Well, last night was certainly illuminating, wasn’t. We actually got some solid information on games and hardware, a recurring motif if you will when it comes to Gamescom. That’s what I love about the event. Well that, and all the extra work means that I really sleep pretty bloody well when its done.

In Other News: Prepare to pay monthly for some old scrolls, Call of Duty is cheap between consoles, Castlevania gets a date and Mel Gibson has some impressive guns.

Here’s the news that we didn’t post today, because we were too busy trying to justify some medicinal cocaine so that we would have the energy to work today.

News

The Elder Scrolls Online will have monthly subscriptions
Call of Duty Ghosts upgrade from PS3 to PS4 costs $10
Rocksmith 2014 will be a completely different game
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 steps into the light in February 2014
Ridiculous Fishing brings in nearly $1 million since launch
Microsoft control over indie prices is legally similar to Sony
Peggle 2 looks like everything that I want it to be
Playstation 4 will also feature Twitch streaming

        I wonder where the Admiral is. He is usually quick to point out the left-to-right.

            Much to learn about marriage you still have padawan

            And these marriage lessons I will never learn then. Apparently living with your parents to support them so they don’t lose their house+car means you are an irresponsible loser who does not deserve a relationship.

            Hence my perviness and the visits to the “dance academies” around Gauteng 😛

      Wow, that looks cool! I hope without Jay “ruinor of games” Wilson that this will be the epic we deserve! I might get it in the hopes that the story is at least better scripted and not idiotic!

      “The Elder Scrolls games are all about allowing the player to go where they want, be who they want, and do what they want,” Firor said. “We feel that putting pay gates between the player and content at any point in game ruins that feeling of freedom, and just having one small monthly fee for 100% access to the game fits the IP and the game much better than a system where you have to pay for features and access as you play.”

    In the not too distant future we’ll all look like the header girl, under-fed and without clothes due to the pricing of next-gen gaming.
