That seems to explain the situation the best. Completely forgot about them counting games where you are only signed on and not just in terms of mulitplayer games only.

Kojima Productions once asked how people would feel about a Zone of the Enders sequel. Their inbox literally collapsed under the weight of responses.

Hint-hint, Kojima, get to work.

Namco vs Capcom rumored to be in the making right now but with a catch in that its really 2 seperate games instead of one. Namco is making Namco vs Capcom with the Tekken style while Capcom is making Capcom vs Namco with the Street Fighter style. If done correctly it would end up how SNK vs Capcom was a 2 game series since each side made its own version.

Rumored Call of Duty Pay to Play idea rejected by both Infinity Ward and Treyarch for at least the upcoming Black Ops game and current Modern Warfare 2.

Sony investing in using 3D glasses as a way for 2 people to play a split-screen game in a way that each person gets to see the whole screen instead of the traditional bar to split the screen in a game. Only catch is 2 sets of 3D glasses with a 3Dtv is needed and doesn't work beyond 2 players.

I just posted the Capcom news 3 minutes before you did over in the SSFIV thread.

Is it possible to get some kind of news ticker in the game forum? Just have headlines scroll across the top of the VG forum page sort of like:

<!-- HTML codes by Quackit.com -->
<marquee behavior="scroll" direction="left">|Red Dead Redemption: 4 new DLC packs announced.|Game Informer claims upcoming Capcom "versus" Game to be revealed.|</</marquee>
<p><a href="http://www.quackit.com/html/codes/html_marquee_code.cfm"></a></p>

Emperor Smeat 07-20-2010 03:18 AM
Didn't think it would have belonged in the SSFIV thread since it dealt with Namco although it took longer than I wanted to post the 3 new articles since the Sony one took the longest to understand correctly.

A news ticker for the VG board sounds like a great idea.

Drakul 07-20-2010 03:26 AM
I stuck it in the SSFIV thread because Ono, the guy that is in charge of Capcoms version, was saying it was "Bigger than SSFIV" and had posted an image of Ryus face so it looked like it would be another Street Fighter game.
The story was posted in the SSFIV thread so I thought it would be best to put this story there as well until it's officially revealed and then someone will give it is own thread.

It's not a big deal that it was posted in two places. Just means more people will know about it.

Kalyx triaD 07-20-2010 04:46 AM

Fighting fans. General population may find it repulsive even.

Why is, that? Pretty simple, really -- the console players just couldn't hang.

Voodoo PC found Rahul Sood revealed that the prospect was discussed "many many months ago" but that Microsoft killed off the idea due to tests that revealed PC gamers "destroyed" console gamers every single time. According to Sood, "It would be embarrassing to the Xbox team in general had Microsoft launched this initiative."

PC gamers often tout the accuracy of mouse-and-keyboard play as their ace in the hole. Having gotten into PC gaming over the past year, I certainly agree that the accuracy can't be beat, although it does seem that it's accurate to the point of coddling. When you can point and click your headshots, it just doesn't feel like you've earned it.

Sega officially announces that Thor's the next license they're going to embarrass. At least he's looking badass in Capcom's Marvel vs Capcom 3. Expect a Captain America announcement by Sega soon.

Noooooo. God, Marvel needs to get their act together with the licensing. Both for movies and for games.

#BROKEN Hasney 07-22-2010 05:50 PM
They got the C America, Iron Man and Thor licenses at the same time.

Kalyx triaD 07-22-2010 06:07 PM
And most certainly Avengers.

#BROKEN Hasney 07-23-2010 02:12 AM
It would be funny if they forgot that license and had to call the game Iron Man, Captain America and Thor though.

And totally unsurprising of Sega.

Update on Megaman Universe:

Originally Posted by Kotaku
The creator of Mega Man, Keiji Inafune, and producer on the recently announced Mega Man Universe, Akiko Ito, explained—as best as they could—just what the hell this mysterious game is today at Comic-Con.

Previously seen only in teaser trailer form, Mega Man Universe will let you "play as the Mega Man of your dreams," according to Inafune.

The concept of Mega Man Universe, Inafune says, "came from the idea of what Mega Man is and what it means to [different people]." Whether you started playing the series when Mega Man 2 was released or whether you start with the Mega Man X series, Inafune says "Everyone has a unique idea of what Mega Man is."

That may help explain guest appearances from other Capcom games, including Street Fighter's Ryu and Ghosts 'n' Goblins hero Arthur. Other versions of Mega Man will be featured in the game, including that "crappy version of Mega Man from the original cartridge," a character featured in the teaser trailer.

Inafune hopes that the ability to play as different characters outside of the Mega Man mythos will encourage creativity in players and that Universe will "unite Mega Man fans from around the planet to play together in one place." While Capcom didn't show any gameplay during the panel, Inafune said they're working hard to have something to show soon.

The Father of Mega Man ended his Comic-Con presentation with another tease, claiming "You haven't heard the last of the Mega Man announcements out there." Inafune said to expect confirmation of an "oft-requested thing that you guys want."

When fans began shouting for Mega Man Legends 3, Inafune just smiled and said "Thank you."

Mega Man Universe "won't be out for a while," according to Ito, but when it does arrive, it will come to the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade.

I'm more interested in the possible Megaman Legends 3, to be honest. Loved the first one to completion but I got the second one just before I got my PS2 back then so I never actually finished it. They use characters from the series in cross overs and references them so much, I'm amazed we didn't get MML3 years ago.

2KSports reveals the 10 games in NBA 2k11 "Jordan's Challenge" mode. Each game has 3 goals to achieve and majority of Goal 1s is to match or score more than he did in the real game. Only critical game missing is "The Shot" vs Cavs in 1989.

:rofl: from the 69 Point game challenge:
Teammate Stacey King would say later: "I'll always remember this as the night Michael Jordan and I combined to score 70 points." (Jordan scored 69 points in the game)

According to comic writer Geoff Johns, Warner Bros. Interactive is currently working on a videogame adaptation of the DC Comics property, Suicide Squad.

The info, with little detail, was revealed at the "DC Focus: Geoff Johns" panel at Comic-Con this week. What we do know about the game is that it's not going to be for the children -- Johns referred to the game as "hardcore violent."

Drakul 07-25-2010 03:26 PM
I bought Hitman: Blood Money for the 360 a few days ago and I've found a weird...glitch? I don't know what it is.

Playing the level "You Better Watch Out", I threw a corpse over a railing into the water but, the game glitched and I was the one that went over the railing. Now I'm standing under water and walking around like it's dry land.

I walk through some scenery and, under the area where an elevator is, there is a small room with a dirt floor, bare brick walls and a mesh cage like panel above it. Standing in the tiny room was a single black guy with a smile on his face. Every time, it was that same black guy.

He doesn't react to me aiming my guns at him like other NPCs do and, when I killed him and stole his clothes, he had purple underwear on instead of the usual white underwear NPCs wear.

Not sure what it's all about.

A NeoGAF user has painstakingly pieced together details of the canceled Legacy of Kain game, The Dark Prophecy. The game was being developed in 2004 by Eidos and Ritual Entertainment, but fell victim to the axe before it could be completed. Now a huge amount of information has been recovered.

It would seem that The Dark Prophecy's story was due to center around two different time periods, one featuring a tyrannical Kain from the past, one featuring the modern day Kain. The vampire would also regain his transformation power, as first seen in the original Legacy of Kain. The Dire Wolf form would return, along with a Dire White Wolf and a monstrous "beast" form.

A ludicrous amount of art and screens have also been posted, which you can check out below. It looks like it could have been a pretty cool game, and speaking as a fan of the Kain character, I'm sad this wasn't finished. Ah well, maybe Kain will rear his ugly head again someday.

Could Grand Theft Auto be returning to the West Coast for its next big outing? According to recent rumours that's where the series could be heading, with reports outing Hollywood as the series' next backdrop.

vg24/7 is doing the whispering, as well as claiming that Grand Theft Auto V's announcement is coming up fast – and quite possibly within the next few months as the report makes the surprising claim that it could be unveiled alongside the first public airing of Max Payne 3.

We've contacted Rockstar who have, unsurprisingly, remained tight-lipped, refusing to comment on rumour or speculation.

Grand Theft Auto has been to Hollywood before, of course, with San Andreas' LA flavoured Los Santos featuring the area of Vinewood, Rockstar's own take on Tinseltown.

Would a return to San Andreas – or part of it, at least – fulfil your desires for Grand Theft Auto V, or are you, like us, hoping for something a little different from the game? Let us know in the comments below.

t's no secret that Rare has suffered one of gaming's most trafic falls from grace. Once considered the cream of the British developer drop, Rare's eventual subjugation by Microsoft and subsequent software output pretty much killed the company in the eyes of fans. For one major Rare fan site, however, the final nail was only recently hammered into the coffin.

MundoRare, a fan community with a decade-long pedigree, has closed its doors after one last-ditch attempt to instill faith in Rare was shut down ... by Rare itself. MundoRare was planning to shoot a documentary about the studio, for no money at all, to be distributed online and via Xbox Live. The site's staff were becoming jaded with Rare after years of mis-steps, and this documentary was their way of getting the faith back.

Already struggling to justify its own continued existence, MundoRare was in talks about the ambitious project, until Rare pulled the plug, claiming that the documentary wouldn't be "on message." That basically means Rare's corporate attitude killed the last bit of love that a loyal fan community had for the developer.

"Despite its ambitious scope, we felt it was an irresistible offer," explains the site. "In fact, we are still puzzled over their response. It was a risk-free operation to be carried away with all legal safety measures deemed necessary and full of good intentions. It simply makes no sense. It has changed our perception of Rare forever and leaves us with no other option but to end our support for them."

This just goes to show what a corporate-minded factory Rare has apparently become. To turn down a free and loving celebration of its history due to nothing but petty concerns for making sure the company line was towed, is not the kind of pathetic mentality I'd expect from any developer, let alone Rare. I think it's safe to say that any hope of the studio getting back its glory days is well and truly dead. But hey, at least they have a Wii Sports clone in the works, right?

wow, just took a look through their history, and the last game I gave a fuck about was Perfect Dark and its subsequent rerelease. I played Perfect Dark Zero, but it feels wrong and doesn't stand up to shooters that came out only 3 years later.
