The Yerli brothers from Crytek are from Turkish descent... so it's only natural that they made a deal with Turkey.

Errorist762705d ago

Still sad they make a deal with a fascist government. I'm disappointed.

TheColbertinator2705d ago

@Errorist

Fascism is all the rage these days. From East Asia to the Middle East to Russia to Turkey to the US. Its what the people chose.

most likely for military simulation training

AFAIK games like Battlfield/ARMA started out as military training software

@TheColbertinator

You forgot Europe...It's sad but it's the truth you say...The problem with mankind is they never learn from their mistakes, only temporarily...we're at the end of an age and the beginning of a new one. Sadly to really learn from it and move forward (atm were moving backwards) there will have to be a big bang. We deserve it.

in case anyone wants to know about why people are refering to pay.

http://n4g.com/news/1992952...

Then there is the article where the executive said the employees wanting to be paid after six months are "impatient " ! Imagine wanting to get paid after going six months with no pay, and the boss say your impatient!

indysurfn2704d ago

@TheColbertinator so are you trying to say the people that voted for Trump are natzy fascist ?

UltraNova2704d ago

Well I hope Crytek is ready to start receiving firm 'advices' on their story's political/religion direction, curtesy of the Dictator calling himself President, Mr Erdogan.

TheColbertinator2704d ago (Edited 2704d ago )

@indysurfn

No ,what I'm saying honestly is that regardless who is president of either party fascism is taking over.

Trump,Obama,Bush are all individuals placed to receive the blame while hidden leaders truly pull the political and financial strings.

@Errorist

Its like when Communism swept through the world.

so now we know where the 6 month staff pay money went

Grap2705d ago

turkey gave crytek the money not the other way around.

justsomeoffdude2705d ago (Edited 2705d ago )

Well it seems everyone is confused.. this article says crytek is investing $500M in turkey, http://www.dailysabah.com/t... while this article says turkey is investing in crytek.. http://hardavenue.com/cryte... i guess we'll know in a few days

Errorist762705d ago (Edited 2705d ago )

Crytek is investing money the Turkish government gave them in Turkey.

It's similar to the travels to Turkey in winter. One can get a week in a Turkish 5star hotel for 150€ Including flights (Not kidding) because the Turkish government pays subsidies in order to avoid all those people working there losing their jobs.

Grap2705d ago

@justsomeoffdude
well of course if turkey gave them money they will invest it into turkey, why would turkey give them free money so they can invest it in another country?
it's really simple turkey gave them money so they can invest it in their economy.

Errorist762705d ago

They should invest the money fast because atm the Turkish Lira us in catastrophic downfall.

Ubisoft say AC Shadows protagonists will be "romantically attracted to different types of people"

Ubisoft recently shared more details about Assassin's Creed Shadows protagonists, confirming that both of them will romantically attract and be attracted to different types of people.

Hugodastrevas16h ago

That should please everyone I'm sure...

Feudal Japan DEI LGBTQ+ Samurai, sounds very accurate for the time period. Surely a decision made only with historical accuracy in mind.

Crows901h ago

Or even modern day accuracy.....

Lexreborn21h ago

You have no idea what you are talking about, bet you didn’t know nobunaga was bi-sexual. Or ran maru his is often depicted as androgynous was a “beautiful boy”.

So yeah, feudal Japan had tons of lgbtq and kawaii enough… A BLACK SAMURAI! All without the need of offending a Caucasian because the world is diverse.

CrimsonWing691h ago

Geezus, just make a good game… holy sh*t this is becoming insufferable.

Crows901h ago

Oh yeah!!!! What about being inclusive???

I'm sorry
..please replace the word inclusive with stupid.

Hofstaderman12m ago

You asking UbiSoft to make a good game? This is not 2002.

darthv721h ago

Is that genuinely a selling point for people?

RpgSama1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

They sure as hell want to see if it is, time and time and time again.

You have to understand they’re incapable of writing a good story so this is the best they could come up with

Wow.... two of my earliest gaming platforms. All they need is Coleco to round things out.

This is like Nintendo buying SEGA.

OtterX5h ago

YES! Colecovision was my start! I came to know Mario there in Donkey Kong before the NES was even a thing. :)

Golfcoachh2h ago

Yes such fond memories. My first was the odyssey, but I really started gaming on my colecovision. Had atari and intelivision but coleco was by far the best of the bunch to me.

Kratos_Kart20072h ago

Yes...a gamer from my era...LMAO

Coleco was good...LOL

anast7h ago(Edited 7h ago)

Good piece of history here.

edit: I wanted to read it but the cookies pop up is stopping me.

badboyz097h ago

This was just before my time. I do remember my mom's friend having one all dusty in her apartment back in the day.

People forget that console wars are part of the history of this industry. The console wars were started by competitive companies all the way back then and continued through Sega vs Nintendo, Jaguar/3DO/NeonGeo, and PlayStation vs Nintendo and Xbox.

These companies are across oceans and competing for the same business. These companies created the console wars, not crazy fanboys.

anast4h ago

Console wars are fun. It's fun to be a fanboy too. I don't get what's wrong with any of this as entertainment.

darthv724h ago

Young kid school yard banter was fun. 30-40+ year olds still doing it is just disturbing. Many my age (50+) grew out of that a long time ago. We may still have our preferences, but we also embrace a more central position because there is a lot to enjoy on a wide range of genres and systems.

You'll understand one day and then things will forever change.

Petebloodyonion2h ago

The only thing back then was that the game would still appear on competing platforms.
Remember the Coleco Vision could play Atari2600 games via an Expansion modude.

jznrpg6h ago(Edited 6h ago)

I had both. Snafu on Intellivision was addicting as hell. Also had Colecovision which had Time Pilot. Combat was probably my favorite Atari game and both Atari and Intellivision had similar games like Pitfall and Jungle Hunt. It’s been so long I don’t really remember which game I liked bettter out of those but I did play my Intellivision a bit more than Atari though I’m not sure why besides Snafu. That was 40+ years ago damn I’m old lol

Dagexon5h ago

Ahh you're making me all nostalgic! Not old enough to have played these on original hardware but my first console was a bootleg console from Costco that had a bunch of intellivision and atari games. Then had a lot of fun with intellivision and atari collections on ps1 and 2.
Snafu was one of my favourite games and me and my partner still occasionally play it to this day
