Twitter’s New App!

Twitter are gearing up to steal Facebook’s live-video thunder and has launched a brand new app for your Apple Tv, Amazon Fire Tv and Xbox One! The app offers a lot of content for its users, of course live streaming content video from Periscope but also short clips from Vine. So you’re not far away from that latest meme!

This signals the move that Twitter is undergoing to get into the streaming atmosphere – it’s getting life underway in a big way with the streaming of the first of 10 big NFL games for all of our American listeners. Not only that but you can check out your timeline as you watch your live-streamed games!

Fifa 17!

Fifa is BACK! In a big big way too, introducing the new Frostbite engine, bringing new graphics and realism to faces and environments. Frostbite is shown off with the “Journey” mode which allows you to take control of Alex Hunter where your decisions determine where you go in the game and in your life on and off the pitch as a footballer. Experience never before seen environments in Fifa games, such as match day tunnels, Locker Rooms, Manager’s office and even the team plane!

Not only that there is a complete overhaul in the way that players move and think on the pitch, interacting with other players physically and execute more intricate attacks together.

Funk Butcher really enjoyed the game, he even ran home from the show last week to get his hands on the demo. Even saying that they are leaps and strides ahead of Pro Evolution Soccer, so it has the Butcher sign of approval!

Final Fantasy XV

Final Fantasy is BACK and Funk Butcher is GASSED! Final Fantasy XV is released on November 29th 2016 and we at How To Kill An Hour HQ couldn’t be more excited. After going to the Philharmonic Orchestral Performance of the music from the game this past week we have well and truly been hooked into the Final Fantasy world. Square Enix are doing a ton of promo for this game and its one of the biggest versions of the game since the 7th installment, to highlight this a high budget movie is coming out on the 30th September called Final Fantasy XV: Kingslave! This game is going to be HUGE!

New Homefront:The Revolution info!!

 

If Homefront: The Revolution didn’t seem sick enough already, the guys over at Deep Silver have announced MORE features. Check below for more info:

Deep Silver today unveiled the  Homefront®: The Revolution ‘Merits’ program – a reward scheme for members of the Homefront community. All you got to do is register at Homefront-Game.com and earn merits by completing simple actions on the website. Almost as easy as taking candy from a baby!

Each merit that you guys earn unlocks a piece of Combat Gear from the Red Rebel set, which then can be used to customise your Co-Op character in Resistance Mode. How do I get this gear to use in-game I hear you ask? Simply link your profile to your Xbox/PSN/Steam account to your Homefront account a little bit closer to when the game releases in May. There’s a total of 7 Merits for you to get your teeth sunk into and more will be released over a period of weeks.

AND if that weren’t enough there’s a new ‘Hearts and Minds 101’ Featurette that’s been released (Video Above) which highlights how you guys can perform actions in the open world of Homefront®:The Revolution, which with a bit of luck will ignite a Revolution!!!!

Homefront: The Revolution is scheduled for release on 17th May 2016 in North America, and 20th May 2016 in all other territories on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Windows PC.

For more information and to get the latest updates on both Homefront: The Revolution and the upcoming Xbox One Closed Beta, follow the Homefront Twitter and Instagram at @HomefrontGame or on Facebook at Facebook.com/HomefrontGame.
