God of War is going to be a big one, for sure. Wouldn't be surprised to see another Uncharted either even though they said that was done in the past. Gonna go ahead and say Final Fantasy 16 is about to be unveiled as an exclusive as well, at least on a timed basis. FF16 prob getting unveiled tomorrow.

Sony baited MS with that last press conference where they showed off Horizon 2 and Ratchet and Clank and all that. MS probably thought they finally were going to have a decent showing for their exclusives event and steal Sonys thunder, and while I am def hyped for Fable and Forza is always good, Halo kinda underwhelmed. Now Sony will go for the throat tomorrow.

If you are looking to get a PS5 at launch you may want to watch that presser tomorrow afternoon btw. Have a feeling they are going to announce preorders and pricing tomorrow and you will prob have to be quick to snatch one up before all the asshole reseller bots lock a ton of them down.

No it's because it's likely PS4's version of Spider-Man, same voice actor and everything. Spidey has appeared on Xbox and Nintendo plenty of times even with Sony's movie deal which is only a movie deal.

Yeah as far as I know, Sony doesn’t own merchandising rights beyond movie related products. That’s all on Marvel’s side.

But Sony pretty much has Marvel by the balls. With Cap and Iron Man gone, the MCU’s biggest draw is spider-man. At least until we get X-men which is looking like a long ways off. So if Sony wants spider-man to be an exclusive, Marvel isn’t really in a position to say no.

I'd LOVE to have another good X-Men game.


I'd also love another great Metroid game. With other games already released, Metroid would probably make me buy Nintendo again.

* Street Fighter series producer Yoshinori Ono recently announced that he has left Capcom after a 30 year career with the company.
https://twitter.com/Yoshi_OnoChin/st...30444672163842

* In a recent internal email, WarnerMedia CEO Jason Kilar announced that the company is currently in the process of restructuring with layoffs expected and Warner Bros Interactive will not be getting sold off despite recent rumors.

* For those with a Twitch Prime subscription, Amazon officially changed the service's name to Prime Gaming earlier today with the only notable big change being Amazon dropping the requirement of needing a Twitch account to use the service.

Microsoft sets November as a launch date for the XBox Series X.

But if you're thinking about getting Halo Infinite as a launch title, think again. It's been pushed into 2021.

Besides Sony getting exclusive content for Playstation versions, Square Enix's Marvel's Avengers game is also currently rumored to contain timed exclusive content that will be locked into specific retailers and internet providers.

Quote:

The content was first spotted by Redditor Smoove4254, before finding its way to Twitter via Avengers news-hound @PlayAvenger. The leaks suggest that Marvel's Avengers will be offering exclusive skins, gear, emotes, nameplates and other cosmetic items to users of the aforementioned network providers. Further reports reveal that chewing gum company 5Gum will also be offering its customers in-game items - for example an emote for Ms. Marvel that sees her... chewing gum, obviously.

It should be noted that all of the above is yet to be officially announced by Square Enix. Verizon had previously confirmed, however, that it would be offering in-game content on a "timed exclusivity" basis, so it would at least seem that these extra items will be made available to all players at a later date.

Jesus the way this game is going they may as well have as breaks in between the gameplay. Like there’s been cross marketing in games for years, but this Avengers game is approaching ludicrousness.

That's a new level of wank right there. Never planned on buying the game, but god damn.


It's like a disturbing trend man. Like there are going to start being lobbyists from ISP's and shit who say "Hey, we will help fund your game if you give our subscribers early, exclusive stuff".


What a fucking mess of a game that one sounds like.

Based on a recent investor's meeting, Capcom is currently undecided on if they will enact a $10 price hike for their next gen games.

At the moment, only one major publisher, Ubisoft, has committed to remaining at $60 for their net gen games at least for the launch period.

Capcom's response is aligned with the timidity most major publishers are showing on this topic. Nearly everyone falls into the "monitoring industry trends" camp publicly, unwilling to follow Take-Two's lead and become the second face of rising consumer costs. Ubisoft, however, has committed to a $60 price tag -- at least for this holiday season.

Turbo-Graphix mini has a bunch of games from its Japanese counterpart, the PC Engine. I might look into getting one.

Epic Games recently sued Apple over issues regarding the status of Fortnite and V-Bucks purchases at the App Store.

The main issue revolves around Epic Games has been in a growing dispute with Apple and Google regarding the current revenue splits and fees for purchases made at their digital stores.

Epic recently took their dispute to a new level by issuing a permanent price cut for V-Bucks but only for those who purchase it directly from Epic and not from the App Store of Play Store.

Epic's antics resulted in Apple pulling Fornite from their App Store over claims of Epic violating their digital store's rules.

That then led to Epic filing a lawsuit against Apple claiming Apple committed violations of the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890, the California Cartwright Act, and the California Unfair Competition Law.

The Complaint alleges violations of the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890, the California Cartwright Act, and the California Unfair Competition Law. The lawsuit was clearly drafted well in advance, as Epic obviously anticipated Apple removing Fortnite ...

Fortnite's V-Bucks just got a little cheaper across the board. Epic has permanently discounted the Fortnite currency by 20 percent. Previously, $1 used to get you 100 V-Bucks; now you get the same amount for 80 cents.

The impetus behind this price reduction seems like it's driven entirely by Epic's need to throw a giant "Fuck You" at Apple and Google. Apple's App Store and Google's Play Store's policies have long been in Epic founder Tim Sweeney's crosshairs, as he takes issue with the revenue splits they take. They'll demand up to 30 percent of revenue just for processing payments and being included inside those mobile ecosystems.

Today, Epic launched its own direct payment system on mobile versions of Fortnite and it's awfully compelling to any prospective V-Bucks buyer ...

Anyone who opts for paying Epic directly will see that 20 percent savings; anyone who doesn't is paying more than the new permanent price. The choice is pretty obvious.

Epic has dragged Apple and Google into a high-risk game of chicken, seeing if the tech giants will delist the world's most popular video game for running afoul of their store rules. There are even higher stakes than just Fortnite, as Apple is under fire in both the United States and European Union for possible antitrust violations. Slapping down Fortnite might just bolster the argument for regulatory agencies that Apple is engaged in anti-competitive business practices.

It worked. Apple has removed Fortnite from the App Store. In a statement to The Verge, Apple says its hand was forced by Epic because of "express intent of violating the App Store guidelines regarding in-app payments that apply to every developer who sells digital goods or services." Apple adds that it's willing to work with Epic to resolve these issues, but it's not making a special exception for Epic.

What happens next will be fascinating. Sweeney and Epic don't even want special exception. They have a fundamental problem with the forced revenue splits from Apple and Google. They want unilateral reform. That's especially true in the case of Apple, where Sweeney is particularly frustrated by the "closed ecosystem" approach.

This is all a stunt to make Apple and Google look bad. Not many companies would be willing to sacrifice its cash cow to make that statement. For now, Fortnite can't be found on iOS devices. That's exactly the outcome Epic wanted.

So host the mobile downloads on their own site. Sucks for Apple users.... but they've had a walled garden since forever anyway.


Epic will be fine. Devices that already had it installed are still installed.

The fucking gall of Epic to try and turn Fortnite players against apple with their little video and hashtag. As if Epic isn't just as much of a greedy, soulless corporation that gives no actual fucks for their user base.

Nintendo is currently rumored to be working on a remaster of Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword for the Switch based on a recent retailer leak from Amazon's UK branch.

Although there's no launch date on display in the image below, in the description underneath this section of the listing there appears to be a placeholder release date of "1 Jan. 2030" - you can also apparently pre-order the game for £69.99.

Surprisingly, this isn't the first time we've heard about Skyward Sword taking flight on the Switch. Back in November 2018, there was a rumour about it, and not long after this, a Nintendo representative shot it down.

As pointed out by Nintendo Life contributor, Chris Scullion, next year is The Legend of Zelda's 35th anniversary. Earlier this week trademarks supposedly tied to the Zelda series also appeared online.

* Sony and developer Sucker Punch announced a new co-op mode for Ghost of Tsushima will be arriving this fall. This mode is called Ghost of Tsushima: Legends and will feature its own story for 2 player co-op mode and a new survival mode for 4-player sessions.
https://www.destructoid.com/stories/...l-600782.phtml

* Nintendo announced that a new Indies World Direct episode will be airing tomorrow starting at 12PM EST. This episode was also announced to be around 20 minutes long and will focus on upcoming games for the Switch.
https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/...44648748240896

* For those interested in the PC version of Spelunky 2, the developer of the game stated that it will be released "a few weeks" after the PS4 version's release of September 15th. Official reason for the different date is due to needing more time to optimize the game for PC.

* For those who own or are interested in an Oculus Rift VR headset, the company announced starting this October a Facebook account will be required in order to use their headsets. They also announced that existing Oculus accounts will remain active until 2022 and then will need to be merged with a Faceook account in order for all features to remain usable. Upcoming headsets will require a merged account at launch.

All of these r3dakt3d developments are perfectly aligned with the rumors that have run rampant for months now. WB Montreal is making Gotham Knights, which is a game based on the extended Batman family. It's expected that there will be more playable characters than just Batman. The likes of Robin, Batwoman, and Nightwing are all said to support the Caped Crusader.

Assuming Gotham Knights is getting a proper reveal tomorrow, that'll be two in less than a week for WB. Gotham Knights will be announced and then elaborated upon at DC FanDome on Saturday, August 22; Rocksteady's Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will be revealed later on August 22 at FanDome. Lots of crime-busting and crime-propagating coming from DC soon.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. That's going to cause some screaming down the road. I mean, Xbox Live and PS Plus is one thing. Online access, free games, sales discounts, etc.

But having to sign up for Facebook. One of the almighty gods of social media. Putting your name "out there" is something to really consider. Might even push some people to consider Sony or HTC's VR rigs if they're feeling the itch to try VR.

Worst part is Facebook doesn't even hide the fact this is solely being done just to get more personal data from users for their ad algorithms.

Can’t imagine enough people own an Oculus Rift, that this is going to have any kind of impact. Still scummy,but not all that surprising.

That new Batman game is also rumored to potentially revolve around The Court of the Owls. Hope it's true.

That would be really cool, although given the track record of Batman games, I'm nervous about how it will turn out now that Rocksteady has moved on to Suicide Squad, which I'm really interested in.

Or are they scrambling and prepping for damage control after the toxic workplace report hit the 'net this afternoon?

Apparently both the lead narrative designer and creative director of upcoming Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines game were abruptly fired from developer Hardsuit Labs studios.

Seems the reason is due to minority owner Paradox Interactive wasn't happy with the direction and development of the game since they were the only one from management to speak publicly about the firings at the moment.

Just listened to this and is has me hyped:

People just forget that those basic looking ramps and staged encounter areas are cery important to how Halo plays, which H5 learned the hard way. Anyway:

- That grapple hook is god awful. Does not belong at all.
- Either sprint is in or out, don't have it be this sluggish jog trying to make everyone happy you just piss everyone off. OG Halo fans, our demographic, needs to realize you're not getting kids to play a shooter with no sprint. Unless you're prepared for cult success rather than mega success. And we know which one Microsoft wants for Halo.
- I guess you can equip items on both hands? The grapple took up a slot pertaining to the hand using it.
- Looks like ADS is gone and only certain weapons can zoom in like older Halo.

I don't really play Halo for story anymore after H4 and H5's back to back character assassination spree so I'm displeased that the delay certainly means I won't see multiplayer for another year maybe.

Yeah, I was really digging the vibe! Admitedly looked a little sketchy pretty much all over, but by no means warranting the backlash.

It's not uncommon for me to argue that Halo 5 has the best feeling multiplayer of Halo to date. Something about sprinting, sliding, dashing and doing cheeky hovers makes me feel like a super hero.
