So where would a new "Mutant League Hockey" be developed? It's both sports and entertainment. Previous one reused their hockey game engine but it was highly entertaining to shove a player into the hole blown in the ice by dynamite only to have their body floating under the ice.
@old-dad @BAMozzy That "may" be true. I'm also seeing the following on news sites just now:
It is now being reported by Fellowship of Fans that Embracer has leased just the Tomb Raider IP to Amazon for $600 million. Their original story said that the rights were sold outright to Amazon, but they have since changed the wording to say "leased" to Amazon. Meaning that Amazon may not own the rights to the franchise but that they are permitted to do most anything with the IP that may include new games, other media like television, and even merchandise.
@BAMozzy Really? I must have missed that news piece. I also was under the impression that Amazon was just funding the next Tomb Raider game and that's it.
@Banjo- Sometimes I cannibalize legit controllers or I get some extra buttons from Amazon or ebay. Those may not be official ones but with the real ones, it feels great. I recommend it if you're not too worried about opening up a controller. Just don't scrape up the grip lines like I have once with using the wrong tool to open the controller up.
@Cashews The non-starfield version of this headset was highly acclaimed. It may be the way to go if you're interested in this theme/game, or just go with the Xbox one released for the 20th anniversary.
Even though I probably shouldn't be, I am interested in Crime Boss Rockay City. Even though it was destroyed in ratings, I'm just intrigued in the whole thing about getting all of these celebrities together as characters in this game.
Thank you for the review!! Im likely going to get one, if not two, and play around with updating the face buttons to also be color correct to xbox branding.
@Somebody I'm not saying the game is getting released or anything. Just that the video tease is using specific music from Fable 1, like from a shopkeepers place.
@Somebody "I don't think that was actually a fable tease" You don't think the Xbox video of following a glitter trail set along Fable music was a Fable teaser??
Isn't this the exact same design that leaked a few months ago but then it came out it was just a one-off mod by a prolific modder, out of, maybe, China?? @Kezelpaso
I think Austin Eruption on YouTube just happened to cover Fuse in one of his most recent videos. He also talked about how EA bungled this game by putting their stink on it and removing the charm of Insomniac , of which you can see in the difference between the origibal promo trailer for Fuse and then with what was delivered.
Going from the specific title of this article straight down to the three bullet points makes this very confusing. Missed the critical word of "avoid". Phew!
Definitely enjoyed these on the PC years back. I did help fund them through Kickstarter. I even was one who super enjoyed the FPS on 360/PC by FASA Studios.
