Welcome to the weekly video games on Angget. Expect a new story every Monday or Tuesday, break in two parts. The first is a place for short articles about video game trends and me related titles, Jess Kundett, a reporter, who has covered the industry for more than 13 years. The other includes last week’s video game stories that you need to know, including some headlines from outside the angijet.
Please enjoy – and I’ll see you next week.
How long is I read by reading another story about it Death Standing 2 Is As long as you will leave KatasanI’m going to throw. At what point do we collectively keep the controller down during 10 hours of cinemas and say, in fact, this is not a great game? Not because the game parts are no. They are, in fact, are wonderful – but because an important part of the experience is not really interactive. Instead of the first video game, when does a Hudo Kojima Project as a CGI film, with moments of interaction, get more accurate?
I am not really trying to solve the “video game of thesis” puzzle, but in view of the recent headlines, this is a conversation that has been in my mind. Death Standing 2 There are reviews, Nile Dick is out in HBO and the naughty dog is returning from full time, and Amy’s nomination video game has brought 18 18 nodes. Meanwhile, the holidays are once again shaking the gaming industry, thousands of people have been fired on the Xbox this month, as well as the cancellation of several studio closures and sports. One of the most amazing titles to get X was the project, Blackbird, an intelligent voice -based MMO of Elder Scarrels Studio Xenimx Online. Blackbird Was allegedly canceled In favor of allocating resources for the development of Fallout 5A series of mainstreams included after Amazon’s success Conclusion TV shows in 2024.
Video games and Hollywood exchange are not a new point. Even For me – But it’s only more relevant over time. Sony, in particular, has been strictly bent over a cross -media strategy with a remarkable investment in television, mobile phones and film adaptations of her video game franchises, and has just published the Kojima Production. Death Standing 2Which works for electric stick for this whole conversation.
Cozema is easy to choose because he has been so addressing his desire to make films, and properly, his games have only increased more cinema over the years. Death Standing And its sequel is the mainstream decorated with Hollywood actors (and Kojima’s favorite directors), which are in the hours of hours of manufactured, non -interactive Katseins. Its next two projects, OD And SeniorBoth have been described as A-List, and “Finding the limits between film and sports”.
I am a huge fan of experimental horror games, and I deeply appreciate Kojima’s eye for the construction of stress and timid action series, but I feel hesitant to be passionate about it OD And Senior. Deep Kojima sank into the Hollywood world, so he loses me. I do not download, install and boot a video game to watch a movie, and when I have an interactive product description of the cinema terms, I don’t feel impressive. Filmmaking barriers are quite different than video game development, and it is useless to see a talented creator to try to force the video games to adapt to the limits of movies or TVs, rather than making them interactive art individually. I feel like Kojima sees the cinema as a target, especially not video games, and this approach breaks my small pixlet heart.
It is especially painful for the video game industry in the era of instability. It is difficult to throw so many money and creativity on such projects that feel more like movies than sports, at a time when it is difficult for fresh and original AAA projects to market it. Video games have not been maximized as an art form – there is more to discover in terms of mechanics, visual, hepatics and deep conversation systems, and there are more stories that can be said only with these specific tools. Watching game development through filmmaking lens reduces everything that makes this medium so powerful. The only Hollywood feature that should be followed by the sports industry is its powerful and active union.
I enjoy the things that are in the brown space among the definitions. In fact, I often prefer them. What I do not enjoy is a misguided imitation that is sold to the audience as an innovation. Finally, I guess what I’m really saying … I’m still not over pt.

King Developers were the architects of their death
One of the most eye -catching details of Microsoft’s sweeping roof earlier this month was the fact that King, behind the studio Candy crushWas added to the firing. King is historically a mini -printing machine that returns high employees, which insulates it from the sixth. But this time at least 200 people were allowed to leave the studio.
