Today's News:
1) Xbox division boss Phil Spencer teases his plans involving Rare are to push the studio away from being a Kinect-focused developer in favor of something similar to their pre-Kinect/Microsoft era period.
http://www.screwattack.com/news/xbox...diverse-studio

2) A new WWE game called WWE SuperCard which is a card battle based game was recently released for mobile devices.
http://www.giantbomb.com/videos/wwe-...ame/2300-9341/

3) Ubisoft states besides current gen consoles and PC, The Crew will also arrive for the Xbox 360 but not for the PS3 and Wii U. The official reason is related to how the game was developed and the Xbox 360 being the closest in terms of online infrastructure.
http://www.destructoid.com/ubisoft-r...0-279608.phtml

4) According to developer Supermassive Games, upcoming PS4 horror game Until Dawn is planned to have around several hundred different endings and thousands of storyline branches due to the game's Butterfly Effect feature.

I checked out the Ubisoft games on sale in the eShop. Why are they selling games that are 20gb in size for a console that comes no bigger than 32gb? By the time I buy extra memory, I'd be cheaper and quicker buying a physical disc!

First one was good, but it was basically just "climb shit, shoot dudes" repeated ad nauseam. Second one not only did everything better but added a lot more variety to the adventure. That's the game that really made Uncharted a major franchise.

The creators admited they build the entire game around set pieces. I think that says something about the game if they think up exciting set pieces and try to stitch them togethor with the gameplay inbetween.

Not saying you're wrong to love it or hate it. I just can't see it's appeal. TR never really appealed to me either back when I tried it out.

Well it helps that the set pieces are freaking awesome, and the gameplay inbetween is really fun.

If you get the chance, give the second one a try. I wasn't that enthralled with the first one either, but I really loved the second. Yet to try the third.

Yea 2 is the best.

1 was a good game, but 2 was a great game. 3 was pretty close to being as good as 2.

Gotta admit though, favorite uncharted moment is playing the 'drugged' sequence in Uncharted 3 on a 3DTV. It is fucking mental. Makes you feel like you're on an acid trip kinda.

1. Maybe it's the Bond game we all deserve?

2. Betcha if I play my Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon, Cena will still "overcome the odds" and beat it. Whilst no selling the entire time.

Yu-gi-oh reference. I should run while I got the chance.

The people who made Rare awesome all left. So no point thinking about their classics, let alone Bond who's tied to Activision last I checked. They didn't even do Killer Instinct.

Don't think Activision has the license anymore and if they still do, need a new studio since Eurocom got shut down a few years ago.

Signed up for EA Access last night a.k.a. made a deal with The Devil.

No complaints so far. Downloaded Fifa, Madden, Battlefield 4 and Peggle. That is the totality of the vault thus far but more than enough to keep me busy for a while.

EA Access is a decent deal, though the library's thin now. Eventually I think it's gonna change things. Puts Sony's shitty system on notice.

Today's News:
1) The original purpose for banner ads on the Xbox 360 user interface was to simply help promote XBLA games from getting lost in the shuffle according to the person responsible for the idea. He recently apologized for how his idea evolved into most of the interface being cluttered in ads.
http://www.destructoid.com/the-guy-r...y-279676.phtml

2) EA announces both Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare and Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning are currently available to play for free on Origin for a limited time as part of Origin's Game Time program.
http://www.destructoid.com/play-gard...e-279674.phtml

3) The upcoming Share Play feature for the PS4 was revealed to only allow up to 1 hour of online play per session. This feature allows people with a copy of a game to let others without one the ability to play together online.
http://www.destructoid.com/sony-s-up...r-279662.phtml

4) Ubisoft states they are not ruling out the possibility of Assassin's Creed Rogue getting a PS4 and Xbox One port in the near future.

They better put Rogue on PS4/XB1. After playing AC4 on PS3/4, I want my pirating to be next-gen, thanks. I wish they would go ahead and let people know, though. Don't want to end up getting it on an old system and then 2 days later find out it's coming to the new ones.

That's a tactic a few developers take, like R* with GTA V. It will release on 360 etc and get a souped up version on new consoles 6 months later.

No multiplayer in either of this year's Assassins' Creed games.

Looks like Ubisoft finally got the message. It was fun in the beginning......

I'm against their suppression, advocation, and hand waving of several Social Justice Warrior figures and "controversies". Have been for some time. This Quinn cunt really did me a favor and gave me that out. Kotaku Is absolute shit at this point. I was very patient.

Not liking Kotaku is fine.

"Cunt" is kind of overboard.

We've had this discussion before, right?

I'm not gonna police my own vocabulary. She's a bitch. Kotaku's Stephen Truchillo or whatever is a coward dick, too, covering for her and his writer. But yeah, cunt. It's very contextual.

He's covering for her and his writer. He waved off the accusations with a shitty article without even a bolded headline, basically saying "nuh uhh". It was callous. I would amend myself and say he's covering his writer really, since his dick puts Kotaku's already dubious rep in the shitter. InternetAristocrat breaks that element down in his last vid.

No idea who Quinn is because Kotaku UK has a mostly different staff but the only issue I have with Kotaku is the comment section. I'm not going to fly into a rage about inequality but the other day a female reporter for Kotaku did some barely VG related news story and the comments were ridiculing her. The story exactly above was just as barely VG related but by a male reporter and the commenters didn't mind at all.
I've also seen various types of bigotry run wild in the comments of various articles but what really gets to me is the seething rage anytime some female reporter brings up anything even vaguely pro female.
Article: Maybe women should wear more clothes in game.
Response: Argh, shut up you feminist dyke! I hate you! Die, feminazi!
Me:

Don't think I see sexism as a uniquely male thing. The diet Coke ads are incredibly sexist towards guys, in my opinion. It's just Kotaku comments and the internet as a whole take it to an Olypmic level.

I never got what the issue was with "Social Justice Warrior" hate. It's like there's some internet rule against actually wanting to defend someone or raise a certain point about certain situations.

Just did a search and see the Quinn in question is alleged to have slept with a Kotaku reporter for positive press for an indie game. That's it? I mean, yeah, that's unprofessional behaviour if it's true but it's not something to make a song and dance about.

If we catch Miyamoto in bed with Major Nelson, THEN we have a scandal.

You probably should. The game industry is being accused of sexism. Using the C word does nothing but prove the critics right.

Strongly thinking of retiring my Drakulbites Gamertag. So if a name you don't recognise pops up sometime soon, it's probably me.

I spent far too long trying to put in new names to find they're either taken or a single letter too big. Finally got two in mind that fit. If they are taken, after having already tried 50 others that were taken, I may scream.

You probably should. The game industry is being accused of sexism. Using the C word does nothing but prove the critics right.
It doesn't prove them right, unless the message is people say cunt time to time. I am not sexist, you guys know that. I don't care if some random SJW doesn't.

I really want to know what's so bad about standing up for someone or something. Being called a white knight or social justice warrior as if it's a bad thing is just bizarre.
