But they renewed the trademark! We’ve been hearing about Capcom’sDeep Downfor a while now. How long is a “while” — well, try over three years. Each time they’re asked about it the publisher seems to still acknowledge it, even if we secretly just think it’s a code name for anotherDragon’s Dogmagame. But that’s their story and their sticking to it, which includes delays, and trademark extensions. Just last week actually Capcom extended the trademark for the fifth time, which,as Siliconera points out, is the maximum allotment....

Great character Cassandra Lee Morris played Lin inXenoblade Chronicles X, and she had the chance to post a video log of sorts that explained how she got the role, and speaks a bit about the controversy surrounding the changes to her outfits in the western version. It’s neat learning a bit more about the voice behind the character, and I really like Lin in particular. Speaking ofXenoblade Chronicles X, I’m still playing and enjoying it quite a bit — the world is deceptively massive....

An on-going Pokemon map of San Francisco Forget the open-worldPokémonconsole RPG with wild pocket monsters represented on-screen instead of in random encounters. Nintendo just went and leap frogged all of us by partnering with a mobile company to bring Pokémoninto real life. The pitch perfect announcement trailer belies our lack of knowledge with respect to howPokémon Gowill actually look and function as a real-life application, but it does capture the exploratory, simple-times wonder of walking around a world with fantastical potential pets that you don’t get arrested for keeping and they don’t keep scratching at the fucking carpet....

They look so weird! Okay, maybe I’m being too critical here. I can’t help it though, considering I grew up with theTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I wasthatkid. That kid who had all the action figures including thedumb non-TMNTfigures, all the clothes, and obsessively watched the show. With all that said, Activision and Red Fly’s take on theTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtleslooks so ugly. They don’t even match the look of the new Nickelodeon Turtles, which this game is supposed to be based around....

Could do better than that I think thatAlien: Isolationcould be great. Pre-order DLC is bad. Especially when it’s actually cool sounding content, like a few missions starring the originalAliencast in the upcomingAlien: Isolation. After a paragraph and a half of empty words,Creative Assembly explainedit plans, “to release bothCrew ExpendableandLast Survivorat a later date and we’ll have more details for you guys on that shortly.” Better, but still bad. Especially because it sounds like it will release as paid DLC....
