Another Bug Hunt

     So that one game that the boners were over for the next console generation's launch, Watch Dogs, has been delayed to Spring 2014, further proving to the world that the sale for those boxes should be in goddamn stasis until next year. Unless, y'know, you wanna play car game. If you wanna play car game, go spend money to play car game. Sega, after a massive failure with Aliens: Colonial Marines, is apparently testing the waters again next generation with Alien: Isolation.  The game is rumored to star Ripley's daughter and only have one xenomorph, so maybe it'd be kinda tense and cool if it wasn't going to be kinda cool and then awful. Pokemon X and Y have sold more than 4 million copies, making them the fastest selling 3DS thing to date. So there you go. Couple that with the Wind Waker HD Wii-U bundle and Nintendo's kicking the dicks right now. Kicking the dicks.
Carry on, my Watch Dogs son

Movie Game But Without Movie- McDonald's Edition

    So these last few weeks have been a wacky time for the gamuwas, with GTA Online releasing, it's apparently busted so uh, for shame. Rockstar is, however, releasing some sort of a stimulus package for all the poor schlubs afflicted. French-o developer David Cage and his team over at Quantic Dream in Paris just released their new game a few hours ago starring Willem Dafoe and Ellen Page titled Beyond: Two Souls. The Walking Dead and Back to the Future adventure game devs Telltale's next comic undertaking, and adaptation of Fables has had its embargo lifted and it's apparently not shit, so that's cool. The newest Pokemon shit is coming out so PETA made some more literal shit for your eyes to take in- in the form of another shitty flash game. Cool. This time it's even edgier, because they lambaste the fine folks at Game Freak for releasing two versions of each of their games! (Woooooo) That noise, right? The wooo one? That was the phantom of me caring about PETA games.
Who's that guy? Fucking Grimace? Aw shucks.

Video Games: Not Even Once.

     Video game guy died, you know that Hunt for Red Video Game Book Man Tom Clancy. A well known name in gaming, he's attached to tens of titles- none of which I've played, which will continue to be produced way after he dies. The Last of Us DLC was teased again, and Persona 5 is apparently getting some info dropped next month. Persona's found a niche for itself over here with its past two numbered releases, and as we see other games in that same umbrella find popularity in the US, the more likely it'll be that Atlus doesn't go under or something. Community supported indie baby Mighty No 9 capped its kickstarter off at around 4 million dollars, making it one of the most successful games on the site thus far. This means it's coming to everything, so 3DS, Vita, Next Gen consoles, etc. Which is kinda cool. Also GTAV Online came out and people are mad because people are mad. Who cares.

RIP Tom Clancy I didn't know you well
