The team over at Unknown Worlds have released a nice video showing off the next map to hit the beta. The new map is called Docking, and it looks very interesting. Docking utilizes an art set that has not yet been seen in NS2 maps, giving it a distinctive style compared to the other industrial looking maps.

Ridley Scott’s Prometheus film came out today. Everyone make sure you go see it.
Highlights include… well nothing really. Maybe Lego City Undercover? Otherwise it was just tacked on touch screen controls in games like Batman Arkham City & ZombiU, a demo reel for upcoming games including software already out on other platforms such as Mass Effect 3 and Ninja Gaiden, and more boring Nintendo novelties like Wii Fit 2. Its basically more of the same non-core stuff that made me not care at all about the Wii in the first place. Only the hardware is now good enough to run current generation console games and has a touch screen on the controller so you can play Scribblenauts.
Of course there were also new Mario and Pikmin games. I guess that’s a positive if you are not sick to death of side scrolling Mario games after nearly 30 years. No Zelda or Metroid games.
So Nintendo has finally caught up with 8 year old hardware just in time to get stomped out again next year when new consoles come out. The sad thing is I have no doubt this will work out well for them. I expect strong sales.
Highlights include The Last of Us, God of War, some mobile stuff I don’t care about, and a so-bad-its-funny Wonderbook presentation.
Highlights include Halo 4, Splinter Cell, Tomb Raider, and some pretty awesome multi-device integration with Xbox SmartGlass. Also, if you are like me and looking to cut the cable on your TV service, Xbox 360 has a ton more video content providers coming up. Plus a bunch of Kinect stuff that is pretty lame. Oh, and Usher shows up at one point. I think he was in the wrong building or something.
