Predicting the Future Console DRMs

What a crazy month in gaming! Not only has Sony stated that they will retain with their current DRM strategy, but Microsoft's required internet connection DRM is now gone. Both the PlayStation 4 (PS4) and Xbox One (XBO) are going to have similar disc DRMs. But how are their digital download DRMs going to play out? Let's look at their current systems and policies and try to predict what their new generation systems are going to do.

E3 2013: Conference Impressions

E3 2013 kicked off yesterday with some press conferences from some key publishers: Microsoft, EA, Ubisoft, and Sony. But the important ones were the console manufacturers. Here are my impressions of their conferences. These are just my opinions based on the type of games I prefer.

It's that time of year where I like to breakdown what I think a great budget gaming PC will cost you. I've gone and done up some estimates on how much a casual, budget gamer, and rich gamer would spend and choose for their components.

PlayStation 4: Initial Thoughts

Sony had their PlayStation Event last night. Sony had live streams going; CNET and many others were doing the same. Hell, even Sony had some live (all be it horrible) live streaming on PlayStation Home. This was going to be a pretty big event.
