Rumor: Castlevania 'Harmony of Despair' is 2D, 6-player XBLA game

Apr 30th 2010 6:14PM (Joystiq)
What? No! I don't want a multiplayer Castlevania. Didn't thy learn from Castlevania Judgement?

I want another 2D Castlevania, but I guess Konami will break the 2 year Castlevania cycle and let Lords of Shadow be the game for this year.

Interview: Bungie discusses Activision, its 'new universe,' and what happens to Reach

You certainly could have talked about it, but maybe she already has a plan to ride out the relationship while emptying out your bank account.

I'm sure Bungie is watching their back. They just wanted the money and the independence.

It makes more sense now that Bungie reps have said the contract was signed THIS WEEK.

They certainly had to use the Infinity Ward situation to get a better deal.

'Infinity Ward Employee Group' lawsuit documents: see them here

Apr 28th 2010 10:14AM (Joystiq)
Seeing all this lawsuit stuff go around makes me want to join the party.

Can I sue Infinity Ward for emotional distress and defamation after having to deal with how they butchered the prestige of the Modern Warfare name with the campaign in Modern Warfare 2?

Former Nintendo VP Denise Kaigler joins 38 Studios

Is that because she didn't provide the answers you wanted to hear or because she had her own personality behind the answers and gave realistic assessments of Nintendo's marketing and support for their audience?

Sure Nintendo has not supported the Wii with the hardcore titles gamers wanted, but when over 50% of your audience is casual, at some point you realistically have to make games for that audience.

I dunno, I personally liked her attitude during those interviews because of how she noted where Nintendo's audience was while also managing to prove that Nintendo was still giving content to the hardcore. One area where she had a little trouble was 3rd party support, but who wouldn't when it comes to the Wii?

'Block Party' boosts XBLA March sales by 41 percent

Apr 27th 2010 11:13AM (Joystiq)
If this truly is a success then XBLA should have seasonal events for the sale of XBLA games. Block Party and Summer Arcade are already in place, all that is needed now are Winter and Fall events.

This way XBLA games don't always have to hope for a prime spot in the Summer Arcade month and can now be spread out across the year.

Although, MS should be supporting all the games that get put up on its service and not just a select few.

'Mega Man Universe' trademark filed by Capcom

This does not sound like Megaman Legends 3

Former Nintendo VP Denise Kaigler joins 38 Studios

I enjoyed Kaigler's interviews while she was working for Nintendo. She always managed to skirt the PR line while also providing witty (and factual) answers to questions asked.

She probably won't be as publicized at the new studio, but I think she'll do well

New Oddworld on hold, old Oddworlds coming to Steam this year

Apr 25th 2010 9:26PM (Joystiq)
Hmm...howabout those movies that the studio was supposed to be focused on? Did those ever happen?

Tricked again! RUSE delayed to September

Apr 24th 2010 10:21AM (Joystiq)
I am actually hoping that more games with coincidental titles get delayed.

Duke Nukem Forever can't be the only one.
