Bungie's World Domination Begins

Videogames often infiltrate the news, but rarely in a case as awesome as this. BBC News, usually a steady hand at journalism, have made a small blunder that will make gamers smile.

No BlizzCon in 2012

Posted Jan 25, 2012 at 1:01PM EST by Listed in: MMORPG Tags: diablo, starcraft. blizzcon, World of Warcraft, WoW

Blizzard confirms that its annual convention will not occur this year due to a packed schedule.

BlizzCon is a yearly celebration of the games in the Blizzard universe. Fans come from all around the world to hang out with fellow WoW, Diablo and StarCraft players, as well as to get the scoop on upcoming game and expansion releases. The convention provides Blizzard fans with a way to connect to developers, and last year’s convention hosted over 26,000 players.

Sadly for fans of Blizzard games, it looks like BlizzCon 2012 won’t be happening. Citing a “jam-packed” schedule, Blizzard has elected to focus instead on its 2012 Battle.net World Championship, which will take place somewhere in Asia. This event will play host to the WoW Arena World Championship as well as the StarCraft II World Championship. Blizzard is also working on a full slate of games, adding to their crunch for time.

Here’s the official statement from Battle.net:

“We’re excited to be showcasing Blizzard eSports on a truly global stage this year. We're also heavily focused on getting Diablo III, Mists of Pandaria, and Heart of the Swarm into players’ hands as soon as possible. In light of our jam-packed schedule, we’ve decided to hold the next BlizzCon in 2013.”

This news is definitely a disappointment to fans that have enjoyed BlizzCon in the past – especially those that can afford to road trip to California but perhaps not an international flight to some Asian locale. It’s also a curious reasoning for canceling the popular event, considering that Blizz has always had games in development during previous BlizzCons. Let the wild speculation begin!

What do you think of the decision to cancel BlizzCon?

Senate Postpones SOPA Vote

Posted Jan 16, 2012 at 3:53PM EST by Listed in: PS3 Tags: pipa, sopa

Mounting resistance to the controversial bill seems to have finally made an impression.

We’ve been talking a lot about SOPA over the last few days – as the bill grew ever closer to a vote, a growing number of websites and game developers started standing up in opposition. This opposition finally caught the attention of the United States Congress, and has resulted in the temporary delay of an official vote.

Darrell Issa, chairman of the house oversight and reform committee, noted that Eric Cantor (majority leader) confirmed the vote on SOPA would not take place until there is a consensus on the wording of the bill. This report hit simultaneously with stories noting that DNS blocking, one of the most controversial elements of SOPA, has been removed from the current draft.

For now, the SOPA hearing is postponed indefinitely. But the issue won’t be settled until the bill is either discarded, or voted down. As long as it hangs in the air, there’s a potential of its passage. The Obama administration issued a statement in opposition to the bill (though soft), and internet blackout events are still scheduled to occur on the 18th.

Issa summed the issue up nicely:

“The voice of the internet community has been heard. Much more education for members of Congress about the workings of the internet is essential if anti-piracy legislation is to be workable and achieve broad appeal.”

Remember, you can contact your Congressional representative and let them know how you feel via the Electronic Frontier Foundation

Nintendo Direct Event Scheduled for Tonight

Posted Dec 26, 2011 at 12:38PM EST by Listed in: Nintendo 3DS Tags: nintendo 3ds, nintendo direct, wii u

Curious about the future of the Wii and Nintendo 3DS? Tune in tonight for details.

Later this evening, Nintendo will be holding one of their “Nintendo Direct” conferences for investors and other fans of the brand. Tonight’s update will focus largely on the Nintendo 3DS, though there are rumors that some Wii U information may also be forthcoming. There will also be updates regarding the future of the Wii, which has seen a steady decline in titles since Nintendo announced the Wii U.

The event is set to take place on Tuesday morning in Japan, putting it at 10pm EST or 7pm PST here in the States. Like other Nintendo Direct events, tonight’s will be broadcast on the Nintendo Ustream page – in Japanese. So if you want to tune in, you may want to find a translator. That, or wait for a translated version to pop up a few hours later.

Nintendo likely has a lot to talk about, with 3DS sales suddenly skyrocketing and the brand looking better than ever despite continuing to post financial losses. Tonight’s presentation will probably be designed to instill confidence in the company and let fans and shareholders know that good stuff is coming.

Will you watch the Nintendo Direct event?

Want to know what games are hitting shelves with the Vita when it drops here in the U.S.? Check out our list!

Today has been an interesting day for Vita news. First, we got an idea of how expensive the device’s memory cards were actually going to be (read: not very). Now, we have a confirmed and official list of every game that will be available at launch. And the list is pretty long, especially when compared to some other launches.

Some of the games are likely not going to be great, but the presence of Uncharted and Hot Shots Golf are enough to ensure Sony sells at least a few thousand devices. And hey, who doesn’t love Katamari?

Here’s your launch list:

SCEA Launch Day Titles

Escape Plan (PSN Only)

Hot Shots Golf: World Invitational

Hustle Kings (PSN Only)

Little Deviants

ModNation Racers: Road Trip

Super StarDust Delta (PSN only)

UNCHARTED: Golden Abyss

wipEout 2048

Third Party Publisher Launch Day Titles

Rayman Origins

Shinobido 2: Revenge of Zen

Tales of Space: Mutant Blobs (PSN Only)

Touch My Katamari

That’s not too shabby for an a brand new system. There’s plenty to choose from in the launch day listings – which game are you going to buy?

Tony Hawk HD Coming Summer 2012

Posted Dec 12, 2011 at 5:03PM EST by Listed in: PS3 Tags: pro skater, thps, Tony Hawk, VGA

The remastered classic has a new developer and is headed your way sooner rather than later.

The original Tony Hawk Pro Skater started a revolution in the world of sports gaming. It had great mechanics, broad appeal, and one of the best soundtracks ever stuck in a digital product. Unfortunately, the series went downhill fast, with most fans agreeing that the free-roaming, random environment builds of later titles never really lived up to the promise of the original.

Birdman seems to have realized that fans really just want a return to form, and announced at this weekend’s VGAs that a remastered version of the original game will be hitting digital shelves sometime soon. As of today, we have a few more details regarding what players can expect. First, remastered levels from THPS1 and 2, plus a bunch of new skaters.

The game is being developed by the company behind Tony Hawk Ride, Robomodo. But before you get your pitchforks out and storm the nearest GameStop, you should know that Tony Hawk HD is being developed with traditional controls in mind – you’ll play with your PlayStation or Xbox controller.

Tony Hawk Pro Skater HD is slated for a summer 2012 release, the perfect time for a skating game.

Hopefully the game manages to recapture the pure fun of the original. I still remember my friends and I hitting a few rounds of Pro Skater before heading out to get our boards confiscated by angry cops. Those were the days.

Aaaand a quick search for the original Pro Skater indicates that it came out 12 years ago. Man, today I feel old.

Xfinity and Verizon Services Miss Xbox Metro Launch

Posted Dec 5, 2011 at 2:10PM EST by Listed in: Xbox 360 Tags: HBO, metro, UFC, Verizon, xbox dashboard, xfinity

The new dashboard for the Xbox 360 launches this week, but it may be missing a few of its most anticipated features.

If you were excited about bringing your favorite television shows to your Xbox dashboard, you may be in for a bit of bad news this morning, as it looks like some of the bigger partners for Microsoft’ big re-launch aren’t quite ready to send their services to the console. Xfinity, Verizon, HBO and the UFC are all reporting that their services will unfortunately be unavailable at launch, with a planned “early 2012” release.

It’s definitely a bummer for anyone that was expecting to merge their two services together, but for the most part this delay probably doesn’t affect most Xbox users. It does cause one to wonder whether Microsoft is actually ready to push the update live, or if they’re just rushing it out so they can meet the goal they set for themselves.

LA Noire creator to make Whore of the Orient

Posted Dec 1, 2011 at 8:15AM EST by Harrison E Listed in: Xbox 360, PS3 Tags: brendan mcnamara, george miller, kmm studios, la noire, mad max, whore of the orient

LA Noire creator to make Whore of the Orient

Brendan McNamara is heading to the Orient.

LA Noire is still one of my favourite games of the year. Seemlessly blending the classic point and click adventure style with a brand new stylised action and some amazing graphics, which all play into the gameplay carefully. Sure the game does have a few drawbacks, but not enough for Brendan McNamara to stop working.

His next game is going to be called Whore of the Orient, which may or may not go through title changes before the game even starts to be developed. The game will be developed with KMM, an Australia studio owned by George Miller, who you may know as the director of those films about penguins or about Mel Gibson in a post-apocalyptic wasteland.

Speaking of Mad Max, McNamara will also be developing a game based on the fourth film, which has been in development hell for over a decade, with the subtitle Fury Road. Miller says he is finally doing the film "after years of resisting the impulse" and also three family friendly films that have grossed over a hundred million dollars worldwide. Miller has gone on the record saying "Multi-platform, that's the thing", explaining "Create once; publish many times, on multiple platforms. You create a world and then you go in to all the different platforms - your iPhone, your iPad, on the net," I doubt he's talking about ARG, but merely just multiple ports.

But that's not the only reason, recently in Australia, our culture and arts funding just went through the roof. Whilst it isn't helping to fund theatre all too much, the future is in video games and KMM's co-found Doug Mitchell couldn't be more pleased to immediately go forward with the two games, thanks to "government support."

Mitchell also noted that whilst Australia doesn't have a big games sector, the "potential in the video games sector is massive," he says. He also notes that it's a 60 billion dollar industry that's fast-tracking towards 90 billion. He compares the film industry with costs being around 170 million with more to advertise it and the fact games can be made at 10% of the budget and marketing is often word of mouth.

Mitchell mentioned LA Noire saying that they sold 3 million units with $135 million net revenue, nice to see to being able to use that dead horse after everyone's beaten it to death. Whilst there's not much info on the Orient, McNamara spoke with Eurogamer last month saying "It's pretty interesting. It's one of the great untold stories of the twentieth century," he said. "So I think it'll be good."

Ubisoft thinks this will help people start working on new FPS titles - especially ones that might have levels that look mildly inappropriate and phallic.

Saturday Mash-Up: The Hottest QJ Posts of the Week

Posted Nov 26, 2011 at 8:00AM EST by Listed in: Xbox 360 Tags: battlefield 3, call of duty, EB Games, GameStop, Infinity Ward

If you’ve been busy with holiday preparations or fighting off dragon invasions, here are some things you may have missed.

It’s been a somewhat busy week for the games industry, though most of the news has to do with titles that have already been released rather than things that are about to come out. We’re fast approaching the end of the crazy rush of releases and people seem to be settling down into their gaming habits.

Modern Warfare, Battlefield and Skyrim dominated the news this week, and plenty of commenters stormed our posts to let their voices heard. So without further ado, here’s your:

Infinity Ward Swings the MW3 Banhammer

Modern Warfare 3 has been out since the 8th, and lead creative strategist Robert Bowling has confirmed that Infinity Ward has already banned over 1,600 players for cheating, hacking and glitching. Most people seem pretty happy about Infinity Ward’s commitment to stopping cheating, but some commenters can’t resist another chance to take pot shots at the Call of Duty franchise.

PS3 Battlefield 3 Owners Getting Battlefield 1943

Sony’s Jack Tretton announced that the PS3 version of Battlefield 3 would come packed with Battlefield 1943, but that bonus failed to materialize. Some gamers filed a class action lawsuit against EA (which I still don’t understand), and faced with intense media pressure and the ire of Battlefield fans everywhere, the developer caved. So, free Battlefield 1943 for everyone!

EB Games Canada Dropping Pre-Owned Games

There is a rumor floating around the retail games industry that EB Games, a subsidiary of GameStop, is planning to mix its used and new games together. The familiar yellow “used” tags will be replaced with white “used” tags, so while the games will still be noted as used products, the similar labels may confuse less savvy gamers. We’re still waiting to see how this story plays out.

Skyrim Map Contains all of Tamriel

One gamer’s realization that the entire landmass of Tamriel is built into the map for Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim led us to wonder why exactly the content was included. Some venture it’s intended as a resource for modders, some think it’s just to add realism to the environment, and some think it’s for potential DLC content down the road. What do you think?

Square Enix: We Want a Final Fantasy Every Year

Square Enix was apparently unhappy with the development time of Final Fantasy XIII and is hoping to up their release schedule to something more along the lines of Assassin’s Creed or Call of Duty. There seem to be people on both sides of this particular post, some excited about more frequent Final Fantasy games, others concerned about the quality loss that may occur as the result of such a cramped development schedule.

So there are your most commented posts of the week. And, as is now tradition, it’s time to award one lucky reader the prestigious “Comment of the Week” award. This week’s award goes to Harv_ironlung, for his very thoughtful and poignant response to Keith Vaz: Ban Call of Duty:

Keith vaz is twat

Well said, Harv_ironlung. I don’t think I could have said it any better myself.

If you’ve been busy with holiday preparations or fighting off dragon invasions, here are some things you may have missed.
