It's become usual now, Famitsu this week reveals a new female fighter for Soul Calibur IV. She's called Angol Fia, and hopefully we'll get better scans soon.
Loakum Ugh….scratch that previous comment. The upcoming Game of Thrones video game is a F’in mobile phone game. Why can’t they came an open world GoT game, like Witcher 3 or God of War? (> 3 Months ago)
Loakum By FAR, the upcoming Game of Thrones King’s Road was the Game of the Show! It plays like God of War Ragnarok! :) (> 3 Months ago)
Loakum @Driftwood Awesome! I’m loving it! It does show a much crisper picture and the frame rate looks good! I was playing Stella Blade and Dragonball Soarkling Blast! :) (> 3 Months ago)
Driftwood @Loakum: enjoy, the one Sony sent us will be there on launch day. Coverage will follow asap. (> 3 Months ago)

Driftwood @reneyvane: non ils l'ont publié le 1er octobre et je crois que tu l'avais déjà linkée. ;) (> 3 Months ago)
Driftwood Download is now functional again on Gamersyde. Sorry for the past 53 days or so when it wasn't. (> 3 Months ago)
Driftwood Another (French) livestream today at 2:30 CEST but you're welcome to drop by and speak English. I will gladly answer in English when I get a chance to catch a breath. :) (> 3 Months ago)
Driftwood GSY is getting some nice content at 3 pm CEST with our July podcast and some videos of the Deus Ex Mankind Divided preview build. :) (> 3 Months ago)

People are making too big a deal about both of them. ok, the elf girl doesn't fit? what? and Link, Tira, astaroth or... Darth Vader do? only reason you think they don't belong is because you'd rather have the same set of characters for the rest of the series, which would be boring. Part of the attraction to the soul calibur series is the diversity in characters
People haven't even played as these new characters yet and their already saying they could never play as them. You might find out that they play really well, you might find out otherwise.
the more the better, just wait people!

Seriously, don't presume to know why we don't think certain characters belong. I only ever played SC2, so I'm not interested in the "same set of characters for the rest of the series." That doesn't mean that I can't find certain characters out of place. Part of my attraction to SC2 was that the characters didn't seem completely retarded (ie: no schoolgirls or guitar-playing witches) despite being varied enough.
EDIT

Commented on 2008-03-27 07:13:51 In reply to JigenSure, literature is a better means of storytelling, and sure, videogames are not and never will be fine art.. but to suggest that creative people don't work within the videogame industry would just be flat out insulting to thousands of people.
Games are games, but they're not like sports.. maybe in how they're played or received but certainly not in how they're designed.

Commented on 2008-03-27 07:46:17Literature will be better than most everything, simply because the imagination is limitless
There is a lot of creativity within the game industry, games like Katamari, Killer 7, Gary's Mod, Crazy Taxi, Little Big Planet, Seaman, Guitar Hero, Rock Band, No More Heroes, ETC (the list is huge) wouldn't exist. Machines like the Dreamcast showed us just how creative a collective group of creators can be. The Nintendo DS is continually proving everyone wrong and that the touch technology they decided on was a genius move of creativity. The Nintendo Wii has the possibility of doing the same.
To say their is no creativity in video games is just stupid. Benchmarks would never be made, successful franchises could never be possible. Online consoles wouldn't be rampant, and consoles wouldn't be taking the attention away from pcs as much as they do now.

Commented on 2008-03-27 12:06:40I would say that to fully immerse a person in an interactive story while all they're really doing is staring at flashing lights on a screen takes a great deal of creativity. From the simplest of games like Portal to the more heavy undertakings like Mass Effect or Call of Duty, I don't think that you can play these games for even a few minutes and claim that there is no creative effort that goes in them.
