The boss of Ubisoft Toronto, Jade Raymond, announces the company is set to unveil the studio's first project which has been labeled as a "Triple A" title.
It appears the game will most likely be a new Splinter Cell game and not a brand new IP or series based on what was hinted in the announcement. Quote:

You mean they're not Capcpom?

I hope they keep the Conviction style gameplay for the new Splinter Cell. I know some hardcore fans didn't like it, because it was more mainstream gameplay (i.e. dumbed down), but I thought it was a lot of fun. Must have spent hours playing through deniable ops missions. It's just one of those games that made you feel like a total badass.
One thing I would change, is that enemies need to get a little nervous when you start taking out their comrades. It's kind of silly when an enemy is yelling out that sam is a pussy and going to die, when a dozen of his friends are lying dead around him. It was even more noticable since I played it right after Arkham Asylum which actually does have enemies who get scared. |
|
You got to be kidding me. Wow.
|
At only 15 dollars, I could definitely see this being a fake.
|
People are tripping over UMvC3X, even though it seems like it'll be what they wanted UMvC3 to be - a DLC expansion.
Whatever man, I wanna see those fucking characters. I take it this time there will be fan faves across the board. If this is true. |
Megaman should have been in the game from the beginning and it is fake but wouldn't put it past capcom anyways

So, any speculations? I'm hearing people speculate that it could be the long awaited TimeSplitters 4, but I don't think Crytek would hype up a TimeSplitters game like that. Keeping it a secret and claiming that it's the "best kind of project they've ever done", but I'm hoping I'm wrong with that. I've been waiting on TimeSplitters 4 for years now. |
It won't be TimeSplitters 4
|
Meaning it won't blow people away when they announce it. You think TS4 and almost anything is a step down from that.
|
Yeah, I won't be surprised if it's some kind of COD style FPS war game. I'm sort of expecting it to be anyway.
If it is something like that, it'll just be a massive disappointment to me. :-\ |
If it's Crysis 3 or Timesplitters 4, I'll be happy.

Microsoft announces small changes are on its way in regards to Gamerscores as Xbox Live Arcade titles will be getting an increase from the standard 200 points possible to now a 400 points possible per arcade title.
No changes are expected to be done to retail games which will keep the 1000 points as a max and to DLC games which will still keep their own points and kept together with their retail counter-part. Quote:
The move is being done to please Gamerscore chasers who have felt either arcade titles provided way too few points or kept demanding for more increases. http://www.egmnow.com/wp-content/upl...9/xboxlive.jpg http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...xbla-releases/ _______________________________________________________________ Daily Recap: 1) Ubisoft might be changing its mind on completly ending the Desmond story with Asassin's Creed III as the studio announces they are planning on keeping Desmond around for future main AC games. http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...-a-conclusion/ 2) Double Fine's Kickstarter fundraiser for their upcoming classic point-and-click PC adventure game has raised $2.8 million in funds with 1 day left in the fundraiser. http://www.screwattack.com/news/doub...3-million-mark 3) The Mojang-Bethesda lawsuit over the use of the term "Scrolls" has been settled with Bethesda gaining complete rights to the term "Scrolls" although Mojang will be allowed to use the name for their upcoming game. http://www.screwattack.com/news/moja...s-been-settled 4) A court has dismissed the majority of the fraud claims in a lawsuit by former Infinity Ward bosses against Activision with the remainder of the lawsuit still expected to go on trial on May 7. http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...ion-dismissed/ |

That at least explains why mine went from 20000 to 10. |
Mine is 35G. I unlocked 1 in ME3 before I realized it. Hope it either gets added or lets me do it again. I will absolutely die if I miss out on "Mail Slot".

Kotaku says that MS says it should be fixed and, if it's not, try redownloading your profile.
I'll be trying that when I'm online later tonight. |
I'll try it now. brb ttfn

Back to normal, although I think I lost Mail Slot forever. The in game counter shows 10/10 kills completed, but I don't have the achievement. If I was going for 1000 I would be very upset.

Try and get 10 more. See if it will reset and reunlock.

On a new save though

It's okay. My year long hiatus from the 360 curbed my need for achievements.

According to Ono, the two part set for the Versus series involving Street Fighter and Tekken will be taking a lot longer than originally expected.
Either Capcom was assuming the entire set would be finished by a certain date or at least assumed Namco's turn with Tekken X Street Fighter would take about the same amount of time Capcom needed for SFxT. Instead the project might have added more years from its original estimate based on Ono's request for a status report from Namco which contained absolutely nothing. It was later revealed Namco did not have any basic design documents nor any idea of how they want their version of the game to be made. Quote:

Ono was joking, it is part of the kayfabe between him and Harada. TxSF revealed some assets months ago (Chun-Li stance and Shoryuken animation tests).

The current CEO of Epic Games and creator of the first Unreal Engine, Tim Sweeney, hints or implies there might be one last major console generation before the mobile market claims dominance over the video game industry.
He implied the console market has around 6-8 more years left of its dominance or around 1-2 more generations of consoles before mobile devices can both match and surpass anything capable on a console. Quote:

Why was the Joker talking. Aren't they suppose to mumble and stuff. Did Lego's do this before.

My Legos talked to me all the time.

Voice acting is one of the new things they're trying, along with a huge world hub of Gotham City. Good to hear Clancy Brown as Lex again.

I really liked the voiceless versions of the Lego games, but I'm not adverse to trying this. Of course, I never played the first Batman title, so I might want to do that.

After months of phishing attacks on the Xbox 360 involving FIFA 12's Ultimate Team mode, EA finally releases a patch to fix the problem on their side of the attacks.
The fixes are part of a larger patch which will update and fix in other bugs of the game. Logging in to Ultimate Team mode now requires a security question to be answered if its being accessed from a different console or once every 30 days if accessed from a web browser. Users can now also lock their accounts anytime they want to prevent unwanted access when they are not playing the game as well. Microsoft has been patching their side of the issue since the release of FIFA 12 but this will be the first time EA has actually done something to combat the problem. Previously EA stated their game wasn't responsible for the problems nor had any fixes besides asking people to be more careful with their credit accounts. http://www.egmnow.com/wp-content/upl.../10/fifa12.jpg http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...ection-update/ _________________________________________________________ Daily Recap: 1) Update on Obisidian's layoffs as a current rumor states Microsoft was responsible for cancelling and pulling funding for the unannounced project meant for the next Xbox console which ended up causing the layoffs. http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...-by-microsoft/ 2) Possibly influenced by Activision's Call of Duty Elite model, EA announces they are considering adding their own subscription-based model for future games in the Battlefield series. http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...efield-titles/ 3) Before the decision to include multiplayer into Mass Effect 3, Bioware was originally considering making a FPS game involving the Mass Effect brand. http://kotaku.com/5893424/there-was-...oter/gallery/1 Bonus News: CBS, owners of Gamespot, has bought out Giant Bomb and other companies in the Whiskey Media brand.

Bethesda rumored to be making an MMO style Elder Scrolls game and could have been a key reason behind the lawsuit against Mojang's game called Scrolls.
The game is set as a prequel to the series and is expected to be called Elder Scrolls Online. In terms of storyline, it will occur during the "Second Era" or roughly hundreds of years before the earliest game in the series and about a millennium before Skyrim. There will also be three playable factions with each faction represented by an animal (lion, dragon, bird of prey). The game is set to arrive this May although no other details were given. http://www.egmnow.com/wp-content/upl...Skyrim-DLC.jpg http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...vealed-in-may/ ____________________________________________________________ Daily Recap: 1) Blaze Europe confirms a new Neo-Geo handheld will be arriving later this year although current rumors place the price around over $600 or $700. http://www.giantbomb.com/news/hey-re...y-exists/4038/ 2) Racket and Clank HD Collection has been confirmed for a May release for Europe and a Fall 2012 release date for the US/Canada.

Also, some guy has lodged an official complaint with the Better Business Bureau and Federal Trade Commission because he didn't like the ending of Mass Effect 3.
Between going that far over a games ending and everyone crying over DLC in ME3 and SFxT, I'm starting to go off my fellow gamers. The way I see on-disc DLC, they keep the price of the game at a reasonable level while everything else in life is increasing in price. By selling the game for £40/$60, the game is at a managable price but, with production (and life in general) getting more expensive, this is less of a profit, realitively speaking. So, rather than hiking up the price of the game instore and damaging sales, they keep it at a price we will accept. The DLC then lets them make an actual profit in a way that's optional and more managable because it's spread out of a few months. If the alternative to locked on-disc DLC was paying an extra £30/40 or an extra $40/50 for every single thing unlocked, would people prefer that? As I see it, that's the legal* options. £40/$60 for the game and a few extra £/$ for locked DLC every other week or £80/$100 instore for everything included. *specifically put in the word "legal" so Hasney wouldn't suggest his prefered method, which is besides the point. |
I am similarly unamused by gamers who think they're being ripped off in their videogame purchases.

Honestly, if they're going to hit us with 40 bucks of DLC, something they would NEVER charge us for on-disc if they were being transparent, they should lower the initial price point. Otherwise, they've been making BILLIONS, so the argument that they need to do this to keep up is just plain false. Also, why don't games like Skyrim need to do it? There's hundreds of hours of content on those games, with fewer iterations in between. Why aren't companies like Bethesda and Obsidian in the toilet? Rockstar? C'mon, man, it doesn't pass the smell test. But yeah, it really pisses me off when consumers go to consumer advocacy groups or want things at a reasonable price like consumers. Why can't they just be wallets with legs? Wanting honesty, transparency, and fairness are so selfish. y u so intitld, gamurz? |

In a discussion concerning the Dragon Age series, Bioware revealed their plans for the future along with the news of an unannounced Dragon Age II expansion pack ending up becoming cancelled.
Mark Darrah from Bioware mentioned future games in the series will focus a lot based on the results gained from both fan opinions and feedback from the first two games. Besides the official forums and social media sites, Bioware will also have its first public forum for future games starting at PAX East next month. Quote:

Congress is considering a bill that would potentially treat video games similar to tobacco and alcohol products.
The bill is aimed at adding warning labels to all ESRB-rated game and was written by Joe Baca, D-California, who has been pushing the idea around since 2009. The original 2009 and 2011 versions only targeted games rated higher than "E" but the 2012 expands to include all games regardless of its rating. The warnings would not actually detail what questionable content is in a particular game like the ESRB does but would be pushed as an actual health warning label. Quote:

Just gonna throw this in here since pretty much everyone reads this thread anyway.
Since the last dash update ruined my 360s disc drive, my dad loaned me his 360. Thing is, his is flashed or modded or whatever. I don't know for sure and neither does he since he just bought it off Craigslist a few years ago for the hell of it. Things were fine for a while but now attempting to play any games that have come out since around October 2011 causes the system to hit me with the "system must be updated" box or whatever. I would just update and hope for the best, but given this isn't my Xbox I'm not about to fuck anything up. Now I don't take this 360 online so I'm not worried about getting flagged or anything, I just wanted to know if I could safely use the system update on recent games like ME3 without any ill effects on the 360s ability to play games offline? Any help would be appreciated |
I'm not too sure but I wouldn't do it.
|
Yeah I've been putting it off because I didn't think it'd take me this long to get my 360 fixed. Started doing it with WWE 12 a few months ago so I just shelved the game, but now I REALLY wanna play ME3 so I'm trying to get it figured out asap
|
Update is fine, but it might flash the box back to stock and not play modded games anymore.
For the newer games, you'd have to re-nod it with LT 3.0 anyway and some newer games need a specific DVD burner in your PC to work. The flashing of TE XBox to a modded state is easy, getting working discs of newer games is difficult as hell now. |
Even though you don't play the games offline, I think if you try to download the game patches or updates, it can still send out a flag to Microsoft.
I think them and Nintendo include system checkers in the updates who's purpose is to remove the hacked firmware (or at least I know Nintendo does). No clue on what Sony includes with their weekly updates. |
Quote:
|
You'd be flagged, but to be completely honest with you all that does is ban that specific 360 from Live. Your account, if you have one, will be fine.

Warren Spector reveals new details about the upcoming Epic Mickey 2 with drop-in/out co-op and a lot more musical parts to be included.
In regards to camera issues that plagued the first game, Spector explained this was a top priority for the sequel with the largest team assigned for improving the camera controls. The game will allow drop-in/out co-out with the second player controlling Oswald and the CPU taking control when a player drops out of the game. Voice acting will be a new feature with both Mickey and Oswald to be fully voiced in the game and a historic first for Oswald who never had a voice in his cartoons. The voice acting will be tied into random musicals encountered in the game which was also revealed as a new feature. Quote:

According to Capcom, the survival horror genre is no longer strong enough to stand on its own for both the future of the Resident Evil series and the gaming industry as a whole.
In an interview with Gamasutra, Masachika Kawata, the executive producer for Resident Evil Revelations on the 3DS, says the market for the creepy and slower paced games no longer sells well enough in North America with concerns of the genre beginning to reach niche status. His main reasoning involved comparing the sales of recent horror and horror-like games with the higher selling quick-paced shooters that currently dominate the market. Quote:

That's retarded, there's plenty of action games on the market, we need some more real horror games. But I guess the money is on the generic shooters these days... |
