Now, we wait In 2011, David O. Russell was attached to anUnchartedfilm that started taking shape as a Mark Wahlberg-led “family comedy.” Like most video game productions (and David O. Russell films, honestly), it went on hiatus, but is now back again with a vengeance. Sort of. According to Joe Carnahan, the film’s writer, the script is now “done and dusted.” He calls the document a “beast” and an “monstrously cool action script,” which only has me worried....

User emails and passwords compromised It never ends forThe War Z. While the controversial MMO was reinstated by Steam after addressingfalse advertising complaints, Hammerpoint’s game is currently offline due to hackers making off with personal information. According to publisher OP Productions, email addresses and passwords of users have been compromised, as have character names and IP addresses. OP assures the public that payment details are currently safe. The hack affects both the game and its forum, with neither service currently accessible online....

Finding the realism in fantasy [Correction:As user Jan Milik points out in the comments, it’s much more likely that Vávra’s statement refers to Andrzej Sapkowski’sHussite Trilogybooks rather thanThe Witcherbooks. It’s still the author ofThe Witcher, just notThe Witchersource material. I apologize for the mix-up.] WhenKingdom Come: Deliverancelaunched in February, it didn’t take players long to find all the secrets scattered across its take on 15th century Bohemia. There areeaster eggs from all the heavy hitters of high fantasy—Lord of the Rings,The Elder Scrolls,Game of Thronesto name a few....

From birth to savior in 23 minutes and 55 seconds SpeedrunnerBubblesDelFuegocompleted a new world recordFallout 3run in a ridiculous 23 minutes and 55 seconds, beating out his old record of 24 minutes and 20 seconds. I spent more time than that on my first playthrough repeating “Tunnel Snakes rule!” like a broken record, so that’s impressive. Bubbles used a number of commonFallout 3strategies such as “load clipping”, in which quick saving and loading can teleport you through certain obstacles, and using the same technique, skip dialogue segments....

Video game trailers are the appetizer of game marketing; if they aren’t tasty, no one will stick around for seconds. Well-edited cinematic trailers have turned garbage games into best-sellers, and poorly slapped-together previews have condemned many a masterpiece to “cult classic” status. A good game trailer makes a potential player feel like their game collection will never be complete if the subject isn’t part of it. The most iconic game trailers do this in a way that gamers remember long after getting the game....

In search of a Meepo… I had some disposable income, and I haven’t been excited to open card packs in quite a while, so I figured now is the time. I’ve mentioned this in myArtifactreview, but I’m just a big fan of collecting cards and watching the market values fluctuate, hopefully to take advantage of those fluctuations. I’ve never actually seen a card pack opening video, so naturally, I talk about nonsense not related to the actual value of the cards....

Choose your fighter I want to see the Venn diagram forBleeding Edge,Madden NFL 20, andNaruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4. Is there anyone out there who has equal love for all three of these very different games? Frankly, I wasn’t that hot onNinja Theory’s team-based brawler, but I do think it’s worth checking out for free – and I hope they make the shift to free-to-play while they can. For now, a small group of developers is working on tidying up matchmaking woes, latency and lag issues, andother pressing concernsbefore introducing a new hero, Mekko the dolphin, who will join the roster in the next patch....

There’s four choices, and you have until May 15 In case you haven’t heard, the PSPPrinnyseries is being resurrected on Switch later this year, under the namePrinny 1-2: Exploded and Reloaded. It’ll contain both underrated punishing platformers, but before that time actually arrives, NIS is planning a physical goodie extra: as they do. This time the extra comes in the form ofa contest that anyone can vote for, but only folks in the US/Canada can win....

Blank, Lebling to be honored in February Zorkwas, for many, a critical release in the history of videogames. One of the first major successes in terms of home computer games, it also opened eyes as to the potential of games to create worlds for players to become lost in. As such, it only makes sense that the creators of this seminal work be honored for their contribution. Wired has reportedthat the makers ofZork, Marc Blank and Dave Lebling will be honored with the “Pioneer Award” by the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences as part of their yearly awards program at the DICE Summit this coming February....
