Actually, Capcom will probably announce Mega Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom one day after they release UMVC and the only change will be this costume.

And despite the name, Mega Man still won't be in the game. The tears are tasty.

The developers of Bodycount, Guildford Studio, will be shut down by Codemasters after very poor repetition from critics and early sales from consumers for the game with just 20,000 copies sold on Xbox 360 and PS3 combined.
While Guildford Studio was an internal studio of Codemasters, the company still decided to go ahead with the closure by announcing a consultation phase lasting 30 days to give enough time for the remaining employees enough time to relocate to other studios owned by the company. The closure was also rumored to be occurring regardless of the results from Bodycount due to the rough development period with the game resulting in at least 3 high-ranking employees leaving for other companies and an understaffed workforce during critical parts of the development process. Codemasters also announced as a result they will be focusing a lot more on their Warwickshire HQ studio which are currently responsible for the racing series done by the company. http://www.screwattack.com/news/bodycount-dev-gets-cut -------------------------------------------------------------------- Quick News Round-Up: 1) Microsoft reveals Windows 8 will have built-in Xbox Live services with the upcoming dashboard update to the Xbox 360 meant as the inital step in integrating Live into their Xbox and Windows properities. Microsoft also announced the Games for Windows service will be dropped but the tools will be reworked to make it easier to put Live features into PC games. 2) Activision announces the PS3 will be getting an exclusive collector's edition of GoldenEye 007 reloaded titled as the "Double O" edition. The bundle includes the game, the PS Move controller, navigation controller, PS Eye camera, and Sharp Shooter "zapper" to go along with a free DLC character of Hugo Drax who comes with the Moonraker guns. 3) Konami confirms rumors of the PS2 series Zone of the Enders games will be getting the HD remake treatment and will arrive for the PS3 and Vita. Besides the upgraded visuals, Kojima did mention the games will have some extras but did not reveal them during the press confrence at the Tokyo Game Show. |

Make a semi-sequel to a game nobody cared about, and nobody will care. Learned lesson is learned.

Pretty pissed at MS right now. I'm going through a pretty tough period, moneywise, and I turned off auto renewal for my year long gold membership.
It actually came up as a big box when I turned my 360 on a month ago, asking if I wanted to autorenew when my 2011 membership ran out, I selected 'no'. Woke up today, checked to see if the over night downloads had finished and I'm still gold with my next renew date of September 2012. Now I have to find £31 today or go into the red. WTF was the point in asking me if I'd like autorenewal if they were just going to do it anyway?! |

I know. I don't mind remakes if they're of games on mug inferior tech and they're completely redrawn, but the PS2 HD remakes that don't add multiplayer are a joke. You can make them better looking in PCSX2 right now rather than re-buy the games.
It's like rebuying films you already own on blu-ray, but with a much bigger price tag. |

Namco revealed some new details involving the Tekken games currently in development at the Tokyo Game Show.
Tekken Hybrid will be a Playstation 3 exclusive and has a release date of Winter 2011. The game was also revealed to be just an HD remake of previous PS2 games in the series while also containing the arcade version of Tekken Tag Tournament 2: Prologue and the animated film released over the summer.

http://www.screwattack.com/news/info...okyo-game-show --------------------------------------------------------------- Quick News Round-Up: 1) Mentioned in the PS Vita thread, the new terms of service for PSN removes the ability for users to sue Sony with class action lawsuits without the permission from Sony to go along with a clause that mentions any trial possible can not involve a jury and must be settled quickly. Sony is even going as far as removing the ability to use PSN should a user disagree with the new changes in the terms. 2) Twisted Pixel announces the DLC pack released for The Gunstringer on Kinect will be free for everyone starting next week after only Gold members appeared to get the DLC for free initially. The confusion occured when people assumed only Gold members would get the DLC for free while everyone else had to pay even though the studio mentioned before the DLC would be free for everyone when released. 3) Based on some details from a recent job posting, Lucas Arts is in the process of creating a new game in the Star Wars franchise involving the X-Wing. According to the posting, the studio is looking for programmers with experience in flight sims and arieal shooters which hints a X-Wing vs Tie Fighters game or a new game in the Battlefront series could be in development. |

It actually isn't if you can believe that. But your entire article is on the right side and the pictures are clumped together and it's a big mess.

New details about the upcoming Mario Kart 7 for the 3DS was revealed at the Tokyo Game Show with the main stuff being old courses will return, 2 new characters making their debut as racers in the series, and 8 player racers for both local and online races.
Some of the old or classic race courses will return but this time will have some changes such as underwater sections to take advantage of the new gameplay features of the game. Some other details revealed include: Quote:
http://www.screwattack.com/news/upda...t-mario-kart-7 Interview with the main producer for the game: http://www.screwattack.com/trailers/...per-interview/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Quick News Round-Up: 1) Based on a leak, Valve will be bringing Steam support to the Xbox brand with Valve currently finishing up working on the integration needed for Steam. Valve has said in the past any decision for Steam on the Xbox would be up to Microsoft's decision but Xbox Live would also need to allow the requirements Valve requests in order to provide the service. 2) The creators of Dead Space, Visceral Games, are in a bad financial situtation as the company has been reported of preparing to shut down their Australian studio and would leave the company with just 2 studios remaining (Canada and California). The closure of the Australian studio would impact the Dead Space series due to the Australian studio was the main studio used to develop the games, especially Dead Space 2. 3) Capcom reveals the Street Fighter II Collection is avaliable for purchase on the iPhone and for the price of $3.99, the set comes with SF II, SF II Championship Edition, and SF II Hyper Fighting. The company also said the titles will be supported on the Capcom Arcade App to allow 10 free play tokens as a way to "demo" the games before deciding on the purchase or not. |

I played both demos last night. I enjoyed PES a lot more. It looks and feels way more realistic. FIFA 12 isn't much different than 11. And it still feels fake.

In an interview with gameindustry.biz, Crytek shows off more excitement regarding the upcoming Wii U with their main praises revolving around the processing and graphical power of the system.
The company revealed they already have one of their branches working with the current Wii U dev kits and while they are only testing around with stuff on the kits and not actual game development, the development team said they were happy with all the stuff they could do and be possible with the early kits. Quote:
http://www.screwattack.com/news/cryt...l-capabilities ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quick News Round-Up: 1) Epic Games announces Shadow Complex 2 is almost finished but the company is waiting for a publisher to pick up the project to help out with the funding needed for polishing up and marketing of the game. While Microsoft published the first game, the recent rift between both companies and Microsoft focusing on advertsing Gears of War 3 is the main reason why the game doesn't have a publisher right now. 2) Netflix announces they are expanding their rental service to include video games in the near future and will only include Wii, PS3, and Xbox 360 games intially. The move was done after years of the company saying they had no interest in game rentals while also realizing how profitable and popular Gamefly's rental service became as their main competitor. 3) After only releasing five issues of the official World of Warcraft magazine, Future US announces the magazine will be shut down or out of print starting next month. One key reason for the sudden drop was the dispute involving Blizzard wanting total control of the publishing content and licensing issues but Future US stated they will honor requests for either a refund or 6 free WoW pets as options for subscribers. |

Yup. It probably won't be the $140 for 32gb it is in Japan, but it'll likely be 3 figures.
Hoping the encryption is cracked and 3rd party sticks come out. Even if the games eventually get announced for it, it is a huge barrier to actually buying one. |

I almost miss Krazy Ken Kurtagi (I think it was), the guy who's designed all their home consoles before he was let go. Sure, because of him, the PS3 was ridiculously expensive at launch, but it had loads of USB ports, a card reader that read every standard format and a hard drive slot that used any laptop hard drive.
From things I read after he left, higher ups away from the Computer Entertainment division were pushing for it to use 360 style custom hard drives and only read memory sticks for other media options. He had enough sway at that point where he could fight them off so his design wasn't compromised. |

So they can collect royalties on everything ever. Full control. Cocks.
Steam has just convinced me to go back to being a filthy pirate. My internet is down and playing games would be great right now. You can only start Steam in offline mode if you have an internet connection these days. Locked out of 190 games because the publishers don't trust me. If I pirated them all, they'd be fine. |
