How far would you go for… a Starcraft II beta key? [5]
This LA woman would go very, very far, as this posting on Craigslist depicts. Potentially NSFW.
Final Fantasy XIII appears to be lacking a few pixels on Xbox 360 [4]
Pixelcounters unite! Users on NeoGAF have analyzed the holy beejesus out of the recenlty released “Final Fantasy XIII” screens, coming to the conclusion that the Xbox 360 version of the game runs at the resolution of 1024×576, meaning the PlayStation 3 displays 332316 pixels more.
I have altered the picture above the news post to reflect this new development. From now on, posts talking about the Xbox 360 version of the game will have their picture rendered in a much lower resolution, to adjust your eyes to Final Fantasy XIII’s deficiencies. Also, to save bandwidth. Two birds, one stone.
It remains to be seen if these claims are indeed true, because this is huge. I don’t know how much you know about screen resolutions, I’m an expert, but honor and shame are huge parts of it. If you screw someone over with a sub HD resolution, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.
What this means is the Xbox 360 owners, after hearing about this, are not going to want to purchase FFXIII, nor will they purchase any of Square’s games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Square has alienated an entire market with this move.
Square, publicly apologize and make the Xbox 360 version 720p or you can kiss your business goodbye.
Alan Wake Sequel “should [part 1] be successful” [4]
VG247’s Patrick Garratt sat down with Remedy’s Oskari Häkkinen and spoke to him about the possibility of a sequel to “Alan Wake”:
You want to think of this as Season 1, so to speak, of a TV series. This will have a satisfactory and conclusive ending, but we will leave doors open, just as they do in Lost of 24, where they have a satisfactory ending to the season but they leave some doors open for the larger story. Just the same here. We’ll have the satisfactory and conclusive ending, and should this be successful then we will do Season 2.
I am not one to guilt trip you into things, but I think you should save up some cash. I have a good feeling about this one, and if I am right, we’ll probably all want more “Alan Wake”. In short: Please buy this.
God of War III Demo hitting on the 25th [2]
For all of you who did not get a chance to play the “God of War III” demo yet, rejoice! ThatGamingSite is reporting that the rather extended E3 build of the game might be available on PSN come February 25, which not only is the date the demos’s exclusivity to GAME.co.uk expires, but also a thursday… and we all know what happens on thursday.
No, not ladies night at the bar downtown, but PSN update day.
Less than a month until the full game is out, exclusively on PS3. On a scale of 1-10, how pumped are you? I’m at 11, thanks for asking.
Assassins Creed II DRM wants your internet, always [3]
Like a bad friend only coming to your place to use your internet, the PC version of “Assassins Creed II” will require an active internet connection at all times, reports PC Gamer. Should your internet get wonky and the game is not able to phone home, it will simply ask you to please save your game so it can exit to Windows.
Yeah, people are not going to like this one bit.
If you don’t want “Splinter Cell Conviction” — same studio, no less — to turn out the same way, I think you want to start to riot just about now.
Dudley, Ibuki, Makoto appear in new Super Street Fighter IV trailer [Comments Off]
While neither Dudley, nor Ibuki or Makoto are officially confirmed to be in the game, that doesn’t mean Capcom can’t just release a trailer featuring just those 3 characters promoting their upcoming release of “Super Street Fighter IV”.
You can check out the trailer over at Kotaku and then look at this totally accurate list of characters leaked about 6 months ago. Good to be in the know, eh?
Jaffe all but confirms Ben Hur game [Comments Off]
David Jaffe hinted what his next game might be at DICE, describing it as being “in between God of War and Calling all Cars”.
Well I don’t know about you, but I think we’ll be racing chariots against each other while swinging deadly blades mounted on chains… or it could just be a new “Twisted Metal”.
Whatever it is he is working on should be unveiled at some point this year and will be released exlusively for PlayStation 3.
