Activision Pays Ex-Modern Warfare Developers $42 Million…But It Gets Complicated
How is this for legal jostling. Activision has been locking horns with Ex-Infinity Ward founders Vince Zampella and Jason West for fucking years now. Yesterday in its latest move, Activision paid out $42 million to Ex-Infinity Ward staffers. That’s a lot of money, right? However ain’t none of it going to Vinny and Jason.
Yep.
The Fourth Prime Evil: Error 37
It’s as if a million nerds cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced.
#Error37 hit top global trending status around 3:40 am.
Someone created this site around 3:50 am.
No one online seems to actually be playing the game an hour after launch, at 4:00 am.
Yup. Diablo III’s out. I’ll see you all in my Error 37 t-shirt at Comic Con this summer.
‘HALO 4’ Box Art! Pieced Together By Fans. Well Done, Folks.
There are all these fucking gimmicks across mediums designed for fans to embark upon to reveal…various nonsense. The latest case of hoops-jumping has brought the world the Halo 4 box art.
‘MINECRAFT” For XBLA Sold 1 Million Copies IN 5 Days; I Still Don’t Understand Game.
Minecraft continues to be a bankable commodity on a litany of devices, including the Xbox Live Arcade Place. It also continues to be a fucking enigma to me.
WATCH: ‘DIABLO IIII’ Prequel Cartoon. ‘Cause It Drops Tomorrow!
Diablo III comes out tomorrow, and the thunder you hear are the legions of fanboys and fangirls diddling their geek-spots. Want to jump in on the pleasure circle? Check out this prequel cartoon for the game directed by Aeon Flux’s Peter Chung and animation studio Titmouse.
So goddamn soon.
The Bane of My Goddamn ‘DIABLO III’ Existence
…No matter how many times it doesn’t work, I just keep clicking on the fucking install and praying a server burps, a CPU farts, something gives and all of a sudden I’m in.
WATCH: ‘BEYOND GOOD & EVIL 2’ Environments Walkthrough. Wru, Game?
Beyond Good & Evil 2 is something of a unicorn in the gaming world. Oft whispered about, nearly never seen. Much like unicorns, the sightings are relegated to drunkards with throbbing cocks and bleary eyes. We hear the tales and roll our eyes, disbelieving. Here’s the latest sighting, but whether or not it holds true is your own to decide.
A video walkthrough of some environments, plus captures after the break.
‘EVE ONLINE’ Developer Sends Its Players To Space; Sort Of. IT’S RAD.
EVE Online is one daunting ass community that I admire from a far. Motherfuckers be trashing each other’s lives with subterfuge on the regular, and that sort of thing would push me over the ledge. I’m already teetering. It ain’t all backstabbing and plotting though, as the community is tight-knit and the developer often respects these dedicated bastards. This week the game’s developer CCP sent its players to space.
Sort of.
Microsoft Patents Controller That IDENTIFIES Who Is Holding It. Futurism ++
In the next future, with the Robot Apocalypse approaching, nowhere will be safe for us. As the robots crunch our skulls and drink our blood (they will convert it into a bio-fuel of sorts), we won’t even be able to play one last game of Halo before the Recknoning. Our own goddamn consoles will be able to identify us, just by us holding our controller.
‘HARLEY QUINN’S REVENGE’ TRAILER Reminds You How Dumb She Is In ‘ARKHAM CITY’
I deplore the design of Harley Quinn in Arkham City and Arkham Asylum. Whatever sort of menace and charm she has in regular old Bats canon is replaced with a slutty Juggalo vibe. The trailer for Ms. Quinn’s upcoming DLC doesn’t do anything to dissuade me of my feelings, but rather just reminds me of what a whorish Hot Topic clown would look like.
Judge for yourself.
