I Can Get Behind This Xbox One Game’s Use of the Cloud
It’s easy to be skeptical that Xbox One developer’s claims that their games will benefit from cloud computing. But, today, I talked to one and I like what he had to say. This was an impromptu chat. I was at Spike TV’s all-day All-Access E3 venue, sitting in the green room and waiting for my…

Disney Wants To Win Every E3 Award Category — With One Game
Disney Infinity might be another toy-based game tugging at the wallets of incorrigible children, but it’s one with a hell of a lot of spunk. I hereby award it Kotaku‘s Most Ambitious Trailer of E3 2013 Award, which I just made up.

Assassin’s Creed IV Sure Looks Impressive. But I’m Still Wary.
At this point, there may be no hands-off preview I’m less willing to trust than an Assassin’s Creed demo. Last year, Assassin’s Creed III just looked so good, so full of potential… and the final product was a mess. So when I went and watched a big chunk of Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag in…

Comparing A Game That’s Coming Out On Both Xbox One/PS4 And 360/PS3
I couldn’t care how fancy the lighting is on a driving game or shooter on the next-gen systems, but one thing I have been looking forward to seeing is how my favourite sports games look on the Xbox One and PS4. Here’s FIFA 14, and at least in terms of appearance, it’s everything I wanted.…

Reminder: Sony’s E3 Conference Is Coming Up Soon
Both Microsoft and EA have had big showings so far, but there’s one more event to come. Sony’s taking to the stage at 6pm PDT to talk PlayStation 4. Will they, like Microsoft, name a price? Maybe, maybe not. What’s for sure is that there’ll be PS4 games on show. Some PS3 games, too. And,…

Ubisoft’s Next-Gen Racing Game Is Always Online. They Explain Why.
Ubisoft’s just-announced The Crew is an ambitious, impressive-looking game. A Need for Speed-like street racing game with a ton of singleplayer and multiplayer options, set on a ridiculously massive map that spans from Los Angeles to New York City. But if you want to play it, you’re going to need an internet connection. Yesterday at…

Battlefield 4’s Singleplayer Footage Looks Bananas
Like it or not, EA’s Battlefield series is once again trying to take a bite out of Call of Duty with a singleplayer campaign. Whether it gets any more enjoyable, we won’t know until we play it. But they at least seem to be going overboard on the spectacle, as we see here with a…sinking…

First Xbox One Consoles Come With Fancy Controllers, Achievement
To let those who get the very first Xbox One consoles feel just that little bit more special, Microsoft will be including specially-branded controllers for those who reserve a “Day One” edition of the console. Available at “select retailers”, the controller includes a small graphic saying “DAY ONE 2013” in the centre of the pad.…

The Division‘s Dirty Money Reminds You to Use Plastic Next Time
Ubisoft just showed off The Division, in which future America is decimated by a plague transmitted through the currency—transmitted on Black Friday, no less. At the end of the presentation, Ubisoft rained down this pseudo-infected moolah on attendees. That sounds awful. The worst an E3 goer must deal with is extreme B.O. and swamp ass…

Check Out The Newest Trailers for Assassin’s Creed IV Right Here
Forget that pretty Errol Flynn stuff. The vision of pirate life that Ubisoft’s selling with Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag is a rowdy, ruthless roundeau of bloodletting. But it also looks like it’ll be lonely and pensive at moments, too.

Here’s How Ubisoft’s Massive Next-Gen Racing Game The Crew Works
Yesterday, I got to spend some time playing The Crew, Ubisoft’s ambitious next-gen, open world racing game. It looks, at first blush, like any other street-racing game from the last few years. And then you see the map. The humongous, size-of-America map. In this demo video, the game’s developers give a tour of The Crew‘s…

Ubisoft Has A Next-Gen, Open-World RPG (And It Looks Like New IP)
Ubisoft’s Massive Entertainment are working on a next-gen, online, open-world RPG called The Division. Set in a realistic, albeit bleak take on the near future, it’s a world in which our complex society and systems have broken down. The trailer, perhaps intentionally, looks a lot like that used last year to reveal Watch Dogs. Gameplay…
