The Additional content for PS3 Skyrim Hearthfire incorporates something different to missions and adventures as new content, as did the DLC Dragonborn. This time Bethesda offers a new experience of life for our character in the Province of Skyrim, literally.

While all the people that played this title were aware that in major cities like Whiterun (Carrera White) or Solitude (Soledad) we could buy houses after winning the appreciation of the Jarl, in smaller cities like Morthal not an option . This changes with the DLC Hearthfire and dramatically. Now we can build our own house, and not only that, but take it to a level beyond allowing even adopt children and live with the wife (or husband) of our characters. Wherefore he called Hearthfire as "DLC for Skyrim The Sims".

Crytek: "The new consoles can not be compared to the high-end PC"

If there is a study that gets to move the masses with his statements, is Crytek. They recently caught claiming that the first games of the next generation would be compare to Crysis 3, now they argue that the alleged PlayStation 4 and Xbox 720 will not compete in power with the current high-end PC.

Cevat Yerli, one of the main authors of the study, has been adamant with Eurogamer British media, noting that despite being under a confidentiality agreement, he is not very satisfied with the final specifications of the successors to Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Why? Simply because he ensures that these new consoles will not be able equated with a high-end PC, and as a reason puts on the table the issue of price. Clarifies that a closed system as a gaming platform that adapts to consumers, both in specifications and price, you will never be able to compete against each other in power with a high-end PC is focused on other users and a different orientation in their prices.

Obviously if a high-end PC worth 2000 euros, it is unthinkable that a $ 500 console can compete in features and, therefore, in specifications. Well, we all know that a console, with far less power than a PC game can move similarly regarding compatible, basically because it consumes resources much lower compared to that required in performance PC.

If these statements and Crytek is making us see that we will not wait for anything special in terms of power with the new consoles from Sony and Microsoft, there will be many disappointments. These statements contradict those made a few days ago by Epic Games, they assured that there would be a visual leap.

The first major company to move a card will be Sony this coming Wednesday, with the introduction of its new PlayStation 4 in style. Since that day we'll see if Crytek's words are meaningless.

Marvel Comics continues its MMO Marvel Heroes

Marvel Comics has long since been preparing their own MMO called in the beginnig Marvel Universe Online and is now known as Marvel Heroes. The project was being canceled because of disagreements between the original developers Cryptic Studios and publisher, but now has new vigor.

The game is being developed by Gazillion Entertainment and will come in the form Free to Play where micro-transactions will be available but subscribers will not have to pay anything to access the content, which is excellent news.

The MMO will have the peculiarity that users can unlock characters from a long list of super heroes of the house of ideas and play with them, unlike its counterpart DC Universe Online, where you create an original character you can choose to a hero or villain as his mentor. Presumably there will also be creating original characters but no information was given about it until now.

Brian Michael Bendis (House of M, Secret Invasion, Dark Avengers, Ultimate X-Men)-one of the most prolific writers of today, has been responsible for shaping the new world mythology of which revolve around a plan from the villain Doctor Doom will take place in "iconic locations and scenes drawn from classic Marvel comics history."

Regarding the technical details, Marvel Heroes will use Unreal Engine 3 from Epic Games although we have no release date.

Gazillion Entertainment and Marvel developed a game called Marvel Super Hero Squad Online with characters "chibi" or Super Deformed and is aimed at younger audiences.

Below the images of the characters have been revealed so far:

The development of the RPG Game of Thrones began long before the TV series

George R.R. Martin has had immense care about Game of Thrones and the universe of "A Song of Ice and Fire", his popular series of books, and to whom gives the license to market his creation or take it to other media. this is one reason why the TV series produced by HBO is now an amazing worldwide phenomenon that has infiltrated the geek culture and beyond, while being transmitted by a pay channel.

It is therefore not surprising that the RPG game Cyanide Studios is preparing to have the same care, is that the study takes 7 years preparing the title in a time when the television series was "but a rumor." Martin has been closely linked to the project ensuring that the play reflects his view of that world of intrigue, murder and drama where we are constantly recommended that we prepare, as winter approaches.

Because it takes so much time in planning, it is possible to see the characters do not reflect 100% of the features we see on television incarnations, but the developers assure us that its essence lies in the creations of Martin, but also have surprises between the development of their adventures and missions as they wanted to include some elements that might surprise the players, despite having read the books.

Some previews have shown that the graphics could be considered as nothing out of this world and apparently the game has a few hours of play, but still have to see if this release has the quality that books and television series has accustomed us . Hope so.

Game of Thrones will be available for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC beginning this May 15 in North America and in the first week of June for Europe.

Avengers: Battle for Earth will be released for Wii U and Kinect

Marvel Comics teams up with Ubisoft to launch the title The Avengers: Battle for Earth, which will be available for U Wii and Xbox 360 Kinect from this fall, although no exact date.

 

The game will unfold around the comics event "Secret Invasion" that took place in 2008 and where green aliens able to change shape called Skrulls, have been gradually replacing many of the super heroes of the Marvel Universe by their own agents to invade earth.

During the story we will see more than 20 characters but so far there are only four confirmed as available for use: Iron Man, Thor, Captain America and Hulk.
Tony Key, vice president of sales and marketing at Ubisoft Quebec says:
 
"Fans of the Marvel universe and superhero games will love the extensive combination of characters, controlled movements with the body and competitive gameplay."

Secret Invasion is a crossover whose story line has nothing to do with the recent film The Avengers, but surely the success it is having on theaters will serve as a good springboard to get better sales.

And another thing that strikes me curious ... what capabilities the Wii U will truly have  if a game can be adapted to both the new Nintendo console and the Kinect? At least clear that they are two completely different forms of gameplay, but if so, why not release it to the PS3 too? We have to wait and see...
