As far back as February, we knew that Sony was enjoying success with its PS4 sales, after the corporation mentioned that its full year target had already been met. A crucial companion to unit sales is software sales, and the 2013 results show a surge of 33%, ensuring that the new alpha console is profitable at the start of the new generation of gaming.
A total of 14.6m units of consoles were shipped in 2013, with at least 7m being Ps4 units alone.

Welcome to the PlayStation Store update for May 6, 2014. We have a great update this week packed full of new content and sales. The PlayStation 4 receives several titles this week including MLB 14 The Show, Bound By Flame and the highly anticipated local multiplayer suite Sportsfriends.
The calendar has flipped over to May–though who really flips calendar pages anymore–and it’s getting closer to E3 2014, held at the Los Angeles Convention Center from June 10 to 12. The expo, home to big announcements and even larger hype, is sure to be a showcase for some big unannounced games for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, and maybe even the PlayStation 3, hopefully of the AAA variety. But last year Sony made some noise when they spent several minutes highlighting great indie titles that would be coming to the PS4, spearheaded by PlayStation VP of Third Party Development Adam Boyes. Since last June, it seems like a new independent developer is announcing that they will be coming to PlayStation devices every week — and this week, twelve of them made it public at the same time.
While PlayStation Mobile hasn’t been a sure fire hit, it’s had a niche group of gamers and developers who’ve been loyal to the concept. For those not familiar, PlayStation Mobile was/is Sony’s attempt at expanding beyond the core PlayStation consoles and creating games that run on

Since the release of the PlayStation 4 (and even before, with the PlayStation 3), Sony has made it clear that they want more indie developers and games on their console. I personally enjoy these smaller game experiences and as I play more of them I am finding myself drawn to them as much if not more than the standard AAA title. Having said that, I was very excited to get my hands on the space shooter Strike Suit Zero: Director’s Cut. Strike Suit Zero was originally funded through Kickstarter in 2012 and released on PC in 2013. The game comes to PlayStation 4 in Director’s Cut form with new features and updates. Does Strike Suit Zero: Director’s Cut shine on the PlayStation 4? Keep reading to find out!

I have been a fan of the Deception franchise since Tecmo’s Deception: Invitation to Darkness released for the original PlayStation in 1996. In that game you play as a servant of the devil and are tasked with defending ‘The Castle of the Damned’ from all manner of heroes and adventurers who are unfortunate enough to enter. The gameplay was in the 1st person perspective and to defeat the enemies the player had to set traps to either stun, kill, or capture the intruders. My preteen self enjoyed the dark story and unique (at-the-time) concept of playing as the ‘bad guy’. Fast forward to today and it has been 9 years since the last Deception game. This week Deception IV: Blood Ties released here in the United States and became the newest entry in the franchise. Does Deception IV: Blood Ties stack up to its predecessors?
