"Comic book heroes rarely see true justice brought to them in the video game world. Some companies such as Rocksteady and 2K Games have put the heart of a true fan into the creation of their super hero projects and have come out with some of the best known hero titles in the industry; titles that don’t actually make you shudder when you think of them."
Yuji Naka was fined $1.2 million and given a suspended jail sentence for the crime.
I find his comments around how Balan turned out to be very insightful as to why the game is trash. He basically apologises for its existence
can you please give some of us who don't know anything about this, a summary of what happened?
Balan was knowingly rushed out by S-E, it had an extremely short dev cycle and was fairly low budget.
Naka was the game's director until near the end when he was fired or perhaps he quit, I forgot.
@Chocoburger Yeah they did fire and replace him which caused him to unload a bunch of rants about the company. The project only existed because of Naka in the first place, he convinced Square to give him one shot at making a platformer. They gave him an opportunity but pulled the rug out before he was done for reasons not explained.
The top producer of Square Enix flagship Dragon Quest franchise is stepping down from the role, following delays in developing the next installment of the popular series.
Please o please don't turn dragon quest into final fantasy square enix we dont wont that. Dragon quest works well just as it I. Plus you'll piss off Japanese fans to.
Hopefully they don’t. From this it doesn’t sound like that is the case and development is just taking too long.
Square Enix will be releasing three new manga titles later this year, all of which are available for pre-order now.
Why no IceMan video game?
I want a Deadpool game or a sandbox TMNT game that you can use any turtle.
I reckon Deadpool would make for a good game, as would Hellboy. Both mix guns and hand-to-hand combat so it would allow for a good mixture. Deadpools utterly nuttiness would mean you could get away with a lot of wierd levels and daft moments, and Hell Boy's world has plenty of odd creatures and locations to use.
