Indie highlight; Warframe (PS4)

26/9/2013

At a polar opposite to our first Indie highlight (Montagues Mount) we find Warframe. Created by Canadian developer Digital extremes, made up by experienced heads in the world of game development.
We first mentioned this title back in June when it was first announced to be coming to the PS4 from its PC home.
All I can now say is I am very pleased Sony actively sought this game out. It played like a dream on the PS4 and is by far the best F2P (Free to play) title I tried on the show floor.
The visuals and mechanics show what the system can do and even at this early stage why next gen may be the way to go.

The game is playable in the PS4 over 18 zone and its well worth the wait to take your place as a Space Ninja.

To say I need a nap is a bit of an understatement. The barrage of sights and sounds (and occasional smells) was a deluge of information that now on the train in my way home I can try to sort through.

Firstly the site floor is filled with most of my hotly anticipated games for the coming year, but its a real shame that Destiny only managed to muster up a model to pose with and the E3 trailer.

The Big two in microsoft and Sony take up the majority of the real estate in the centre of the floor. It was refreshing to see the 360 and PS3 still getting a lot of attention hopefully both consoles will have a lively if not totally full future.

The Vita was somewhat on the periphery of the Sony main stand this year, this was obvious with the PS4 just around the corner but I felt it was not being shown to its full potential. Just a little tip if your going to be jumping on a Vita at the show bring some headphones as none are supplied at the show. Normal earplugs work brilliantly and it really will make the experience of games like Batman Origins Blackgate that much better.

The retro scene was really well represented as were the indie titles. I'll be highlighting some of my picks of these and the AAA titles a bit later but for now all that's left for me to do is nap until the train pulls in at tonbridge.

The PS4 will be coming to Eurogamer Expo 2013

News today has confirmed the presence of the PS4 at the London event in September. Making it the first place UK gamers will be able to get hands on with Sony's new Flagship device.
No XboxOne news as yet but I would be very surprised if Microsoft did not bring their tech to show as well.

The news of the show keeps getting better with the confirmation of a number of titles that will be appearing on the show floor. The full list is below (hit the Read more button), but I can not wait to get my hands on Batman Arkham Origins, The Crew and Battlefield 4 to name but a few.
One thing is for sure with an estimated 70,000 due to the event Gaming in the UK is getting stronger.
There will be more news incoming so keep your eyes peeled on the site as well by checking out Eurogamer through the details below.
