* According to Ubisoft's recent investor's meeting, Far Cry 6 has been delayed from its planned February 18, 2021 release to now a fiscal year 2021-2022 release window which means as late as a March 2022 date. Also being delayed into that time frame is Rainbow Six Quarantine. Official reason due to work issues related to the on-going coronavirus pandemic.
https://www.destructoid.com/stories/...d-608338.phtml * According to a report from Bloomberg, development on Halo Infinite hit another snag recently as the game's lead director dropped out of the project and might also be leaving 343 Industries for a new job within Microsoft. Quote:

I think it's the new expansion that's been in the works before Covid-19 arrived in the world.

Looks like Best Buy is going to have The Last of Us Part II and Final Fantasy VII Remastered for $30, and Persona 5 Royal for $20 for Black Friday week. Will probably pick up TLOU II then, but think I'll wait for FF VII to come to PC so I can play in JP and English.

* For those interested in the Xbox Series S model, almost a third of the console's HDD space will be unusable due to O.S. reasons. Out of around 512GB in total space, only 364GB can actually be used for game related stuff. For some comparison, the install size for this year's Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War game at launch will be around 136GB just for its campaign and zombies modes.
https://www.destructoid.com/stories/...e-609041.phtml * Sega's parent company Sega Sammy Holdings recently announced that they have sold off around 85.1% of their entertainment business to GENDA with their gaming division except for Sega's arcade business unaffected by this sale. Quote:

Is Dragon's Lair the most MF BITCH game ever? I received a medium arcade version in the mail today. It's just the right size to throw through the window.

https://www.destructoid.com/stories/...b-609277.phtml * Based on a recently released PS5 FAQ from Sony, the battery life for the DualSense controller is around the same as the PS4's DualShock controller. Also takes around 3 hours to fully charge a DualSense controller via the PS5. https://www.destructoid.com/stories/...s-609598.phtml * According to a report from Bloomberg, Microsoft has been in recent talks with several Japanese studios regarding plans to purchase at least one of them as part of their aggressive plans to boost the strength of their Xbox Game Studios brand and market presence in Japan. For some reference, Xbox One sales have only been around 0.1% of all consoles sold in Japan during this year. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...-console-clash https://www.destructoid.com/stories/...o-609614.phtml |

Ooof. Sounds like a worse hack job than the one Capcom just had.
Big time gaming outfits should do a check on their security right now. |

LOL - that's too funny. Man, if it turns out to be some Meta-level shit, that'd be even better. I don't think a company would do something "that cool" but that'd be good stuff.

Their games have absolutely been terrible, recently.
Breakpoint is hot garbage, and a massive step down from Wildlands. Meanwhile Watchdogs Legion is still almost unplayable due to constant crashing. |

THQ Nordic recently denied rumors of them currently working on a remake of TimeSplitters 2.
The rumor originated from an Easter egg discovered in their recently released SpellForce 3: Fallen God game involving one of the merchants in the game who talks about being willing to selling a copy of Timesplitters 2 to the player. That led to people speculating THQ Nordic is currently working on a remake of the game since the same merchant also sells other games that THQ Nordic worked on in the past. Quote:
