D Mac how do you feel about XBLA/PS3 games? Because that's exactly how they work right now. I imagine, eventually, all games will be digital download. But retail stores are still fairly important in the grand scheme of things.

SEGA hints a new F-Zero game might eventually be made but also had to confirm it wouldn't be coming in the near future after a recent interview showed the company is willing to make another game in the series.
Biggest issue right now according to the producer is creating a good enough idea or gameplay feature for both SEGA and Nintendo to approve of the project. Instead of traditionally having Nintendo come up with an idea and finding a studio to make the game, the F-Zero series has a special status of SEGA getting to determine when the game can be made and all they have to do is tell Nintendo to get the project approved.

I read Nintendo didn't want a new F-Zero because they felt the series had gone as far as it could with GX so they ended the series there.

I read that Sega can continue it if they have a decent enough concept.

According to a trusted source (same source that leaked out the new Batman being a downloadable title), the upcoming Alan Wake game will be a downloadable game for XBLA.
The game will be titled as Alan Wake: Night Spring and is set to be sort of an "expansion" type game while explaining the story to new people (similar to the Mass Effect 2 comic for PS3 users). Microsoft will not allow any screen shots to be released since they most likely want to officially debut the game at E3. http://www.xblafans.com/rumor-alan-w...tle-13758.html ------------------------------------------------------------- The effort Crytek putting for Cyrsis 2 multiplayer seems to have been a bust at this point with the game crashing out of the Top 20 for Xbox Live for both the 2011 year and recent month. News on the PC platform isn't any better with the peak being about 511 people the last few months. No news on the PS3 version but since it had lower sales than Xbox 360 and PSN recently being down will not be good for Crytek. |

An email sent by Activision to its studios working on Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 shows that Activision was monitoring the situation involving potential leaks of the game and knew people were leaking info about the game.
In the email, Activision did not blame anyone or any studio for the leaks but also praised the hard work of the studios in preparing for the official release. Activision and Infinity Ward ended up acknowledging the leaks as the debut of Modern Warfare 3 but were worried of their official revealing being ruined as a result. Due to how much stuff was already done when the leak occurred, Activision still had enough new stuff to talk about in the official debut for the game. If anything, Activision is upset at Kotaku for leaking out too much game info and worried for a while the hype of the game could have suffered in the long run. Quote:

The game might make an official announcement at E3 2011. 2) After seeing the success of Nintendo's AR stuff, Sony announces it will be adding their own AR tech in upcoming Sony products. Even though Sony says they've been working on the tech since the PS1, its another situation where Sony waits and "copies" after Nintendo does it first. 3) Mega Man Legends 3 Prototype "paid" demo delayed again as Capcom announces the demo will not be launching when eshop launches in June. The whole project itself is in danger of being cancelled due to constant delays and Capcom unwilling to back the project 100%. |

I really think this is because Inafune left Capcom. Megaman is left out of MvC3, Megaman Universe is cancelled and it's only a matter of time before MML3 is cancelled as well. I think I remember reading a while ago that Megaman 10 was the last of that series of MM games. Pretty sure they're trying to put Megaman away. |

Well if Capcom wants to be gay about it perhaps they should sell it to Inafune's new company. They won't. But it's gay.
(And for that matter give DMC to Platinum Games since Itsuno lost his fucking mind) |

Can understand them not wanting to make anymore disc based games, but I'm pretty sure megaman 9 & 10 were both critical and financial successes. Seems stupid to not at least keep making DLC games, as the franchise still has a fairly large fanbase.

I can't find the story about MM10 being the last retro MM but I swear I read that somewhere. I can't remember where exactly. Maybe I'm wrong.
It all still seems suspiciously timed. I can shrug off Megaman not being in MvC3 just after Inafune left but now that everything Megaman related is being killed off, it's odd. |

I have a feeling one of the Mega Men will arrive in 'Hyper MvC3'. If MML3 isn't cancelled by next fall, and with much of Volnutt's assets already built in TvC - I imagine Volnutt would be chosen.
IF MML3 isn't cancelled. And IF there will be a Hyper Marvel vs Capcom 3. |

Nintendo of America almost one time managed to post the Legend of Zelda timeline but when they told Nintendo of Japan of their plan, NOJ told them to stop the project and told them that their timeline was essentially correct.
Supposedly, the timeline has enough "space" to allow new games to enter the series timeline without needing a new story arch and as a way to keep the series active after 25 years using the same basis for the tale. Quote:

Somebody actually went and made a Rock/Paper/Scissors videogame. Doesn't have charm, though. A game like that needs to be self aware.

Playing the demo, Dead or Alive 4 is 180% more fun than Virtua Fighter 5. Should add that to our playlist.

Hardly ever, I suppose. I've just been off the wagon and played Reach's campaign and Firefight modes and training in MvC3. Now I wanna go from that to playing with a lot of people. FFX-2 is fun, though.

Sony posts its 2nd worst annual financial loss ever in the company's history with the 2011 financial report showing around $3.1 billion loss for the entire company while the Playstation division continues to show more losses. The worst part of the news was Sony had been expecting $927 million overall in profits for the year.
The PSN disaster alone cost $171 million and could rise until PSN is completely restored. The majority of this loss will count against the 2012 report and not this year's report. Third party companies have also said the PSN downtime has cost them a few million with Capcom saying it could impact future PSN titles for 2011. The only good news is the total loss could have been as high as $4.4 billion but they were able to get an extension on their deferred taxes for now ($1.3 billion as of now). Quote:
It is unlikely the massive loss will make Sony rethink of the pricing for the NGP due to them wanting at all costs to take over Nintendo and Apple's spots in the handheld/mobile markets. Sony also sort of guaranteed their 2012 report has almost no chance of being good either but did express it should be less of a sting than this year. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thre...=128979&page=1 http://kotaku.com/5804525/the-psn-at...a-ton-of-money ------------------------------------------------------------------ Quick News Round-up: 1) Sony appears ready to kill off the PSP once and for all after revealing the PSP Remasters series of PSP games being ported to the PS3 starting with Monster Hunter 3 from the PSP. 2) The Penguin is expected to play a big role in the game's story for Batman: Arkham City. 3) The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion will be getting a limited re-release as part of the 5 year anniversary of the game. The re-release will include stuff from the Collector's Edition of the game to go along with a discount coupon for the upcoming Elder Scrolls V game. |
