<p>The game was well received by critics and fans alike and rated favorably by all. Definitely one FPS title you should play.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With the PS3 as the platform, we have seen a multitude of open world games which have never failed to amaze us. The open world games are the most played and longest running games among all genres because of the availability of various time killing methods fostered by the open world setting.</p>
<p>Compiled here today is a selection of six PS3 open world games that you should most definitely play. Without further chit-chat, let&#8217;s dwell on them below.</p>
<p><strong><br />
</strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4"><strong>1. Skyrim</strong></div></p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/the_elder_scrolls_v_skyrim-wide.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-16547" alt="the_elder_scrolls_v_skyrim-wide" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/the_elder_scrolls_v_skyrim-wide.jpg" width="600" height="375" /></a></p>
<p>Developed by Bethesda, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is a role playing action open world game that was released on November 11, 2011. The game is the fifth installment in The Elder Scrolls series of games.</p>
<p>The story line of Skyrim revolves around the player who is tasked with defeating Alduin, a dragon prophesied to destroy the world. The setting of the game is 200 years after the previous installment in the series, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. The tradition of the previous games in the series is continued by Skyrim, as the game allows the player to postpone the main storyline indefinitely by travelling to any part of the world at any given time.</p>
<p>The game met with critical and commercial success, shipping over 7 million copies in the first week of release. The game and the series in general attained mass popularity by imbibing the non-linear gameplay tradition. One of the most successful open world games to grace the PS3 and definitely one to play on the PS3.</p>
<div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4"><strong>2. GTA IV</strong></div>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Gta_iv_niko_bellic_sf4_style_by_ersel54-d2yf5y6.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-16369" alt="Gta_iv_niko_bellic_sf4_style_by_ersel54-d2yf5y6" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Gta_iv_niko_bellic_sf4_style_by_ersel54-d2yf5y6.png" width="600" height="415" /></a></p>
<p>Arguably the best open world game of this generation and a fodder for many a debates, Grand Theft Auto IV is an open world action adventure game developed by Rockstar. The game was released for PlayStation 3 on 29 April, 2008.</p>
<p>The game is set in the fictional Liberty City, which bases itself heavily on New York City. The game follows the adventures of Nico Bellic, who is in search for the &#8216;American Dream&#8217; but gets himself into a world of crime. GTA IV features open world gameplay and derives its elements from driving games and third person shooters. The game attracted mass appeal due to the overwhelming popularity of the previous games in the series. GTA IV broke industry records with sales of around 3.6 million units on its first day of release and grossing more than $500 million in revenue in the first week.</p>
<p>Be it story-wise or gameplay-wise, GTA IV is a gem of a game, one to be reckoned with. Definitely one to try on the PS3.</p>
<div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4"><strong>3. Saints Row: The Third</strong></div>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/SAINTSROW4DS.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-10229" alt="SAINTSROW4DS" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/SAINTSROW4DS.jpg" width="623" height="365" /></a></p>
<p>Saints Row: The Third is an action adventure open world video game published by THQ and developed by Volition, Inc. It is the third title in the Saints Row series, a sequel to the 2008 Saints Row 2.</p>
<p>The third installment in the Saints Row series retains the trademark gameplay aspect of open world and urban warfare. The player controls the character of the leader of the Third Street Saints as they battle it out with three gangs in the fictional city of Steelport. The element of insanity finds prominence in the game as the over the top humor elements are scattered abundantly.</p>
<p>The game was mostly well received by critics and fans who praised it&#8217;s intriguing gameplay and quirky humor. The game shipped over 4 million copies till date. Don&#8217;t give this one a miss.</p>
<div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4"><strong>4. Sleeping Dogs</strong></div>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/sleeping-dogs.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-6065" alt="sleeping-dogs" src="/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/sleeping-dogs.jpg" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>

The storyline missions in the game are essential to progress through the game, but as in other open world games, players can complete them at their leisure. The open world is properly utilized in the game as the player can participate in fights, races and also possibly have girlfriends.</p>
<p>With a great story and amazing open world gameplay elements, not one to give the miss on the PS3. The game takes place in a modern day world.</p>
<div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4"><strong>5. inFamous 2</strong></div>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/infamous-cole-640x360.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5845" alt="infamous-cole-640x360" src="/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/infamous-cole-640x360.jpg" width="640" height="360" /></a></p>

The setting of the game is after a few months from the first game in the series wherein clandestine organisations seek to create and employ Conduits for their own personal benefits and view Cole as one of the most powerful, attempting to gain his aid or eliminate him.</p>
<p>The game managed to hold its own sales-wise and was possesses a great story. Its open-world offers gamers a bevy of side quests and other activities making the best PS3 exclusive which features an open-world environment. Definitely one you should play on the PS3.</p>
<div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4"><strong>6. Assassin&#8217;s Creed III</strong></div>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/xl_Assassins-Creed-3-Connor-Hero-6244.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-7035" alt="xl_Assassins-Creed-3-Connor-Hero-624" src="/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/xl_Assassins-Creed-3-Connor-Hero-6244.jpg" width="624" height="351" /></a></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In our columns, we have featured many games that have been acclaimed critically and commercially. The games we have discussed so far are the ones that have been the creamy layer of the gaming industry. But today we put before you something very different.</p>
<p>Our feature today throws light on the console games that have been rated as the worst ever. These are the games that have failed miserably in all aspects, be it commercially or popularity wise. Lets have a look at the games which went terribly wrong.</p>
<div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4"><strong>1. Rogue Warrior</strong></div>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/rogue_warrior_nxebg1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-16019" alt="rogue_warrior_nxebg1" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/rogue_warrior_nxebg1.jpg" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>Developed by Rebellion Developments and published by Bethesda Softworks, Rogue Warrior is a first person shooter video game. The game was released on November 26, 2009.</p>
<p>In the game, the player assumes control of U.S. Navy SEAL Richard &#8220;Demo Dick&#8221; Marcinko. The focus of gameplay is primarily on Marcinko&#8217;s over the top methods and signature execution moves used in war situations. There are over twenty five finishing moves available to player and are termed as &#8216;kill moves&#8217;. When a finishing move is executed, the in-game camera shifts to a third person cinematic angle to show the move.</p>
<p>The game received a huge amount of negative reviews from critics and gamers. In the words of GameSpot,&#8221;This dreadfully boring, expletive-filled, extremely short shooter is an absolute rip-off.&#8221; It was one of the worst games of 2009 because of its poor controls, glitches, foul language, uninteresting gameplay and an overall bad feel and overview. It is ranked as the fourth worst rated video game of all time according to GameRankings. Definitely one to stay away from.</p>
<div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4"><strong>2. The Fight: Lights Out</strong></div>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/997877_20101101_screen001.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-16020" alt="997877_20101101_screen001" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/997877_20101101_screen001.jpg" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>The Fight: Lights Out is a 2010 action fighting video game developed by ColdWood Interactive exclusively for the PS3. The game utilizes the PlayStation move controllers.</p>
<p>The Fight: Lights Out has a predominantly black and white setting with bright red blood. The player takes control of a character to have a one-on-one fight with another character. The PlayStation Move is used in real time to fight. There are a total of twenty three moves available to the player.</p>
<p>The game was not well received. IGN reviewed the game to be  &#8221;a mess that is not only frustrating to play – it is also tiring and boring&#8221;. It had a very short survival span and faded away because of uninteresting gameplay. Give this one a miss.</p>
<div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4"><strong>3. The Punisher: No Mercy</strong></div>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/shot02.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-16021" alt="shot02" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/shot02.jpg" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>Developed by Zen Studios, The Punisher: No Mercy is an arena based first person shooter that was released on July 2, 2009 exclusively to the PSN Store.</p>
<p>There were four arenas available in the game at launch. Also, to convey a sense of realism, the player is only able to carry three weapons. The story mode is playable on different game types and consists of four matches. There is a total of eight playable characters with unique abilities. The game also includes local multiplayer and online play.</p>
<p>The Punisher: No Mercy was criticized for its short length and difficulty of unlocking. In the words of IGN,&#8221;The Punisher: No Mercy is a pretty bad game all around. (&#8230;) There&#8217;s just not really anything to like here, unfortunately.&#8221; Not a good game overall in any way and definitely one to give the miss.</p>
<div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4"><strong>4. Kung-Fu Rider</strong></div>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/kung-fu-rider.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-16022" alt="kung-fu-rider" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/kung-fu-rider.jpg" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>Developed by Japan Studio as a PS3 exclusive, Kung-Fu Rider is a action video game which utilizes the PlayStation Move. It was released on September, 2010.</p>
<p>Players assume the role of either Toby or Karin in the game. Toby is a private investigator and Karin is his secretary. The objective of the game is to navigate through the crowded streets of Hong Kong on a office chair, using the Move controller. Players can cruise through the streets hopping over cars and other obstacles while picking money and other bonuses along the way.</p>
<p>Although the concept was an innovative one, it failed to make an impact. The concept was termed silly by some. The game is considered to be one of the worst exclusive PlayStation 3 games ever. IGN gave it a rating of 3.5/10. Definitely one to make the worst games&#8217; list.</p>
<p><strong><br />
</strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4"><strong>5. Lair</strong></div></p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/929230_20070919_screen001.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-16023" alt="929230_20070919_screen001" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/929230_20070919_screen001.jpg" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>Developed by Factor 5 and published by SCE America, Lair is a single player action video game released in 2007.</p>
<p>The player assumes the role of Rohn Partridge, a dragon-riding knight, who is tasked with various mission-based objectives like eliminating enemies, destroying certain objects etc. The game relies heavily on PS3&#8242;s sixaxis motion controls. Most of the battles in the game are air-based combats with occasional ground combat thrown-in.</p>
<p>When the game was being developed, it managed to capture the attention of gamers because of its stunning graphics. However, upon release, the game was designated as a critical and commercial failure. The game was heavily criticized for its control scheme and managed to grab the #8 spot on GT&#8217;s Top Ten Most Disappointing Games of the Decade. A game not good enough to be playable; one to give the miss.</p>
<p><strong><br />
</strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4"><strong>6. Haze</strong></div></p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/ws_Haze_7_1280x800.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-16024" alt="ws_Haze_(7)_1280x800" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/ws_Haze_7_1280x800.jpg" width="600" height="375" /></a></p>
<p>Developed by Free Radical Design and published by Ubisoft for the PS3, Haze is a first person shooter video game that was released worldwide in 2008.</p>
<p>The game revolves around a drug called Nectar that allows soldiers to fight harder and smarter, but has hallucinogenic side-effects. The drug has control over what the soldiers see as they view a idyllic, painless environment around them. In the game, the soldiers make the use of Nectar to take on enemies, the setting being a dystopian future with war raging on in the background.</p>
<p>The game was criticized for having shallow and stereotypical characters and quirky AI reactions. It also had a majority of glitches and a very short single player campaign. Eurogamer went to the length of calling it &#8221;this year&#8217;s most significant gaming disappointment&#8221;. IGN also criticized the &#8221;horrible plot, weak gameplay mechanics and visuals that are truly underwhelming. Tons of visual issues abound within the game from texture tears and non-descript environments to pop-in and odd animation problems.&#8221;</p>
<p>With so much emphasis laid on the negative aspects, this is definitely one of the worst games to grace the console world.</p>
<p>These are the games that have the dubious distinction of being the worst console games ever. Treat this as a warning and do stay away from these games if you value your time and money. Also, do let us know your views on the list of games that we have compiled for you today. Your feedback, as always, is welcome.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The age of the PS4 is upon us. Just after the official reveal of the PS4 at E3, a bevy of games have been announced that have managed to entice each and all of the PlayStation fans.</p>
<p>Though a sizeable line-up of games are already incoming, we can be almost certain that Sony is holding back some games to bedazzle us during its first year of production.</p>
<p>We attempt here to take a look at some of the most famous franchises that have continued to elude the news and those which we will definitely like to see in the games&#8217; roster for the PS4.</p>
<p>Here are our choices of the games that Sony might have up their sleeve.</p>
<div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4">1. <strong>Uncharted 4</strong></div>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Uncharted-3-2120.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-15647" alt="Uncharted-3-2120" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Uncharted-3-2120.jpg" width="600" height="361" /></a></p>
<p>The Uncharted series is a third person shooter action adventure video game which follows modern day treasure hunter Nathan Drake. The series includes three games-  Uncharted: Drake&#8217;s Fortune, its sequel Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, and second sequel Uncharted 3: Drake&#8217;s Deception. The second title, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves won numerous Game of the Year awards.</p>
<p>With such an excellent track record, it will not be surprising if Sony is keeping the next game in the series in secret for a later reveal.</p>
<div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4"><strong>2. God of War 4</strong></div>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/god_of_war_ascension_ares-wide.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-15648" alt="god_of_war_ascension_ares-wide" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/god_of_war_ascension_ares-wide.jpg" width="600" height="375" /></a></p>
<p>True gamers don&#8217;t need an introduction to the God of War series. It is a best selling action adventure video game loosely based on Greek mythology and a winner of many awards. The series became a flagship title for PlayStation spanning seven games across multiple platforms. The series made the character of Kratos immortal among gamers and achieved a massive fan following.</p>
<p>With the award winning series and the last game, God of War 3 a blockbuster, it is highly improbable that the publishers are not holding back another God of War installment.</p>
<div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4">3. <strong>LittleBigPlanet 3</strong></div>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/littlebigplanet_2_ps3_wallpaper-HD.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-15649" alt="littlebigplanet_2_ps3_wallpaper-HD" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/littlebigplanet_2_ps3_wallpaper-HD.jpg" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>The LittleBigPlanet series of games is a puzzle platformer series of games published by Sony and developed by Media Molecule. The game&#8217;s orientation is primarily towards gameplay, focusing less on the story and follows the adventures of Sackboy. All the games in the series put emphasis on user generated content and go by the tagline &#8221;Play, Create, Share&#8221;. The gameplay consists of the player taking control of Sackboy and navigating him through various levels. Most of the games in the series has players playing solo or co-operatively with friends, navigating various levels collecting &#8220;bubbles&#8221;.</p>
<p>The games in the LittleBigPlanet series generated mass fan following primarily due to the focus on fun gameplay that players can resort to when bored. Definitely one Sony might be holding back.</p>
<div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4">4. <strong>Quantic Dream PS4 exclusive</strong></div>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/the-dark-sorcerer.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-15650" alt="the-dark-sorcerer" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/the-dark-sorcerer.jpg" width="600" height="329" /></a></p>
<p>Quantic Dream is a French video game developer which provides motion capture services to film and video game industries. Their first foray into the gaming sector was with the release of Omikron: The Nomad Soul in 1999 for PC and Dreamcast. The next project was Quark, which was cancelled. In 2002, the development of Fahrenheit started which was the first to use interactive cinema technology. The game went on to be critically acclaimed and won multiple awards. The next titles Quantic Dream announced were Heavy Rain and Omikron 2 in 2005. Heavy Rain was released in 2010 and went on to become a bestseller.</p>
<p>Quantic Dream&#8217;s PS4 aspirations came to light with the showcase of The Dark Sorcerer tech demo during E3 2013. The video that was revealed showed a real time 3D rendering of a human actor&#8217;s face as he went through various emotions. Quantic Dream said that the technology demoed will be further advanced and used in &#8220;future Quantic Dream games&#8221;.</p>
<p>Keeping this announcement in mind and also the fact that Quantic Dream is not one to be in the background while other developer vie for the attention of gamers, we can very safely say that there is definitely a game in the works that we are not aware of.</p>
<div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4">5. <strong>Gran Turismo 5 PS4 version</strong></div>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Gran-Turismo-6-PS3-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-15651" alt="Gran-Turismo-6-PS3-1" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Gran-Turismo-6-PS3-1.jpg" width="600" height="337" /></a></p>
<p>Gran Turismo 6 is a racing sim video game which is currently slated to be released for PlayStation 3 on November 28, 2013 as listed by two separate online retailers, Newegg.com and Multiplayer.com. The Gran Turismo series of games, as you all probably know, are intended to simulate and replicate the appearance and performance of a large number of real world vehicles. The game debuted in 1997 and is at present the highest selling game under the PlayStation banner.</p>
<p>With such an excellent track record, we can almost nullify the fact that the game is not being developed for the PS4. Also as Gran Turismo 6 releases near about the time the PS4 console is scheduled to be released, a PS4 version is most definitely on the cards.</p>
<p>These are our choices of the games that are most likely to be in development for the PS4; the ones that have not been revealed to us as of now. Do let us know what you think. Any feedback is welcome.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>GTA has always been characterized by the variety of accessories in the form of gameplay elements that come with main missions of the game. These include various aspects of the open-world that the player interacts with and various mini-missions and mini-games.</p>
<p>The new addition to the series, the upcoming GTA V, also is replete with such aspects which promise to make the game even more interesting and playable than its predecessors.</p>
<p>Compiled here is a list of 6 lesser known GTA secrets that may have escaped your oversight.</p>
<p><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4">1. You can switch characters on the fly when not in missions</div> </strong></p>
<p>Players will be able to switch from one character to another when not undergoing any mission. However, if they do so, they will find themselves in between car chases or at the beginning of some particular mission exclusive to one of the three characters.</p>
<p><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4">2. You can buy property and invest in real estate</div> </strong></p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/gta-v-property.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-15144" alt="gta-v-property" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/gta-v-property.jpg" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>The fan favourite feature makes a comeback. Players can invest in property and real estate. They can also put their money in stock exchange and invest in other such risky but rewarding ventures.</p>
<p>This will provide a welcome change from the missions when they become monotonous and increase the playing time of the game.</p>
<p><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4">3. Characters have special abilities</div> </strong></p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/GTAV.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-15142" alt="GTAV" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/GTAV.jpg" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>GTA V contains three player controlled protagonists- Michael, Trevor and Franklin, criminals whose stories interconnect as they complete missions. Each of them has a special ability which can be activated. Michael can slow down time during gunfights (a.k.a Max Payne), Franklin can also slow down time, but during driving. Trevor can enter into a violent rage mode where he can take less damage and do more damage to enemies and perform a unique melee attack.</p>
<p>Interesting powers, these. Will be of help during tight situations.</p>
<p><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4">4. You&#8217;ll able to play Tennis and Golf among other things</div> </strong></p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/do-you-know-what-s-awesome-about-gta-v-freedom-960.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-15145" alt="do-you-know-what-s-awesome-about-gta-v-freedom-960" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/do-you-know-what-s-awesome-about-gta-v-freedom-960.jpg" width="600" height="336" /></a></p>
<p>GTA V will feature a host of new mini games along with the return of the series&#8217;s favorite mini games like bowling, pool darts, etc. Tennis and Golf will be introduced in GTA V, contributing to the already big roster of mini-games.</p>
<p>This will result in increase of replayability factor of the game along with enjoyability.</p>
<p><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4">5. There will be animals you can hunt and predators who can hunt you</div> </strong></p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/GTA-Stag.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-15146" alt="GTA-Stag" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/GTA-Stag.jpg" width="600" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>This is also a first in GTA. There will be animals who can be hunted and predators who in turn can hunt you. There will be a variety of animals ranging from deer, beavers and more aggressive ones like Cougars and bears.</p>
<p>This opens up a totally new section of the game (a.k.a Red Dead Redemption) providing a respite when players find the gameplay missions monotonous.</p>
<p><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4">6. You&#8217;ll be able to customize weapons and cars in the game</div> </strong></p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/official-screenshot-cheetah-tearing-up-the-streets.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-15143" alt="official-screenshot-cheetah-tearing-up-the-streets" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/official-screenshot-cheetah-tearing-up-the-streets.jpg" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>Both weapons and cars will be editable in the game. As announced by Rockstar,&#8221;Without going into detail just yet, we can tell you that both will be very customizable – with a range of weapon upgrades as well as some very deep car customization. Stay tuned for more very soon.&#8221;</p>
<p>The weapons and cars will be customizable depending upon the money available at hand and the progress of the game.</p>
<p>These are our choices of 6 secrets of GTA V that you may have overlooked. Feel free to let us know your views and also add something we might have missed.</p>

But even in these days of new developments, we can&#8217;t possibly forget our faithful companion for years, the PlayStation 3.

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The gaming world is gushing over the PlayStation 4. But even in these days of new developments, we can&#8217;t possibly forget our faithful companion for years, the PlayStation 3. Many years of our lives have been shrouded by the aura that had been cast by the PS3.</p>
<p>The games on the PS3 were different worlds to many of us gamers. Here we will be taking a look at the six games that managed to rise above the others in the competition and prove to be stunning, visually. The winner is probably Uncharted 3 but, very well, I will leave the judging to you. Check out the list.</p>
<p><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4">1. God of War 3</div> </strong></p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/god-of-war-3.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14652" alt="god-of-war-3" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/god-of-war-3.jpg" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>Claimed by PSM3 Magazine as the  &#8221;simply one of the best games of all time&#8221;, God of War III was a commercial and critical success. The graphics of the game were stunning, particularly, the character of Kratos. IGN was also all praises for the  game calling the character of Kratos &#8220;perhaps the single most impressive-looking character ever in video games&#8221;.</p>
<p>The way that Kratos is shown cinematically in the game is simply wow. Definitely one of the best looking games on the PS3.</p>
<p><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4">2. Killzone 3</div> </strong></p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/killzone_3_desktop_background_wallpaper-HD.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14653" alt="killzone_3_desktop_background_wallpaper-HD" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/killzone_3_desktop_background_wallpaper-HD.jpg" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>The fourth installment in the Killzone series, Killzone 3 was the first in the series to employ stereoscopic 3D. The 3D mode is optional and requires a 3D ready TV. A bit cumbersome but the use of 3D along with the Move controller simply proved to be astounding to view.</p>
<p>If the game is compared to its previous installment, Killzone 2, a sacrifice is seen of some high quality effects, extreme motion blur, lighting and player count from Killzone 2 to make room for more eye pleasing draw distance, sharper image, less nauseating and less motion blur in Killzone 3.</p>
<p>With great graphics aiding the gameplay, definitely a good looking game on the PS3.</p>
<p><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4">3. Gran Turismo 5</div> </strong></p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/gt5pic-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14654" alt="gt5pic-1" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/gt5pic-1.jpg" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>Gran Turismo 5 is the first game of the Gran Turismo series to be developed for the PS3. It was the second most expensive game to be developed in gaming history and as such, no expense was spared in the visual department.</p>
<p>The lighting effects of the game were praised by critics as well as the interior and exterior details of premium cars. The Photo Mode also showed of the graphics of the game very well. Visually, definitely a game to try-out.</p>
<p><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4">4. Heavy Rain</div> </strong></p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/heavy-rain.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14655" alt="heavy-rain" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/heavy-rain.png" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>Developed by French developer Quantic Dreams, Heavy Rain is an interactive drama action-adventure video game. Using the PhysX engine, the game was a treat to watch and play right from the beginning. The graphical user interface used is one of the best ever seen.</p>
<p>The atmosphere is incredible – full of driving rain (which becomes central to the plot), fizzing neon lights, dank apartments and warehouses. The soundtrack contributes to the overall feel of the game and enhances the visual essence. Definitely a must-have game for the fans of visual effects.</p>
<p><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4">5. Uncharted 3</div> </strong></p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/uncharted-3-wallpaper.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14660" alt="uncharted-3-wallpaper" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/uncharted-3-wallpaper.jpg" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>With colossal graphical improvements from its predecessors, Uncharted 3: Drake&#8217;s Deception pushes the limits of the PS3. Touted by many as one of the best looking games on the PS3 ever, Uncharted 3 in all probability can be the best looking game on the PS3 ever.</p>
<p>The engine that has been used in the game by Naughty Dog is the &#8216;evolved&#8217; version of the engine that was used in the previous two installments of the series. The game has better physics, visuals and environmental effects as a result.</p>
<p>It was revolutionary what was done in terms of graphics when the game was released. Definitely a must-have and my favorite.</p>
<p><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style4">6. The Last of Us</div> </strong></p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/last2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14665" alt="last2" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/last2.jpg" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>Declared as a &#8216;masterpiece&#8217; by many, The Last of Us is the best selling game of 2013 so far. The use of lighting, post-processing and environmental effects are all more fleshed out than previous titles from Naughty Dog and the locations featured are beautifully rendered, rich in detail but at the same time they are also harsh, foreboding places, ravaged by chaos, with nature in the process of reclaiming urban environments.</p>
<p>It is interesting to note how in The Last of Us, Naughty Dog has adapted the technology to create a vastly different world while still retaining their trademark art style and keen eye for detail. One of the best looking games ever and definitely one of the best looking on the PS3.</p>
<p>This is our choice of the best looking games on the PlayStation 3. Feel free to give your opinion in the comments below if you think we have missed something or if you agree with our choices. We eagerly wait to hear from you.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The verdict is almost unanimous. Besides a few die-hard fans of Xbox who are crying foul, the PS4 has won the competition on all counts. Much more is being offered by Sony at a much lower price than the Xbox One.</p>
<p>Personally, we think that you should opt for the PS4 as it seems a lot more value for money and because we are fans of the system. However, don&#8217;t take our word for it, below is a list of six reasons which might convince you to make that decision.</p>
<p><strong><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style2"><strong>1. Great First-Party Games Support</strong></div> </strong></strong><strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Killzone-Shadow-Fall-4.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14627" alt="Killzone-Shadow-Fall-4" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Killzone-Shadow-Fall-4.jpg" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>Sony is going all-out in featuring first-party games in the line-up of the games that are being developed for the PS4. 30 games are in development, 20 of which are due to release within a year of the console launch, 12 of them being new franchises. The first-party exclusives that have been announced for the PS4 till now are DriveClub, Knack, Killzone: Shadow Fall, Infamous: Second Son and The Order: 1886.</p>
<p>The great support that Sony is providing for first-party games and the awesome line-up of games are reason enough to buy a PS4.</p>
<p><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style2"><strong>2. 10 times more powerful than PS3</strong></div> </strong></p>
<p>The next gen console from Sony, the PS4 is about 10x more powerful than its predecessor, the PS3. The phenomenal increase in power will facilitate better visuals, AI and physics. There will also be better gameplay and improvement in response time. Better lighting, anti-aliasing and possibly better frame rate will be the outcome of the increase in power.</p>
<p>Isn&#8217;t it reason enough for buying a PS4? Is good enough for me.</p>
<p><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style2"><strong>3. PS Plus service and free games</strong></div> </strong></p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/playstation-plus.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14628" alt="playstation-plus" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/playstation-plus.jpg" width="600" height="338" /></a></p>
<p>With the PlayStation 4 comes the unrivaled PS Plus service, a membership which never flatters to deceive. As PS3 users will swear by, the PS Plus provides many mouth watering offers and many free games. Example may be taken here of Battlefield 3 which has been announced to be free of cost for PS Plus members.</p>
<p>Free games? Don&#8217;t know why some are still thinking of not buying a PS4.</p>
<p><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style2">4. Reasonably priced</div> </strong></p>
<p>Priced at $399, the PS4 is reasonably priced compared to the sheer amount of facilities and goodies it is offering. Sony has somewhat managed to monopolize their console to a certain extent by offering it at a price that is $100 lower than its rival, the Xbox One.</p>
<p>Money matters. Reason enough to buy a PS4 over its competition.</p>
<p><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style2">5. Healthy Indie Games Support</div> </strong></p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/witness-header.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-14636" alt="witness-header" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/witness-header.jpg" width="668" height="242" /></a></p>
<p>Sony is supporting Indie games to further promote their vision of &#8220;games over all else&#8221;. More than a few Indie games have been announced and more have been promised to be on the line. The games that have been announced till now are Mercenary Kings, Outlast, Don&#8217;t Starve and Transistor.</p>
<p>The games seem promising and will developments as the PS4 approaches release will be interesting to see. Another reason to buy the PS4.</p>
<p><strong><div class="gk-textblock" data-style="style2">6. PS Vita Remote Play</div> </strong></p>
<p>There is no doubt that the unique Remote Play feature is a big selling point for consumers. Unrivaled in this department, Sony is further developing this feature which will be seen in the pair up of the PS4 and the PS Vita. New features will be available after the advent of the PS4 like the the screens of both the PS Vita and the PS4 will be on simultaneously when Remote Play is in effect.</p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/ps4-remote-play.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14630" alt="ps4-remote-play" src="/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/ps4-remote-play.jpg" width="600" height="349" /></a></p>
<p>Although it is dependent on the internet speed, the unparalleled convenience that the Remote Play offers is reason enough to buy the PS4.</p>
<p>Here is the list of the features of the PS4 which we think will work its way in opining you in buying the next gen console from Sony. Your views, as always, are welcome. Do comment.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When you first hear the term “gamer girl” what do people usually think of?</p>
<p>It is the walking sandwich maker that knows how to hold a controller. Boys can’t help but flirt with her when her voice echoes on the other end of the server. It is the camera slore that posts a picture of ninety percent boob and five percent controller, on Facebook for likes. She must be a fat slob with potato chips in her moustache because she is at the top of the scoreboard. These are some of the common conceptions.</p>
<p>Well whatever you think this “gamer girl” is, we are here to rule the world and drive the male species to slavery. I know sandwiches are delicious but c’mon, that comeback is overused. I mean, couldn’t you guys ask for anything better like a steak dinner? Or maybe even some soup along with that bread with meat you want all the time.</p>
<p>Okay first of all, I have to get this off my chest. I hate the term “gamer girl”, I seriously hate that term because it has become some label. The term can be negative or positive, depending on how the person perceives gamer girls. Don’t ask me if I am a girl when I go in to a lobby, especially when my name has Miss/Lady/Girl in the Username. I will just say “no I’m actually a unicorn” and tape a hotdog to my forehead just so you will shut up.</p>
<p>I am in a Lady Clan that consists of over 30 girls, so this perspective is not only from me; it is also from the many other girls that I listen to. When we go into a lobby the response is usually mixed. The guys that we play against are either gentlemen or the spawn of extremely sexist Satan.</p>
<p>The words that these guys use against us are getting old, like we’ve heard the same crap over and over again, it is becoming ineffective. I would seriously be more offended if you called me a buttered toast. Just like every other person playing games online, we love to piss you off, that way we know we are doing better than you.</p>
<p>We girls don’t care if you have a better k/d ratio, get the last kill cam, or know how to do the helicopter. We are here to game and have fun, not to listen to people who don’t even know our names. The thesis here is, we play games for us, not you. We are actually nice people, but if you poke us with a stick, we will tear your face off. Kidding, but you get the point.</p>
<p>Obviously I have more to say, but I’m not going to give you my whole cake. Tell us what you think about this article and even ideas for the next one.</p>
<p>As an added bonus, here&#8217;s some of my favorite &#8220;gamer girl&#8221; memes from the internet; for the lolz.</p>
