Review of the Week

After what seems to have been a very busy week for me, here's what's been happening this week:

Next Gen News - PS4 VS Xbox One

This week, it was confirmed by Microsoft that the Xbox One will be out a week before the PS4 in November. What this means is that it will be a fight to see which one will be bought the most over the holiday season. But of course, the Wii U is there as well. Either way, if you like what you see then go and get them, but for me, its PS4 and Wii U all the way. Speaking of which.

Nintendo News - Indie Awareness

Since the launch of Nintendo's eShop, Nintendo have become a much easier company to work with when it comes to Indie games. That being said, they have made it a priority that they should make the awareness level of Indie developers, rise so that people can enjoy a lot of great Indie games while also enjoying the many games that Nintendo have in store over the coming months. Also Pokemon X and Y are looking good and the 2DS looks horrible.

In a wrap up of this week's other news, LEGO becomes the second best toy maker in the world (beating Hasbro), All of the Russell T Davis era of Doctor Who goes HD with the release of the complete series 1-7 boxset (out in November) and UbiSoft have both AC4 and Watch Dogs looking pretty good in new developer walkthrough videos.
