A Mysterious Next-Gen Project Sponsored By Bill Gates, And Other Gaming Secrets

In his LinkedIn profile, a Seattle engineer who joined Activision as vice president of research and development this month states that he is "looking for graphics and systems software developers in the Greater Seattle area," seemingly suggesting that the publisher is establishing an office in Washington. (Presumably this is unrelated to Bungie and Destiny, as Bungie are an independent company with their own proprietary tech base and HR department.)

Bill Gates sponsoring a next gen project? Whoa, this is serious.

mandf4073d ago

His name brings hits. He's retired and not coming out of it just for a console.

matchu_peechu4073d ago

Just because he's reitred doesn't mean ge can't give input to the company that he founded. It's HIS legacy

RuleofOne343 4073d ago

Maybe not for a Console, but it would be cool to see him at the helm of MS again.

dcbronco4073d ago

Bill Gates retired from full-time work, not retired completely. He still works for Microsoft.

Donnieboi4073d ago

No. Ps4 is serious. M$ is strictly just casual now. And Bill Gates doesn't play videogames.

UnholyLight4073d ago

He's the Chairman to Microsoft you idiots. What the hell do you think a FUCKING chairman does in any situation.

Sony fanboyism, the worst I have ever seen.

@matchu_peechu EXACTLY

People, get some logic before you comment. How do you think a business/investors work. What are you all 13years old?

mwjw6964073d ago

I really don't think Bill cares about projects like this. He is so rich at this point that its crazy. He is giving money away to help poor people all over the world. Tech to help people is his big thing right now.

Remember when MS stated that hardly anyone was going to even notice Sony's press event? Yeah that was hilarious. xD So now they have to drag poor old Bill from his nice warm bed to try and disrupt the PS4 love fest that's going on with whispers of awesome next-gen projects and super gaming secrets. lmao So sad.

Jakens4073d ago

I don't like secerts. They suck!

MiloGarret4073d ago

Well, apart from people actively following video gaming news, no one did. Most adults, that is, those paying for video game consoles, have no idea the ps4 has been announced.

Pintheshadows4073d ago

It was on the front page of BBC news and in all the papers so...

TheGamerDood4073d ago

@Pintheshadows

The BBC you say...that's big. :D

Rainstorm814073d ago (Edited 4073d ago )

Believe what you will, I know better than to argue with the deluded inhabitants of this site.

Tito084072d ago (Edited 4072d ago )

You sure about that?? even spanish only news channels, especially Univision were talking about Sony announcing the PS4, looks like you're trying to copy everything Microsoft says like their pet! In Dominican Republic, almost nobody knows what's an Xbox, & knows what is a Playstation, lol! Do not say believe what you will when proof was already proven, you the only delusional for listening to Microsoft execs!!

All they said was that they didnt think the UK would know much about it. Kinda overextended their statement there buddy. They never said the event was gonna go "unnoticed by the majority of people" as you seem to say.

I love your pic of Kaz, I hate your fanboyism though!

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

Used to love this one, but X-Men Legends 1 and 2 will always be my favorites, especially Rise of Apocalypse. Would pay some good money to play it today with online multiplayer, back then I had no way to get a modem

I remember buying them dirt cheap on the PS4 and then a few days later I read they were delisted. I was wondering why the bundle was price so low and got my answer when that happened.

Knightofelemia2h ago(Edited 2h ago)

Sad to say this is one game franchise next to the Xmen that needs a sequel. I use to play the hell out of Xmen Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Was great when my cousin had the OG Xbox play with four other people and then playing online. Great games glad to see it reappear even though I own the discs love the mechanics of this game.

Terry_B2h ago

It got a sequel..but for dumbass #reasons as a switch exclusive.

shinoff21832h ago

It looked so horrible to. They should've kept it similar to the first two.

Asplundh1h ago

Because Nintendo funded it, they did the same for Bayonetta.

Knightofelemia1h ago

I totally forgot about the Switch sequel.

jukins1h ago

Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.

Abnor_Mal1h ago

The first game was the best imo.
