Awesome podcast guys I also think Microsoft didn't do a good press conference they keep focusing on kinect games that were just horrible MS should have launched a new console for 2012 or 2013 that would have been a better business choice in Xbox long term goal.

Great Podcast guys..thx for the shoutout. LOL @ the Tor Davis look alike.

Enate5092d ago (Edited 5092d ago )

One of the few podcast that is funny and don't sugar coat it. Everyone else has fallen victim to being flown out here an there. An everything is a must buy, I mean how the industry has fallen. Not step yo game up pod cast though still cracking the whip on em.

Enate5092d ago

Yea I felt that was stupid that Bioware made it seem like kinect was what made the voice commands possible. When PS2 games like Socom have had since way back. They need to quit bsing and just give it to everyone. That was a franchise improvement I felt they yanked out for kinect.

Not on the US store right now which sucks

andy857h ago

Im definitely going to import it if possible. Hopefully PlayAsia will have it

jznrpg6h ago(Edited 6h ago)

@andy85 so you can get it from PlayAsia no Tarrifs but shipping is 23$ at least ,but it is an option. A little less than 50$ with shipping. I had to have it

andy855h ago

Coming out at £44 ($60) here. Jeez as much as I want it that's a little bit of a stupid price. Managed to find it for £35 elsewhere. Still crazy for a mug. Might wait and see if the square Enix store get it

SAG-AFTRA Files Over A.I. Darth Vader In Fortnite

SAG-AFTRA Files Over A.I. Darth Vader in Fortnite claiming this was done without notification and has filed accordingly.

spoonard19h ago(Edited 19h ago)

It's just a complaint, not a lawsuit, and it's completely unwarranted.

Garethvk18h ago

I said filed which they did. Filed a complaint.

VersusDMC17h ago

James earl jones sold his voice for use for Darth Vader after his passing and his estate said they approved it.

So i don't know why SAG is getting involved as it makes it seem like they are going against james earl jones wishes or just wanted a cut...

Garethvk16h ago

They are concerned about A.I. replacing live talent. It's an unusual stance as you are correct; he left his voice and his family approved. The union is saying doing this versus using a live actor sets a bad precedent going forward. The use of A.I. has been a huge issue in the recent labor deals.

VersusDMC13h ago

Well this is also an interactive AI Darth Vader that would have made live talent impossible unless they think a actor being in Fortnight 24/7 is an acceptable solution.

They should concentrate on cases that are possible to be done with live talent and that haven't been given blessing or sold by the original actor(for which they should have the right to sell)

"James earl jones sold his voice for use for Darth Vader after his passing and his estate said they approved it."

I have to say if James approved this after his death... that would be... um...

Do you mean he approved it while he was alive for when he passed?

VersusDMC8h ago

It's reported that he gave permission before his death and his estate(which i asume is his family) says so as well.

spoonard2h ago

Because SAG-AFTRA are trade unions. They are the Hollywood mafia protecting their profits from anything they feel could undermine them. It's all about the almighty dollar, not artists.

I'm not so sure they can, most talent that made the old games as good as they were, has left Bioware.

RaidenBlack1d 15h ago

They can always recruit old fellas,
And also, new devs can always learn and also new indie devs are very passionate evident from the amazing indie games heavy with these gameplay features.

Michiel19891d 12h ago

I don't think anyone would wanna come back after the stories that were told from Anthem development. I just don't see it happening. It's a bit similar to blizz, some of the talent has come back there, but there has been a shift in the studio's culture and also what the higher ups expect/demand of them

matt1391d 15h ago

After andromeda and veilguard i think it’s assured that the bioware we once knew has gone, I have little hope for me4. Hopefully i’m wrong.

anast1d 13h ago

The can't. But they wouldn't even if they could.

goken1d 10h ago

Yeah… also if pigs decided evolve wings, they could fly…
