… reckon Capcom. History shows that as a device gets older it gets cheaper, and thankfully Publishing giant, Capcom, concurs with this completely. In a recent investor Q&A session, Capcom, through their official rep, said: “We believe that further declines in prices of consoles will cause a slow decline in prices of software as well. But we expect to…
… and fixed. The latest patch for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is live Xbox LIVE on US servers. There have been quite a few glitches reported and readers of Kotaku have sent in mails reporting that the patch fixed exploits like the Akimbo glitch, and all seems well. So happy hunting. Via Kotaku.
As this year races towards its conclusion and the Game of the Year winners get fiercely debated around the virtual water cooler, I can’t help but take a glass is half empty approach to the coming year. There are sequels (and prequels) coming – and there are lots of them.
Yes, between them all, there are some original IPs coming, but the most anticipated games are looking to be sequels, prequels or extensions of existing IPs. Maybe I’m being a little cynical, but isn’t that playing it a little safe and milking the consumer a bit? Or maybe I should learn to be more grateful, because admittedly, the list of games coming next year is awesome.
Just as I was busy writing an article about how next year, 2010, was the Year of the Sequel(tm), comes a suggestion that Dead Space 2 will only see the light of day in 2011. According to Gamestop’s listings, the game is due for release 1/3/2011. So either 3rd of January or 1st of March. Either way, it means an…
Embarrassingly, I have a sealed copy of this game still lying around waiting to be played, and Codemasters drops a second DLC for it…I suppose it’s time to unwrap the sucker then. Overwatch is a multiplayer focused DLC which adds two extra modes, Blindside and Supremacy. In Blindside one team tries to complete objectives as quickly as possible while the…
Some more rumors have popped up about the rumoured 2010 release Ghost Recon. Details have been very scarce about a sequel to the much loved series. The Australian Classification Board was in the news for classifying some game called “Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Predator.” But according to GameSpot, the picture becomes even more clouded when we look at a US…
Bioware CEO and general manager Ray Muzyka, told GamePro of some of the previously mentioned facts about Mass Effect 2 and 1 being linked. Yes it is the sequel but you will need to have completed the first game for some choices to count in the upcoming game. Things to do with the status of characters, relationships, and side quests…
For the first time ever, I wish I was a yank. SEGA is running a competition to give one lucky fan, double-tickets to party with Bayonetta and Playboy at the Playboy New Year’s Eve event in Chicago. The game will be playable at the event, and as much as I cannot wait for this game, I doubt I would want to…
Activision kept this one under the radar it seems, but has now confirmed that they are currently working on a new open-world game called True Crime, set for release in autumn in the US. Now the bit that got me interested is that it is inspired by classic Hollywood and Asian cinema style action thrillers. True Crime is being developed from scratch by United Front Games and the story is of detective Wei Shen who infiltrates one of Hong Kong’s notorious Triad crime syndicates… swwweeet!
