About that Saints Row Twitter tease
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
On Tuesday, a message was posted on the official Saints Row Twitter account, which hinted that some sort of news about the series would soon be revealed. Unfortunately, as it turns out, it was just a giveaway. Today’s the two year anniversary of Saints Row 2, so THQ is celebrating the event by offering a fans a chance to win memorabilia relating to the game. This is a bit of a disappointment since I thought it was very possible that we’d hear something about Saints Row: Drive By, but hopefully THQ will have something to share in the near future.

n-Space facing internal issues
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 1 Comment
In August, it was reported that 25 employees from n-Space were laid off as a result of “momentary reduced demand.” It seemed like the company would be able to rebound in due time, but a rumor recently popped up claiming that the studio would soon be closing its doors. n-Space has since responded to the speculation, and while they admitted they are facing some issues, a statement posted on Facebook says that they are “down, but definitely not out.” We technically still don’t know what’s happening with n-Space, but let’s hope this isn’t the beginning of the company’s existence.

Update: In case there was any doubt, we’ve added the flier to this post. As has become an annual event, Toys R Us will be holing a “buy 2 get 1 free” sale on video game titles starting this weekend. Gamers will have until October 16 to take advantage of the deal. We’ve posted a few details from last year’s sale below, which will most likely apply this year as well. – This deal includes all accessories – Because they are considered to be gift cards, new point cards are not included in the sale (unless they come in some sort of bundle packs) – Unfortunately, the deal is only for residents of the United States – Check your local store regarding preorders – There may be a chance to preorder certain games at the register – You can take advantage of the deal numerous times (meaning you can have another order of three games) – If the game has been opened, you can only return the original purchase for the same title – Bundles should be included in the deal Source

We told you about this about two weeks ago, but Ubisoft 100% confirmed today that the show is happening.
SAN FRANCISCO – October 4, 2010 – Today Ubisoft and Aardman announced a partnership to create together a pilot and several shorts based on Ubisoft’s popular video game characters, the Rabbids.
Created by Ubisoft, one of the world’s leading video game creators in 2006, the Rabbids have transcended video games, inspiring a series of viral videos on the Internet, plush toys and even award-winning ads for world-renowned brands like Renault and Coca-Cola. For Aardman, ground-breaking creators of television and film properties such as Shaun the Sheep and Wallace and Gromit, the project represents a rare foray into applying their creative talents to a licensed property. The animated pilot will be produced jointly by Ubisoft and Aardman.
