								<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>PS Plus gets renews with half a dozen new free titles games will get to enjoy throughout Sony&#8217;s console ecosystem during December 2015. <span id="more-12066"></span>Meet the games right here!</p>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/PlayStation-Plus-December-2015-e1449156094835.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12067" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/PlayStation-Plus-December-2015-e1449156094835.jpg" alt="PlayStation Plus December 2015" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>PS Plus, just like every month, gives gamers access to six free games that players get to enjoy throughout the PlayStation family of consoles, with games for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita. Starting this week and up until the first tuesday of January, these games will be available for any gamer with an active PS+ subscription to download, and it includes several games spanning different genres and studios. Here&#8217;s the full list so you see what you will be able to play this month. Let it be noted, though, you are going to need an active <a id="amznPsBmLink_929120" class="amzn_ps_bm_tl" href="http://www.amazon.com/1-Year-PlayStation-Plus-Membership-Digital/dp/B004RMK5QG/ref=as_li_bk_tl/?tag=fedexbox-20&amp;linkId=17ccc1a377152d6c3eaa6b27d438d22e&amp;linkCode=ktl" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" data-amzn-ps-bm-keyword="PlayStation Plus subscription" data-amzn-link-id="17ccc1a377152d6c3eaa6b27d438d22e">PlayStation Plus subscription</a><img id="amznPsBmPixel_929120" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important; padding: 0px !important; height: 0px !important; width: 0px !important;" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?source=bk&amp;t=fedexbox-20&amp;bm-id=default&amp;l=ktl&amp;linkId=17ccc1a377152d6c3eaa6b27d438d22e&amp;_cb=1449156493913" alt="" width="0" height="0" border="0" /> to claim these free games, so you might want to purchase one if you don&#8217;t have it.</p>
<p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/C5eIiJcaEjg" width="853" height="480" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<h2 class="fluid-width-video-wrapper">Gauntlet: Slayer Edition (PS4)</h2>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/PlayStation-Plus-December-2015-Gauntlet-e1449156300279.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12068" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/PlayStation-Plus-December-2015-Gauntlet-e1449156300279.jpg" alt="PlayStation Plus December 2015 Gauntlet" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>This is an isometric action RPG not unlike Diablo, with several classes and characters. It&#8217;s perfect for couch co-op sessions or multiplayer.</p>
<h3>King’s Quest Chapter 1: A Knight to Remember (PS4)</h3>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/PlayStation-Plus-December-2015-Kings-Quest-e1449156356893.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12069" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/PlayStation-Plus-December-2015-Kings-Quest-e1449156356893.jpg" alt="PlayStation Plus December 2015 King's Quest" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>This one hits straight in the nostalgia glands: after years of silence, the King&#8217;s Quest series is back. This is only the first chapter out of 5 planned, but will give you a general idea of what this series is all about. If you enjoyed the classic games, or wanna try the series for the first time, this is a great entry point.</p>
<h3>Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (PS3)</h3>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/PlayStation-Plus-December-2015-Far-Cry-3-Blood-Dragon-e1449156434452.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12070" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/PlayStation-Plus-December-2015-Far-Cry-3-Blood-Dragon-e1449156434452.jpg" alt="PlayStation Plus December 2015 Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>80s, neon, and classic rock! What started as a joke became a full-fledged games, and one of the best entries in the Far Cry series, at that. Shoot your way out of every situation in the best parody of 80s movies around.</p>
<h3>SSX (PS3)</h3>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/PlayStation-Plus-December-2015-SSX-e1449156575467.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12071" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/PlayStation-Plus-December-2015-SSX-e1449156575467.jpg" alt="PlayStation Plus December 2015 SSX" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Considering the latest Tony Hawk game wasn&#8217;t that good, the best &#8220;slide on a board&#8221; game around is still SSX, a fantastic snowboarding game. This title was special for being inspired in real tracks, all mapped using NASA satellites.</p>
<h3>Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken (PS3, PS Vita)</h3>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/PlayStation-Plus-December-2015-Rocketbirds-e1449156660323.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12072" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/PlayStation-Plus-December-2015-Rocketbirds-e1449156660323.jpg" alt="PlayStation Plus December 2015 Rocketbirds" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>This is an indie platforming and shooting game starred by armed chickens, with a really cool story. The game has a single player and co-op campaign, besides stereoscopic 3D support.</p>
<h3>Freedom Wars (PS Vita)</h3>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/PlayStation-Plus-December-2015-Freedom-Wars-e1449156715845.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12073" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/PlayStation-Plus-December-2015-Freedom-Wars-e1449156715845.jpg" alt="PlayStation Plus December 2015 Freedom Wars" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Freedom Wars is our favorite title on the PS Vita. The game takes place in a post-apocalyptic future where all society lives in &#8220;panopticons&#8221; (basically, prisons), as just using up resources is a crime. After creating a character, players can take on missions to reduce their sentence and become a normal citizen &#8211; all with Monster Hunter or Soul Sacrifice like gameplay.</p>
<p>All of these free titles are pretty amazing and interesting, so this is a fantastic month for PlayStation Plus users throughout the globe. Our favorites, though, are definitely Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon and Freedom Wars, so don&#8217;t miss out on those!</p>

								<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Konami has decided to patch back in one of the most popular characters in Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. This is how to do it.<br />
<span id="more-12060"></span></p>
<h2>Attention! Spoilers follow! Do not keep reading if you have not beaten Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.</h2>
<p>Quiet, one of the most talked about characters in Hideo Kojima and Konami&#8217;s latest game <a id="amznPsBmLink_9905944" class="amzn_ps_bm_tl" href="http://www.amazon.com/Metal-Gear-Solid-Phantom-Pain-PlayStation/dp/B00JKM06HG/ref=as_li_bk_tl/?tag=fedeps-20&amp;linkId=72a60d5141fc731165791b51b330f2da&amp;linkCode=ktl" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" data-amzn-ps-bm-keyword="metal gear solid v the phantom pain" data-amzn-link-id="72a60d5141fc731165791b51b330f2da" data-abc="true">Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain</a><img id="amznPsBmPixel_9905944" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important; padding: 0px !important; height: 0px !important; width: 0px !important;" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?source=bk&amp;t=fedeps-20&amp;bm-id=default&amp;l=ktl&amp;linkId=72a60d5141fc731165791b51b330f2da&amp;_cb=1447446911160" alt="" width="0" height="0" border="0" />, ends up leaving the Mother Base after a few story developments around the point where the game ends. This had upset many fans, as even after playing these last few missions, the game can potentially keep going for hours and hours, so many asked for a way to get her back, or even resorted to modding in the case of PC gamers. Konami has heard our pleas, though, and thanks to the latest patch the game got on the 10th of November, we can officially get her back by legal means. This is the process you need to follow:</p>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/How-To-Get-Quiet-Back-2-e1447447166557.jpg" data-abc="true"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-12063" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/How-To-Get-Quiet-Back-2-1024x576.jpg" alt="How To Get Quiet Back 2" width="630" height="354" /></a></p>
<ul>
<li>Beat Mission 11. [REPLAY] CLOAKED IN SILENCE 6 times <em><strong>in a row</strong></em>, without using lethal methods (IE, exhaust the blue bar, not the red bar).</li>
<li>See the mission change its name to 11. [REUNION] CLOAKED IN SILENCE</li>
<li>Beat the &#8220;new&#8221; mission 11, without killing <em><strong>Quiet</strong></em>.</li>
</ul>
<p>Quiet will rejoin your mother base after this odyssey, with all of her upgrades and bond level intact. Let us state this again, though: the mission has to be beaten 7 times in a row, and the 7 times without killing her &#8211; you can skip the cinematic sequences, though, if you so desire, and belive us, after seven times, you&#8217;ll probably want to no matter how cool it all looks.</p>
<p>In case you were curious, the complete patch notes read as follows, <a href="http://www.konami.jp/mgs5/tpp/certification.php5" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-abc="true">according to the official website</a>:</p>
<ul>
<li>A grade 7 weapon has been introduced along with two new grade 8 weapons.</li>
<li>New security devices have been added to help you protect your FOB.</li>
<li>An “Anti-Reflex Research” function for the Medical Team unit has been added. This enables you to shorten your FOB invader’s Reflex Mode time.</li>
<li>In FOB infiltrations, pressing the action button while prone will enable “Stealth Mode”. This will enable you to disappear from the FOB defender’s predicted field of movement. This will also make the defending Intel team unable to search for your general location.</li>
<li>A new FOB 3 option has been added.</li>
<li>For those who struggle in playing the game, obtaining the Chicken Hat and the Lil Chicken Hat is now easier to obtain. A Rookie Assist Function has also been added to Espionage Ratings in the results of FOB missions, enabling players to prevent loosing Espionage Points upon failing at FOB invasions or defenses.</li>
<li>Several new UI tweaks have been introduced and the In-game notification of events are said to be improved.</li>
<li>Balancing adjustments and bug fixes.</li>
<li>DLC outfits which reportedly doesn’t provide their special effects has now been fixed.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>More Bonuses &amp; FOB Rewards</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>New daily login bonuses have been made available to celebrate the latest MGS5 TPP update. Those who login from November 10 to 17 will get the following rewards for each day:</li>
<li><strong>Nov 10:</strong> MB Coins x30</li>
<li><strong>Nov 11:</strong> Common Metals (Processed) x10,000</li>
<li><strong>Nov 12:</strong> Digitalis (Lutea) x50</li>
<li><strong>Nov 13:</strong> Fuel Resources (Processed) x10,000</li>
<li><strong>Nov 14:</strong> MB Coins x70</li>

								<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As even more great games gear up for release, we look at the seven most incredible games to check out in 2015.</p>
<p><span id="more-12036"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/PS4.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12039" alt="PS4" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/PS4.jpg" width="600" height="337" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/PS4.jpg 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/PS4-300x170.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>The gaming industry is going through an exciting time right now. With the release of the PS4, Sony has made the world&#8217;s most powerful games console and with a massive roster of impressive games, the time for PlayStation fans has truly never been better.</p>
<p>But with this many games on offer, how do you keep track of them all? And more important, how do you figure out which ones are worth your time and your hard earned cash?</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve put together this list of seven games to look forward in 2015 to hopefully make things that much easier.</p>
<p><strong>1. Bloodborne</strong></p>
<p><iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/QEv7ZHytVAk" height="360" width="640" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p>
<p>Set to be a spiritual successor to Dark Souls 1 and 2, Bloodborne puts players in the grim city of Y&#8217;harnam. Like the Souls games, expect Bloodborne to be brutally difficult.</p>
<p>Combat in Bloodborne is fast-paced and with both a gun and a melee weapon it&#8217;ll be up to the player to dodge, dash and dodge some more to avoid the lethal attacks of your enemies. With risk comes rewards though as if you&#8217;re hit by an opponent, a well timed strike back with not only get your health back but it will let you snip a little extra HP off of theirs.</p>
<p>Bloodborne might not be for everybody on account of that blistering difficulty but those who invest in it should find a brilliant game here. It&#8217;s being tipped as one of PS4&#8217;s hottest exclusives and as the above video shows, that&#8217;s with good reason.</p>
<p><strong>2. No Man&#8217;s Sky</strong></p>
<p><iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/nmwG6Sj1Yfg" height="360" width="640" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p>
<p>Coming first to PS4, No Man&#8217;s Sky is simply breath-taking.</p>
<p>That impressive trailer above? This game has been created by a team of just<em> four people</em>.</p>
<p>Even more surprising is the fact that No Man&#8217;s Sky is entirely procedurally generated. Millions of miles of galaxy have all been thought up by the game with the development team just putting in bits of code to get it started. This means that everything from the planets, the creatures, the vegetation and every star you see as you&#8217;re zipping around No Man&#8217;s Sky in your spaceship will all be generated as and when it happens. The only thing that isn&#8217;t procedurally generated are the other players who you&#8217;ll see from time to time.</p>
<p>With this in mind it&#8217;s no wonder that it would take a player five billion years to explore every inch of No Man&#8217;s Sky&#8217;s world. So we probably won&#8217;t get to see every part of it individiually, come next year plenty of us will be lined up and willing to try.</p>
<p><strong style="line-height: 1.714285714; font-size: 1rem;">3. The Division</strong></p>
<p><iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/xJgMl3BahWY" height="360" width="640" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p>
<p>Another game shaping up to look fantastic is Tom Clancy&#8217;s The Division. A new take on the Tom Clancy games before it &#8211; including Rainbow Six and Splinter Cell – The Division puts players in the middle of New York City following a disease that infected everybody and killed plenty off around the holidays. Morbid.</p>
<p>But when I say &#8216;players&#8217; I mean lots and lots and lots of players since this is an MMO and everyone will not only be teaming up (or battling it out) for territory but there will be wars over resources (including guns and other supplies) too. What&#8217;s also key is that these people will be your enemies – not the infected citizens as you&#8217;re actually part of the crack team that&#8217;s meant to protect them.</p>
<p>That multiplayer element mixed in with a stunning, virtual recreation of NYC make The Division one to watch when it comes to PS4 next year.</p>
<p><strong>4. The Order: 1886</strong></p>
<p><iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/2s4t4X8hiac" height="360" width="640" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p>
<p>A PS4 exclusive, The Order: 1886 has some infected of its own except rather than people dying off, they&#8217;ve mutated and have become monstrous enemies instead.</p>
<p>With some infected supernatural beasties to take care of, the only people who can put an end to the havoc they&#8217;re wreaking across 19th century London is a team of immortals. You see, the characters at the heart The Order: 1886 are a group of immortal knights; but that doesn&#8217;t mean they can&#8217;t die.</p>
<p>Demos and trailers of the game have shown some fearsome werewolves who aren&#8217;t to be reckoned with. Should you take your eye off the ball (or in this case, the wolf), it&#8217;ll soon lop off your head or smash it into something hard, sharp or lethal.</p>
<p>The possibilities for this make The Order: 1886&#8217;s gameplay all the more exciting though so keep an eye out for it in February.</p>
<p><strong>5. Dying Light</strong></p>
<p><iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/9IM3YE0BZuo" height="360" width="640" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p>
<p>It could very well be the &#8216;year of the infected&#8217; judging by the last three on this list but unlike The Order: 1886 or The Division, Dying Light features the infected in the traditional sense. <em>Zombies</em>.</p>
<p>While games like Dead Rising have madcap zombie murder, Dying Light seems a little more gritty. They shamble around lackadaisically in daylight hours but at night Dying Light&#8217;s zombies become a versatile threat and you&#8217;ll have to use your free running skills to survive or peg it back to safety.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s apparently a story under all of that zomb head smashing and limb chopping off but I can&#8217;t say it&#8217;ll be a particularly interesting one. Alas, the combat will be more than enough of a draw when it comes to PS4 at the end of January.</p>

<p><span id="more-12026"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Uncharted-Golden-Abyss-Vita-Theme-image-1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12029" alt="Uncharted Golden Abyss Vita Theme image 1" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Uncharted-Golden-Abyss-Vita-Theme-image-1.jpg" width="600" height="340" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Uncharted-Golden-Abyss-Vita-Theme-image-1.jpg 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Uncharted-Golden-Abyss-Vita-Theme-image-1-300x170.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>A little love and attention come to <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2014/10/01/themes-coming-to-ps-vita-with-system-software-update-3-30/">Sony’s handheld this week</a>, as the PlayStation Vita receives a notable firmware upgrade that at long last, much like the PlayStation 3, receives Themes. Now Vita owner can personalize almost every visual facet of their handheld: from the Start and Home screens, system application icons, and even the system’s background music.</p>
<p>The happy arrival of Themes comes well before their excepted inclusion for the PlayStation 4, which was announced at Sony’s Tokyo Game Show media event back in Septmeber and was to be apart of the PS4’s next firmware update. Still no signs of when that might happen, but you’ll most likely know of it when we do.</p>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Uncharted-Golden-Abyss-Vita-Theme-image-2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12030" alt="Uncharted Golden Abyss Vita Theme image 2" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Uncharted-Golden-Abyss-Vita-Theme-image-2.jpg" width="600" height="340" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Uncharted-Golden-Abyss-Vita-Theme-image-2.jpg 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Uncharted-Golden-Abyss-Vita-Theme-image-2-300x170.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>As for the PS Vita, not only will users be able to customize their own look for their portables, but Sony will also offer a number of themes for sale; Unique themes based on popular gaming franchises, such as Uncharted: Golden Abyss (seen above), Tearaway, Freedom Wars, and many more promised to come.</p>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Crystal-Vita-Theme-image-1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12027" alt="Crystal Vita Theme image 1" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Crystal-Vita-Theme-image-1.jpg" width="600" height="340" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Crystal-Vita-Theme-image-1.jpg 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Crystal-Vita-Theme-image-1-300x170.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a><a style="line-height: 1.714285714; font-size: 1rem;" href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Crystal-Vita-Theme-image-2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12028" alt="Crystal Vita Theme image 2" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Crystal-Vita-Theme-image-2.jpg" width="600" height="340" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Crystal-Vita-Theme-image-2.jpg 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Crystal-Vita-Theme-image-2-300x170.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>Other improvements from firmware update 3.30 include the option to view rarity info for Trophies on your Vita, let users add other gamers to Calendar events, even for non-friends on PSN, and send Calendar events via PSN messages or email.

								<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Despite selling millions of units around the world, Sony have no idea why their new console, the PS4, is selling so well.</p>
<p><span id="more-12023"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/PS4-purchase.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12024" alt="Sony PlayStation 4 Midnight Launch Event" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/PS4-purchase.jpg" width="600" height="391" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/PS4-purchase.jpg 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/PS4-purchase-300x195.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>It’s something that they’d certainly like to put behind them but the fact is, Sony didn’t get off to a great start with the PS3. The console was far too overpriced and it also launched an entire year later than its closest competitor, Microsoft’s Xbox 360. With a handful of price cuts and a slew of incredible PlayStation exclusives (LittleBigPlanet and Uncharted, anyone?) the console did eventually scramble to a decent position but nonetheless Sony was keen not to make the same mistakes with the PS4. And thus far, they’ve succeeded. The PS4 is reasonably priced, has a great deal of fantastic games already, the free games of PlayStation Plus make it a venerable, must-have service and it’s selling incredibly well across the globe. But not even Sony could have predicted the PS4’s astonishing success and as they’ve now revealed they have no idea what caused it.</p>
<p>So what could be the real reason behind the PS4’s sales? It certainly didn’t get to 10 million global sales for nothing.</p>
<p>Arguably, the biggest reason is the PS4’s price. Retailing for under $400/£350 in the US and the UK respectively, the console is priced far better than new rival the Xbox One. Sales of Microsoft&#8217;s system have trickled in by comparison, with sales kept low (estimates suggest they’ve sold just 5 million Xbox One units) because of a hefty price tag that came from the Kinect 2.0 camera being a mandatory add-on. Not only that but buying a console gets even more expensive when you factor in the annual multiplayer subscription so as PlayStation Plus comes with far more free games (across PSP, PS Vita, PS3 and PS4) than Xbox Live (free games across the Xbox 360 and Xbox One) the PS4 becomes the  better bargain.</p>
<p>Sony’s PS4 success could also be helped by its global strategy. In the past, the PS3 has struggled against the Xbox 360’s might in North America, in the UK and Europe they were on middle ground and in Japan and other Asian countries, Sony dominated. These time, Sony has dominated in <em>all</em> of these territories due to a strategy that can appease everyone, no matter their culture or residency in the world. For example, deals for PlayStation exclusive content in multi-platform games like Destiny have made PS4 the go to console for the globally popular while attractive pricing everywhere and early launches in countries all over the world (the Xbox One has taken till now to launch in Japan) and other exclusives that appeal to everyone have made it a global winner. An example of how this has worked is in the UK where Sony recently notched up 1 million PS4 sales, beating the time it took for the PS3, PS2 and Xbox 360 to do the same by several weeks.</p>
<p>Finally, you have to look at the games for where the PS4 is fast outpacing the Xbox One. Obviously franchises such as Uncharted have a certain draw but it’s the reveal of games like Bloodborne and inFamous: Second Son that bring experiences to PS4 that aren’t available on any other platform. If Sony continues to bring great games like this to the console, then the sales figures will only increase in due time, so expect us to report on them once they do.</p>

								<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The 3D online social hub will be ending in the company&#8217;s native land in 2015.</p>
<p><span id="more-11981"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/PlayStation-Home-image.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-11982" alt="PlayStation Home image" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/PlayStation-Home-image.jpg" width="600" height="338" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/PlayStation-Home-image.jpg 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/PlayStation-Home-image-300x170.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>The end times are near for the Japanese occupants of PlayStation Home. On the Japanese website for the 3D social network, Sony announced that the online service would be shutting down come March 2015 in Japan. And as it seems, Japan <em>only</em> for the time being.</p>
<p>The announcement, written in Japanese and later <a href="http://kotaku.com/playstation-home-is-ending-its-service-in-japan-today-1625446214" target="_blank">translated by Kotaku</a>, mentioned that PlayStation Home regions in the West would still be running by their respective operators, Sony Computer Entertainment America and Sony Computer Entertainment Europe.</p>
<p>No reasoning for the impending closure of PlayStation Home in Japan was given, but considering the massive “I don’t give a pa-toot” response the public has shown towards the online service and the absence of it on Sony’s current-gen console, the PlayStation 4, it&#8217;s not surprising to see this news.</p>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/PlayStation-Home-image-2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-11983" alt="PlayStation Home image 2" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/PlayStation-Home-image-2.jpg" width="600" height="338" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/PlayStation-Home-image-2.jpg 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/PlayStation-Home-image-2-300x170.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>PlayStation Home was launched back in 2008 as a virtual 3D community hub for PlayStation 3 users. It was even <em>home </em>to big name corporate brands like Nike and Red Bull, where companies would sponsor in-world advertisements and sell avatar-made clothing.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, as far as expectations go, Home probably came no where close to what the company had first imagined. The fact that the person who oversaw its creation, Phil Harrison, isn’t even with SCE anymore, probably speaks volumes about the matter.</p>
<p>Sony has yet to say if whether the same closure plans of PlayStation Home will be made for other territories, but as soon as they do, we will make sure that you know about it.</p>

								<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You missed Sony&#8217;s latest media event? Catch up by finding out the 5 things you need to know from their Japanese directed event on all things PlayStation.</p>
<p><span id="more-12005"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Sony-Japan-Asia-TGS-2014-image.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12017" alt="Sony Japan Asia TGS 2014 image" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Sony-Japan-Asia-TGS-2014-image.png" width="600" height="338" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Sony-Japan-Asia-TGS-2014-image.png 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Sony-Japan-Asia-TGS-2014-image-300x170.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>During the early morning hours of September 1st, Sony Computer Entertainment Japan &amp; Asia kicked off their formal showcase for Tokyo Game Show 2014. From start to finish, the event certainly earned its Japan &amp; Asian branding, with lots of gaming announcements flavored with the popular trends of geek culture in Japan.</p>
<p>Not all was solely directed to our friends living across from the Pacific, of course. There were some neat surprises for the international crowd, which is why I put together this easy helpful countdown of what you need to know from Sony’s pre-TGS press conference.</p>
<h3><strong>1. Yes, The PlayStation Vita Lives, And It Lives For Japan</strong></h3>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Pink-White-PS-Vita-TGS-image.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12009" alt="Pink-White-PS-Vita-TGS-image" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Pink-White-PS-Vita-TGS-image.png" width="600" height="334" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Pink-White-PS-Vita-TGS-image.png 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Pink-White-PS-Vita-TGS-image-300x167.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>A depressing no show at both E3, and more recently, Gamescom, the PlayStation Vita surprisingly had a sizable portion of Monday morning’s presser all to itself.</p>
<p>Coming this November 13 in Japan, in fact, is a Light Pink/White version of the portable that Sony claims is aimed specifically for women. SCEJA is even promoting games squarely at that demographic, too, with popular dating sims for females (or Otome games as they’re culturally called) from Japanese third-party publishers Marvelous Entertainment and Tecmo Koei.</p>
<h3><strong>2. New System Update Bringing Customizable Themes To Both PS4 &amp; PS Vita</strong></h3>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/PlayStation-Vita-Custom-Themes-Freedom-Wars-image.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12012" alt="PlayStation-Vita-Custom-Themes-Freedom-Wars-image" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/PlayStation-Vita-Custom-Themes-Freedom-Wars-image.jpg" width="600" height="340" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/PlayStation-Vita-Custom-Themes-Freedom-Wars-image.jpg 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/PlayStation-Vita-Custom-Themes-Freedom-Wars-image-300x170.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>Along with their focus on the PlayStation Vita (it lasted a good 15 minutes, too!), Sony also debuted a new feature to an upcoming 3.30 system update, customizable themes. The system update is supposedly going to drop in October, and when installed, should let users personalize their wallpaper, icons, and sounds on the system&#8217;s main UI.</p>
<p><iframe width="600" height="338" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/I4Z7UoNcTlk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>In the video shown along with the announcement of customizable themes, Sony provided examples of themes based on popular Japanese video game franchises like <em>Freedom Wars</em> and <em>Danganronpa</em>. Sony also revealed that the customizable themes feature would also be coming to the PlayStation 4 in the upcoming 2.00 system update that is currently in the works.</p>
<h3><strong>3. New PlayStation 4 Games For Japan Announced</strong></h3>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Hot-Shots-Golf-PS4-TGS-2014-announcment.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12013" alt="Hot-Shots-Golf-PS4-TGS-2014-announcment" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Hot-Shots-Golf-PS4-TGS-2014-announcment.png" width="600" height="337" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Hot-Shots-Golf-PS4-TGS-2014-announcment.png 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Hot-Shots-Golf-PS4-TGS-2014-announcment-300x170.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>When it came time for Sony to switch gears over the PlayStation 4, it focused much of its time on titles coming soon to the platform in the west, <em>Destiny, Assassin’s Creed Unity, The Order: 1886</em>, and <em>Bloodborne </em>(which got a Japanese release date of February 5, 2015). But there were some never-before-seen surprises, like the announcement of a <em>Hot Shots</em> game (known in Japan as <em>Everybody&#8217;s Golf</em>) teeing off on the PS4 in 2015.</p>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Resident-Evil-Revelations-2-announcment-image.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12011" alt="Resident-Evil-Revelations-2-announcment-image" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Resident-Evil-Revelations-2-announcment-image.jpg" width="600" height="336" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Resident-Evil-Revelations-2-announcment-image.jpg 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Resident-Evil-Revelations-2-announcment-image-300x168.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>Capcom meanwhile came on stage to reveal <em>Resident Evil Revelations 2</em> for the PlayStation 4 (also coming to on other consoles), arriving in early 2015. The game is a sequel to the Nintendo 3DS title of the same name &#8211; later ported to the PS3 and Xbox 360 &#8211; which starred Chris and Jill from the first <em>Resident Evil</em> game. Apparently, Revelations 2 will be set in new period and location never before seen in the franchise and will star two different characters.</p>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Yakuza-Zero-TGS-2014-announcment.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12008" alt="Yakuza-Zero-TGS-2014-announcment" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Yakuza-Zero-TGS-2014-announcment.jpg" width="600" height="338" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Yakuza-Zero-TGS-2014-announcment.jpg 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Yakuza-Zero-TGS-2014-announcment-300x170.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>Lastly, we come to <em>Yakuza Zero</em> from Sega, another title in the company’s long-running Japanese-mafia centric action game that will apparently be a prequel of sorts. Zero will take place in 1988, before the events of the first Yakuza game, and will be based on the underground crime exploits of Kazuma Kiryu and Goro Majima.</p>
<p>Yakuza Zero will launch in Spring 2015 for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 with cross-play functionality for the PS Vita.</p>
<h3><strong>3. Tons of New Japanese Role-Playing Games Revealed</strong></h3>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Persona-5-image.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12016" alt="Persona-5-image" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Persona-5-image.png" width="600" height="339" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Persona-5-image.png 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Persona-5-image-300x170.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>If there was one thing Sony’s pre-TGS press conference was top heavy with, it was Japanese role-playing games for both the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita. Perhaps one of the greatly anticipated releases from the Japanese developer of the <em>Megami Tensei</em> series, Atlus, is their next RPG, <em>Persona 5</em>. Originally announced last year as a PS3 exclusive, Persona 5 will now have a PS4 release alongside it come next year.</p>
<p><iframe width="600" height="338" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/-Y5U8n4Ie3I" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Ys-Falcom-TGS-2014-PS4-Vita-image.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12014" alt="Ys-Falcom-TGS-2014-PS4-Vita-image" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Ys-Falcom-TGS-2014-PS4-Vita-image.jpg" width="600" height="327" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Ys-Falcom-TGS-2014-PS4-Vita-image.jpg 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Ys-Falcom-TGS-2014-PS4-Vita-image-300x163.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>As for RPGs from niche Japanese studios: Nihon Falcom, famous for their <em>Ys</em> series of RPGs, is creating a new Ys game for the PS4 and PS Vita that&#8217;s also headed for release next year; Nippon Ichi Software is bringing out another title in its cutesy strategy RPG series, <em>Disgaea 5</em>, to the PS4; finally, Marvelous Entertainment is developing a new tactical RPG for the for the PS Vita called <em>Luminous Arch Infinity.</em></p>
<p>To round up the list, Namco Bandai is re-issuing an enhanced version of their action RPG series on the PS Vita, <em>God Eater</em>, awesomely titled <em>God Eater 2: Rage Burst</em>. That along with Senran Kagura&#8217;s <em>Estival Versus,</em> another popular PS Vita action RPG, are both heading to the Sony handheld and the PS4 in 2015.</p>
<h3><strong>5. Square Enix’s Dragon Quest Gets Dynasty Warrior-styled Spin-off</strong></h3>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Dragon-Quest-Heroes-announcment-image.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-12015" alt="Dragon Quest Heroes announcment image" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Dragon-Quest-Heroes-announcment-image.png" width="600" height="339" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Dragon-Quest-Heroes-announcment-image.png 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Dragon-Quest-Heroes-announcment-image-300x170.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>One of the more head-turning, and show-stopping events during the presser was the final announcement, which brought out Yuji Horii, legendary creator of the <em>Dragon Quest</em> series, a fantasy RPG series that has lasted since the NES days, to show off <em>Dragon Quest Heroes</em>.</p>
<p><iframe width="600" height="338" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/KtkuNrzv7WM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Essentially, Dragon Quest Heroes is a tide-and-true Dragon Quest game in sight and sound, but plays like a Dynasty Warrior game. And that&#8217;s because it&#8217;s being co-developed by Omega Force, the driving force behind the <em>Dynasty Warrior</em> series.</p>
<p>The game is expected in 2015 for both the PS4 and PS3, and will even launch with a special edition Metal Slime PS4 console.</p>

								<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Join Sony for their pre-Tokyo Game Show conference on Labor Day, where new games are promised to be revealed.</p>
<p><span id="more-11991"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Sony-Press-Conference-TGS-2014.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-11992" alt="Sony Press Conference TGS 2014" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Sony-Press-Conference-TGS-2014.jpg" width="600" height="300" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Sony-Press-Conference-TGS-2014.jpg 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Sony-Press-Conference-TGS-2014-300x150.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>Tokyo Game Show time has come once again. The annual gathering of the <a href="http://expo.nikkeibp.co.jp/tgs/2014/exhibition/english/" target="_blank">Japanese gaming industry</a> to show off their upcoming goods begins in a few weeks, September 18, but that’s not stopping Sony from getting the jump on the occasion.</p>
<p>On September 1, Sony Computer Entertainment Japan Asia will be <a href="http://www.jp.playstation.com/conference/2014/" target="_blank">hosting a pre-TGS event</a>, live from Japan at 3:00pm. It will be livestreamed across the web, of course, so if you want to tune in, set your clocks to 11:00pm PST (on August 31) or 2:00pm EST.</p>
<p>At last years pre-TGS showing, Sony featured a bunch of cool gaming surprises, like the hardware reveal of a new PlayStation Vita model (PS Vita 2000) and the PlayStation Vita TV, which later was rebranded as the PlayStation TV in the West.</p>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/PlayStation-Vita-2000-colors-image-e1381513265628.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-10942" alt="PlayStation Vita 2000 colors image" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/PlayStation-Vita-2000-colors-image-e1381513265628.jpg" width="600" height="387" /></a></p>
<p>What can we expect this go around? According to Sony Worldwide Studios president Shu Yoshida, the focus for Sony will be <a href="http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/08/14/sony-to-unveil-new-ps4-games-at-tgs-2014-says-boss" target="_blank">on the PlayStation 4</a>, where territorially the console is in dire need of promotion. Sales for the console in Japan have been a complete opposite from its success in North America and Europe.</p>
<p>In light of this, Sony hopes to improve the PS4 user base in its native country by partnering up with Japanese developers. Hopefully we’ll get to see the fruit of this “supposed” partnering September 1 &#8211; as a fan of Japanese games myself, I would be delighted to see this.</p>
<p>Although, even if on that end there’s little to see, Yoshida mentioned that game announcements from Sony’s Gamescom press conference, which were cut due to the amount of content shown there (there was tons!), will likely be shown during their TGS event.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t worry if you happen to miss Sony&#8217;s pre-TGS event ( I mean it is Labor Day weekend, it&#8217;s not like you have to wake up for work, but whateves), we here at PS3 Maven will be covering the presser and will report back on any excellent news.</p>

								<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Catch up with all the games Sony showed at Gamescom14 with our game trailers recap!</p>
<p><span id="more-11961"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Bloodborne-Gamescom-image.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-11962" alt="Bloodborne Gamescom image" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Bloodborne-Gamescom-image.jpg" width="600" height="369" srcset="https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Bloodborne-Gamescom-image.jpg 600w, https://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Bloodborne-Gamescom-image-300x184.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></a></p>
<p>Sony brought <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/gamescom14/" target="_blank">a lot to the table</a> at this year’s Gamescom (which is great for us!). Although, perhaps too much awesome info on upcoming PlayStation games for the average gamer to see &#8211; unless that gamer drank a whole lot of Monster energy drinks &#8211; which is why we’ve collected the latest gaming footage from out of Gamescom14 all in one post.</p>
<p>So please sit back, relax, and enjoy all this beautiful Sony @ Gamescom footage.</p>

<p>Dystopian action role-playing game <em>Freedom Wars</em> is coming to North America for PlayStation Vita owners on October, 28 for the price of $29.99, as announced <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2014/08/19/freedom-wars-launching-october-28th-for-ps-vita/" target="_blank">by the PlayStation Blog</a>.</p>
<p>The SCE Japan Studio produced title has been available in Japan since late June and has been quite the successful first-party title for Sony’s handheld. Freedom Wars grabbed the distinction of having the second highest all-time opening sales for Vita software; Bandai Namco’s <i>God Eater 2 </i>has the most first-week sales on the platform.</p>
<p>So what exactly is Freedom Wars? For starters, it has a crazy <i>Logan’s Run</i>-esque sci-fi story. In the distant far off future, all of humanity lives a government-controlled existence where due to harsh draconian laws, the majority of the population are criminals forced to become soldiers used to wage wars against other penal city-states.</p>
<p><a href="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Freedom-Wars-PS-Vita-image.jpg"><img alt="Freedom Wars PS Vita image" src="http://ps3maven.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Freedom-Wars-PS-Vita-image.jpg" width="600" height="340" /></a></p>
<p>Freedom Wars puts players into the role of a youth serving out a prison sentence of 1,000,000 years just for the “crime of living.” Under law, because of the severe lack of resources afforded by each government in this planet-ruined time, the act of being born is seen as a great offense &#8211; yeah, because that’s totally reasonable.</p>
<p>Story aside (because I don’t think explaining it any further will help make it more comprehensible), players will spend their time in Freedom Wars banding together with other players to defeat monsters and gather that sweet, sweet RPG loot.</p>
<p>Freedom Wars allows for four-player local co-op, which comes via an ad-hoc wireless connection, and online multiplayer modes where up to eight players can team-up or battle competitively against each other. Here’s a video playthrough of Freedom Wars brought to you by the PlayStation Blog, which does a fine job going over the kind of fun to be had in this upcoming PS Vita title.</p>
