Danish film studio Nordisk Film went and bought Avalanche Studios for about $103 million dollars.
They're known for the Just Cause series and Mad Max. And they're working on Rage 2 with ID Software. https://www.playstationtrophies.org/...disk-Film.html |

In a bit of eyebrow-raising news, the Korean gaming board has given a rating to a potential Borderlands Remaster for PC/PS4/XB1.
I know we've only recently had a discussion on all the games in the series, but this would include also all the GotY DLCs along with the main game of BL1, and if this proves true, I'd definitely grab it. I get the feeling that if something does come of this news, we could potentially see a release on or around the 10th anniversary of the game next year or maybe we'll see it included as part of a special pre-order bonus with BL3. I anxiously await further developments. |

Rumor mill working big time as the next game in the Assassins' Creed series will be called Assassin's Creed Odyssey.
It'll be set in Greece. You have the choice between a male or female protagonist. However I don't know if this will be like Syndicate or not. And, for the first time in the series, you have dialogue options. Finally, the game should be on store shelves before March 31st, 2019. http://www.ign.com/articles/2018/05/...ortedly-leaked |

Sega confirmed the rumors of a new Sonic racing game being in development after pretty much giving up on trying to keep it a secret due to the amount of leaks recently.

MS wanting a cant miss exclusive makes sense. TLoU was a big turning point for a lot of people at the end of the last cycle.
I dont think crackdown has any hope of being THAT good but the franchise is great. |

No, gaming is not gonna be stream based in the next generation or the one after that. These are the thoughts of somebody ignorant of the importance of feedback. Nobody is playing street fighter or a shooter through streaming. Not unless the input lag is non-existent.
I really hate videogame futurists. They all talk mad, fantasy shit that never happens. The future tends to be common sense advances that don't disrupt how people play games now. |

Uhg EA announces game streaming service. Everyone talking about having streaming services will negate the need for expensive hardware. I'm sitting here like....all the different subs you'll have plus the cost of higher speed internet to support streaming in high quality will quickly surpass the cost of the console/PC. Plus when they go out of business or decide to turn off streaming of whatever game, you lose it forever.
F. That. Should have known the retards at EA would do this. |

Yep. That is the future, not this streaming shit. Paying a fee for a whole library of games will become extremely attractive by next generation. Particularly when one of the big three makes a 1st party game exclusive to the service. If it's a big enough game, that's a wrap on conventional 1st party releases.

Could be doable but really depends on how long the next gen lasts. Even then its probably at least 2 gens away instead of 1.
If the next gen has 2 upgrade phases and is more hybrid-like, that would create the time and bridge needed for the gen afterwards to be download-only. The download-only gen then bridges into the cloud/streaming gen. At that point, you'd be into the 2030s and enough time has passed for all the groundwork to be done and ready. |

For those interested or own Detroit: Become Human, an upcoming update pretty much renders the game's ending moot.
Main reason its being done is due to a lot of players have been asking for a very specific request and Quantic Dream caved in even though it messes up the vision and goal they had for the game's story. Small warning as the link contains spoilers to the game's ending for those who haven't finished it yet. https://www.destructoid.com/detroit-...s-508014.phtml |
