    It is a port of the PS3 game, it has not been confirmed though that it will be the free game, but the the rumour comes from a site who have got the last two months right, as for the game, it is not great and had a lot of bugs.

    It's really really fun in 2 player coop mode, I'd be surprised if it was the march game, would be totally out of the blue!

    Bit of a strange one. When i play a blue ray movie the sound is out of sync to the action. Is this a PS problem or a TV problem? I've never noticed any problems with games.
    I should mention i'm using a surround sound system, might this have something to do with it?

    I'm still getting it on Friday. I love the series and from the big list of custom difficulty options you can make it just as hard if not harder than the earlier games. Especially with Ironman mode. Just hope they take more care next time with level planning and make it so there are always multiple routes and options to get things done.

    Yes. You can access other apps through other PS accounts for other countries. Most have geographic restrictions though

    More like 10 to 12 days delivery. But if you're in no hurry, you can get some great deals on that site.

    I have got a few items in 7 days, none have been longer than 10, except around Christmas, they get nearly all my trade now.

    As mentioned online co-op is good fun but playing it on your own it probably won't hold your interest long.

    No they mark stuff down at a low value item.

    Also this was on the PlayStation Blog: Dead Nation™: Apocalypse Edition PS4

    I played BF3 for a while on Caspian Border then switched to the PS4 version. Makes you really appreciate the leap in power.

    Nope, have got over 30 things from them and not one bit of hassle from customs, like CombatCow said they put a lower price on the package and usually say it is just dvds.

    Cool, and would i be right in saying if one was to have a US psn account that you would be able to avail of the cheaper dlc for a disc that you buy from VGA?

    The PS4 version will be called Awesomenauts Assemble! Yes, with the exclamation point and everything.



    Awesomenauts Assemble! will be available for $10/€10.

    Another new The Order 1886 video and more information.


    Gunplay will obviously form a key component of The Order 1886′s gameplay, but close-combat melee encounters are every bit as integral to the experience. Developer Ready At Dawn is taking a fresh approach here, incorporating split second decision paths allowing fights to play out in a number of different ways. In the clip above Galahad goes for a knife, but it’s not the only way to tackle the situation…

    “For melee, we’re leveraging some of the things we’ve learned in the past, even from the platformer days. We want to supplement ranged combat with something that players don’t expect. You’ll see more melee modes that will give you some complex options,” hints Creative Director Ru Weerasuriya.

    While the weaponry at your disposal in The Order 1886 might seem out-of-this-world, every single design in the game is based on bona fide Victorian technology.

    “The more you get to see of the weapons, you’ll realise that they’re actually not that outlandish or futuristic. They feel grounded,” Ru says. “We don’t twist the actual technology itself – what we twist is its use.”

    At its core The Order: 1886 is a third person action game, complete with cover shooting mechanics. While you might think you’ve seen these before, Ready At Dawn is putting its own twist on convention.

    “Yes, there is cover as you might have seen in other games, but we’ve added traversal modes,” says Ru. “You’ll go seamlessly from ‘full cover’ into ‘soft cover’ as you move away from an object. Imagine you’re in cover, you’re shooting at something and you want to pop out. You don’t just stick your head up, right? You’d still stay low. So we’ve tried to build a bit more reality into the cover system.”

    Expect combat to be brutal…

    Alongside an arsenal of weaponry that offers a huge array of combat options, you’ll also have a number of gadgets at your disposal. Here, Galahad is surveying Victorian London with a monocular in search of a fire fight.

    “The Monocular was built for multipurpose use,” explains Ru. “We haven’t talked about all the different modes of gameplay in which it will be implemented, but what we showed in the latest demo is it being used as a looking glass, and to send Morse code. You can flash a signal to the airship to give your location.

    “We have a lot of other devices like this that we’re trying to implement. Of course, there are always more ideas than we can fit into the game, so it’s a question of which ones will stick…”

    As mentioned above, one sequence sees you using the DualShock 4′s touch pad to tap out a Morse code message to a nearby airship. Will there be other creative uses of the new controller?

    “We’ve worked with the controller to test all the different things we could do with it,” says Ru. “The issue is that the more complex and involved controller inputs get, the more it removes you from the immersive core experience. We don’t want to use it too much; we’re only using it for actions that feel natural. Tapping out Morse code just worked so well.”

    As hinted at in the trailer released earlier this month, Ready At Dawn is creating a truly ‘filmic’ experience, both in terms of how the game looks and the story it tells. The game’s four primary protagonists are nuanced individuals, with different roles to play in the twisting, layered narrative.

    “The four characters have very different story lines – their past, how long they’ve been around, what they’ve done, who they’ve fought,” Ru explains.

    “Mallory is the squad leader in many ways; Galahad is someone who’s been involved in the conflict for a long time; Igraine – she’s younger but still confident’ and Lafayette is the rookie of the squad. He’s the one who jokes around. He’s a little jovial, happy-go-lucky, doesn’t worry about too much. It’s a nice balance between the four characters.”

    Ready At Dawn’s “neo-Victorian” vision of the British capital offers a universe unlike anything you’ve experience in a videogame. Dark, dank, dirty and dripping with atmosphere, it’s a refreshingly different setting, and one that boasts huge potential for both edge-of-your-seat suspense and widescreen action set-pieces.
