It’s Poker Night at the Inventory for Max, Tycho, Strong Bad, and the Heavy
That mysterious Telltale mashup game teased last week? Telltale laid its cards on the table, revealing … Poker Night at the Inventory , the second “pilot” game from the adventure publisher, which brings Team Fortress 2 ‘s Heavy, Penny Arcade’s Tycho, Homestar Runner’s Strong Bad, and Sam & Max ‘s Max together for a little good-natured gambling. Now, we know what you’re thinking. How can Strong Bad play cards with boxing gloves on? Poker Night at The Inventory features fully voiced characters utilizing Telltale’s dynamic dialog system,” according to the announcement. “All the characters will talk trash, give unique tells, and react to the game dynamically as it is being played, providing a unique experience with each round played.” It also features Steamworks integration, a first for the publisher. Oh, and pre-orders from Telltale for the fall release ($4.95!) come with coupons for 25% off your order. If we knew the first thing about poker, we’d totally relate that to a hand of cards you’d be confident about holding.

Bastion is Supergiant Games’ first title, playable at PAX
When Supergiant Games opened its doors during GDC earlier this year, it revealed it was working on a digital title to be released in 2011. This week, Giant Bomb unveiled that title — it’s called Bastion and should be available for public consumption by next summer. Supergiant explains Bastion as an “action role-playing game set in a lush imaginative world, in which players must create and fight for civilization’s last refuge as a mysterious narrator marks their every move.” The “mysterious,” somewhat lyrical narrator makes his first appearance in the game’s trailer — which we’ve dropped after the break. Considering Supergiant’s pedigree (ex-EALA Command & Conquer devs) and how beautifully detailed this initial media is, we have high hopes for Bastion . The game will be playable at PAX Prime this weekend as part of the “PAX 10.” Gallery: Bastion Continue reading Bastion is Supergiant Games’ first title, playable at PAX Bastion is Supergiant Games’ first title, playable at PAX originally appeared on Joystiq on Thu, 02 Sep 2010 22:00:00 EST.

Pachter predicts $100 ‘Platinum’ Xbox Live membership
The bump in cost for a Gold membership on Xbox Live is just the tip of the iceberg, according to game industry seer Michael Pachter . Predicting a $100 plan as the next evolutionary step in subscription options soon to be available to Xbox Live consumers, he told IndustryGamers reports that while the initial extra $10 “translates to around $100 to 150 million per year in additional revenue for Microsoft,” the company will “reinvest at least this much in developing other new applications, and will roll out a premium service with $100 to 200 million worth of enhancements. If they can get 2 million users to switch from the $60 plan to the $100 plan, they’ll make an extra $80 million a year, and can keep investing to try to grow that business.” It makes sense: Xbox Live is easily one of the biggest draws of the console and consumers have already shown they’re willing to pay a premium for it. But even if Microsoft were to offer a “Platinum” service, what could justify what is comparably such a heftier price tag? “For all I know, the Platinum plan might include virtual goods credits for various Microsoft games,” Pachter posits. “If members could get specialized Halo armor or weapons worth the extra $40, they might be more willing to sign up, and it doesn’t really cost Microsoft anything to offer things like that.” You know what? We may know a few people willing to pay for something like that. [Thanks, Mark] Pachter predicts $100 ‘Platinum’ Xbox Live membership originally appeared on Joystiq on Thu, 02 Sep 2010 21:30:00 EST.
