Generation360 : entrez dans la next-gen

Prévu pour le 20 avril 2006 au Japon, N3 est attendu avec intérêt par un grand nombre de gamers.


Phantagram en profite donc pour nous montrer la puissance de leur moteur graphique, ainsi on peut observer une héroïne (de loin et de près) et une bataille gigantesque. Les images parlent d’elles-mêmes.









Par contre, toujours pas de date pour l’Europe ou les États-Unis….

Si on l’en croit la partie “rumeurs” du magazine EGM (Electronic Gaming Monthly), les possesseurs d’X360 devraient pouvoir jouer à F.E.A.R sur la console next-gen de Microsoft.



Ce n’est pas réellement une surprise sachant que les développeurs de F.E.A.R ont déjà commis Condemned sur Xbox 360 et que celui-ci utilise le même moteur, ce qui rend la chose plus que faisable.

De plus, vu le carton que F.E.A.R. fait sur la toile, ce serait un plus indéniable pour le Live.

Wait and See…

Les possesseurs de Mac qui ont eu la chance d’avoir une Xbox 360 se sont vite rendus compte qu’il ne pourraient réellement apprécier leur nouveau gadget pleinement, ne pouvant lire les médias stockés sur leur Mac depuis la X360.

J’ai une bonne nouvelle pour vous, fanatiques de la pomme, grâce à un petit outil (payant bien évidemment, on est pas sur Mac pour rien) vous allez pouvoir visualiser et organisés vos librairies iTunes et iPhoto depuis votre console.



Une fois définis les partages, vous pourrez sur votre console naviguer et visualiser vos médias, organisé de la même manière que sur votre Mac.

Si vous effectuez une mise à jour de votre librairie, Connect360 (c’est le nom de l’application) conservera votre X360 à jour.

L’affichage de photo est très propre, surtout sur un écran HD.

Et ça supporte quels formats ?

Connect360 supporte le MP3, l’AAC, le WAV, l’AIFF et l’Apple Lossless for Music. Pour les photos, Connect360 supporte : JPEG, RAW, GIF, PNG, BMP and TIFF.

Pour en savoir plus allez voir par ici… (For english readers only)

Comme les images valent mieux que de longs discours, je vous laisse savourer cette vidéo :



A noter que vous pouvez télécharger cette vidéo ici…(10Mo)

En attendant plus de nouvelles du prochain Splinter Cell: Double Agent, quelques images sont arrivées. On peut le voir sans son uniforme habituel, et oui dans cet opus Sam se retrouve en prisonnier (avec la boule à zéro!).

La série Kingdom Under Fire arrive sur console Next Gen. Blueside Studios a annoncé le développement de Kingdom Under Fire : Circle of Doom sur 360 !


La puissance de la 360 servira à afficher un nombre important d’ennemis à l’écran (original ?). Un jeu action-stratégie qui aurait comme particularité (un mode Xbox live) de pouvoir jouer jusqu’à 4 en coopération. Il ne reste plus qu’à attendre plus de renseignements…

Un petit coucou depuis Cyrodill ou plutôt de Beteshda …



Enfin juste pour dire que The Elder Scroll IV: Oblivion passe Collector, avec en cadeau un CD avec des bonus et des pièces, répliques du jeu tout ça en plus de la carte bien sur (qui sera dans la version normale aussi).

On a hâte d’avoir ce jeu pour vous en dire plus…

Une soirée sous le signe des jeux de course peut être ? Ce n’est pas cette news qui dira le contraire ! OutRun 2006 : Coast 2 Coast (de Sega) s’est vu offrir un site web (français !). Un coin sympa pour découvrir les véhicules du jeu en attendant qu’il ne sorte. Le tout accompagné d’une musique agréable, que demandez de plus ?
