ign writes: Batman's super villain is going out on a high note says actor.
Mark Hamill – the voice of Joker in Batman: Arkham Asylum – has hinted that the super villain's appearance in the sequel could well be his last. Talking exclusively with IGN at the Cannes Film Festival, Hamill said of his role of the Joker, "This will be my last, there's no question about that. But it's the last hurrah."
Hamill added that he was also unsure as to whether he should even have appeared at all, initially thinking developer Rocksteady would be unable to top the original game and that he "wanted to be able to say I'd gone out on a high note," but was finally convinced to resurrect Joker once more.
Warner Bros. announced it's pivoting to live-service games, which could be a disastrous move for its devs
I don’t think there ever was a time for GaaS. Its entire resistance is revolved around making a game that generates recurring revenue constantly throughout its lifetime. It’s straight up a corporate scumbag design.
I watched the video seeing if anything changed since the initial Suicide gameplay vid before the delay and it looks the same. So weird watching all the characters just start a gun to their back and bounce super high shooting with no kick-back animation in an empty dead world. The voice acting is cringe and there doesn’t have any sense of atmosphere or immersion like the Arkham games.
And they expect you to pay $70 to $100 for this and then pay more for Battle Passes and items to make grinding less a chore. Yea, no thank you. I hope you learn a hard lesson with this one.
Today, during Warning Bros' conference call, chief executive officer David Zaslav talked about Mortal Kombat 1, Hogwarts Legacy, and the company's gaming business.
yea, because thats what people want, especially after those games sold millions and are not live service games haha.
so dumb haha.
Genius executives at work. "hey, what we're doing is working great. Let's change it."
"Invasions" is technically free live service game with new content every 45 days. It's the best mode MK has ever had IMO. As a single player gamer, it gives me a reason to stick around after the story mode.
New mk sold less then the last in the same time frame the NEW MK is legit a live service game with its horrible monopoly board. I just wanted a normal title...
It's not on older hardware, so that's why it seems less. No ps4/xbox one versions.
I doubt older hardware would make a difference, given the ratios of sales of other multi-gen games
Nah the new MK full of live service shit even the singleplayer monopoly board they gave use instead of a normal kyrpt says enough and sales reflect that also this MK is very combo heavy it not noob friendly what's so ever like others
From VGC: "Warner Bros. Discovery today announced the launch of the Warner Bros. Discovery Access x Rocksteady Studios Games Academy in the UK.
The initiative, which will open for applications on August 30, will be offered to individuals aged 18 or older in the UK, with an emphasis on applicants that may not have access to traditional pathways into the industry, such as university courses, or internships.
The course will be free and will offer financial assistance such as bursaries for travel or childcare. The deadline to apply is September 23, and candidates will be notified in mid-October."

You know hamill never really was given the credit he deserved, Just like every actor that played In Star Wars (Excluding Harrison Ford)
He's an insanely talented actor, I hope that his upcoming project really shines the spotlight on him because he deserves It.
This guy does not need the money or exposure. If he was done and they convinced him to do a sequel, then holy crap it must be insane. I am officially stoked as hell for this game.
Forget cowbell, MORE SCARECROW!
His voice work is amazing. Glad he will be back in the second one.
I really hope he reconsiders this. Whenever it comes to seeing the Joker in any way aside from the actual Batman movies, the only voice that fits the Joker is Mark Hamill's version. He is definitely one of my favorite voice actors, along with Cam Clarke, Nolan North, Steven Blum, and of course David Hayter.
NOOOOOO!!!!
