I would have hoped a hero from For Honor would make it to SoulCalibur considering Ubisoft got dibs before.

If there's one thing cool about this franchise is that Namco can reach out to a lot of outfits to get some cool characters. Ubisoft, Nintendo, Lucasfilm/Lucasarts, to name a few. Don't circle back to a previous developer you worked with before.

Apparently someone who got some kind of insider info from R* themselves is claiming that Grand Theft Auto VI will be set in Vice City and feature a female protagonist. Also that it might not release until 2022.
These are obviously only rumors, so take all that with a grain of salt. |

A year after it's release, Horizon: Zero Dawn has surpassed 7.6 million copies sold.
So much for triple A gaming execs justifying microtransaction heavy multiplayer by stating that single player just can't sell well anymore. Make good single player games, people will buy single player games. |

Done with Microsoft controllers. As a rule, I always get first party accessories, because as long as I've played games they've always been the sturdiest.
Think I only had to replace one 360 controller in the entire lifecycle of that console. I've had to replace the xbox one controller 3 times now. I'm not rough on them, I don't throw them around, but less than a year after buying them, the LB/RB button sticks. One time it just fell the fuck off. Gonna take my chances with third party. Since they're cheap I won't feel bad if they break down. But the Microsoft ones too expensive for me to take any chances on them anymore. |

Sega in general are making dumber decisions that usual. Delaying Yakuza 6 for no good reason until 3 days before God of War and Valkirya Chronicles 4 is releasing in-between Call of Duty and Red Dead 2. Good luck with that.

It did, but a few things happened in the last few months.
Sumo had a presentation leaked saying they're working on a kart game Sumo denied they were working on an All Stars sequel when asked about it Sega when they aired that Sonic Racing teaser said it isn't a sequel to anything The logo looks similar because it just has that sonic circle at the top. The realistic car in the teaser makes me think it will be similar to Blur. |
