  • Arkane is dead, long live the WolfEye!
    Hello Legion Gamers! A bit of good news this time! Remember in spring the Arkane studio closed down, the one that made Dishonored and Prey games? It was sad, but it seems that, hopefully, that story may get a happier ending after all. Turns out, Raphaël Colantonio who was the director of... see more
  • Farewell Game Informer...
    GI twitter account may be closed, but Matt Miller, GI's Editor-In-Chief, shared his last letter (and a rather warm felt and long one at that, too) on socials: see more
  • LOLLIPOP CHAINSAW RePOP we have a trailer with a release date
    @GoLLuM13 Oh, to commemorate the pre-order opening, they made a new trailer: see more
  • Like a Dragon Yakuza is getting an Amazon series!
    @ZaidH True, but then again, six episodes is short but not that little either, it is a standard miniseries format. If you know what you're doing you can fit a lot in there. Look at Good Omens, for example. Here it seems more of an artistic vision choice and a wish to ride on a popular character... see more
  • Check out Blizzard's WoW "Threads of Destiny" trailer!
    @Saka That's true, although occupational hazards in that line of work often prevent that. But even then, players need closure. Show us Lich King, I dunno, picking up fishing or gardening (or ice sculpting if you want to stay on brand). Since he has a daughter, maybe also playing with grandkids or... see more
  • Check out Blizzard's WoW "Threads of Destiny" trailer!
    @Saka Ah, so from the world-threatening epic his story turned into family drama? I wish they would do more with him, I mean, the quest of search for purpose is one of the main themes of Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus. If he has no role to fill, he may embark on a quest to find a new... see more
  • Farewell Game Informer...
    @ZaidH GameStop even deleted the Twitter/X account. Not sure if they wanted to preserve anything. I would hope that in cases like this, it may actually go into a public auction. If so, dedicated fans may all get a piece of the magazine's history. Hopefully. But you never really know. True.... see more
  • The Borderlands movie is bad...people say.
    @ZaidH The word that first came to my mind is old. As in, all characters seem to be older than they were in the game. Which here is a bit of a downer because, in the game, since they are young, you can get behind the foolish ambition and bad choices and general lack of seriousness. "We're going to... see more
  • Check out Blizzard's WoW "Threads of Destiny" trailer!
    @Saka How much of a role does Lick King have these days? I know he was a focus of earlier expansions, but after that plot ark where he was defeated and "changed", I am not sure how big is his role. If no longer that big, then it would make sense for them not to be as connected to him anymore and... see more
  • Check out Blizzard's WoW "Threads of Destiny" trailer!
    @Saka I am sure you can, in fact, Darkest Dungeon managed to do just that. But their vibe is different, spiders are about webs and threads and caves and hunting, and crustaceans would be more eldritch gods and sea depth and all that. Visual-wise such a substitution is possible, but I am not sure if... see more
  • THQ Nordic Digital Showcase 2024 recap!
    Hello Legion Gamers! Last Friday (02/08/2024) THQ Nordic Digital presented the Showcase 2024 where they showed some games and shared some news. For those of you who missed it, here is the recording: And here is a small summary of interesting things if you want just the bullet points:... see more
  • Check out Blizzard's WoW "Threads of Destiny" trailer!
    Hello Legion Gamers! In preparation for the World of Warcraft: The War Within expansion (to come out on the 27th of August or 23rd for Epic), Blizzard, a is traditional., prepared a trailer showcasing heroes and villains of the new expansion. Check it out: ​​​​​​​@Saka and @Liue this is... see more
  • The Borderlands movie is bad...people say.
    Hello Legion Gamers! Tomorrow the Borderlands movie is going to be released (08/08/2024), but so far the critic's reactions to it are mostly unfavourable. So much so that they call it "uninspired", "unfunny", and "a disaster" (not my words, I took it from here). For those of you not in the loop,... see more
  • LOLLIPOP CHAINSAW RePOP we have a trailer with a release date
    @GoLLuM13 I am not sure what Braid was supposed to be, but I read that they not only updated the graphics but also added 40 new levels, so that was not just cosmetic. But I am not sure if they put a "remaster" or "remake" label on it, probably not, just Anniversary Edition. In other news,... see more
  • Farewell Game Informer...
    @ZaidH I do not think it was the audience who archived it, I think it was mostly the website staff. After the magazine got its own website, they digitized all the issues they made themselves and maintained it. Then after the magazine closed down, the site was put "on ice" and is not updated or... see more
  • Like a Dragon Yakuza is getting an Amazon series!
    @ZaidH They seem to want to make the story, at least in the first season, more emotional, and wackiness does not help that, they say. I can see the point in that, but I do not entirely agree: there were substories that touched on emotional elements in addition or instead of wackiness. But all is... see more
  • LOLLIPOP CHAINSAW RePOP we have a trailer with a release date
    @GoLLuM13 I guess developers who release old titles need to be careful and creative. Just a few days ago Thekla reported that the Anniversary Edition of Braid sold so poorly that the studio may even need to close down. Though there were other reasons for that, like they did not really have a good... see more
  • Like a Dragon Yakuza is getting an Amazon series!
    @ZaidH Just read a sad bit that there will not be any karaoke in the series, though there may be "some singing" in the future. In fact, news reports that the series will not focus on "substory material". Sad. I felt a bit worried about this. On the one hand, I get it, fitting a story into 6-hour... see more
  • LOLLIPOP CHAINSAW RePOP we have a trailer with a release date
    @GoLLuM13 A rare thing here: the release date was moved, but not forward like it usually is (we've had too much of that lately), but instead 2 weeks earlier: That's nice. I wonder if developers planned it this way from the start, or if they want to get ahead of the curve and put the game out... see more
  • Warhammer fans, save the date: 23rd of May!
    @ChristianRasmussen Sometimes experiments can be ok. Lower Decks, for example, indeed does not have a Star Trek vibe, but if you look past that, it's more or less ok (if you like that type of animation, of course). But it is on a case-by-case basis, with Lower Decks, even though they were... see more
