Until Dawn – Playstation Underground Video Preview August 20, 2015

Until Dawn has had a long and interesting development period, but with its release date quickly approaching, this page in the history of Playstation exclusive titles is drawing to a close.

Earlier today, Playstation Underground did a 20 minute gameplay preview of an early section of the game. Since its been announced, very little of the game has been shown, and because of that I’m really happy to see Sony officially release this footage. Take a look but don’t forget, if you’re in a horror game, never take a bath.

Playstation 4 Firmware 2.57 Released August 17, 2015

Just a friendly reminder for PS4 owners out there to don’t forget to run your console’s Software Update feature, because Sony has officially released Firmware 2.57 for the PS4 and unlike other updates it is not currently required to access the PSN.

Software Update 2.57’s patch notes are very sparse and only list’s one major change, improved stability when using certain features. That sounds like a nice way of saying “general bug fixes” to me.

You can get the update right now directly through the PSN or from Sony’s Official Website.

The Pokémon Company and Nintendo have announced their plans to distribute a Shiny Rayquaza through the Nintendo Network until September 14th, 2015.  The best part of this announcement is that Pokémon Trainers who have a copy of Pokémon Alpha Sapphire or Pokémon Omega Ruby and a Nintendo 3DS system with internet access can start getting their Rayquaza right now!  Just put your 3DS system online, and before loading your game’s save select gift from the game’s main menu, and choose gift by internet.  After it downloads onto your system, load your save and you can pick it up from any Pokémon Center in the game world.  Just make sure to save your game once you have it.
