President of Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc. “We are excited to give players the traditional, high-quality and immersive experience of a METAL GEAR title, while also delighting them with new, innovative aspects to the game.”

Fans of the series will definitely agree with the words spoken by Mr. Tsuboi as we surely have more than a lot to look forward to.

My heart dropped when the original voice of snake was announced to long longer be a part of the series. Then, it almost burst of my chest when the name that highlighted my favorite actor in a mere 5 syllables was taking the challenge, Keifer Sutherland.

Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain, planned to release on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 as well as XBOX 360 and XBOX One will be using its new FOX engine displaying “photorealistic visual quality,” equally through gameplay and cutscenes.

Phantom Pain will also use realtime weather, so as the time of day or night passes through, you will experience the same atmosphere in the game. Take a look at the extended director’s cut of the Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain below:

No better world could be stringed together to explain the awesomeness that is to come in 2014. Final Fantasy XV is officially announced and below is the first trailer:
