    Former Sony Employee Sues Nintendo Over 3DS Screen Tech

    Gaming News that doesn't need a thread, Apr 20, 2011, 10:51 PM, YourPSHome.net, 2364
    The 3DS allegedly violates a patent held by Seijiro Tomita.
    The 3DS's must unique feature -- its glasses-free 3D display -- has gotten Nintendo sued. Tomita Technologies alleges in a lawsuit filed in a New York district court last month that Nintendo is violating a patent, number 7,417,664, which was filed for in 2003 by Seijiro Tomita and issued in August 2008. Tomita is described in the complaint as an "accomplished scientist and engineer" who worked at Sony for nearly 30 years before retiring in 2002. He began filing for patents after leaving the company, dozens of which now exist that list him as the inventor or co-inventor.

    Deus Ex Leakers Targeted by Lawsuit

    Gaming News that doesn't need a thread, Apr 20, 2011, 10:51 PM, YourPSHome.net, 2364
    Prior to E3, an unfinished version of Deus Ex: Human Revolution was leaked onto the Internet. With the game not coming out until August, what was made available was a preview build intended only for the media. In response, it's come to light that Square Enix is suing fifteen unidentified individuals. The lawsuit (PDF) was filed on June 22 in Washington. The reason for that is the leak happened through Steam, the digital distribution service owned by Bellevue, Washington-based Valve. Among those who were allowed to access the preview build was someone working for Italian magazine Giochi per il Mio Computer. This individual's Steam account was logged into on May 29 -- without permission -- by "one or more" of the 15 defendants from an IP address that doesn't belong to the magazine.

    Rockstar Moving Towards Producing Movies Based on its Games?

    Gaming News that doesn't need a thread, Apr 20, 2011, 10:51 PM, YourPSHome.net, 2364
    A new trademark filing for Rockstar Films looks to be more expansive than the original.
    A trademark filing for Rockstar Films has been discovered, which may indicate the Grand Theft Auto maker is closer than ever to creating movies based on its games. This isn't the first time the name Rockstar Films has come up. A trademark for the name was originally filed in 2004 and was described as providing "entertainment services in the nature of a live-action and/or animated television program series." Rockstar Games -- through Rockstar Films -- was credited as executive producer on two films, The Football Factoryand Sunday Driver.

    Uncharted Film's New Director May be Limitless' Neil Burger

    Gaming News that doesn't need a thread, Apr 20, 2011, 10:51 PM, YourPSHome.net, 2364
    With David O. Russell out of the picture, Burger may now helm the movie adaptation
    David O. Russell decided to abandon the film version of Uncharted back in May for what were said to be "creative differences." It wasn't the first time he had left, but it will be the last. Variety reports that Neil Burger has been offered the job to write and direct the film. Burger's most recent film, Limitless, starred Bradley Cooper and Robert de Niro, the latter of which was a possible actor for Russell's Uncharted. Limitlesswas fairly well received, garnering a 70% average rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Burger's previous two projects were The Illusionistand The Lucky Ones, which have 74% and 36% ratings, respectively.

    Dragon Age II: Legacy, the Game's First Big Story-Based DLC, Lands This Month

    Gaming News that doesn't need a thread, Apr 20, 2011, 10:51 PM, YourPSHome.net, 2364
    EA will release the DLC pack later in July on PC, 360, and PS3.
    Dragon Age II was a disappointment to some, and BioWare is aware of that. It's hoping it change that with Legacy, the game's "first major story-based" DLC. Dragon Age II: Legacy will be on display at San Diego Comic Con later this month, though EA demoed the game for the crowd at its Summer Showcase today. BioWare said the DLC will go deeper into the Hawke family story, particularly that of the father. Legacy will take players to new areas (including an ancient Gray Warden prison) where they'll fight brand-new enemies and encounter an enemy so powerful that it's been kept a secret by the Gray Wardens for thousands of years.

    Castlevania: Harmony of Despair Hits PS3 This Summer

    Gaming News that doesn't need a thread, Apr 20, 2011, 10:51 PM, YourPSHome.net, 2364
    Konami confirms reports of a PSN version of the XBLA Castlevania title.Confirming a report from late in May, Konami has announced that Castlevania: Harmony of Despair (not Dissonance; that's the GBA game) is coming to PlayStation 3. HD was previously an Xbox Live Arcade exclusive. It came out as a part of last year's Summer of Arcade promotion in August and subsequently saw the release of quite a few DLC packs. Before its release on XBLA, producer Koji Igarashi said we might see a PSN version if the XBLA version sold well enough. "Right now I'm focusing on Xbox Live Arcade," he said last June. "But there might be a possibility with that. I hope this one sells, and then we can think about PSN."

    I'm not even sure what the above is about, a remake/new film version of Serenity?

    And no one can replace Nathan Fillion, period.

    LOL No, there's an Uncharted movie in the works & they're thinking of Mark Wahlberg as Nathen Drake. Those were my choices to play as Drake, Nathan Fillion or Noah Wyle.

    Jul 7, 2011Shadows Of The Damned on PlayStation 3 Review

    [video=youtube;G5scJGzYkAU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5scJGzYkAU[/video]
    Shadows Of The Damned is destined to be one of this year?s unappreciated gems. Suda51?s creative madness is complimented by Shinji Mikami?s grounded gameplay design, concluding in an accessible third-person shooter enhanced by a hearty dose of insanity.
    What?s It All About?
    The initial announcement of Shadows Of The Damned left us disappointed. When we originally heard that some of Japan?s most revered names ? No More Heroes? Suda51, Resident Evil?s Shinji Mikami, and Silent Hill?s Akira Yamaoka ? were collaborating on a brand new horror IP, our mind started to get ahead of itself with all the psychological horror possibilities.

    There are a lot of cars in Ubisoft?s upcoming Driver: San Francisco. That?s evidenced by the game?s latest trailer, which boasts a roster of more than 120 licensed vehicles. From classics like the Cadillac Eldorado through to modern favourites like the Aston Martin Vantage, Driver?s got you covered.We?re starting to hear some super postitive things about Driver: San Francisco actually. It certainly sounds like the delay?s done the trick. We?re looking forward to playing the final version later in the year.In the mean time, check out the game?s latest trailer after the jump.

    I thought Nathan Draked looked like Fillion while I was playing the game. And his personality is the same.

    Btw I read online that someone had just introduced his little girl to Star wars. Then he was watching Firefly and his little girl got confused. It was Star Wars. it was in space. Had spaceships. And she pointed to Fillion and said It had HANS SOLO in it!!!

    Ya know... never thought of it before, but Mal reynolds really was Hans Solo!!

    Uncharted 3 out earlier in the UK

    Gaming News that doesn't need a thread, Apr 20, 2011, 10:51 PM, YourPSHome.net, 2364
    Here?s a quick*heads up? relatively useless one at that but one nonetheless. Naughty Dog?s upcoming third-person awesome Uncharted 3: Drake?s Deception, is hitting store shelves sooner in the UK than initially revealed. Our favorite fortune hunter?s next adventures will be playable a whole two daysearlier, making the official street date November 2nd instead of 4th, which for the moment changes as little as an ant is tall.Drake?s Deceptionwon?t be explained for another four months, but let us remind you that the beta is public and available as of several days ago now, so go put those trigger-happy fingers to work.

    Bizarre dev starts new indie studio

    Gaming News that doesn't need a thread, Apr 20, 2011, 10:51 PM, YourPSHome.net, 2364
    No sooner had Bizarre Creations closed it doors, new studios by were being founded by former staff left and right. Hogrocket and Lucid Games both generated from an unfortunate destiny and it seems we?re not done with reporting about ex-employees pursuing new goals within the industry.Former Bizarre man Matt Cavanagh has formed a new independent studio going by the name of Totem Games. So far, it would seem this is a one-man operation given Cavanagh is the sole register of said company. There?s been a lack of info whether or not he?s cooking something up already, but he obviously is, otherwise he wouldn?t have started a videogamestudio. He?s keeping quiet about it, though, saying nothing more than is necessary.
