Game News Thread

Microsoft laid off all of the AAAA workers a few months ago so we had to add a few more As.

Did you forget about the generation-defining game Skull and Bones by our most beloved and impressive devs at Ubisoft?

Well I have never owned chickens so maybe there are two people you’re thinking of. But I DID record my playthrough of TLOU2 when that first came out way back when, yes!
Also aww wow, I guess that’s me! Hi! Lotta chickens out there I can see how you’d be confused :relieved_face::wink:

:open_mouth: it is you! I thought it was but didn’t want to guess :smile: yours remains the only playthrough I watched of that too, I didn’t even need to play it because I experienced it with you :slight_smile:

AAAAA? Why stop at 5 As? It’s GTA VI, so it’s gotta be AAAAAA!

In all fairness, I agree, that GTA IV will most likely be in a league of its own. But these monikers are getting ridiculous.

Halloween The Game News.

  • Gun Media is just a supporting financer of the project to help Illfonic get to where they wanna be.

  • Single Player Campaign will tell the story of the events of Halloween 1978 and what happens after Michael is shot from the balcony at the end of the film.

  • Campaign is confirmed to be you playing as Michael, by extension it also makes you into the perfect incarnation of evil familiarizing you with the systems used in multiplayer aswell.

  • Loomis narrates the campaign.

  • Game will exclusively be set in 1978 at launch, with the post launch leaving an open door for sequels with full franchise backing. Example is first few content updates might be set in 1978 but later we might get Halloween 4 or 5 content which takes place in the 80’s.

  • Trancas biggest barrier before landing on a developer was ensuring that the game will have a substantial offering, not follow traditional asymmetrical horror games, and have longevity post launch.

  • Multiplayer is sorta PVPVE with yet to be specified mechanics so people can bully Michael during encounters to circumvent something like Jason griefing and t-bagging like in F13.

If this is their way to retroactively kill the idea of Palworld, then I’d be shocked if that’s even legal.

Can you sue someone retroactively for a patent if it was already created before a company had ownership of it? :thinking:
(No idea what’s going on with Palworld these days, but I do know it removed/changed the way you “summon/captured” its characters a while ago…)

That isn’t how patents work, they can’t be applied retroactively. In fact patent offices scrupulously check their existing patents and products before rendering a patent and dismiss them if there is to much of an existing patent.

I would say this is a cynical attempt by Nintendo to deliberately expand the scope of their patent to block competing systems using the same principle. Palworld probably won’t be directly impacted because since it already exists but the series might be impacted.

Palworld isn’t a live service game

I thought it was, either way my point stands. Palworld as a game won’t be impacted but making a second one would be harder if they had to circumnavigate the patent.

Paradox will never learn, and neither will the fanbase since they’ll keep buying these DLCs regardless. The vicious circle of life…

Not official news so maybe it doesn’t go here, but the fan made remake of Rayman 3, two years in the making by one person, is now available.

Congratulations on them for a new job making Rayman games for half a decade then being folded in to the Rsinbow 6 Siege dev team.

We didn’t need it, but now I want it. I still have the original on the PS2, but this is good for people to whom I say “Hey try [x game]”
“Didn’t that come out on a console that’s obsolete now?”
