What a ****ing disgusting company Blizzard have turned into.

Activision Blizzard HR accused of shredding documents relating to abuse allegations

California has expanded its lawsuit against the publisher, but Activision denies shredding documents.

[Exe Gesis]

Any company that shreds documents or deletes digital records whilst under investigation should automatically be found guilty and punished to the full extent

I'd just like to congratulate everyone on this board for that we still don't have a CoD Vanguard thread

The **** is a CoD Vanguard?

This game isn't available in Australia on xbox because of it's age rating according to devs....a 'few drug references'

Our classification system and treatment of games continues to be a joke.

Remedy apparently still own the IP so I wonder if we're being buttered up for a sequel

 

[Quivorir]

I think I have worked out how to play Hitman 1 and 2 in the Hitman 3 game now so will start them soon.

Amazons "New World" is out now. Anyone played it? I had somehow never heard of it til this morning so blindly bought it to check it out later on tonight hopefully.

I thought it looked interesting but for now I'm not going anywhere near New World.

Playing Amazon's New World MMO Is Bricking RTX 3090 Graphics Cards

UPDATE: New World developers deny any widespread GPU issues with the game, but roll out a patch 'that caps frames per second on our menu screen' to 'further reassure customers.'

Pretty sure it turned out that there were only a few GPUs that got bricked and that subsequent investigation by the manufacturers revealed that the reason was poor soldering on some SMDs. If MMOs are your thing, I don't think this is really a reason to avoid this game

IIRC you don't even have a 3090 for it to brick

EDIT: Here's an article on it

Sorry 'New World', those bricked RTX 3090's were actually EVGAs fault

EVGA has announced that "poor workmanship" on the cards was responsible

Was released today. You would feel hard done by if you bought Crysis 1 last year when it was remastered for PS4. That game alone is $45 on the PS Store. Crysis 2 is $45 (or $32 with PS Plus as they are already running a 30% off sale for 2 and 3) and Crysis 3 is $39 (or $28 with PS Plus). The trilogy bundle is $76.

Buying Crysis 1 when it was first released literally means you will be paying a lot more for the series than if you waited to buy the trilogy today as part of the bundle.

Ubisoft Reportedly Developing New Splinter Cell Game - IGN

Unless Nathan Fillion ever plays Nathan Drake I don't think I'm going to get the Uncharted vibe from this. It's nothing at all like him. I know it's supposed to be a young Drake, but Mark Wahlberg would have IMO been a better option than him playing Sully.

 

[Quivorir]

Hahaha I lost it at that Scottish fella. That's exactly how my dad sounds and how we react. No problem with Holland as drake, maybe have given him a bit of stubble like Nate always had. I do have a problem we Wahlberg as Sully. It just doesn't fit. You can also see its going to play out exactly like the games. A double double cross. Also appreciated the plane scene from UC3

We’ve waited long enough for a new splinter cell game, I friggen love all of them and a potentially new game has me hyped. I would love them to go the Hitman route and start fresh, with a young Sam Fisher voiced by Michael Ironside again.

I just want a new SC game. Loved the originals dating back to 2002 on the PS2!

Yeah how good were the early Splinter Cell games

Huh, it actually has quite a bit of actual gameplay in it. That's kind of cool
