Does Bethesda have a new game that we can look forward to at E3 2014? Maybe, maybe not, but it seems that Amazon is expecting Bethesda to show off something. This is thanks to a listing on Amazon UK’s website where they have listed an entire range of “Bethesda E3 2014 Dummy” games for a variety of platforms.
So far we haven’t really heard anything about possible Bethesda-related announcements, so it is unclear if Amazon UK has been tipped off to something that has yet to be officially announced, like perhaps Bethesda gave them the heads up, or if they’re simply speculating that something could be announced, or if the listings were simply just made in error.
Interestingly enough it seems that one of the listings was made for the Nintendo Wii. Yes, you read that right, the Wii, not the Wii U. This seems to suggest that perhaps the listing was indeed made in error, although there is a good chance that this could be something that has yet to be announced. In any case E3 2014 will be kicking off on the 9th of June, so if you’d like to see if Bethesda has anything to share, do check back with us then for the details!
In the meantime what do you guys think it could be, assuming that there is something due for announcement? However for those who were hoping for Fallout 4, you probably won’t want to hold your breath.

With the popularity of the Fallout franchise, safe to say that there has been a lot of Fallout 4-related rumors in the past couple of years. Back in 2013 the Fallout 4 trademark was filed, and there was even a teaser website which turned out to be a fake. So what’s the deal? Could we be looking forward to a Fallout 4-related announcement soon?
Well it seems like we weren’t the only ones thinking about it, especially with E3 2014 around the corner. One gamer posted the question to Bethesda’s Pete Hines, asking if E3 could be when Fallout 4 be announced. The bad news is that if you were hoping that was the case, prepare to be disappointed.
Hines has since replied in the negative, stating that not only does Bethesda not pre-announce their announcements, but that if you were hoping to hear announcements from Bethesda Games Studio, you’d be in for a wait as it looks like the studio has nothing new to announce for now. Sure, some might think maybe Hines is playing coy, but it was back in February that Bethesda’s head, Todd Howard, stated that they don’t have a timeframe for their next announcement, so it looks like that sentiment will be holding true.
Just like Valve’s Half-Life 3, Bethesda’s Fallout 4 has been eluding gamers for quite a while now, so it is understandable that many gamers are starting to get a bit impatient and want to hear something concrete. In any case E3 will probably be packed full of other announcements, so if Fallout 4 is not in the cards, perhaps something else will be.
Fallout 4 Will Not Be Announced At E3 2014

It was back in 2011 that the folks at Naughty Dog released Uncharted 3 but since then we’re sure many are wondering what has become of the franchise and if we might see an Uncharted 4 in the near future. The good news is that the game is apparently alive and well, at least according to industry insider, Tidux, who recently tweeted that the game is expected to make an appearance at E3 2014.
According to Tidux, the game has apparently been in the works ever since the studio released Uncharted 3, meaning that the developers have been working on the title for the past 3 years. Now there is a legitimate reason behind gamers’ worry about the franchise, namely because there have been quite a few employees at Naughty Dog who left roughly around the same time.
This would seem to indicate that there could be some trouble in the studio which could lead to either a delay or possibly even cancellation of the game, but thankfully that does not appear to be the case.
Naughty Dog has yet to confirm this themselves but with E3 2014 taking place in a couple of month’s time, we guess we won’t have to wait too long to see if the rumors pan out. In the meantime who else is looking forward to a new Uncharted game?

If there is one title that gamers are looking forward to this year, it might be the next Halo title from Microsoft. Earlier this year, Microsoft actually reassured gamers that Halo 5 would be on track for a release in 2014, but a later rumor suggested that the game might be pushed to 2015 instead.
Naturally this is not good news for fans of the franchise who might be looking forward to playing the latest title on their brand new Xbox One consoles. However they are only rumors so try not to read into them so much for now. The good news is that as far as Halo-related information is concerned, you can certainly expect to hear some at E3 2014 which will be taking place in the middle of the year. (more…)

The Daily Roundup for 07.05.2013
Posted in: Today's Chili
You might say the day is never really done in consumer technology news. Your workday, however, hopefully draws to a close at some point. This is the Daily Roundup on Engadget, a quick peek back at the top headlines for the past 24 hours — all handpicked by the editors here at the site. Click on through the break, and enjoy.

In each issue of Distro, editor-in-chief Tim Stevens publishes a wrap-up of the week in news.
It’s not too often that we call a tech news story stunning, but that seems like an apt description for our reaction when Microsoft decided to pull an abrupt about-face and nix its controversial rights management for the Xbox One. We learned at the Seattle launch event that the system would have to call home once every 24 hours or every game installed from a disc would be disabled — even if you had the disc in the drive — and quickly the rumblings from the gamers started. They grew louder at E3 when Microsoft detailed the system’s DRM, a stream of complaints that quickly reached deafening levels on online forums and the like.
Yet, through all that, Microsoft stayed true to the party line, that the advantages of this system (being able to digitally share games, being able to change games without having to swap discs, etc.) outweighed the overwhelmingly negative reaction brewing among online gamers. That corporate message seemed to get bitter at times, weary at others, but never showed a sign of changing. Until, suddenly, a complete about-face this week.

When PrimeSense founder Aviad Maizels put a prototype of a 3D sensor on a chip in front of Microsoft in 2006, he had no idea it would lead to the biggest turning point in the Israeli startup’s history. Four years later, its partnership with the Redmond giant resulted in Kinect, the motion-sensing camera that made headlines around the world. In 2013, however, Microsoft unveiled an all-new Kinect, the result of years of entirely in-house development — without PrimeSense’s assistance. As fate would have it, the company returned to its chip-making origins a year ago, creating a new product called Capri, a cheaper, lower-power and tinier version of its 3D system-on-a-chip; so tiny, in fact, that it’s designed to be embedded inside tablets, laptops, thin displays and smartphones. With 3D use cases that go far beyond Dance Central, the Capri is the latest sign that PrimeSense is ready to break free from its video game roots.
