Dev says companies talked about canned Wii U games rather than new ones at DICE, more
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Podcast Stories, Wii U | 0 comments
Developers and publishers from around the world gathered at the D.I.C.E. Summit earlier this week. For Wii U, the main piece of news stemming from the event concerns the delay of Rayman Legends. But that’s not all – there’s another concerning Wii U update to discuss.
Sidhe co-founder Mario Wynands writes that other devs and publishers were discussing “the Wii U projects that have just been cancelled” rather than “the new Wii U projects they have started”:
At DICE, nobody has been talking about the new Wii U projects they have started, only the Wii U projects that have just been cancelled.
Platform is in serious trouble.

Darksiders lead designer pretty much confirms series’ end

Sadly, Darksiders is pretty much dead. The IP was one of the few assets that THQ was unable to successfully sell off.
Crytek did pick up a good majority of Vigil staffers – responsible for the Darksiders games – but left the series behind.
Rovio creative director Patrick Liu tweeted earlier this week: “No more Darksiders! š Whyyyyy Crytek…”. Responding to this, Darksiders’ lead designer Haydn Dalton wrote:
“Tis true Patā¦sometimes good things come to an end. That’s why you’ve gotta enjoy them while you can.”
And thus Dalton confirms what we all expected at this point: Darksiders is gone.

Earlier this week I learned of a game.
I was scouring the internet for any sign of the dead 3D exploration platforming genre to no avail, and I turned to reddit to have a discussion on the topic, asking for any games people knew of that fit the bill. The response was pretty sizeable.
I was recommended games from Cave Story to Shadow Complex, Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts to Prince of Persia; none of these games quite scratched the itch I had though. There was always something “off” about them, either gameplay-wise or artistically. Perhaps they were too linear, or didnāt feature enough backtracking; maybe the atmosphere was closer to a Saturday morning cartoon than a charming game of the N64 era– each one had some different “flaw”. The point is that after ten hours, I figured that maybe the genre was dead, and I was looking for something that wasn’t there. Apparently developers had simply abandoned the genre overnight, and now a former industry staple was nowhere to be found.
But why?
