"With Capcom likely having all but taken away the reigns to “Devil May Cry,” Ninja Theory may have outed some unannounced project in a new studio reel from the UK developer.While the reel seems to be just a recount of the games the studio has made – behind the scenes and in-game footage from “Heavenly Sword,” “Enslaved” and “DmC” are all featured in the video – there is also what appears to be early footage of an unannounced game that borrows a “Psychonauts”–style aesthetic and may star a blue-haired female protagonist (seen beating up some enemies in quick-spliced cuts between known titles)."
"PC games giant Valve has revealed Pipeline, a new approach to help inform and encourage young and aspiring games developers."
"The new Pipeline website will be populated with interviews and FAQ pages discussing different aspects of the games industry.It is also going to be managed entirely by teenagers, according to Valve managing director Gabe Newell."
"Earlier this week our resident rumor monger Eric B. Stephen brought word that former WWE champion Ultimate Warrior was likely to be included in the upcoming WWE 2K14 video game that will be released in October, the first in the new series since leaving THQ.Now, reports from both the Wrestling Observer and PWInsider are confirming as much.Indeed, the WWE Games Twitter account has been tweeting out hints of the big announcement — and they’re obvious, too, like “hails from Parts Unknown” and “Is not in the Hall of Fame” — accompanied by close up shots of Warrior. According to the Observer, the announcement will happen tomorrow and Warrior will represent the big get for the new game, much like Brock Lesnar and Mike Tyson were big gets in video games in year’s past."
