Konami has secured Inter Milan as an eFootball exclusive team from July 2024. In a note to press, Konami said Inter Milan will feature exclusively within eFootball “and no other video game” from July 2024. That means Inter Milan won’t be in that year’s EA Sports FC (EA will ditch the FIFA brand from 2023). EA will have to come up with a fake name for the club, which just brought on Chelsea flop Romelu Lukaku on loan in a bid to challenge for next season’s league title....

It doesn’t take a detective to resolve this mystery: L.A. Noire was way ahead of its time. Though, as with all mysteries, there’s a plentitude of layers that go along with that fact. The technology simply wasn’t there, though there were also problems with the story, fan reception, and overall quality. Almost unironically, (and definitely a departure from their more popular titles) Rockstar decided to take a different route in their narrative design by way of allowing players to be the sleuth instead of the psychotic killer....

It will probably come as no surprise to anyone that the Rockstar, Team Bondi crime thriller L.A. Noire has received a Mature rating from the Entertainment Software Ratings Board. However, if anyone is curious as to exactly why the game received the seventeen and older mark, the ESRB is happy to oblige with a complete summary for the rating. Rather than trudging through the whole thing, here are the highlights....

InnoGames releases information on the game’s graphics and style InnoGames recently released additional information on the art and graphics of its online strategy game Tribal Wars 2. The game significantly overhauled the visual look of its predecessor, Tribal Wars, yet aimed at finding a balance between classical and modern visuals. The gorgeous buildings in the city overview were all hand-drawn first and took about one month each to be finished, as lead graphic artist Tobias Dunz explains in a new video on the game game’s visuals....

Microsoft is planning to launch their Xbox Live service on IOS, Android, and Nintendo Switch. Don’t adjust your monitors; you read that right. Microsoft is looking to expand their reach and offer their online service across multiple platforms with a new software development kit, according to Windows Central. The official announcement is planned for sometime next month at GDC 2019 and even appeared on the conference’s schedule, but that has been taken down....

The following contains spoilers for the Legion season 3 finale. In the end, Legion died as it lived: by being totally trippy. Still, despite the presence of time travel, time gods, and timeline altering circumstances, this Legion season 3 finale (and series finale at that) was a bit more straightforward than most probably would have expected. All David Haller wanted to do was go back in time and fix things. Easier said than done, sure, but you’ll find that most time-centric wishes are easier to accomplish when you have a Time Lord (or Lady in this case) on your side....

Wolfenstein: Youngblood will be launching tomorrow on PC, and Bethesda is getting everyone ready with a new launcher trailer. Featuring the excellent voice of Brian Bloom as BJ Blazkowicz, this trailer sees the legendary Nazi hunter prepping his daughters for their upcoming battle against Hitler’s forces. Dropping words of wisdom and plenty of bravado, it’s hard not to get excited when BJ is pumped up. The terror twins team up in Wolfenstein: Youngblood The trailer description reads as follows:...

If you are interested in the idea of a Pinocchio adaptation, but it is also a Souls-like, you are fully going to love what Lies of P presents. The art style feels like someone tried to make their own spin on Bloodborne, and it works incredibly well. There are also plenty of hints of Pinocchio staples like the Blue Fairy, Gepetto, and Jiminy Cricket. The atmosphere is incredible and promises some tough action and storybook tales....

Media Molecule’s Dreams has long been a canvas for some truly awe-inspiring creations, but now this Jurassic Park-loving girl has perhaps discovered the best one yet (why yes, I am biased when it comes to dinosaurs). An upcoming fan-project known as Jurassic Park Operations from Krenautican sees action from the 1993 film reimaged in PlayStation’s game creation system. And, I won’t lie, it looks so good I had to do a double take to make sure I wasn’t watching something from Spielberg himself....

Square Enix unveiled the Life is Strange: True Colors opening scene yesterday to set the stage for the upcoming adventure. The teaser shows main character Alex Chen, who sees other people’s emotions in color. Although it is brief, the scene gives some context to the start of Alex’s journey. The teaser video features Alex from a third-person perspective as she speaks to her social worker, who is off camera. Alex has spent eight years in a foster care group home and will soon head out on her own for a new life....

Due to the scope of the cards that can be played in Pioneer, this new format has hitherto only been available on Magic: The Gathering Online and in paper. However, a recent announcement indicates that this will not be the case forever, as Pioneer is coming to Magic: The Gathering Arena....

Since the release of Mario Kart Tour, players have been asking for the addition of real-time multiplayer, and the beta is finally out for Gold Pass subscribers. This first testing phase looks to be brief and is live now until December 26 or 27 depending on a user’s location. As this is only a beta and not a formal launch of a new feature, players who attempt to access it will need to keep in mind that there may be issues that still need to be worked out....

Is it a crime to fall in love with Frankenstein? Martin Scorsese has, and hard. Pre-punk hard. The director is best known for movies with killer soundtracks, but he’s also brought such classic musical films as The Last Waltz–he even got Michael Jackson down a subway platform in the music video for “Bad.” Not to mention the work he did early in his career following Elvis Presley. Scorsese will next tilt his camera at the legendary David Johansen in a Showtime documentary, according to Rolling Stone....

One night last week I went to a book club with Blade. It was Blade’s idea, actually. Captain America and Captain Marvel were there, so we were pretty much knee deep in captains. Blade had arranged the whole thing to spend time with Captain Marvel, but then the other captain overheard and wanted in too, and Blade was too shy to say no. We read The Art of War. It was Blade’s pick....

The Mass Effect franchise features a universe so rich in history that it’s easy to get lost in files detailing stories that take place before the events of the games. Instead of just focusing on futuristic flying cars and levitating cities, Mass Effect forces players to engage with the past. Although the series has only covered Shepard’s fight against the Reapers and the Andromeda Initiative, there are still dozens of stories that future games could explore....

Rumors like these always come with the standard warning of taking them with varying degrees of salt. However, when something gets listed on a ratings board, it tends to have a little more weight than the usual scuttlebutt. The Game Rating and Administration Committee of Korea put up a rating for a currently unannounced title. This title is referred to as the “Mass Effect Legendary Edition”. There have been rumors of a Mass Effect trilogy HD remaster floating around for quite some time....
