FIFA 15 – First Football Game of its Kind

5_fifa_13_by_ea_sportsFor the first time ever gamers will experience playing football in a fresh and realistic way. FIFA 15 was released September 25, 2014 and features some of the most fresh and innovative play gamers will experience. Developed by EA Sports, the football video game translates the game through stunning graphic details and life-like players.

FIFA 15 is expected to change the gaming experience through improved player responses. With more than 600 new emotional player reactions, gamers will experience true play as their players respond to pivotal moments on the pitch including bad tackles, missed opportunities, and legendary goals. Through an integrated headset platform gamers will be able to speak directly to each other and enjoy smack talk and live interaction with team members and opponents.

This football video game also includes a dynamic match presentation feature that includes commentary alongside fan reactions, chants, and behaviors that are common to fans. Through improved bench reactions gamers will experience the game first hand in a way that is true to real-life while enjoying team tactics and play that is realistic and original. Gamers will be able to control their players with agility and finesse mirroring the style of the true, real-life players.

The most impressive concept for games will be that of the stadium itself. The stadiums will show wear as the matches progress such as cleat marks, slide tracks, trash, waving flags, and screaming animated fans.

The FIFA 15 is more than a football video game. It is an experience and that is why we have decided to present it to you. If you and your family have yet to experience the life-like interactions that FIFA offers we encourage you to read all about the new release for the Playstation 4 gaming console and most importantly experience playing football in a whole new way with your family or other players around the world.

5 Things Your Family Can Enjoy At Home

Family fun happens everywhere in your home. In the kitchen we bake cookies and make homemade treats, in the dining room we create memories, in the backyard we play games and enjoy warm laughs and giggling children. Anywhere in your home; inside and outside is a stage for enjoying your family and creating priceless memories. Determining the kind of fun for your family activities is the most challenging part of any family time.Family Fun - Courtesy Image By Photostock

Challenges arise because most families have to accommodate a wide range of generations. Here are five things your family can do at home over and over again. These family fun activities will promote family time as well as save you money because each activity can be done without making new purchases each time.

Go Virtual Bowling

Nowadays your family can go bowling just about anywhere they desire. Connect your Nintendo, XBox, PlayStation, or Wii to your home system for a time of fun and excitement and let bowling take on a modern twists. Set up your bowling game anywhere in your backyard or tote it to a local community park (just be sure you can power your HandiTheatre). Virtual bowling often enables players to customize each lane, choose animated avatars, and pick a silly bowling ball. Check with your local game shop for virtual bowling options for your gaming platform and discover why going bowling made our list.

Engage in a Tournament

Friendly competition is always a blast; so why not host your own? Tournaments are a great way to keep things light and energized because the best of the best players (family members) go head to head in the end. Be sure to choose a reward for the champion such as getting to pick the movie for your next family fun movie night or not having to do chores for a whole week. Tournaments are also ideal because your family can select their favorite virtual sports such as rugby, football, or snowboarding.

Discover Something New

Trying new things as a family promotes unity and closeness for years to come. Discovering something new as a family will require your family to work as a team cohesively as they seek to acquire the new skills needed to thrive in the new sports or games. Do a quick Google search for popular video games or trending new sports. Try activities that are popular in other countries such as American football, basketball or golf. The great thing about discovering something new virtually is that you save money and are not required to purchase all the physical items needed to play successfully for each family member in a variety of sizes!

Watch YouTube

YouTube is packed with some of the most entertaining family friendly content out there. Learn how to basket weave, put on make-up or increase physical strength and flexibility in a span of under 20 minutes. Take a family yoga class in your own backyard (get your yoga mats here) or learn how to make pickled cucumbers in the great outdoors (here’s a great starter kit for that). We even suggest taking up building a custom car engine live with famous YouTubers as your personal coaches. Simply set up your HandiTheatre screen in your garage or workshop and get to work; after all everyone in the family should learn how to change the oil in a car engine.

Watch a Movie

Watching a movie always makes the list for cheap family fun activities. Enjoy a family flick that keeps everyone entertained. Choose a Pixar movie for clean adult humor or a more modern Disney movie to keep the interest of both children and teenagers alike. Set up bean bags, fill up the ice chest, build a bon-fire for s’mores, and put hot dogs on the barbie for an outdoor movie. Or simply keep the fun inside with freshly popped popcorn, homemade treats, and more. The options are endless thanks to the flexibility of your HandiTheatre Home System that can be set up both indoors and outdoors.

Xbox One VS PS4

Xbox One VS PS4

Android or apple, Xbox or PlayStation, some of the never ending battles for consumers. Today we take a brief look at the PRO’s and CON’s of Xbox one and PlayStation 4

Xbox One or PS4, Design; Who’s the fairest of the all?

The Xbox One is ugly and bulky going against the slim line grain, whereas the PS4 have hit the nail on the head with their futuristic sleek design. An no change when it comes to the bulky Xbox external power box, while the PS4’s is thankfully internal.

Xbox One or PS4, UI; it’s what’s on the inside that counts!

Xbox One has a slight edge as its user interface is a bit cluttered but it’s functional and easy to use. The PS4’s streamlined approach looks okay but is perhaps a little too simplistic for its own good.
Extra features
The Xbox One is trying to achieve an all-in-one entertainment solution for your living room and the same can be easily said for the outdoors when combined with one of our systems. It’s not there yet, but is a well-rounded media hub with tonnes of apps and access to TV, Games, Movies, social networks, you tube, skype and tones more! The PS4 has dumped lost much of the PS3’s functionality. Sony’s new machine can’t play external video files, MP3s or even CDs.

Xbox One VS PS4, Power; Most bang for your buck.

Both systems provide gorgeous graphics, and is on par with today’s high-end PC gaming. On paper the technical specifications appear similar, but the PS4 does seem to have an edge in performance as it can handle 1080p FULL HD smoothly which has prepared it to push the limits of graphic in future compared to the Xbox one.which has a maximum of 720p
Controller: A lot of improvements in ergonomics, usability and just down right coolness on both sides and any difference is very marginal and would be down to personal preference.
The Xbox One also has its Kinect 2.0 motion sensor, which is promising. It’s bundled with every console, unlike Sony’s PlayStation camera.
The PS4’s best added extra is probably its remote play feature, which lets you stream PS4 games to Sony’s handheld PlayStation Vita so you can stop hogging the TV.

Xbox One VS PS4, Games (not that amazing right now on either side of the table and the range of availability is very limited)

Launch line-ups are usually pretty weak and that’s certainly true for this generation.
The PS4’s FPS Killzone: Shadow Fall, the painfully average platformer Knack and good but short twin-stick shooter Resogun.
The Xbox One’s Dead Rising 3, the briefly enjoyable Ryse: Son of Rome, the typically slick Forza Motorsport 5 and downloadable titles like Killer Instinct, Crimson Dragon and Powerstar Golf.

Xbox One VS PS4?

All in all, neither really stand out and I believe have been targeted toward different users (people who want a really good game console only vs a media center that does a good job all round). The Xbox One is my personal pick as it is more like a media center meaning I don’t have to have as many devices cluttering my TV cabinet (DVD, Blu-ray players, Set top box, laptops or dedicated PC etc where as PS4 seems to be just a gaming console. That’s my opinion, visit the official website and take a look for your self.
