Sony is buying ‘Spider-Man’ developer Insomniac Games. Holy first-party exclusives, yo!
Sony is buying Insomniac Games. You may know those motherfuckers as the developer behind Spider-Man and Ratchet & Clank. Two fantastic-ass franchises. What does this shit mean? Well, there’s very little to differentiate Sony and Microsoft these days, outside of their console-exclusives. And, with Sony dominating that avenue this generation, it seems like they ain’t fucking planning to quit dominating anytime soon.
As well, shout out to our own NeoSapian for first letting me know about this!
George R.R. Martin says he can finish the books now that ‘Game of Thrones’ is over and I respect the honesty
GRRM has seen the ending of Game of Thrones along with the rest of us. And I imagine he’s thinking what we are all thinking. There is no way the book series’ ending can be worse than the show. Take a breath, GRRM, and begin hammering that shit out.
Kevin Smith is bringing a ‘He-Man and the Masters of the Universe’ animated series to Netflix. Sure? I guess?
Silent Bob is bringing a motherfucking Masters of the Universe animated series to Netflix. How do I feel about this? Not sure. I love Kevin Smith, the dude. As far as Kevin Smith the creator? It’s been, uh, a bit since he did something for me. Like, we’re talking Chasing Amy.
Taika Waititi met with Ryan Gosling, and which has prompted rumor about him being ‘Thor: Love And Thunder’ villain. Fucking give me this!
I fucking love Ryan Gosling. I fucking love Taika Waititi. I fucking love Thor. Let’s bring all these sexy motherfuckers together. Please?
‘Halo Infinite’ creative director quits, after being reassigned. Ain’t that grand news for the incredibly important title!
Halo Infinite has lost its creative director. After they were reassigned. But, no pressure, Halo Infinite. Microsoft has merely hyped you up as the very important launch title for their next console. No pressure! Things seem to be going swimmingly for you, anyways.
Blizzard warns that ‘WoW: Classic’ realm queues will be starting at 10,000. Have with that fun, friends!
I don’t think I’m going to play WoW: Classic. I could be wrong. But, I think most people who are excited by it are chasing a nostalgia-high that won’t last long when met with the actual content. That said? I certainly won’t be trying it right away. 10,000 person queue? Holy fuck.
‘Birds of Prey’ getting new action sequences courtesy of ‘John Wick’ director. This is ineffably fucking awesome, dudes
As far as I’m concerned, Chad Stahelski is directing the best action sequences right now in American cinema. Like, fuck yeah. So, bringing the dude in to punch-up Birds of Prey? Hachi Machi.
‘Mortal Kombat’ reboot adds ‘Black Mirror’ actor Ludi Lin as Liu Kang. Should we be stoked for this movie yet? Or nah?
I want to be excited for the Mortal Kombat movie. Like, a lot. Are they ever going to top Christopher Lambert as Raiden? Of course not. But the casting for this shit seems to be shaping up so far. First, it was The Raid star Joe Taslim as Sub-Zero. And now? Black Mirror actor Ludi Lin as Liu Kang.
Microsoft ain’t working on a streaming-only Xbox, despite what we all heard this year. Personally? I don’t give a shit.
Friends, the streaming revolution ain’t arriving as soon as we expected. Sure, Google has revealed Stadia. But, neither Sony nor Microsoft is ready to go in dick-first. At least not quite yet. This isn’t a surprise on Sony’s part. However, everyone was readying themselves at E3 for Microsoft’s Big Streaming Reveal. And that shit didn’t happen, and apparently won’t be anytime soon.
