PS4 vs. Xbox One: ‘LittleBigPlanet 3’ Gets Hugh Laurie, ‘Sleeping Dogs’ Definitive Edition and ‘Halo 2 Anniversary’ Detailed
After the announcement of the "LittleBigPlanet 3" PS4 bundle, Sony is giving more fans reasons to opt for the game. SCE Australia has announced via a press release that Hugh Laurie, the start of the concluded medical drama "House M.D.," will be joining the cast of voice actors for "LittleBigPlanet 3." In particular, he will be voicing the villain Newton, once the game is released on the PS4 and PS3 this November.
What's even more interesting is that Laurie will be reuniting with old pal and fellow star in "A Little Bit of Fry and Laurie and Blackadder," Stephen Fry, who will be reprising his role as the narrator of the title.
"It's not nearly as different as I might have thought 10 years ago; storytelling is storytelling, whatever form it takes and I'm attracted to anything I can do for the first time," said Laurie regarding his new role.
Laurie is not the only voice coming into the franchise. The PlayStation Blog has also announced that Peter Serafinowicz (Shaun of the Dead), Tara Strong (The Fairly Oddparents' Timmy Turner) and Nolan North (Uncharted) are also coming in to the cast.
'Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition' Gets a Sneak Peek
North America and Europe will be getting the "Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition" for the PS4 and Xbox One. There is a limited edition that includes an art book apart from the physical copy of the book.
HighDefDigest features a video showcasing the packaging for both the Xbox One and PS4. Check out the unboxing video of the "Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition" in the link above. The video below shows off a minute and a half of gameplay in the Nightmarket Combat.
'Halo 2 Anniversary' Not Coming With 1080p
The Xbox One's much-anticipated collection coming this holiday, "Halo: The Master Chief Collection," has received an update straight from developer 343 Industries. It appears that fans should not expect a 1080p run for the "Halo 2 Anniversary," because 343 Industries has already confirmed a 1,328 x 1,080 at 60fps, reports IGN.
While it's not a full 1080p, it is definitely a boost from the original 720p run, because the developer wanted to give more on the area of detail and clarity for the "Halo 2 Anniversary."
"So in the last weeks of development, our teams were able to meet a stretch goal and the campaign of 'Halo 2 Anniversary" now runs at 60gps at a crisp resolution of 1,328 x 1,080, which is a significant and meaningful boost in image quality we think fans are really going to appreciate," said Dan Ayoub, executive producer, to IGN. Ayoub did confirm that all of the other games in the collection will be at 1,920 x 1,080, 60fps run.
