(Some Of) The Big Stuff:
After an estimated seven years of development, Blizzard Entertainment confirmed this week that its World of Warcraft follow-up, Titan, is officially no more. Blizzard never officially announced the game or revealed any assets, but sources tell of a game that was similar, in some ways, to Valve's Team Fortress.
Bungie announced major changes for Destiny this week. In addition to shutting down the Treasure Cave, Bungie plans to tweak weapon balancing, offer new communication options, and tweak Strikes so they feel "less grindy."
Valve's megapopular online PC platform, Steam, continues to grow. Valve announced this week that the service now has 100 million users. More than 1,300 games have been added to Steam this year, which is up substantially year-over-year, as only around 300 games came to Steam in the first nine months of 2013. To help you wade through the flood of new releases, Valve has introduced a major Steam redesign.
The Other Stuff (Stories We Like, But Didn't Cover With a Standalone Post):
Happy birthday, Nintendo! The Mario and Zelda company turned 125 years old this week. What's your favorite Nintendo memory?
Are you a Just Cause fan? Good news, it seems, as we have yet another reason to believe Just Cause 3 is happening. Despite the game being unannounced, someone who reportedly worked on it listed it on their public LinkedIn profile. Whoops!
Sony addressed the hot-topic of game delays this week. UK managing director Fergal Gara tells Kotaku that, sometimes, the right thing to do for a project is to give it more time. "If you've made a big investment and you bring it out half ready, for the wrong reasons, then there's going to be a cost." Agreed.
Singstar is coming to the PlayStation 4 on October 28. You can download the app for free, but you'll need to pay $1.49 per song or $6 for a five-pack of tunes. Don't have a mic? No worries, as Sony will also release a Singstar companion app for iOS and Android devices that turns your smartphone into a microphone.
After being locked away for about ten years, the Elf City in Runescape is finally open to play and plunder.
A new Star Wars game was announced this week, but if you were hoping for a big-budget console/PC game, I'm sorry to say you're out of luck. Star Wars: Galactic Defender is a free-to-play tower defense game for iOS and Android devices from Lucasfilm and DeNA.
The first DLC for Ubisoft's blockbuster open-world game Watch Dogs--Bad Blood--is now available to download for Season Pass owners on consoles and PC. In the campaign, you play as Raymond "T-Bone" Kenney, an eccentric hacker you met in the original campaign.
There is a new world record for Super Mario World, the 1990 SNES game. The new record is 9 minutes and 50 seconds, and it was recorded by a guy wearing Mario pajamas. Of course.
Electronic Arts this week started dishing details on player ratings for NBA Live, beginning with point guards. Can you guess who came out on top? With a 94 rating, the Los Angeles Clippers' Chris Paul is the top-rated PG in the game, followed by Steph Curry (92), Russell Westbrook (91), John Wall (90) and three players--Derrick Rose, Tony Parker, and NBA Live 15 cover star Damian Lillard--at 89.
Looking forward to Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami's horror game The Evil Within? This week, Bethesda published three video interviews featuring Adam Sessler interviewing Mikami about the game. You can watch them here, here, and here. But not here.
I've never understood much of the Halo extended lore, so I was happy to read this excellent Q&A with Microsoft addressing topics like What happened to the Huragok from First Strike and Vergil from Halo 3: ODST, Why Jackals in Halo 4 look reptilian rather than avian like in previous installments, and how the Ur-Didact survived the Halo Array firing.
Until next week!
