MediEvil to return to the PlayStation 4? Leaked footage suggests so

MediEvil

When your first attempt to click with fans of old mascots turns out to be an oddity merely masquerading as his inspirations, not to mention a colossal failure, why not turn to a genuine classic mascot to get the job done?

Footage of Sir Daniel Fortesque strutting his stuff through a high-rez version of the classic MediEvil PlayStation games has been leaked through ArejugonesTV. Of course, Sony has no such game confirmed to be in development at this time, so either this is a genuine game that has been leaked or somebody’s idea of a funny joke from the mod scene.

MediEvil was a mid-life PlayStation hit developed by Sony’s SCE Cambridge Studio, now known as Guerilla Cambridge. Perhaps coincidentally, the studio’s credits list an Unannounced Project being worked on for the PlayStation 4 as we speak. Maybe we just found it?

The original game, which starred Sir Dan in a mindless hack ‘n slash action adventure, spawned a a sequel in 2000 which took him 500 years into the future, and a remake for the PSP in 2005 called MediEvil Resurrection. Both the original and PSP remake are available on the PlayStation Network. The sequel is not.

Would you like to play as Sir Dan in a new MediEvil game? The original games are very much a product of their time. Sony was desperate for a new mascot by 1998 seeing as how none of its previous attempts had really stuck like Sonic or Mario, and while the MediEvil games were fairly popular, they are hardly the stuff of legends like Metal Gear Solid and other huge titles that were released in 1998.

Still, retro revivals have proven to be fairly promising over the years, so why not? I’ll be more than happy to give this a shot.

Star Wars: Battlefront will not have classes

See full gallery on TechnoBuffalo When it comes time to pick your gear and weaponry in DICE’s upcoming relaunch of  Star Wars: Battlefront , you won’t be sifting through classes or class-specific stuff. That’s because the new  Battlefront has no class. I don’t mean that in a belch during dinner at a fancy restaurant kind of way, either. I mean you won’t be picking stuff like Engineer, Assault or Support before you roll onto the battlefield. In an interview with OXM , as summed up by the magazine’s sister site  Games Radar , Design Director Niklas Fegraeus indicated that classes are out. You’ll be able to pick and choose between unlocked weapons and gear freely and build to your own style. Furthermore, Fegraeus also indicated that  Battlefront will not feature the five-person squad feature that  Battlefield  offers. Instead, players will run as partners, a group of two system that lets players stick together, appear on one another’s HUDs and spawn besi...

Grandia II confirmed for an HD re-release on Steam

See full gallery on TechnoBuffalo GungHo Entertainment of America apparently has the results of its recent customer survey , and Grandia II  is the lucky winner scoring the first HD remaster out of it. The report comes to us through GameSpot where the company claims that the game was given “enthusiastic” support. Grandia II was originally released on the Dreamcast in 2000 to quite a large amount of fanfare, and it arguably remains the second most popular RPG on the console after Skies of Arcadia . I played the PlayStation 2 version in 2002 way back when, and I wasn’t too impressed. However, the Grandia franchise is also home to that classic style of JRPG storytelling that only gets better with age. Maybe I’ll have to dedicate some time to this cult classic whenever GungHo gets around to publishing it. President of GungHo America Jun Iwasaki chimed in on the response. “With the rise of digital downloads, it is especially important that classic g...

Exec behind “Next Big Thing” campaign has departed Samsung

Samsung Mobile CMO, Todd Pendleton, has reportedly departed the company, according to CNET . Pendleton is credited with creating Samsung’s famous “Next Big Thing” campaign, which took aim at the company’s rivals while highlighting the benefits of its own mobile lineup. The ads were smart, terse, and ultimately helped raise the awareness of Samsung’s brand as a major smartphone maker here in the U.S. It’s unclear why Pendleton left, but it’s being reported that Samsung executives became dissatisfied with the campaign’s recent success, even going so far as auditing the mobile division’s Dallas headquarters. It seems you can only use the Next Big Thing tagline so many times; the commercials have taken a decidedly different turn over the past few months, focusing on design, functionality and features rather than bashing Samsung competitors. The timing, I suppose, seems appropriate given that Samsung has just unveiled two new flagships, the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge. Samsung is clearly ...
