Good to know the Australian Government wastes their money just as well as the American Government.

I dont know why you'd ask the guy trying to pitch a hoax if what he was pitching was a hoax. Would you honestly expect him to say "Oh yeah, its a hoax.."??

AL GUMMIT IS BAD! WAAAARGARBL!

It looks like Nintendo's going to have to develop a " loss leader" philosophy. Kind of funny, since they usually sell inferior products based on margins that are either profitable or neutral.

But then, what can they do here? They made a colossal fuck up with their shiny 3D tech at PSP prices, and are staring down another colossal fuckup, so I guess....

EA could be forced to end their standoff with Valve and Steam and even give Steam some of the once exclusive Origin PC games (ex. Battlefield 3) due to the early estimates of a NCAA players lawsuit reaching a potential $1 billion in damages.

The lawsuit could alter how EA handles the NCAA football franchise with options ranging from excluding schools that had members in the class action lawsuit to unlicensed teams meant to represent certain schools and conferences.

EA is also currently investing heavily into their career modes for coaches and players (ex. Path to Glory, Coaching Carousel) due to those modes not requiring real-world stats and results since those modes are controlled by the user. This would be the backup plan if EA indeed looses the lawsuit and has to pay a large settlement fee.

EA is attempting to counter by claiming NCAA athletes likeness and appearances would count as fair use or protected under the First Amendment as a way to not pay for certain athletes. They are also using the case Jim Brown lost when he tried to sue to get money for his likeness in video games but want it applied in a much broader scale to cover an entire league or system.

Quote:
A cocktail-napkin calculation about what's at stake in former NCAA players' lawsuit against EA Sports arrived at a potential cash-and-prizes value of $1 billion. But as apocalyptic as that total sounds, Electronic Arts doesn't sound too worried.

...

Kidding aside, I'm not sure how to take Rovell's figuring, which gained a lot of traction largely because he is the nation's biggest name covering sports business. The pricetag assumes a few things, not least is that the players prevail in this class action suit. They very well could, but their case against EA Sports depends upon a finding, under Indiana state law, that EA knowingly, willfully or intentionally violated players' rights to publicity.

Quick News Round-Up:

1) Sony confirms the PS Vita will only be released in Japan this Fall with US/Canada and Europe not getting the handheld until early 2012. Sony also made fun of the 3DS by saying the PS Vita won't need an early price drop since they packed it full of features.

2) Team Bondi reveals due to Rockstar refusing to fund any more of their projects, the studio is current looking into being merged or bought out by another publisher. As of now the studio is in discussion with KMM studio (Mad Max, Happy Feet, etc) with the main reason due to a large amount of former Bondi employees work at that company.

3) The Rambo series is coming back to video games as a studio in the UK, Reef Entertainment, announced they have bought the rights to the series and are currently in development of the first game. The studio plans on making a new series of Rambo games with the first scheduled in 2012 for the PC, Xbox 360, and PS3.

Sony debuts a new program for PSN called PlayStation Network PLAY which is set to start on August 23 and run until September 13.

Similar to Microsoft's summer deals, Sony is setting aside 1 game per week to be given special status with each game set at a $15 price tag. As additional incentives, Sony is giving Playstation Plus members a 20% discount on every title while everyone who buys all four titles gets PayDay: The Heist for free on PSN.

Sony is also giving away 1 free piece of DLC per game in the program as a way to counter the lack of exclusives in comparison to Microsoft's yearly sale.

Street Fighter III Third Strike Online Edition starts the program on August 23, followed by Death Spank "The Baconing" on August 30, then BloodRayne: Betrayal on September 6, and Renegade Ops finishes the program on September 13.

Quick News Round-Up:

1) Runic Games announces Tourchlight 2 will not be arriving on Xbox Live Arcade due to the game going over the memory limit for the console and instead will just be released for the PC and MacOS. The company did state a retail disc version could be possible but only until the PC version is finished.

2) According to the Playstation Blog, Twisted Metal has been delayed from its original Fall 2011 release to a new date of early 2012. The series creator had been concerned the game would have been over shawdowed this Fall and pleaded with Sony to push the game back to a less packed 2012 date.

3) The next project from Notch called "Scrolls" could be cancelled after Bethesda's parent company threatened to sue if he continued using the name as the title for the project. ZeniMax Media is arguing Notch is trying to deceive and confuse consumers due to his game's name sounding too similar to their Elder Scrolls series.

It could be canceled because it's called "Scrolls?"

That's almost as retarded as Notch's fanbase.

According to Notch and the news from ZeniMax Media's legal team, the company already paid the fees needed to their lawyers and have a court ready to hear the case should he keep going on with the project.

The bigger news was regardless of if a case does or doesn't occur, the company already wants Notch to repay them for "damages" and other legal fees they have already spent preparing to sue him.

New details on the upcomming Borderlands 2 was officially revealed with the release of Game Informer magazine this month.

Some new changes for the game in comparision to the first game are better animations for non-playable characters, better models for guns to make them appear unqiue instead of too many guns sharing the same appearance, and a more refined skill tree with emphasis on abilities and depth.

Quote:
* Each manufacturer will have their own visual styling/theme. The purpose of this is to be able to easily identify a weapon's manufacturer and quality by simple looking at it. No manufacturers will have the same looking gun.

* NPC's will be fully animated and move around their locations, interacting with objects within their locations

* Gearbox wants to make 4 seating standard on each vehicle

*Class mods and Artifacts will be returning

*BL2's skill tree will maintain the 3 Branch system and have more defined abilities rather than simple stat boosts. It is unknown how many skills will occupy each branch.

*2 Gunzerker Skills were mentioned. One, increases the fire rate of any weapon the longer the trigger is held down. A second, while Dual-wielding, increases accuracy with same class weapons, or doubles damage for different class weapons.
The game is set for release on PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 with an TBA release date for now due to the game being in early development.

Quick News Round-Up:

1) Nintendo is rumored to be adding another 4 games to their "Nintendo Selects" budget line around mid to late August. The rumored titles are Super Paper Mario, Mario Strikers Charged, Punch-Out!!, and Super Mario Galaxy 1.

2) Metroid celebrated its Japanese 25th anniversary over the weekend with fans and people in the indutsry creating tributes for the series. Nintendo confirmed it will not be holding a tribute this year but is rumored to potentially hold one for the US 25th anniversary due to the games traditionally selling better in the West than in Japan.

3) New details concerning Minecraft for XBLA was revealed over the weekend with confirmation of the Xbox 360 version will follow the same development cycle as the PC version. The game will be released and sold in beta form but no mods would be allowed and Xbox Live online structure means slower updates than normally done on the PC version.

Starting this holiday season, Gamefly announces it will be giving all of their subbscribers free access to around 100 PC games in their digital services with no restrictions on how long or how many games can be played or downloaded.

For now, the company will only be including Windows-based games as part of the new service but did state their goal in the near future is to add Mac-based games for the free service. The majority of the initial batch of free games will be older titles currently in stock but the company stressed newer games will be also included for the free plan.

The company is planning to integrate their social components with the online PC games and Shack News services into 1 centralized service.

Also announced was if a subscriber decides to end their account with Gamefly, the games will no longer be playable similar to the model used for the free Playstation Plus members.

1) Team Bondi's merger with KMN began today as the studio sold off a majority of its assets and IP to the new parent company. The studio made the announcement of a merger being needed to keep Team Bondi from closing down after Rockstar cut off all funding and ties with the studio after L.A. Noire.

2) Capcom announces Street Fighter III Third Strike will not have any DRM for the PSN version unlike other Capcom games on the service. The official reason was to ensure offline modes worked for tournament play and the custome rules being possible.

3) One of Sony's main distrbution centers in the UK has been destroyed and set ablaze by rioters tonight by rioters in London. While the plant's destruction will impact the delivery of Sony gaming products in the UK, the company itself says they have other centers ready to pick up the slack for the short term.

As part of the recent attempt to overhaul the entire company, THQ announces it has laid off 200 jobs, closed another 2 studios, and killed off another 2 game series.

THQ's main Australian studio called THQ Brisbane and a developer studio also located in Australia called Blue Tongue were both shut down. Along with some other moves, the total number of people laid off was around 200 this time.

Following the recent news of Red Faction being done as a series, THQ announced both the MX vs ATV and the de Blob series have both been killed off with no intention of reviving either series in the future.

THQ initially started the restructuring last year due to very poor fiscal year and the weak sales of UFC resulting in that series moving from an annual to 2-year schedule.

Quick News Round-Up:

1) Nintendo of America announces it will port all the big unreleased Wii RPGs from Japan as long as interest in the games actually shows up in sales with Europe being the test. The European branch already has the games completed for release while the US branch has already filed copyrights for most of the big Japan-only RPGs.

2) Capcom announces the Mega Man series is not dead with the company even though the recent outlook of the series has weakened a lot internally. The company's PR has stated the recent games cancelled in the series were a tough and unpopular choice but something the company felt needed to be done at the time.

Did De Blob even sell? I'm not trying to be one of those dicks who are like "ha, you only sold three games," but it just didn't seem that well received and I'm too lazy to look for numbers.

The first one sold well on the Wii with about 840,000 copies according to VGChartz's estimate but the 2nd one bombed badly with about 110,000 copies spread between Wii, DS, Xbox 360, and PS3.

I think THQ admitted the big mistake was focusing the development and advertising on the Xbox 360 and PS3 and ignoring the Wii which ended up being a huge blunder. They assumed the game would automatically sell better on the HD consoles (PS3 version included the Move) and for a while there was some confusion if the game would even appear on the Wii based on how they were hying and advertising the game.

In a move similar to the recent news of Blizzard's Diablo III allowing items to be officially traded, Valve announces it is in the process of creating a trading service for Steam that will allow item-based trading.

Unlike Diablo III allowing cash for items, Valve's plan will not allow cash to be used and only items ranging from Team Fortress 2 hats to actual retail games to other in-game collectibles.

The service is being called "Steam Trading beta" and will only allow trades to be done with people on a friend's list. As of now only Team Fortress 2 items use the service but Portal 2 is expected to be included soon.

Also revealed are games received as gifts in Steam can be traded away while potentially the service could expand to any game in a person's collection. However, Valve is restricting potential game trading to only games that were never played or never registered to prevent issues with DRM and other security features.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Quick News Round-Up:

1) OnLive expects to make its UK debut next month following the Eurogamer Expo with the rest of Europe being done between the rest of the year to most of 2012. The company also announced their UK and eventual European services will be integrated with the US services to create a centralized service for OnLive.

2) Ubisoft announces the Assassin's Creed Revelations beta for the time being will be exclusive to the PS3 but hints they could expand it later to include the Xbox 360. The beta will focus on the multiplayer aspect of the upcoming game with 9 characters and 3 maps included for play testing.

3) Today is the last day to register for the 3DS Ambassador program to get the 20 eShop games for free for those who bought the system before the official price drop begins. Starting tomorrow 10 games will be available with the final 10 GBA games released by the end of the year.

Supposedly its a remake of Syndicate from the PC based on a rumor from about a week ago although people have been assuming the game would be next after X-Comm remake was revealed.

Which would be one of the biggest anti-climaxes of all time, especially when they make it an FPS like that rumour.

A new Counter-Strike is currently in development after Valve announced today they are co-working on the new CS project with Hidden Path Entertainment. Hidden Path Entertainment previously worked on Counter Strike Source and is using their experience co-developing the new title.

The game is currently being titled as Counter Strike: Global Operations and will feature a lot of new content such as leaderboards, more mods and characters, new maps along with updated remakes of classic maps, and a 5-on-5 mode using a modified Source Engine.

Unlike previous CS games, CS: GO is being developed as a download-only title with Xbox Live Arcade, PSN, and Steam as the confirmed platforms for the game. The game was also given a release date of early 2012 with the first public showing occurring at Eurogamer Expo 2011 and PAM Prime later this year.

[quote[In a press release, Valve said that "CS: GO features new maps, characters, and weapons and delivers updated versions of the classic CS content (de_dust, etc.). In addition, CS: GO will introduce new gameplay modes, matchmaking, leader boards, and more." [/quote]

Quick News Round-Up:

1) Microsoft admits a glitch involving their Xbox Rewards Program ended up giving away thousands of free points to Rewards members before Microsoft found out and fixed the glitch. The glitch occured during normal MS Points payments but instead of paying out the correct amounts, the glitch caused payments to be sent multiple times although Microsoft has stated the free points will not be taken back.

2) Update on the Ambassador Program for the 3DS reveals the free NES games will intially be exact replicas from their Wii VC versions but with a limited manual. An update later in the year will bring full manuals and wireless multiplayer for certain NES games while the future GBA set will have everything except replacing save states with the in-game save systems.

3) Hideo Kojima confirms the Metal Gear Solid HD set will have more games than just the intially assumed Metal Gear Solid 2, MGS 3, and MGS Peace Walker. The original Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2 games are being included in the set while Japan was confirmed to be missing Peace Walker from the set.
