Konami is promising an E3 press conference to remember boasting surprise guests and revolutionary announcements:
Featuring a variety of high-profile speakers for all major platforms, Konami's Press Conference will highlight games across all genres targeted towards players of all age groups and skill levels. Konami will feature groundbreaking announcements that you will truly not want to miss.
Playing a game can help improve your mood according to a recent study. Who knew!
It’s a form of escape like other entertainment just more interactive than most. Didn’t need a study to know this
Pretty obvious to me, my videogames are sometimes the main reason why I still havent put a bullet in my skull
It has been announced that Ubisoft's Executive Committee and Board of Directors will launch an investigation and review of the company.
Is Ubisoft board going to investigate themselves since they're the ones telling Ubisoft how to do less for more and push MTX over taking longer to make better games w/o them?
Breaking news:
Board investigation concludes wasteful spending on employee compensation packages responsible for financial woes. Live service a net positive for company.
It's amazing how out of touch with gamers they've been for over a decade, and its only gotten worse.
The biggest innovation that I saw in that time was their "indie" arm w titles like Child of Light, and in VR with Eagle Flight and Transference. Loved all 3 of these titles. I want to see more of that side of Ubisoft, the one who takes risks.
Honestly kinda glad all these AAA publishers are finally imploding, they've tainted this industry and took advantage of us too long. Die and don't come back
Ubisoft carries the entire french video games industry though. You don't want them to disappear or so many jobs are gonna be lost
Both can be true, sure i absolutely do not want the honest people just doing their jobs and living their passion to lose that, but im also so tired of the schemes, toxicity, ripoffs, blatant dishonesty, and literal scamming they've done for years while laughing in our face about it! They've gladly even targeted kids in search of their precious "whales". They have no shame, morals, or even basic humanity, their lower employees cant keep being their shield for consequences
That's not reason enough for not letting them fall, at this point they promote non-owned, sometimes dissapearing, buggy, crappy over-expensive AAAA games with generic open world checklist games filled with political agenda. Let them burn i say, they are a perfect example of everything wrong in the industry and they should fall at this point.
Not our fault they went to shit. If they don't want those people to be out of jobs, then stop producing slop and make games that people actually want to play.
Just let them burn, at this point, I don't care if a few developers like Ubisoft don't survive, it's healthier for the industry, although, with everything that's happening, I feel like we might be due for a crash.
The article discusses a claim by an intellectual property (IP) expert that Nintendo likely does not hold patents strong enough to prevent the game developer Pocketpair from creating Palworld, a game that some believe resembles Pokémon. The expert suggests that Nintendo's legal challenges against Palworld could amount to nothing more than corporate bullying, as the patents Nintendo might be relying on are not robust enough to stand up to legal scrutiny. The situation could be seen as an example of a large corporation trying to exert undue influence over a smaller competitor.
Crazy how far they are willing to go over nothing rather than tell Game Freak to get their shit together and sort the quality of the mainline games out.
Personally I'd drop the two game bullshit, make a full on complete game, and take their time making the best game they can without relying on a silly battle gimmick they'll ditch after one game. Gimmicks out of battle is what they should be focusing on, beauty contests, berry making, secret bases, the underground, Seasons, events during day / night and post game content like travelling to a new location or something.
That's the thing, this is why we're now seeing more serious competitors in the genre. Game Freak has just been coasting by, doing the bare minimum in innovation for the last 20+ years. They need to get with the times. Hire more devs, give more dev time to foster creativity, etc. But now that they can't get away with that bare minimum they're trying to sue their competitors out of existence. It's disgusting.
Nintendo risks big with this one.. it’s means competition to pokemon and that they dont want
been saying this since sun and moon.
gamefreak just isnt used to, still isnt used to, the console market. they did well on the handheld space but as a complete 3d developer z they fail miserable
the last two pkmn gens look like gamecube games. not to mention the bugs at launch.
but uve seen the ridiculous anount of copies sold at launch too.
Realistically though palworld Pokemon with guns featured so many themes and concepts that Nintendont
There's no way they would make a game where you could use realistic weapons or have pals slaving away.
They're not the same genre at all they just feature similar characters
Can't hide plagerism I guess, Palworld had it easy, even flaunting it, they deserve ever thing Nintendo decides to throw at them.
i think nintendo also made it quite impossible not to have similar creatures.
when u look at that other pkmn like hame, the name excapes me now, they look fairly similar to alot of pkmn.
I pretty much agree, two editions of the same game shouldn't even been a thing at this point. The foundations are solid, but the lack of content and having a lived in world really let the latest games down.
Two editions worked way back in the day as a gimmick hey your mate has different Pokemon in blue than you have in red so trade them but nowadays it's pointless we don't have any of those limitations system links not really a thing anymore and two editions feels exploitive nowadays like they are targeting kids to double dip
why would they do that when the fanbase is still willing to buy whatever low-effort and low-cost crap they are churning out? they are out to make as much money as possible with as little investment as possible and say what you want but GF is excellent at that front mainly because the fanbase allows them to. Nintendo is saying nothing because they are making money.
The article is actually Gamesradar's. MSN just used their page like a URL shortened link.
It's straight up bullying with mooney and using the government laws as a tool to do so. They should be fined.
If its not the new Zone of the Enders then I dont care what Konami says.
If Konami can give me a new Policenauts, Snatcher & Suikoden. I would be so happy and it would be one awesome E3 to remember.
MGS series goes to XBOX. Only that can make a revolution.
Let's see if it's snatcher or Suikoden 6. I hope it's suikoden 6.
If anything, please remember PS3 fans... This game is not multiplatform. Don't worry. Xbox 360 only owners... worry or buy a Ps3.
I can't wait til this is all behind us and it can be talked about. If I was like I use to be I'd have spent the entire bank and spilled everything I know about the game.
Trust me... It's not for the xbox 360. And it's not 100% completley new IP, either. It is a revolution of sorts, too. The game starts with a "C" but has a subtitle that starts with "S"
That is all I'm gong to say. No more. See you on my website and during E-3.
