New footage of Starcraft: Ghost, Blizzard’s cancelled GameCube game
Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in GameCube, Videos | 0 comments
During the GameCube era, Blizzard was developing StarCraft: Ghost. The stealth-action game would have hit Nintendo’s older console along with other competing platforms. It sadly wasn’t meant to be, as the entire project was scrapped – though it wouldn’t be officially confirmed as cancelled until 2014.
All of these years later, we have a brand new look at Starcraft: Ghost. An old Xbox build has apparently leaked online from a dev kit and has started to spread. A couple of videos can be found below, but it’s expected that we’ll be hearing more about the project going forward now that a much wider group of people have access.

Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
The Sonic the Hedgehog film is off to a strong start at the box office – so much so that it has overthrown Detective Pikachu as the best opening weekend for a video game movie. Detective Pikachu earned $54.3 million in 2019 over three days. Meanwhile, Sonic saw a three-day domestic opening of $57 million, which marks a new record for a video game adaptation.
Sonic took home another $43 million overseas for a global total of $100 million through Sunday. It’s also on track for $111 million through Monday. The movie earned $6.7 million in Mexico and another $6.2 million in the U.K.
The good news doesn’t stop there. Sonic is projected to earn $68 million over four days, which would be among the best showings ever for the long Presidents Day weekend.
