Splinter Cell Blacklist “Co-Op” Trailer

Click image to watch Splinter Cell Blacklist “Co-Op” trailer

Three years ago when Splinter Cell: Conviction released, which was one of the most enjoyable experiences we had playing online co-op with our friends. The mode and missions were limited due to Ubisoft’s focus on making a playable title for the masses to be reintroduced to the series properly. Splinter Cell: Blacklist has been a title we’ve been looking forward to the most, and with this new co-op trailer, we’re more excited than ever.

Sam Fisher reunites with Isaac Briggs, as the two head into the battlefield through 14 different maps and multiple missions tied to the main storyline. We’ll also see four different mission styles for the co-op missions, which you can and a friend will enjoy endless hours of quality gameplay (Kudos to Ubisoft).

You can check after the jump to watch the new trailer and get a sense of what stealth missions you’ll be doing later this summer when it hits shelves on August 20th.

10 Things We Want To See From The Next Xbox

xmain

The next Xbox reveal is in less than 24 hours, and Microsoft is ready to let the world in on their little secret (the big mystery Xbox we still have no name for). This has been the longest, most enjoyable (due to online gaming) and most annoying console generation, due to the technology being nearly a decade old and developers having trouble figuring out how to push the limits of the PS3.

The PC audience is already playing beyond levels capable in the current console world and maybe the next consoles as well (see Battlefield 3 and The Witcher). While the Xbox 360’s lifespan is finally coming to an end, we’ve compiled a list of things we’d like to see improved on the next console in comparison to some things we suffered this go-around.

Beforehand, we’re not going to talk about custom modded games or mods PC audience, because it’s not properly used on consoles —with the exception of Halo Forge. Both Microsoft and Sony limit the freedom you have on their systems, which is what makes PC gaming standout, in comparison to being stuck in a box, literally. From the RROD to online servers going down with the biggest launch days we’ve seen in gaming history, we’re just venting here about what we don’t want to see for the “next-gen.”

Let us know if you agree with us or use the comments to tell us what you want to see yourself. This list is strictly done from personal experiences and encounters we’ve had with Xbox 360 since 2005; so we expect you to have a few of your own as well.

PlayStation 4 “See It First” E3 Teaser

Click image to watch PlayStation 4 “See It First” E3 Teaser.

With Microsoft set to unveil their official next console tomorrow morning at their event A New Generation Revealed,” Sony is just reassuring the PlayStation faithful they can look forward to seeing the official PlayStation 4 console at e3. We’re curious why the console wasn’t revealed at their PlayStation Meeting 2013 and only the controller.

Nintendo recently announced they would not be holding a full conference at e3 but would still have a booth at the event and hold smaller events throughout the year. The Wii-U’s been extremely underwhelming in performance, sales and reception from the Nintendo faithful. In comparison to the past, Sony will be holding their e3 event in a prime-time slot 9pm ET / 6pm PT to reveal their PlayStation 4 console.

You can check after the jump to watch the first teaser.

Usher, yes your read that right Usher, is the latest to jump on Rocko’s “U.O.E.N.O.” instrumental. This is actually the best sounding one of all the remixes that had dropped, as Usher mixes in some dope singing over the smooth beat.
