Introduction
In the UK we have enjoyed a very warm summer with perhaps two or three heatwaves. Great news if you like being outdoors and enjoy the heat. Bad news if you are a PlayStation 3. My office at home was always 2-3 degrees hotter than the rest of the house which I put down to all of the electronics in there, and the PlayStation 3 expels heat like an electric radiator. I decided not to play it during the worst of the heat due to my fear of it overheating.
But the summer is behind us and the days will get shorter and hopefully slightly cooler. That means more time for some PlayStation 3. I have quite the backlog of games I would like to try out: Resonance of Fate, Dragon Age Origins, Splinter Cell Double Agent and I would love to replay Fallout 3. I am also still searching for some suitable games to work on my next Platinum trophy. I’d like to try Platinum Journey, but my outstanding trophy requires you to play through the majority of the game with the same online player, but it is totally out of your control as there is no matchmaking.
This issue is focussed on games. I relive my journey into the God of War series with God of War III and then I explore the differences between Metal Gear Solid V on the PlayStation 3 and 4. Is it the best looking, best performing game on the console? I am also really happy with the article on the PlayStation Move SharpShooter, I had a lot of fun playing around with that one. Also Alessio and I did something a bit different for this issue, we had a debate about Trophies and wrote it down just for you. I think it’s a fun read, let us know if you like it.
So I hope you enjoy this issue and please send any thoughts, ideas or stories to [email protected].
