130386_mmcfullThe Windows 8 Release Preview may be the operating system that's getting all of the attention right now but there's another that deserves it's share of fame. The newest multiMAN is expected to incorporate a new file manager called mmOS. No official release date has been posted but a changelog of the upcoming build has appeared. You know what that means.

Just a few days after Maxis hinted at a big GDC announcement, it looks like their surprise has been outed.
It’s been a while since we last saw the SimCity franchise. The last game in the series, SimCity Societies, launched in 2007 to mixed reviews. Since then, Maxis has remained mum on whether it would be revisiting the series. Until, of course, last week, when EA hinted that the company had an enormous reveal planned for this year’s Game Developers Conference.
No information was given on what Maxis might have up its sleeve, but most people immediately began to assume that a new SimCity was on the table. And, it turns out, they may have been right.
Thanks to some scanned images from a German magazine, we now have a few details and screenshots/concept art from what could be SimCity 5. The game will take place 20 years after other iterations of the franchise, and will feature more flexible city designs that don’t depend so much on blocks. The game will also feature a new graphics engine and – gasp – multiplayer in the form of global leaderboards.
Here’s some of the shots and concept art, courtesy of NeoGaf:
Are you ready for another SimCity?

An invitation-only reveal at GDC promises to unveil the next generation of game building technology.
Unreal Engine is one of the core building blocks of the games industry. Countless classic titles have been built using one version or another of Epic’s engine, from Batman: Arkham City to Mass Effect 3. And it looks like Epic is ready to unveil the next iteration of its powerful game authoring software—to very specific people.
The company has confirmed that Unreal Engine 4 will be shown at this year’s Game Developers Conference, scheduled to begin March 6 in San Francisco. However, the engine will not be on public display; only a select few individuals will have the privilege of viewing the software in action. Those individuals, mostly partners, customers and prospective customers, will be bound by NDA.
The NDA, apparently, is in effect due to Unreal Engine 4 running on next-gen technologies that can’t be discussed in a public forum. You know, like those top-secret Microsoft and Sony projects that are perhaps less secret that the companies would like to admit.
If you’re a fan of Epic, you’ll still have a chance to interact with the company at GDC. Tim Sweeney, Rod Fergusson and Cliff Bleszinski will be participating in 15 events over the course of the week, all of which are open to any attendee that wishes to participate.
Are you excited to see what Unreal Engine 4 will bring to the table?

But it runs on the Frostbite 2.0 engine!
If there’s one thing we learned from 2011, it’s that people will buy pretty much anything as long as it’s a first-person shooter. And since DICE isn’t likely to release another Battlefield title this year, somebody is going to have to stand up and take a (very small) bite out of Black Ops 2. That somebody appears to be Danger Close, and their strategy appears to be Medal of Honor.
The next Medal of Honor, subtitled Warfighter (creative), will hit shelves in October. The game is being built with DICE’s Frostbite 2.0 game engine—the very same one that powers the exceptionally pretty Battlefield 3. DICE, however, will not be involved in development; Danger Close has elected to build the entire game in-studio.
EA is planning to drop more details on the game at GDC in a couple of weeks. For now, we’ll just have to be satisfied with the promise of yet another brownish FPS.
Stay tuned for more updates, and in the meantime—do you prefer Medal of Honor over CoD or Battlefield?

Well, the NEXT Metal Gear Solid, anyway. Whenever that happens.
News broke early this morning that Kojima Studios is up to its old tricks, and is probably working on another Metal Gear Solid game. The tip came through a job listing posted by the company, which stated they were looking for project engineers to work on Metal Gear Solid “targeted for high-end consoles and PCs.” Which would be business as usual for Kojima, if not for that little thing in there about PCs.
It’s been a long while since fans of the Metal Gear Solid franchise have been able to to enjoy a game with a keyboard and mouse, and subsequently lecture other gamers about how much better the PC experience was than the console. This job listing essentially confirms that Kojima is eyeballing PCs as one release platform for the next entry in the MGS saga.
There’s another interesting job post regarding engineers for “network gameplay functionality,” which indicates that Kojima may be adding multiplayer to the franchise. Whatever’s going on over at Kojima, it’s certainly going to be interesting.
Would you rather play Metal Gear Solid on a PC or a console?

Sony is ready for the influx of new Vita users, but may have made a costly mistake.
As of this morning, the PlayStation Store was flush with content for the newly released PS Vita. Sony dropped a metric crap-ton of new content onto the store, most of which is engineered to interact with or be played on the Vita. You’ll find new games, new apps and a few demos—plenty of content to keep you busy for your first few hours with the device.
There are three “augmented-reality” games currently available; Cliff Diving, Fireworks and Table Soccer all use the Vita’s cameras to detect player movement, which then influences gameplay. New games include Tales from Space: Mutant Blobs Attack and Touch My Katamari. There’s also a new Twitter app, full Flickr support and Netflix, all for the PS Vita.
One curious tidbit has been raised by attentive gamers, though: some of the PS Vita demos are labeled as “PS Vita Game” instead of as demos, and are the full size of the actual game. There is speculation that Sony may have pulled another “Undead Knights” and accidentally released full games as demos, which would mean that you can currently pick up Rayman Origins, Dungeon Hunter, Hustle Kings, Little Deviants and others free of charge.
If you picked up a Vita at launch, now would be the time to check out those demos to see if Sony screwed up. Let us know how it goes in the comments.

The company is waiting for “the right” handheld. Hint: Vita isn’t it.
Naughty Dog, the company behind Uncharted, Crash Bandicoot and the upcoming, ridiculously over-hyped The Last of Us, is probably one of the most well-respected developers in the industry at the moment. The Uncharted series has received mountains of praise, and has served as one of the most purchase-motivating PlayStation exclusives since the days of Final Fantasy.
Now that the PlayStation Vita is officially on shelves (well, almost), people want to know who will be making games for the device, and who won’t. As of this week, you can file Naughty Dog under the “won’t” category. Community manager Arne Meyer has confirmed that the company has no Vita titles in the works, and won’t be entering the portable market until “the right handheld” comes along.
Meyer noted that console development is really Naughty Dog’s wheelhouse, playing to their strengths in pushing the limits of both hardware and the company’s game engines. He also stated that he couldn’t rule out a Vita game completely, but that at the moment, there are no plans for Naughty Dog to bring a game to the system.
Uncharted: Golden Abyss is expected to be one of the biggest Vita launch titles at release, but it was developed by Sony Bend borrowing the license from Naughty Dog.
Naughty Dog is one of Sony’s biggest and most successful developers. Seeing them out of the race on the Vita is certainly strange, especially when you consider that Sony just announced that all of its studios were working on something Vita-related.
Do you think more developers will follow Naughty Dog in passing on Vita development?

Ó

Activision plans to reveal all-new Skylanders at New York’s Toy Fair.
Are you familiar with Skylanders? If you’re not, here’s a primer: Skylanders is a combination toy and video game franchise, in which real-life plastic toys interact with a special “portal” for gaming consoles and become living, breathing in-game characters. Players can use any character for which they have the toy. Skylanders is, essentially, a machine engineered to harvest money from helpless parents. It’s also a pretty cool game.
At this week’s Toy Fair, Activision reportedly has plans to announce a few new figures in the Skylanders line-up. There are eight new special figures, all of which are “giant-sized” and feature special abilities. Some of them even light up when near the game portal. There will also be eight new regular Skylanders launched at the same time as the giants.
Skylanders has been a sales juggernaut, generating more money than any other new children’s IP last year. Now that Activision smells blood, you can bet more figures will be on the way at steady intervals.
Have you played Skylanders? What did you think?
