    • Dragon Age: Origins sells 2.7 million

    February 8, 2010 | By admin In Video Games | Comments(0)

    BioWare’s dark fantasy epic Dragon Age: Origins has sold 2.7 million copies worldwide across all the platforms it’s been released on — that’s Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC. CEO John Riccitiello broke the news during the company’s Q3 fiscal 2010 earnings conference call a few moments ago.

    According to SEC documents filed, an unannounced Dragon Age title — Dragon Age 2 we may only assume — will be released before March 31 next year, or in the company’s Q4 of fiscal 2010.

    EA preparing new Epic shooter, Dragon Age, more

    February 8, 2010 | By admin In Video Games | Comments(0)

    A recent SEC filing shows that EA has a few surprises up its sleeve for their fiscal year 2011. The document shows that a to-be-announced “Dragon Age Title” and a co-published “Shooter from Epic” will be out in Q4 (ends March 31, 2011).

    The Dragon Age title is on the way to the consoles, PC as well as handhelds, while the Epic game will be released for consoles and PC only.

    An unnamed “Action Title” (marked down as “Console Full Game Download”), a “Fighting Title” (Q4) a “Spore Title” (Q4) and two Need For Speed games (one in Q3, other in Q4) were listed as well.

    EA: Medal of Honor before September

    February 8, 2010 | By admin In Uncategorized | Comments(0)

    With Battlefield: Bad Company 2 just a month off, we figured EA would leave a sizeable gap between that and the release of its other modern war shooter, Medal of Honor. The end of the year sounded about right, but it could now be as early as July this year, according to a recent SEC filing from EA.

    The title is pinned for a Q2 fiscal 2011 release, which covers from July to September 2010. Most likely we’ll see it in the latest month, then, but knowing that it isn’t too far off now gets our engine fired up a bit more.

    New hardware in the works, Miyamoto confirms

    February 8, 2010 | By admin In Video Games | Comments(0)

    Reconfirming what president Satoru Iwata said a few weeks ago, Shigeru Miyamoto has revealed that Nintendo does indeed have new hardware in the works. The news came as the Mario man was speaking at the 13th Annual Japan Media Arts Festival over the weekend.

    Late last month Iwata said that Nintendo engineers are developing new hardware, which was followed up last week by a rumor about Nintendo possibly unveiling a new platform at the Game Developers Conference next month — a thought perhaps best digested with recent quotes from Nintendo’s top men about the next Wii ‘needing something new‘ and that it can’t be ‘just an HD upgrade‘.

    During his talk, Miyamoto also mentioned that he’s working on a brand new Wii MotionPlus game.

    Futuremark is showing off a few bits from Moonrise today, the upcoming free downloadable content pack for Shattered Horizon. The shots above show off each of the four new maps floating towards the PC-exclusive zero gravity shooter — “an MMC cargo ship lured into a trap by the ISA, a huge mass driver installation, the broken remains of a luxury lunar hotel and fragments of what was a massive communications dish on the Moon.”

    Futuremark doesn’t offer a release date quite yet but does say the work on the maps is “almost complete” and that more details should arrive “soon”.

    EndWar 2 put “on the backburner”

    February 8, 2010 | By admin In Uncategorized | Comments(0)

    The sequel to Ubisoft’s fully voice-controlled RTS Tom Clancy’s EndWar has been put on hold, according to then Ubisoft Shangai — the studio that developed the first game — creative director Michael de Plater.

    Without going into any details, “It’s on the backburner,” he simply told VG247.

    First news of EndWar 2 came last summer when De Plater said they “have a really good understanding of what to do,” and that they’ve already solved many of “the hardest problems, which are accessibility, camera, controls, rendering that many characters, having that game work in 3D, our online as well, having persistent campaigns, having persistent player armies”

    “..so we’ve kind of done the hard stuff,” he said.

    Final Fantasy XIII DLC question answered?

    February 8, 2010 | By admin In Video Games | Comments(0)

    It appears the evasive answer to the ‘will it or won’t it?’ question in the case of Final Fantasy XIII’s downloadable content may have been answered by the game itself; retailer GameStop has the backside of the Xbox 360 version’s box up on their site and it unmistakably shows that the will indeed have “game-content download”.

    Past reports on the matter have been somewhat conflicting but, unless GameStop decided to put together their own box art for some ungodly reason, looks like the answer’s now clear.
