why no pc version activision

[Spark Of Spirit]

At the very least I expect a Wii-U version at E3. GoldenEye sold by far the best on the Wii, so I'd hope they wouldn't miss it.

Now if Crytek UK can get around to that little Timesplitters announcement...

007 Legends was announced:

SANTA MONICA, Calif., April 18, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- To celebrate the James Bond franchise's 50th anniversary, Activision Publishing, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Activision Blizzard, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI), will launch gamers back through time to relive a selection of Bond's most iconic and intense undercover missions from the popular Bond film franchise with 007? Legends.

A first-of-its-kind Bond video game, 007 Legends features an original, overarching storyline tying together six classic Bond movies, concluding with this year's highly-anticipated 23rd installment ? SKYFALL ? to offer the most diverse Bond gaming experience yet! As with the feature films, 007 Legends equips players with state-of-the-art spy gadgets, an arsenal of weapons, including Bond's signature Walther PPK, and sleek vehicles as they jet off to exotic locations and utilize Bond's quick wits, class and style to take down notorious villains and their brutal henchmen, perform impressive stunts, and of course...mingle with gorgeous Bond women.

"To honor 50 years of the world's top secret agent, 007 Legends offers a collection of his most famed moments in the smartest and most treacherous Bond game yet," said David Oxford, Executive Vice President at Activision Publishing, Inc. "Creating a video game storyline that ties together six popular, yet very different, Bond movie narratives can be challenging, but together with EON Productions, our developer Eurocom, has pulled it off to create an homage that we think will be a unique and highly entertaining Bond video game."

In addition to 007 Legends' main story, the game will feature the return of fan-favorite single-player Mi6 Ops Missions, which debuted in GoldenEye 007: Reloaded and challenges players to complete extra missions ranging from all-out action to stealth and gadget-based gameplay and compete for the highest online leader board scores. For the first time ever, players will be able to participate as one of Bond's cohorts or villainous foes, reliving the missions through their eyes, as well as 007's. The robust James Bond multiplayer experience includes local four-player split-screen game modes and online competitive gameplay with new maps, weapons and characters derived from Bond's 50 year legacy. With more gadgets, deeper stealth and spy investigation gameplay, gamers will have every opportunity to truly feel like the world's favorite spy.

Planned to launch this fall, 007 Legends is being developed by Eurocom, under license from EON Productions Ltd. and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, Inc. (MGM) for the Xbox 360? video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and PlayStation?3 computer entertainment system. Stay tuned for more information on the game's official Web site and Facebook page.

I'm glad that Eurocom is now the go-to Bond developer after GoldenEye Wii. They're certainly a much better pick than the Bloodstone guys.

Confirm bots and the game has my money.

YES! Prey 2 isn't cancelled!

Development of Prey 2 has not been cancelled but the game will not be released in 2012 as planned. The delay is due to the fact that game development has not progressed satisfactorily this past year, and the game does not currently meet our quality standards. Prey 2 has shown great promise and we regret disappointing our fans. We have made a substantial investment in game development to deliver the experience fans want. We are determined only to release the AAA game that fans rightfully expect, and are unwilling to compromise our quality standards to meet a release schedule.

Wow, can't believe I've never seen this before. Looks pretty unpolished (it's an old build, of course), but damn, it has a lot of really nifty ideas. Good stuff!

Shouldn't this technically be New Super Mario Bros. 3? Fucking hyped either way.

Sequel to my favorite game of the generation

Can't wait for August.

I thought you hated New Super Mario Bros. DS?

It's the sequel to NSMBWii. The same team made both. 

I don't know why they're calling it 2, though.

Yeah, I'm surprised they didn't take this opportunity to call it New Super Mario Bros. 3D.

Anyway, Mario is a system seller for me. With this coming out and 3D Land, I'm going to need a 3DS.

[Spark Of Spirit]

I'm surprised it's coming out so fast.

Before both Paper Mario AND Luigi's Mansion 2. 

[Foggle]

How well does Luigi's Mansion hold up, anyway? I remember loving that game when it first came out, but I sold it 8 years ago and haven't played it since. Might pick it up again before the sequel comes out.

[Spark Of Spirit]

It's okay. Way too short, though. I'm hoping the sequel packs in more stuff.

[talonmalon333]

Luigi's Mansion is enjoyable. Not terrible like some people say, but not awesome like the hipsters like to say.

Supposedly, Miyamoto wasn't involved in the original NSMB.
