Digital Joystiq: "Monday was Microsoft's big E3 presentation and there was a some cool things shown and some really big announcements like the new dashboard, Avatars, playing games on the hard drive and Final Fantasy XIII on the Xbox 360. Before I get to talking about those let me mention was missing from the show."
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
The name "Hewson" carries a special weight for anyone who grew up during the golden age of British computing. As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
To celebrate Tomb Raider: Legend's 20th anniversary, the official channels have shared an early in-development gameplay demo.
Have people forgotten that blogs are not allowed to be submitted?
Doesn't matter if these guys actually owned the 360(hahah) they would know this next week will be packed full of surprizes, hell there are calendars and schedules all over XBL.
over 100 upcoming games are going to be talked about and announced in the next week MSFT still has to announce the two secret exclusives coming out this year.
New exclusives lol. There were none. Just a stolen 3rd party title that is now multi-platform with the PS3 version of the game coming out a lot sooner and nothing more.
Well done, M$. Well done.
Edit: @ below: Unless you have something smart to say don't reply to me. Microsoft DID pay for the 360 version. You DO know Square-Enix haven't even started working on the 360 version right? You DO know they've been working on the PS3 version since 2005 right? You DO know the 360 will be getting a port right? Don't waste my time.
Sounds like a job for Sargent Nikolas Angel and Constable Butterman.
LOLZ!
Lol, but seriously I have become very interested in PJ's halo game. It sounds like it should be an interesting concept and at least we know its still coming. Alan wake on the other hand isn't looking so good. I remember seeing some of the first screen shots from that game and going wow...now i'm just hoping it gets released : )
I think we saw enough halo wars videos last night to satisfy our grunty thirst. At least i did anyways, i didn't need it in the keynote.
To be honest i'm not even taking this article in a bad way because i am happy with what we have now. Bungie's mysterious project should be revealed in a days time when their countdown ends, and with all of the gears and banjo news i'm set for a while now.
