GamePron News this week looks at Duke Nukem Forever, which has been rated suitable for Australians, and made it through the censors unscathed. Everything’s on track for a May release!
There’s also some good news for gamers as BlizzCon 2011 is announced, and we get an early glimpse and a handful of details about Battlefield 3. Meanwhile, the latest LEGO browser title and this iPhone RTS seem oddly familiar.
Mass Effect 2 wins big at the Interactive Achievement Awards, but the fans are divided over Clint Mansell writing the score for the sequel. Gamers around the world are also unhappy following Activision Blizzard‘s Q4 2010 earnings call this week, which saw the apparent demise of three franchises.
Finally, if someone sends you a confusing string of digits, you’d better check what it is before claiming they’ve sunk your battleship.
It’s been nearly a decade since the release of the last Guitar Hero game. Is time running out for Guitar Hero, or are we closer than ever to the long-awaited reunion tour on the PS5 and Xbox Series X? As it turns out, we might soon see the return of a rock giant — at least, if modern gaming trends are to be trusted.
I just don’t see this being nearly as popular as it was back in the day. These kids are way too attached to phones and tablets to care about plastic guitars and drums. Would be cool if it did return but I just don’t see hype for it like the good old days of gaming.
Or....in the modern era, it could support real electric guitars and drum sets...?
I think we can do better than the buttons at this point
Hmmm maybe you are correct. Unfortunately. Also, there is the VR rhythm games already in the wide which are very popular. But back in those days we only had gutar hero.
I would gladly buy a guitar hero collection or just guitar hero 2 again on series X or ps5.
Most likely answer is both platforms because why leave out 60-70 million platform gamers
Activision Blizzard ordered to pay $23.4M for patent infringement involving popular games.
I would read the article but the giant pop-ups from the top and bottom of the screen made me close it.
Without reading $23.4 million isn't a deterrent for a company that size.
Boss: Let's fire a few people to recoup on that loss.
Slave: Cortana has decided to get rid of Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks.
Boss: Let's get those Firing Letters "Copilot Approved" and send them through the power of the cloud.
Slave: Long Live Phil !!!
ALL in the room: LONG LIVE PHIL !!!!
Well another troll company with a patent trying to extort money out of companies. Seems like they’re going to try and sue everyone.
Blizzard writes: "After careful consideration over the last year, we at Blizzard have made the decision not to hold BlizzCon in 2024. This decision was not made lightly as BlizzCon remains a very special event for all of us, and we know many of you look forward to it. While we’re approaching this year differently and as we have explored different event formats in the past, rest assured that we are just as excited as ever to bring BlizzCon back in future years."
How about you not hold Blizzcon anymore period. You fucking POS company. I really hope Blizzard would just die.
