And even without petitions; Reuben Langdon has portrayed Ken in Street Fighter since 2009 in games and anime (and a cameo soundbyte for Wreck-It Ralph). Replaced in SFV. Fucks given; none. Most people won't even notice. He is also basically Dante incarnate, playing the part in voice and motion capture for DMC3-4. There were many fucks given when the series had that terrible reboot actually, but that was for many more reasons than simply him not being Dante. At least he did some new stuff for the special edition. But make no mistake, if Capcom course corrects and makes DMC5 but without Langdon, it would be a riot but hardly one Capcom would budge at.

Clair Redfield in Revelations 2 replaced legacy actress Alyson Court who portrayed her since RE2 all the way up to the first CG movie not long ago. Fucks given; none.

Zero in MvC3 replaced a longtime Zero VO (name I forget this moment) with Ichigo himself Johnny Bosch. Fuck given; none.

Tekken's Heihachi VO since the beginning died sometime before Tekken Tag 2. I'm betting the guys who play Tekken here didn't even know that before I wrote it down this instant.

Let's not pretend this isn't about the FEW voice actors who's contributions to certain characters were paramount. They get to negotiate. And it's always been like that. And even then if a publisher has to, they'll whether the storm of the dreadful Petition and wait exactly 4 months for gamers to forget and pre-order the game.

Sora's VO Hayley Joel since part 1 changed because his voice matured. Fucks given; none.

The Street Fighter Japanese VO cast changes every series. Fucks given; none.

Etc.

Today's News:
1) Some Sony related news:
2) According to Natsume studio, Nintendo has dropped Game Boy game support for the 3DS Virtual Console in favor of shifting focus towards GBA games for future releases. Likely also related to the lack of support from other developers when it came to adding GB games to the 3DS VC.
http://www.destructoid.com/don-t-exp...e-314703.phtml

3) Yacht Club Games announced Shovel Knight's Xbox One retail version has been scrapped due to Microsoft's publishing policies while retailers have forced price hikes for other retail versions due to their policies regarding bargain bin game status. For those with a pre-order, they have requested retailers to honor the original price and not the newly raised price.

@hasney

trying to transfer my old PS3 data which i put onto a USB external hard drive onto a new PS3

old model was "CECHE01" - the original 60gb "phat" one backwards compatible with ps1/ps2

the new one is "CECH-2001A" i think - 120gb "slim"

plugged in my hard drive and it recognizes it, but then says there is no game data on it... can't find any music/pictures data also even though that stuff is on there too

is there any way to get it back or did i just spend a lot of time and money for years trying to specifically avoid this situation for nothing

This is brilliant:


We’d like to apologise to Naughty Dog for a massive mistake we published last month.


On September 30 we published an article titled “Is Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End too formulaic?” based on what we thought was a hands-on session with Uncharted 4 at the Tokyo Game Show.

We didn’t realise it at the time; what we’d played wasn’t Uncharted 4, but the remastered Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, from the recently released Uncharted Collection. We were not aware of this until after the article went live.

As soon as Sony notified us of our mistake we immediately unpublished the article as it was clearly based on one massive error on our part. TGS is busy and obviously the majority of signage isn’t in English, but none of that excuses the fact that we seriously fucked up.

It’s cute to say it’s testament to the skill and beautiful artwork of the Naughty Dog team that we mistook a remastered PS3 game for Uncharted 4. But none of that changes the fact that we have massively misrepresented a game to our readers, fans of the Uncharted series and the industry who read VG247.

The buck stops with the editor of the site, so I’m the one apologising. I should have done it sooner. I am genuinely sorry for this mistake, the misrepresentation of the game and the upset this has caused the development team

Is Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End too formulaic?

Posted By: Adminon:

Uncharted 4 is the first PS4 entry in a series that has traditionally pushed boundaries. Why does it feel so familiar?






I played Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End at Tokyo Game Show this year and it was a tremendous relief to get back to third-person shoot-and-quip after running the gauntlet of Bloodborne: The Old Hunters and Dark Souls 3.

Even playing in Japanese (the voice acting isn’t as good as Nolan North’s) it all felt very familiar. There’s a moment in the demo where you reach the end of a street blocked by a burning vehicle, and Drake mumbles something about not getting through that way. No guidance is offered on where you’re supposed to go next, but the Uncharted veteran in me immediately shimmied a sign post and leapt through a hole in a nearby wall.

Graphics don’t make the game, and even if Uncharted 4 is the most beautiful thing ever to have happened in the history of video games, it’s not new.

The controls came back to me almost immediately, causing me some amount of wincing; I never warmed up to Uncharted’s gunplay, although I understand it has its fans. That said, though the act of putting a reticule (or a grenade) on a baddie is more of a chore than I think it should be, the demo showcased what I do really like about Uncharted’s combat: the way Drake’s squishiness, complicated enemy movements and arena design combine to reward aggressive, tactical movement rather than huddling in cover and waiting for waves to approach.

In one encounter, knocking out a few enemies with stealth gave me a chance to scout the arena, finding cover, choke points and groups of baddies and allowing for a strategic approach or quick tactical response. This is what I most enjoyed during the entire demo, and although I must admit it’s been a while since I played an Uncharted game, to me it felt like this aspect of combat was more prominent than in past titles. It felt like Naughty Dog took some lessons from The Last of Us, which was certainly much less of a shooting gallery than some sequences in the Uncharted series.





It was a short demo, easily completed in my allotted time even though I had to reload several times due to a basic misunderstanding of the initial truck chase sequence. It ended shortly after the combat encounter I mentioned above, just as it seemed like the battle was going to really get interesting and challenging.

I was disappointed by this because it wasn’t until this fight that I’d really started to enjoy myself. Maybe it was that I was playing without North’s charming banter or the context of the broader plot, but I have to admit I was kind of … bored.

Uncharted spends a lot of time being a third-person cover shooter. It’s a pretty good one, sometimes, despite my personal dislike of the basic aiming, but still – you spend a lot of time in combat encounters and a lot of time running between them climbing along linear cliffs, and that’s about it.





Well, no, of course it’s not; for me, Uncharted has always been about visiting amazing places, finding hidden treasures and solving puzzles of ancient technology. I hope, and firmly expect, that the full game is choccas with the kinds of moments that made Uncharted (and Tomb Raider before it) stand so far above rival third-person action games, even when the action gameplay missed the mark.

And yes, the full game will have Nolan North and a story, too, and judging by Naughty Dog’s track history they’ll probably be excellent. All that will help distract you from the fact that you’re playing yet another third-person action adventure and maybe you’re a bit fatigued by them. I am. The spectacle left me unmoved, and despite my confidence that the complete package will overcome that fatigue, I must confess to a little disappointment in the first PS4 Uncharted for not blowing me away when it had the chance.

It blew Pat away, so perhaps I just don’t have the eye to see what makes Uncharted 4 so tremendous graphics-wise. Maybe I’ve been spoiled by playing so many terrific games already this generation. Maybe it’s just that I’ve forgotten what PlayStation 3 games looked like, so the jump to PS4 no longer impresses me.





But graphics don’t make the game, and even if Uncharted 4 is the most beautiful thing ever to have happened in the history of video games, it’s not – it’s not new. This is a complaint that has been levelled a lot this generation, I think, that games are just shinier rather than more interesting, and Uncharted may be in for the same critique. Where the first Uncharted games felt like they were blowing the bar sky high, this one just felt like more of the same.

More of the explosions, jokes and high-octane action only prettier is exactly what many of you want, of course, so hooray! That’s pretty much guaranteed. Me? Not so much. This morning when I threw open the door to greet the dawn I found a courier had wedged the edge of a packet into the hinges yesterday; it was my copy of Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection. “Do I really want to do all this again,” I wondered, “Even if it is incredibly beautiful?”

A pertinent question. Jury’s still out.

Nope. It's kinda funny and emblematic of where games media is at but it's something important to GG. I didn't see any passed around memes or shit like that. This was less an ethical thing than an enthusiast thing. I'd make a bigger deal about this than GG, because most of them still allow shit writing and play shit games.

I explain my distinction between my actual beef with the game industry and GG's main beef before. Slight update, it's led to me being way less active. And good timing, since some new internal faggotry sprouted that's no way worth watching.

For me GG ended with SPJ Airplay in Miami.

6.6% at Ubisoft. That'll get you a seat at the table and make your voice heard.

Wonder if they're making a play at something in the future?

Motion controls for Twilight Princess weren't bad at all. Never had an issue.

Skyward Sword on the other hand, that gave me a hard time at a few points.

Today's News:
1) According to recent reports, a big reason for Uncharted 4's delay to early 2016 was due to a sudden exodus of talent at Naughty Dog starting with management issues over who would control the series. Besides the ouster of the lead writer and director of the series, voice actors for several characters were also fired/left after being upset with the recent studio changes.
http://www.destructoid.com/star-wars...--316536.phtml

2) Ubisoft announced Assassin's Creed Syndicate will require around 40-43 GB of harddrive space for consoles while the Day 1 patch is around 500 MB in size (520MB for Xbox One and 534 MB for PS4).
http://www.destructoid.com/assassin-...h-316457.phtml

4) PS4 and NBA 2k16 were both the highest selling console and game in the US for September based on NPD's monthly sales report. MGSV: Phantom Pain managed to be #3 for the month while overall hardware sales were down compared to September 2014.
http://www.destructoid.com/metal-gea...s-316514.phtml

5) Update to recent Kojima vs Konami news as Konami denies Hideo Kojima was fired from the company and instead is just on a "vacation" for the time being. They claim he's still on the official payroll and there wasn't a party for his final day there.

Today's News:
1) Update to Vivendi buying shares of Ubisoft news as Ubisoft says they will fight any attempt by Vivendi Games to increase their control over the company. Main reason is they do not want a parent company nor like Vivendi's track record when it comes to them having majority power.

2) According to the NPD estimates, EA managed to sell just 8000 copies of NBA Live 16 since its launch compared to NBA 2k16 selling over a million during the same time. Third year in a row EA ended up botching or being unprepared to go against 2K Games NBA series.

Who exactly are Vivendi anyway... I remember when they partnered up with Blizzard for a while and still wasn't even sure what they did then, either

They bought Sierra, then Blizzard which then had the merger with Activision. They sold them up and they became their own company again.

They're a massive media company that own a shitton of companies, like the entirety of Universal Music Group.
