In 5 Minutes: Scrolls are bad Mkay

What's worse than losing one of the best games of the year from your download service?

Well being sued over the word “Scroll” for one thing.

In the show:

Battlefield 3 not coming to Steam.
Bethesda play the "Gamers are idiots" card as they sue Notch.
Not that he cares because he's now planning on buying the Moon after Minecraft has sold over 3 million copies.
In our "Good News" feature Todd Howard has no idea how the console market works; and let's be honest the PS360 is a stupid name anyway.

All that and more on the August 6 edition of the In 5 Minutes podcast

notch got sued?

over what?

also we all know EA are freakin stupid

damn origin

tgh machines5073d ago

He got sued because a game he is making is called "scrolls". Bethesda Softworks says this is copyright infringement on The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. I would also like to point out that it is Bethesda Softworks, the Publisher of Skyrim that is suing, NOT Bethesda Game Studios. Which basically means that the actual developers of Skyrim have nothing to due with the suing.

TheWolverine5073d ago

ZeniMax Media Inc. is an American media company that develops and publishes computer and video games through its subsidiaries. Bethesda Game Studios was acquired in 1999. ZeniMax is suing Notch... get your facts straight...

UKRush5070d ago

Without going into in-depth corporate holdings, I believe the point he was making was that Skyrim's developers have nothing to do with the suing of Mojang, which you have indeed just confirmed as correct. Albeit in an overly-anal way trying to put at bay your own insecurities by being correct with unnecessary and pointless trivialities. Loosen up, dude.

Marathon Development Update

Marathon was slated to launch on Sept. 23, 2025 across Xbox, PC, and PlayStation, but Bungie will share the new release date in the fall.

Jin_Sakai9d ago

Probably best just cancel it. The game has flop written all over it.

-Foxtrot9d ago

Yeah, you can delay it as much as you want but you ain’t gonna wash that stink off.

Killer2020UK9d ago

It will lessen though and possibly make all the difference if it launches in a state that rectified a lot of the issues people had with it. A LOT of ifs of course.

RaidenBlack9d ago

If you really gotta play ... play the better extraction shooter this year : ARC Raiders

ZeekQuattro9d ago

Delaying the inevitable. Bungie hoping the negative publicity will blow over. 🙄

darthv729d ago

They can't cancel it until a themed controller has been released first... like concord.

ZeekQuattro9d ago

I anxiously wait for that and a Marathon Secret Level episode.

GamingManiac9d ago

$10 says it'll have the stolen artwork on it lolol

dveio9d ago

If they were absolutely certain about the quality of Marathon, then they had not delayed it just now.

So they've basically just confirmed what everyone, well, a lot of people saw: Marathon is not ready yet, still no soul to be seen.

Tacoboto9d ago

"Doubling down on the Marathon Universe"

They're doubling down on soul, thank goodness this feedback illuminated that for them...

RaidenBlack9d ago

and N4G was littered with comments like : Marathon looks really good, maybe you're a hater and the likes blah blah ... especially under articles which compared it with Arc Raiders ....

Does anyone think it’s a little lazy of them to use a Ghast rather than make a new Hot air balloon skin or something.

A whole update for this is wild after months of waiting
