The R.I. Economic Development Corp. had no idea what they were doing when the deal was formed, or worse, they did know, but profited from the deal.

The only real losers here are the RI taxpayers.

And the politicians that signed the deal will never be held accountable, but apparently Curt Schilling is a crook for taking a 75 million dollar loan.

I wonder how Avellone actually has time to write for all these games he's involved in. He does like 17 interviews a day!

On topic: Don't pre-order, people. Stop pre-ordering. Force devs and publishers to release good games before they get bought.

I love that link from the SimCity Nissan article.

The way to get 1.8 million happy citizens? Put tax rate to zero, and provide no services at all.

To call SimCity "broken" would be giving it too much credit. It apparently doesn't actually simulate anything.

The guy politely wasn't a fan of your hobby, so you're happy he's dead.

I was actually just making fun of the fact that he gave 99.9999999% of Hollywood's drivel two thumbs up. He likely would have given a movie about his own death two thumbs way up.

What ever happened to those guys that tried to skate by on the Black Isle name and asked for money?


I believe the total donations were like 2 grand. Hehehe.

Sadly for those people, however, I'm pretty sure there was no "if the goal is not met, you will not be charged" clause, so basically people gave two grand to those cocksuckers in charge of Activision. But hey, this is how stupid people learn.

I'm glad they got Chris to join. They also got the 3.75 for the companion side quests. All I really want to see now is that oasis, because it looks pimp.

However, I'm not upping my pledge. I want to see some product first before I start donating more hundreds of dollars... Dammit, but that oasis looks really cool...

News Comments > DOOM 4 Development Rebooted in 2011

with the threat of closure or becoming an engine developer if DOOM 4 fails to meet expectations, which are apparently quite lofty, as apparently id was told by Zenimax executives that the game could and should be as big as Skyrim.

Hahahahaha. Yeah, good luck with that.

Poor poor id. Not satisfied with the millions upon millions of copies of Doom 3 they sold, they ran to the consoles in search of more money, sniffed their noses at their PC fans in the process, and now suddenly they have to create games that sell 10+ million copies to be considered a success.

In short: Bye id. But hey, at least Carmack will have his rockets!

Edit: Didn't realize this was from Kotaku, so there's a YuuuHUUUUGE "IF this is true" attached to my statement.

Anyway, The Verge has their Ouya review up. They slay it. Obviously it's brand new, and they recognize potential, but as a device for right now they say it's basically pointless and does nothing well (because they feel it was released too soon.) That, of course, can change.

Credit where credit is due, I always figured the Ouya was a massive scam and vaporware on the Phantom level, so I will say good job to the Ouya team for releasing what they said they would.

So basically someone at 38studios.com is acting like they're an active game developer, but really have no ability to produce anything aside news and hype?

How's that different from before?


It's the Activision way! Coming soon: the 38studios Kickstarter!

Yeah, that sounds like a great fucking idea, Audi. Let's have people drive around with their brights on at all times! Nothing can go wrong there!

FFS, your lightbulbs are already as bright as hell. Why not just put two fucking Pulsars at the front of your car? That way everyone's retinas can be scorched to a crisp.

It's funny how the worse things never want to die. We'll never get another Looking Glass but hey let's have 4 versions of APB and someone keep trying to resurrect this average company who produced one mediocre game

Wow, that is really fucking depressing. Dammit Verno! Now I'm crying!

George's claims of "it's gone" are blatant lies (my bet),

They are. He knew full well that most fans really didn't like his "revisions" and wanted the original trilogy, with the original dialogue, and the original scenes. (fuck this greedo shot first bullshit. It completely alter Han's character.)

So rather than have to admit he was wrong, he just twisted things so nobody had any choice but to watch HIS preferred version.

I'd also like Disneys stance on a non-molested Original Trilogy release on blu.



I thought George said that the original prints were destroyed, and that was impossible? You mean he lied???

Why hasn't there been a new Jedi SOMETHING game in a while?

Because LucasArts was run by functionally braindead monkeys.

People flipped out and said he was an asshole because they didn't understand what he wrote.

"This isn't a sad day, it's an economically realistic day.

Anybody who said that the closing of Looking Glass studios wasn't a sad day is just about the biggest fucking asshole in the gaming industry.

When the day comes that your studio closes, Tim, we'll say the same thing. Asshole.
