Trademark law is funny. Many of Apple's victories over Samsung relied on patents that were recently revoked due to prior art, some instances in which Apple demonstrably knew about them.

Trademarking despite prior existence rarely stops large companies.

You know those batshit insane rumors about the new consoles I posted on the previous page? Here's a tester to see if they're real. This was revealed by the same source for the NoA conference today:

Quote:
– Fire Emblem is projected to show up around January in the US with
the Japanese Blue Special Edition to go on sale with it.

– Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon will come out in February. At the same
time the Black 3DS XL will also come out and there will be a Black 3DS
XL Dark Moon version with the game bundled in.

– Animal Crossing planned as a Spring/Summer Title between March and May.

– Most of the Nintendo 3DS and 3DS XL colors, including 3DS XL
Purple, will be out in America by the end of 2013.

– A few eShop first party @ 3rd party Wii U titles will be announced
for the launch window and a good mix of first and third party for
spring which ends at the Nintendo E3 show for the rest of 2013.

– No idea if the Pokemon 3DS XL’s are coming, even though NoA wants
them to for Mystery Dungeon that is all up to the Pokemon Company USA
to decide.

Ignore it all. Also said that there would be a 3DS+ next year with a retractable second controller with 2 sticks and all the buttons. Brilliant.

Nintendo has explained one audience for the Wii Mini in Canada.

Quote:
There's a consumer out there, there are gamers who have not bought a Wii yet, and there are gamers who have a Wii and want a second one for the cottage, or the chalet, or whatever, who actually don't need the online functionality. So we basically stripped all the online functionality out, and the end result is cost savings for the person buying Wii Mini at $99.

"When you look at that price, and you look at what you get for it, we're pretty confident that that's the right tipping point to get Wii Mini noticed
FUCKING CANADIANS AND THEIR WII-LESS CHALETS

In an interview with Game Informer, the general manager from BioWare Edmonton and Montreal studios reveals some new details in regards to Dragon Age III: Inquisition.

According to Aaryn Flynn, the game will be influenced and borrowing several aspects from Bethesda's Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

Quote:
“You can’t look at a game like Skyrim and not think about how impressive what they’ve accomplished is—or [think] that’s an interesting new direction or that there was something that didn’t work well for them that we could take in a new direction,” Flynn says. “So, we’re always influenced by these games, especially in a relatively tight-knit genre like RPGs.”
One of the things from Skyrim which was teased to be included for Dragon Age III was a larger focus on exploration to fit with the plans to expand the game's world in terms of both size and scope.

Quote:
“In terms of where I think RPGs are going, I think we have to get back to more exploration in our games,” Flynn notes. “I think that’s not just because of some of the shortcomings in Dragon Age 2, but because there’s a heritage there, something we used to a lot of in games like Baldur’s Gate and Neverwinter Nights, where exploration was one of the key themes. We’ve gotten away from that with Dragon Age and Mass Effect. We want to get back to those themes. Not only because they seem powerful, but they are things that fans want. They want to know more about these worlds we are crafting, and they want to chart their own course through it.”
The game is still teased for a late 2013 release date although was rumored recently to be pushed back till 2014 for next gen consoles.

Any other SD fans here?

I was incredibly stoked about Brink, bought it, played it for about a month and sold it. Highly disappointed. The concept is awesome, but the execution failed.

Gamers are falling into a "CoD Sickness" - meaning if the FPS game you are playing isn't CoD or related, quite a few "gamers" won't even bother

I would say Brink was a 6/10 for me, personally. I would like to see a follow up that has been heavily tweaked.... I think it can work.

Agreed, it would have worked I think.

The GH7 bit though, with removing all the instruments and what not, baaaaaaaaaaad idea.


Expert + drums on GH Metallica = good times

The co-developer of Far Cry 3, Ubisoft Massive, is currently working on a "Triple A" Online RPG which would be released for the PS4 and next Xbox console.

A LinkedIn profile from an employee at the studio hinted the company is currently in the process of developing an Online RPG for next gen consoles. The update also revealed the company is currently hiring for a Lead Level Designer and multiple studios might be involved in the creation of the game.

Quote:
The job ad reads: “Massive is looking for an experienced Lead Level Designer to join an international team working on a AAA Online RPG. In this position you will lead a Level Design team in building the best gameplay experiences ever conceived. For any game. Ever.”
Based on previous rumors of Ubisoft planning another reboot for the Prince of Persia series in the future, it is possible this Online RPG could end up being that game or possibly even a future Assassin's Creed game since the studio did help develop last year's Assassin's Creed: Revelations.

According to recent job postings, Rockstar is working on a brand new "cutting-edge" engine which will debut for next-gen platforms.

The company is currently hiring engine programmers with the purpose to develop an engine that can be flexible enough to work on a variety of systems which includes the current gen systems as well.

Quote:
The job posting is for a “core engine programmer”, someone who will be tasked with working on multiple aspects of engine development, designing and implementing low- and mid-level systems, improving engine architecture and evolving an existing codebase, and diagnosing game performance and stability issues (and, in turn, helping to develop solutions to those problems).

“You need at least three years commercial games experience and a minimum of one published title on PS3 or Xbox 360 to demonstrate your skills,” the job posting reads. “This is an exciting opportunity to develop cutting-edge architectures and high performance systems for current and next-gen platforms.”

According to an interview with Kotaku during Spike's VGA show, Valve confirms Big Picture Mode for Steam was the start of their attempt to compete with console makers for the "living room" market.

Gabe Newell mentioned how he believes in the future PC makers will start the push to manufacture PCs who's purpose is just for living room usage with Valve themselves planning on making their own PC hardware. He also believes Steam would end up playing a huge role for these devices especially now that Big Picture Mode is available.

While Valve favors the open system design traditional PCs provide, he did admit that in order to succeed in the living room market these new PCs would have to be closed systems just like consoles.

Quote:
"Well certainly our hardware will be a very controlled environment, If you want more flexibility, you can always buy a more general purpose PC. For people who want a more turnkey solution, that's what some people are really gonna want for their living room. The nice thing about a PC is a lot of different people can try out different solutions, and customers can find the ones that work best for them."

New rumors in regards to the next Xbox and PS4 as both are rumored to have recently changed their codenames while Microsoft still having problems getting quality chips to be made.

In terms of the next Xbox, Microsoft is rumored to have dropped the "Durango" codename in favor of a “Kryptos” codename. The console would be using an AMD chip called “Oban" but similar to last time, chip production issues have resulted in the majority of the early chip batches to be tossed due to failing reliability and quality inspections. Other details include a potential Fall 2013 release window but could be pushed back to a Spring 2014 window.

In terms of the PS4, the "Orbis" codename was never an actual codename for the PS4 and instead its real name has always been "Thebes." Similar to Microsoft, the PS4 will be using an AMD chip but it won't be the "Oban" chip. Other details include mass production of these chips will not occur until after the next Xbox is released which would mean a Spring/Fall 2014 release window.
