Bitmob Staff Writer Samir Torres rounds up the weekend's biggest gaming news and recreates it in hilarious photoshop form. In this edition, Sony plans to murder movie-goers, an Xbox 360 bundle could potentially ruin Christmas, and Pixar characters take over Kinect.

Voldo and Rodrigo Borgia would have so much fun together.

Tolkoto4568d ago

I bet an Assassin's Creed movie made in the 40s would have been awesome.

Sadie21004568d ago

What is up with that kid's tears??

THR1LLHOUSE4568d ago

Mark Hammil is, and will probably always be, the best Joker. It's a shame to see him go, but at least Conroy will never retire or die or anything...I hope...

Soulcalibur 5 will be delisted next week on PS3 and Xbox 360

Soulcalibur official Twitter: "Valiant Warriors - Soul Calibur V is taking its final curtain call on the stage of history and will be sunset on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on June 19, 2023. The base game and all associated DLC will no longer be available for purchase. Thank you for your continued support."

This is why guest characters shouldn't be on the base roster. Im sure Ezio and the whole Assassin's Creed stuff license expired and that is why it is being removed. The same thing is probably going to happen to Soul Calibur 6 in 10 years.

I doubt a lot of people still played the worst SC game over 10 years after its release on dead consoles.

blackblades319d ago

Right whoever wanted the game would've had it by now. Also physical is usually the better option

gold_drake319d ago

damn.

alot of games have been delisted recently.

Nyxus319d ago

Meanwhile several big games are going digital only. Good omen for the future...

MadLad319d ago

I've been mainly gaming on PC for 12 years now. I don't think there was ever a game that was actually taken away from me.
Even the multiplayer-focused games, with their servers typically being taken down, you can still host your own.

Not sure why People are so against digital. You still need online infrastructure just to update your games or to patch them. You're stuck to online/digital one way or another.

Nyxus319d ago

Most games play just fine without an internet connection. There are also other reason aside from preservation, digital games are often more expensive (at least the one I'm buying) than what you can find through deals in stores. But most of all I just like to be able to actually own the games as physical objects, being able to lend them out etc. And be assured that I can still play them in the future. Sure you can probably emulate them, but I prefer to play on console and I'd rather play an actual copy than an emulation anyway.

I'm not against digital in itself, I just don't want to be forced to go digital because the physical option is taken away. Just give people the option to either get it physically or digitally, that way everyone is happy and it's also the best way to preserve games for the future.

Make your peace with it. It’s the direction the industry is going in.

XiNatsuDragnel319d ago

Well industry is pretty much dead in that case.

lucian229319d ago

When will you decommission this new one? I’m only asking so I can be happier by not buying it at full price.

bunt-custardly602d ago

The dog Chorizo from FAR CRY 6 has wheelchair legs, so is hardly a decommissioned pet. In fact very useful for digging up dirt.
