The Witcher 2 Endings

CD Projekt has said The Witcher 2 will have quite a few more endings than the original game.

There’s 16 endings to be exact.

While multiple endings may not be a new idea, here are some other Witcher 2 numbers to expect:

There are three different openings.
It has 256 cut-scenes (150 minutes’ worth) where as the original had 130 (53 minutes’ worth).
The sequel has over 30 types of armor compared to only five in The Witcher.
An extra magic sign has been added.
There are only four load screens compared to 700 in the original.

The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings is slated for 2011 on PC. I wont be surprised if a console version gets released eventually.

Remade Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath coming to PS3

Oddworld developer Just Add Water is to release a revamped, HD version of Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath for PS3 next Easter.

This will be the franchise’s first outing on a PlayStation console since 1998’s Oddworld: Abe’s Exoddus.

Stranger’s Wrath was originally released in 2005 for the Xbox. The new version will be download-only.

Since word got out that we’ve been working with Oddworld Inhabitants there have been many rumours circulating about what we’re working on… Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath is the first project in what we believe will be a long and fruitful relationship. Having the chance to update this great title and release it on PS3 is just a brilliant opportunity, not least for us, but for the fans too

said JAW boss Stewart Gilray.

The game will ship in 720p and will come complete with normal mapping, self-shadowing, re-mastered dialogue, Move support and additional material.

PES 11 Demo Date

Konami has dated the PES 2011 demo for September 15 on PC and PS3, with PS+ subscribers getting it a week earlier on September 8. No Xbox 360 demo has been mentioned yet.

During the demo you can take on the computer or a friend as either Barcelona, Bayern, Chivas Guadalajara or Internacional.

Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 is released on October 8.

Hopefully these is the year PES kicks FIFA as the best football game. Its been a long time since they were the best and they still should be.

Acclaim Dies Again

When Acclaim Entertainment the developer and publisher of many hit titles in the 90s, such as the Turok series went bankrupt that was kind of sad but now Acclaim Games who bought the name and logo have also closed shop. They mostly focused on what I would call obscure online games, not mainstream anyway.

It’s never a happy time when something has to stop and close down because people lose jobs and especially in hard financial times but its kind of like nature you either improve/evolve or you will get extinct.
