Fans have been curious as they watch the development of the zombie survival MMO H1Z1 over at Sony Online Entertainment. The game takes a lot from pre-existing titles in the genre and appears to make improvements. The title, planned as a free-to-play title hasn’t really talked about PlayStation 4 development, until now.
After asking John Smedley, President of Sony Online Entertainment via Twitter if he could at some point announce PlayStation 4 version, he immediately replied with the following tweet: “We’re doing a PS4 version after the PC.” Now that a PlayStation 4 version is confirmed as happening, we can only hope that the PC version get’s into good position with the early access opening up soon. Steam Early Access will allow users to get in on the ground floor of development of H1Z1 as they progress and will run you $19.99. Early access opens up on January 15th with roughly 64,000 kilometers for players to roam around in. More info is available at the Reddit Page where John Smedley posted to their loyal H1Z1 fanbase regarding the announcement. They cautioned fans that this is not a finished product and if that is what they are expecting out of the early access to not purchase it. The goal is to have players help mold it into what they want it to become. Source: attackofthefanboy.com Now You Know.
Bungie is aware of an issue where Xbox One players have to re-download a patch every time they play Destiny. For now, the developer suggests players user a wired connection when patching, attempt to clear their cache, or uninstall and re-install the game in order to solve the problem.
"If this does not resolve the issue, please know that we are investigating," Community Manager David "Deej" Dague said in the latest Bungie Weekly Update. "More information will be provided as it becomes available." Bungie also announced that it released a fix for PlayStation 4 players who noticed their full game kept reverting to Trial mode. Check your console messages for instructions, and if you're having problems, Bungie says it's working on sending messages and resolving the issue. Finally, Bungie said that The Dark Below DLC revealed several issues on different platforms, some of which have already been addressed on Help.Bungie.Net. If you continue to have issues, Bungie recommend you post to its #Help forums. Destiny's The Dark Below expansion was released this week across all platforms. In addition to the new Raid, the expansion raises the game's level cap, adds new multiplayer maps, and introduces new weapons and items. Source: gamespot Now You Know.

Avalanche Studios has yet to provide a meaningful glimpse at how Just Cause 3 will look in action, so these 21 screenshots are welcome. No longer will we need to call upon our deputy art director to speculate for us: this is the real deal. Just Cause 3 releases some time in 2015. The open world game will not boast multiplayer at launch, but at least it won't contain microtransactions.
Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster, which is already available for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita, will be released on PlayStation 4 in spring 2015, Square Enix has announced.
The game will be available early next year on the PlayStation Network as a download and also as a packaged product at physical retailers. Square Enix's announcement today comes after a product page for a PS4 version of Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster appeared and was quickly taken down. In other Final Fantasy news, Square Enix announced during the PlayStation Experience event last weekend that Final Fantasy VII is coming to PS4. The publisher clarified today that this game, which will be available only as a download, will also launch in spring 2015. Source: gamespot.com
Christmas is coming early to consumers who want to upgrade their gaming device to the PlayStation 4. Sony now offers a PS4 bundle with a free digital game as a treat for its loyal fans. Sony offers the PS4 console with a free game. The selection is limited to "Destiny," "NBA 2K15," "Far Cry 4," and "LittleBigPlanet 3" as part of the company's "Four Games, One Pick" promo. Those who purchase the console from a retailer will be given an informational code that they need to enter in the PlayStation website. Gamers can purchase the console from different retailers in the U.S. as it is not offered in other countries. The end date of the promo is still unspecified, but many guess that it will last until Christmas. The bundle costs $400 inclusive of the digital game, thus exchange of the game is not allowed. The promo is similar to Microsoft's offer back in September when Xbox One consoles were sold with a free game for $400. The promo spiked the sales of Xbox One and reports state that it has overtaken the sales of its rival from Sony. PlayStation 4 is one of the most wanted gaming devices and a lot of new game titles are being built maximizing every feature of the console. Meanwhile, PlayStation marked its 20th year by releasing a limited edition retro-style PS4 that was sold out in minutes after its release. The device sports the original gray color of the first PlayStation console complete with the original logo. The limited edition of the console comes with DualShock 4, PlayStation Camera, and vertical stand. The nostalgic appearance of the console attracted a lot of gamers. Sony sold the device, which is now out-of-stock, for $499 in Sony's website. Due to the overwhelming demand, the PS4 limited edition appeared in eBay with bidding value as high as $22,500.
