Twitter and the hashtag #1ReasonWhy is currently be used by female employees and others in regards to exposing the level of sexism and other similar issues within the video game industry.
While the majority of the stories being exposed involve women in general, men who have tried to get the issue fixed have also revealed stories involving threats they received from their bosses. Besides the usual cases of workplace harassment and discrimination, female character design was also revealed to be another sore problem. People were either ridiculed or ignored when they tried to suggest changes to female characters beyond their stereotypical roles and appearances. Stories involving harassment and groping during conventions were meant to show how this problem is not solely a workplace issue and goes deeper involving the gaming community as a whole. Quote:

There's a counter-message movement to that as well, which is more inspirational. Both are pretty cool and informative.

Dragon Age III currently rumored to have been delayed till 2014 with the reason due to the decision to make the game only for next gen consoles.
The source of the rumor comes from an update on Linkedin by one of the lead designers for the game which stated plans for the game have been changed as the cause for the new delay. It also reveals EA will be using their EA Shanghai studio to help out Bioware with the development of the game at least for level design. Quote:

- The guys who made Super Meat Boy are assholes - I would like to play Fez but probably won't due to hating Xbox - Soulja Boy reviewing Braid is still hilarious |

A recent Assassin's Creed survey sent by Ubisoft might be teasing or suggesting the next Assassin's Creed game could be getting a new co-op mode or have several characters returning.
According to Game Liberty who claims to have been sent a copy of the survey, several questions dealt with the possibility in regards to Desmond, Connor, and the American setting returning for the next game. Also teased was the possibility of a new multiplayer co-op mode being added and the potential of the series going in a new direction with Uncharted 3 as the inspiration. http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...out-next-game/ ____________________________________________________________ Daily Recap: * Nintendo announces a massive restructuring process meant to expand and reorganize the company as a whole will start next month and last for most of 2013. http://www.destructoid.com/nintendo-...3-239444.phtml * Sony reveals their Black Friday sales data and while the PS3 ranked #2 for most sold (525,000), the PS Vita was dead last with only 160,000 units sold during the week. In terms of combined numbers, Sony was ranked last after Nintendo (1.25 million) and Microsoft (750,000). http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...sales-numbers/ * According to God of War film screenwriters, Sony has given permission for the story/lore of Kratos to be drastically changed so it doesn't feel like a "Clash of the Titans" clone. http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...-kratos-story/ http://www.destructoid.com/sony-open...e-239473.phtml |

Never played Assassins Creed, it's been on my list of games to play for a while, but it's starting to look like a big mess with how they've forced it into being an annual game. You can't be Uncharted 3 in 12 months or less.

A recent patent discovered from Sony hints the company might be once again considering a "detachable" controller in the future.
The patent was filed in 2011 under the name of "Hybrid Separable Motion Controller" and combines both the PS Move wand and DualShock controller into a single design. The orbs from the wand would be on top of each piece while the rest of the controller would follow the Dualshock design for both appearance and layout. A previous patent which had a similar idea in the past involved just a detachable Dualshock controller. http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...ve-controller/ http://www.destructoid.com/sony-pate...o-239576.phtml _______________________________________________________________ Daily Recap: * Sony announces sign-ups for God of War: Accession beta starts today with the beta itself starting on December 7. http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...-ups-now-live/ http://www.destructoid.com/go-sign-u...a-239571.phtml * While THQ dropped the project, Guilermo del Toro announces he managed to find a new publisher for his inSane project. http://www.screwattack.com/news/insa...nt-will-resume * Iwata explains the origins of the word "HAL" from HAL Laboratories (Kirby series) isn't actually from 2001: A Space Odyssey film and instead comes as a joke done to IBM. HAL from the film was supposedly named due to IBM withdrawing support during the film's production. http://www.destructoid.com/iwata-cas...y-239567.phtml |

Reading the most batshit insane rumours about E3 reveals of the new consoles. It's shockingly from a reliable source (guy that leaked Kingdom Hearts HD and Castlevania), but bar some things that are obvious, he either has to be smoking crack or Sony/MS are. LET'S TAKE A GANDER AT SOME HIGHLIGHTS
http://dualpixels.com/2012/11/29/rum...wear-next-gen/ Quote:
Full 3D Pokemon for the 3DS is about 2 years away and will have a whole new Pokemon type, the first since Gold/Silver. Also, Nintendo apparently has a big name non-Nintendo exclusive announced next year that will cause "shocks". NOW LET'S TAKE A TRIP INTO CRAZYTOWN Quote:
Slightly more believable is them using Gakai for backwards compatability which is like OnLive in terms of streaming games. This would mean that PS1, PS2 and PS3 games would be playable on the device and "any Playstation certified device". That would be pretty nice, internet speeds allowing. Quote:

If true though, it seems MS have obtained the same dodgy crack as Sony. Quote:
It's likely to be all shit, but I really hope it's all shit. Entertaining read none the less. |

The future status of the Killer Instinct series is currently in doubt due to US Patent and Trademark Office denying Microsoft's recent attempts to renew the Killer Instinct trademark.
The patent office originally denied the first request on September 17 with an updated filling from November 29 once again denying the trademark. The official reason given by the patent office was “likelihood of confusion” due to the categories the trademark was filed for conflict with one hold by Fox Television Studios. The issue is due to one of the categories the trademark falls under called "entertainment services" is the same category tv shows fall under. It turns out Fox owns the trademark for the name from a 2005 filing which trumps the recent filing by Microsoft. The patent office also claimed since games can be based off of tv shows and movies, the trademark by Fox is stronger than Microsoft's. http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...us-government/ ___________________________________________________________ Daily Recap: * Former LucasArts employee denies Btattlefront 3 was ever 99% done and instead blames Free Radical for completely mismanaging the entire project. http://www.screwattack.com/news/from...-stuff-just-bs * Teaser trailer for PS3 exclusive "The Last of Us" was recently released with the full trailer to debut during this year's Spike VGA show. http://www.egmnow.com/articles/plays...es-the-teaser/ |

Well... is this unknown Fox property based off a game? And also how did they get it when KI the game predates whatever Fox has? By a decade, no doubt?

Splash Damage, the company behind two of my favorite games of all time (Return to Castle Wolfenstein Enemy Territory and Quake Wars) are coming back with a new free to play shooter called "Dirty Bomb".
Their last release, Brink, was pretty dissapointing, so hopefully them returning to the free to play model that made them popular will result in a good game. Any other SD fans here? http://www.pcgamer.com/2012/11/29/sp...ltiplayer-fps/ |
