They probably wouldn’t have ran the Mighty No. 9 pizza commercial As someone who has been importing since a young age, I’ve been thinking a lot about localizations lately. Between Deep Silver putting out the“unforgivable” pizza commercialforMighty No. 9, NIS being upfront aboutchanges toCriminal Girls 2, and Nintendo not being upfront at all down to the wire when it comes to Treehouse alterations, there have been a lot of opinions flying around....

Spinning praise for Gone Home; Papers, Please The Last of Uswriter and co-director Neil Druckmann recently spoke toGamesIndustry Internationalabout the game’s development, advancing technology (and subsequent diminishing returns), and lessons to be learned from independent games. Druckmann said he was “blown away” by recent indie darlingsPapers, PleaseandGone Home.The Last of Us, in some capacity, basically functions as an exponentially expandedGone Home, so the infatuation makes sense. Druckmann believes indies are paving the way for change in AAA development, noting, “As more and more examples [of ‘gigantic shifts’ in storytelling] come to light, I think more people are pursuing better narratives....

A short list, but not the easiest Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes‘ Achievement list has been leaked, and it’s a curious one. Provided nothing gets shifted, the full 1,000 points are broken down between a mere 15 Achievements. Curious still, with the exception of the “Reunion” Achievement, all of them seem to be extracurricular: complete these side objectives, collect these tapes, unlock these bonuses. I’m going to stop just short of saying this looks like an easy 1,000 though, as a few require S-Rank completion for all mission and side ops....
The long-awaitedModNation Racerstitle update, version 1.02 hits this week, August 4 at 2:00 AM Pacific, to be exact. As the title of this story suggests, it shortens load times (yay!), along with a number of other fixes. Also new in version 1.02: It took its sweet time, but it sounds like it’ll be worth it. If the load times are decreased as advertised, this means my impatient butt can finally enjoy the game without getting distracted and doing something else before a race begins....
But it’s okay – they fixed other “arguably worse” ones too! Minecraftdeveloper Mojang has addressed a serious security flaw followinga blog postthat publicly chastised the company for not responding to proof that a security flaw could cripple the game’s servers. In July 2013,programmerAmmar Askar“responsibly and privately disclosed the problem” to theMinecraftteam and asked for updates in “one month intervals over the course of 3 months”. Feeling “ignored or given highly unsatisfactory responses”, Askar broke his silence at the end of last week, frustrated that the vulnerability — which allows you to “crash any server, and starve the actual machines of the CPU and memory” — was not addressed despite two major updates and dozens of minor patches....
