Well, another month and another game company gone. This one is a HUGE surprise! Disney, in its infinite wisdom, has Closed down LucasArts and cancelled Star Wars 1313 and First Assault! Not to sure about First Assault, but 1313 was a huge departure from the standard LucasArts Star Wars game. Taking place in the Underworld or the Star Wars Universe, 1313 was an all new game with a great graphics engine pushing it.
LucasArts has a long heritage of great games, from Rebel Assault, Grim Fandango, Dark Forces and more! They will be missed...
So now that's Stdio Liverpool (Psygnosis), THQ and now this....
Day 1 Left, Day 2 Right Just to be clear, Jessica Nigri was asked to leave and change, she was allowed back in... But on day 1 of PAX east, she went dressed as Lollipop Chainsaw's star, Juliet Starling, without issue. Day 2 she went dressed as the same character in one of the multiple alt costumes and asked to leave to change. She returned in the cheerleader uniform from day 1 she was asked to change again, cover up, or leave entirely! Did I mention she was at the WB Games booth and is the official character model for the game? So what's the point of this post? Most of the Grotto staff come from a place in the US where people can go grocery shopping wearing A LOT less than what Nigri had on! Now if she were dressed in one of the alternate costumes from Dead or Alive Extreme Beach Volleyball, then I can understand the issue. What do you guys think? Let us know in the comments below or on Google+ and after the break, see Nigri's Day 3 costume! Updated 4/9/2012: Added
Greeting Geeks, In case you haven't checked it out yet, Nickelodeon has released their new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series. As a general disclaimer: THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MICHAEL BAY'S TURTLES PROJECT . To put it simply, it's Teen Titans meets Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003). To put it more complexly...well...you'll have to hit the jump for that.
