    Nothing really, you can vote on the reversible cover for the game but that's about it.

    There might be a bit more to show at Gamescom next week, but I'm not sure tbh. Most previews of the game have been pretty mediocre to negative, so its not sounding too promising.




    The Dead Island 2 trailer was actually quite good. Here it is for anyone who hasn't seen it

    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taQ3Rjm7k-U"]Dead Island 2 Trailer - (E3 2014) - YouTube[/ame]


    It's certainly a different tone from this (which was apparently made by a company based in Glasgow)

    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZqrG1bdGtg"]Dead Island: Official Announcement Trailer - YouTube[/ame]




    I agree with you about Fallout 4, hopefully we don't have to wait too much longer for an announcement.

    To answer your question though

    Bully 2 - It's constantly rumored, and I wouldn't be surprised to see it one day. I'm not sure if they should stick with the high school setting or do a college/uni style one instead.

    L.A. Noire 2/*Place* Noire - Not necessarily a sequel but some sort of spiritual successor to L.A. Noire would be good. It had some good ideas but any sequel would need to improve the open world/free roam aspects.

    Battlefield: Bad Company 3 - Although I'm not the biggest fps fan, the Bad Company games were pretty good. I preferred the more lighthearted approach the games took in comparison to COD/Battlefield 3&4, and had a lot more fun playing them.




    I've got some more news and updates



    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    Sony have been releasing teaser trailers hinting at a reveal during Gamescom next week. The reveal in question is believed to be the heavily rumored re-debut of Until Dawn.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    Alongside the news that the game has been delayed until February 2015, there's some new Evolve gameplay out featuring the 'Kraken'.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    A listing on Amazon has seemingly leaked a Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition for PS4 and Xbox One.

    A sequel to the game is currently in development under the working title 'Triad Wars', so this definitive edition may be used as a way to drum up some extra interest.


    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    BioWare have released another teaser trailer ahead of the reveal of their new IP (rumored to be a horror game) at Gamescom.

    A couple of announcements regarding FIFA 15 have been made this week, and depending on what leagues/teams you're interested in this may be good or bad news.

    The bad news is that FIFA 15 will not include any Brazilian domestic sides, due to issues surrounding licencing of players in the league. The national team and players playing for teams outwith Brazil wont be affected. EA released a statement on the issue


    The good news for fans of the Premier League is that all 20 teams stadiums will be included in FIFA 15 (annoying that our stadium still isn't in the game).


    For more info on both announcements here's the articles detailing them.

    No Brazilian domestic teams

    Not too disappointed to miss out on the brazilian league's. Less likely to run into someone online with a team of all 5 star skill players that just annoy you with pointless tricks

    Ryse: Son of Rome is being ported to PC, and will support 4K resolution.

    Crytek have explained their decision to port the game to PC (apparently they aren't happy with the Xbox One's sales) as well as the possibility of brining it to PS4 at a later date.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In other Crytek related news, Deep Silver have confirmed that the former company still possess the rights to the TimeSplitters series. Deep Silver who recently purchased the Homefront IP from Crytek also purchased Crytek UK (who are currently developing Homefront: The Revolution).

    Crytek UK (formerly known as Freed Radical Designs) who had previously worked on the series before being bought by Crytek, did not retain the rights to the series when they were sold by Crytek.

    There's been some more news (of sorts) regarding the Last of Us movie.

    Neil Druckmann creative director and writer of the Last of Us (the game) has confirmed/suggested that certain parts of the upcoming movie (for which he's currently the screenwriter of) will be 'quite different' from the game.


    Based on this, I can definitely see them cutting most of the early parts of the game (involving Boston and Tess), Bill, and maybe some of the Autumn & Winter sections. Personally I'm not to keen on the idea of the Last of Us as a movie, I think it would work a lot better as a TV series with a fairly decent budget.

    It's a huge task trying to make a good movie for TLOU. As Druckmann says, it's 15 hours worth of a game being shoehorned into a 2 hour movie.

    They need to include the climax to the Winter section, that was the best part of the game and, at least for me, the most emotional.

    Theyre taking the * with all these ports imo, i can understand it with games like TLOU and gta5 but whilst sleeping dogs and metro are good games i dont think they are significant or good enough to justify bringing them out on next gen.

    It's still very early days, and I probably should wait until there's at least trailer; but I can't see this being a good movie. I think all the little details like the little bits of dialogue (which were important in establishing in Joel and Ellie's relationship), and even some of the collectibles made the game much deeper.

    Trying to condense a 15 hour game, which never really felt like it had any unecessary parts, into a 2/2.5 hour movie seems like a pretty big ask.

    I'll put this next bit in spoilers just to be safe .......

    Personally I hope Henry & Sam make the cut, because for me they have the most emotional moment in the game (with the ending possibly tied with it). I wouldn't mind seeing Bill either, as his section had one of the best, subtle moments of the game.




    I think the Metro Redux isn't all that bad tbh. The second game's already on PS4, and they've completely remade the first game (which will be it's first time on Sony's consoles) on the Last Light engine.

    I can see your point with Sleeping Dogs though. It's a good game, but it dosen't really need a re-release. I think this just comes down to they're being a sequel due out, and SE wanting to drum up a bit of intrest.



    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Just to let everyone know, Gamescom (one of the big three gaming events) started yesterday. There's apparently going to be a few new games revealed, plus more on the Assassins Creed games, Bloodbourne, Far Cry 4 and more.


    Anyway, here's some more bits of news



    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Dead Island 2 has got its first gameplay video


    [ame]http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1IKsV5EOV5U[/ame]


    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Dying Light (by the developers who made the original two Dead Island games) has a new trailer showing off its 4 person co-op

    [ame]http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ufeNUNvV0dQ[/ame]


    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare's multiplayer mode has just got a reveal trailer.

    [ame]http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=bj3-RsyJKfA[/ame]


    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Sony have released another teaser trailer for Until Dawn (possibly the worst kept secret of Gamescom). It's been rumoured that the game will use the Project Morpheus VR headset.

    It's set to be revealed later today, so we'll know soon enough.

    [ame]http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=sE6HuDUMep0[/ame]


    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    Sony Computer Entertainment America recently filed a trademark for 'A Million Ways to Die' (possibly not in the West :52:). It's labelled as being a "Downloadable computer game software via a global computer network and wireless devices."

    It could have something to do with the teaser trailers and the rumoured Until Dawn re-reveal, or something new entirely.


    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A new Toy Soldiers game, Toy Soldiers: War Chest has been announced.


    [ame]http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aVZW0c795Cg[/ame]



    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Kano has officially been revealed for Mortal Kombat X


    [ame]http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2OCvziZ6IBU[/ame]


    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I mentioned in an earlier post about the WWE 2K15 story mode focusing on various rivalries from the company past & present, with it being described as mini documentaries.

    Well the first two of these rivalries have been announced as Shawn Michaels vs Triple H, and John Cena vs CM Punk

    Surely Stone Cold and Vince McMahon feud will be in it? Loved there feud. I've actually no played a wrestling game for years, a bought WWE 12 but never played it more than once.

    And I bought WWE 13 few month back not played it yet, but hoping it'll be good with the Attitude era.
