Gravemaster writes: "Game of Thrones and A Song of Ice and Fire is a successful franchise, but it hasn’t had much luck when it comes to video games. Many were released, but only the one from Telltale games received more or less recognition and it was cancelled after one season anyway. Now, we have news of another Game of Thrones game in development."
Krafton CEO : 'It's a team that should be encouraged to create something new and continue their journey.'
Original title : 'We don't think Hi-Fi Rush 2 is going to make us money:' Krafton CEO says Tango Gameworks acquisition is about legacy
I’m wonder if Microsoft fully sold the Hi-Fi Rush IP. They kept the publishing rights of the original game. I don’t even understand why the IP was sold. MS could have had another of its menagerie of studios do another Hi-Fi game, despite such a thing being unlikely.
Our ability to support PlayStation VR has come to an end, and will no longer be supported in updates after March of 2025.
so i assume PSVR2 is not going to take its place. That's a shame as I do think it could benefit from the VR2 improved fidelity and controls.
Well, they did just announce a native PS5 version the other day. Maybe there's hope, but I'm not going to hold my breath.
Never was a Minecraft fan, so no more support isn’t a big deal for me.
What I would like for Xbox and Bethesda to do is update Skyrim VR to be playable on the PSVR2. That’s the only game I want out of the Xbox catalog.
Nintendo and Pokemon Company have filed a lawsuit against Pocketpair Inc., the creators of Palworld, in Tokyo, Japan.
Ye, Custom Robo Arena was a lot better than Pokemon anyways, now that's a game.
Interestingly this comes like a day after they announced they would be at the Tokyo Games Show.
We should all really hope so. Otherwise, this could lead to many issues, as they hold patents on numerous game mechanics. And when I say numerous, I truly mean it. Take this one, for example:
"Abstract: In an example of a game program, a ground boarding target object or an air boarding target object is selected by a selection operation, and a player character is caused to board the selected boarding target object. If the player character aboard the air boarding target object moves toward the ground, the player character is automatically changed to the state where the player character is aboard the ground boarding target object, and brought into the state where the player character can move on the ground."
In plain English, do you guys remember that super amazing mechanic where you surf on the water with a Pokémon, and then when you hit land, it changes to you walking? Yeah, they patented that.
I’ve lost A LOT of respect for Nintendo over the last year.
And patenting game mechanics? To me, that’s scum. No one should be able to patent a mechanic in a game. Imagine if Naughty Dog patented the grapple hook from Uncharted 4 for example. It’s dumb
A patent lawsuit? What Pokémon-related patent could Palworld even be infringing that other similar games haven't? This makes no sense. Feels like Nintendo just trying to throw its weight around to bully competitors, just like they do with emulators even though they're legal.
They can't Innovate their own IP, but when others are breaking the ceiling, they run to the courts, gtfo Nintendo/Gamefreak.
Companies' gatekeeping mechanics behind the patent system to stifle innovation, consumers will always pick the better product, it's not the consumer's fault that Gamefreak has sat on their lazy assess for years.
You can't argue with _subjective_ taste. Some people are going to like games you find crappy. I'm happy not everyone has the same taste.
Rather you like it or not COD has many accessible options and customization that allows for better experience than most other FPS.
The Palworld has been out since January of 2024 and now Nintendo finally decides to do something. I fail to see how Palworld is like Pokemon besides evolving monsters. There are other games out there as well where you can capture and level up monsters. Tales of Symphonia 2 does that capture monsters and have them fight with you and they evolve when levelling up. The two games might share some similarities but what game doesn't borrow from another game. I could understand if Palworld was just a straight on copy clone of Pokemon but it's not. Nintendo is starting to become a pain in the ass. Going full gung ho with rom sites that I can see, purposely taking down pictures from a strategy guide for Mario 64 the strategy guide never came to North America and Nintendo had the pictures taken down. Where does it every stop with Nintendo?
It's because Palworld became a worldwide viral success. Nintendo can't fathom someone else being that popular when it comes to a small monster catching game.
Nintendo is only acting now because they just finished a lawsuit which they won.

Atlus should get on this and sue Nintendo as SMT came out before Pokemon. If Nintendo is going to play this game.
This feels like a scare tactic more than anything else. There's nothing here dozens of other games haven't already done, they're just mad this game showed people how much the pokemon series has been slackin and are desperately trying to make an example out of them.
How's about instead of spending all that money on court fees and lawyers you invest it into making pokémon better?
I think if it was a scare tactic it would have happened when the game came out I have a feeling they've been building a case for a while
It did happen even before the game came out, they tried several tomes before and nothing came of it
The first 3 or 4 seasons were brilliantly written, then the writers ran out of steam.
This "reeks" of mobile game
Wow those graphics are incredible
Maybe that's what Larian is working on? Or even better, an isometric Witcher CRPG like BG3, a man can dream.
