The site says that "Eckhart plays Hook, the Captain Hook character reimagined as a tormented former detective on the trail of a childlike kidnapper. Robb... will portray Wendy, the lone survivor who leaves an asylum to help in the hunt... Sean Bean has been cast as Smee, the chief detective and Hook's only ally on the force." Ben Hibon will direct from a script written by Ben Magid. Filming is scheduled to start in Eastern Europe this October. Most evidence of these images have been removed from a lot of websites at the request of Ubisoft, which begs the question, "Is this real?"
The images are of a sound-stage and recording studio where Splinter Cell 6's audio is being rendered. This may be 1 of 3 things.
#1- These images are a complete fake and someone is trying to stir up some rumors involving Rockstar and E32011. #2- These are "stolen" images from inside Rockstar that someone has posted to the internet. #3- Rockstar is actually releasing these images to start the excitement for the highly anticipated fifth installment of GTA for E32011.

GeoHotz publishes this knowledge and instructions on his website and YouTube Channel. January 11, 2011 Sony sues George Hotz for distributing Jailbreak software to the public and cites Mr. Hotz for promoting online piracy and allowing illegal copies of PS3 games to be played on Jailbroken PS3s. April 2, 2011 Hacker group Anonymous begins "Operation Sony," in response of Sony's lawsuit vs. GeoHotz. The "Denial of Service" error messages begin. PS3 users are now becoming aware.

Massive story, long "career mode", interesting plot points and twists, interactive and character defining gameplay mechanics and techniques, and not to forget the facial-mapping and acting. L.A. Noire is so big that it takes up 3 DVD disc for the X360 and 1 full Blu-ray for PS3. L.A. Noire will be 8sq.Miles of area for you to explore. From edge to edge it would take you 30minutes to traverse in a car. To put it in perspective here are a few game worlds you might be familiar with. Mafia II - 4sq.Miles GTAIV - 6sq.Miles The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind - 10sq.Miles The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion - 16sq.Miles Just Cause 2 - 385sq.Miles FUEL - 5560sq.Miles [UPDATE] Corporate spokesman Jeff Brown told IndustryGamers, "This story is a total fabrication – 100 per cent not true." According to a Develop Online article EA already has their hands on the basic hardware build of the next Xbox. (I refuse to call it the Xbox720.) EA is rumored to be working on the Alpha software that will "over-take" this generation of gaming. Develop reports that the hardware was shipped in a PC shell that hid the inner workings; “Quite often when new consoles come around they’re packaged into a PC shell, but actually what’s inside is an entirely new console,” a senior, trusted, well-placed source said. The Next Xbox has been rumored ever since 2006 when the 360 launched. Logos, prototypes, and rumors litter the interweb but only a select few shareholders know the details about Microsofts third console. What I Would Like to See in the Next Xbox Console:
There are rumors that Microsoft will announce the plans of a new console at E32011, but many sources are calling a bluff on this one. The next console from Microsoft is expected in 2012. Ubisoft has announced that Assassin's Creed Revelations will be released this November and wrap up Ezio Auditore de Firenze's storyline. This will not be an "Assassin's Creed 3," but will tie up all the loose ends between Ezio, Altair, and Desmond. What We Know:
Assassin's Creed Revelations will be fully announced later this month and is rumored to be present at E32011. This is the fourth game in the series and Ubisoft has promised to keep the story and gameplay unique in each chapter. Look for Assassin's Creed revelations this November. [GameInformer] |
