Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order – Designing BD-1 Featurette October 22, 2019
Posted by Maniac in Game News.add a comment
We’re really looking forward to the next major Star Wars game and if its previews are any indication Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order may be the best Star Wars game EA has ever produced…not that the bar is very high on that goal post.
This video is a behind the scenes look at one of the game’s major characters, your personal droid. BD-1 was created specifically for this new game and continues the tradition of robots being a part of the Star Wars universe.
Somebody ask Disney’s Imagineers something for me, “Are we going to be able to build our own custom BD-1 droids at Disney Parks?” I want one!
That’s not the only Star Wars news we have for you guys. For some reason that escapes all logic, Lucasfilm decided to air the final trailer for the highly-anticipated Star Wars Episode 9 during a live broadcast I cant imagine any Star Wars fan had any interest in watching, a sports event. If you happened to miss that event because you had literally anything better to do, I don’t blame you. Here’s yesterday’s final trailer for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.
Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order coming November 15th, 2019 to the Xbox One, PC and PS4.

Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines 2 Delayed October 16, 2019
Posted by Maniac in Game News.add a comment
I’ve been looking forward to playing a sequel to the original Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines since the end of 2004. Now it looks like I will be waiting just a bit longer. It is my sad duty to inform you all that Paradox Interactive has delayed their upcoming sequel past their previous release date of Q1 2020.
You can read their official word on the delay here. I have to say I’m okay with this delay as the world Paradox is creating (based on the early previews) is huge with a branching interconnected story. Polishing and testing a world that complex takes time. Of course those of us who have played the original Bloodlines will be the first to say how they wished that game had received several more months of play testing before that game was released. I’m hopeful the sequel will improve on the original.
Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines 2 is coming later in 2020 to PC, Xbox One and PS4.

Nintendo and The Pokemon Company released an all new trailer for Pokemon Sword and Shield earlier today. We’re going to take a look at some new Gigantamax Pokémon today, and what you can do in-game to obtain them!
I’m glad Nintendo is offering special ways to get Pokémon this time around. I guess you all have a reason to keep your Let’s Go save safe.

Nintendo has released a very minor system software update, version 9.0.1, for the Nintendo Switch that addresses unspecific bugs. The new update is not currently required to access Nintendo Network but it’s only a matter of time before it becomes required.
I recommend updating your Joy Con controllers’ firmware following the software update to improve performance. You can thankfully do that without having to leave the controller docked in the Switch tablet.

Ghostbusters: The Video Game Rereleased on Modern Consoles October 4, 2019
Posted by Maniac in Game News.add a comment
Ghostbusters: The Video Game, a video game written and starring the original Ghostbusters cast that continued the story past the second film, is considered by many to be the third GB film. Having played it myself upon its original release I can confirm I share those feelings.
Some time ago, Sony announced their plans to rerelease the original game remastered for modern game consoles. Now, it looks like that game is ready to launch. Here’s the original launch trailer.
This will have to hold us over until Jason Reitman’s film comes out.
Ghostbusters: The Video Game is out now on PC, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PS4.
