The map above below measures about 18 km by 25 km. According to Wikipedia , Seattle covers an area of 142.5 square miles (369.2 square kilometers). Yep. That's 100 times bigger than the map in the game. Of course, that kind of size would have probably been really impractical for the game, and populating it with models and content would have taken a much longer time without using procedural tri
Faulkner, a veteran actor, has over 120 acting credits over the last 47 years. Appearing in films and television series’ ranging from _ Downton Abbey _ and _ Bridget Jones’s Diary _ to the 1997 direct-to-video _ A Kid in Aladdin’s Palace _ , Faulkner’s career has turned a corner with the credibility garnered for playing Lord Tarly. Randyll Tarly, in _ strategy game walkthrough|https://strategynewsbase.com/ of Thrones _ , is the Wildling-hating and House of Lannister-aligned father of Night’s Watch meister Samwell Tarly. In _ League of Legends _ Faulkner’s strong and distinguished voice fleshes out the demonically-powered ruler of Noxus, Jericho Swain . In the world of gaming voices, Faulkner has also worked on _ Dragon Age: Inquisition _ , _ The Turing Test _ , and voiced Severus Snape in _ Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
This incident has provided a good opportunity for Riot Games to adjust their policy regarding voice talent. While it might distract slightly from the game itself, making news of their voice actors only stands to increase the profile and popularity of _ League of Legends _ . A hire such as James Faulkner, who already has a significant foothold in fantasy entertainment as Tarly, would make for enticing news out of Riot. As mentioned in Gilliam’s piece, it is also widely rumored that Patrick Warburton provides the voice of
Boy, that was a wake-up call. I'm definitely not exaggerating by telling you that I nearly flipped the laptop onto the floor; Ghost of Tsushima was the perfect storm between an established studio (whose work I love), and an exciting new IP in a setting that I ad
Ninja have been popularized through decades of media and pop culture appearances, not just Japanese. Just think about Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, many Ninja-inspired superheroes and characters (all the way back to G.I. Joe ) , and products like LEGO Ninjago and much, much m
Japanese games don't normally sell millions of units, and this is indeed a fact, but assuming that it's simply because they're Japanese is a case of confusing correlation with causation. The reason behind the sales number is normally due to a combination of lack of marketing push and sub-AAA production val
This already is a largely debatable position. Not only are there many, many western games by publishers that would lick their lips at the idea of selling two million units, but Japanese games as a whole are certainly a relevant factor to selling conso
It will be five years after Pacific Rim when sequel Uprising finally arrives in cinemas, which in modern terms means it's essentially a franchise jump-start. After all, the first movie was only a moderate success, but Legendary have big hopes for the follow

Join Naughty Dog and the cast of The Last of Us Part II as they discuss the making of the cutscene teaser trailer that was revealed just a few short weeks ago at Paris Games Week.

For those attending the event, there will also be a signing session following the pa
_ League of Legends _ , the long-running and massively popular MOBA, is made by game company Riot Games. Riot traditionally does not credit voice actors for their work publicly, and instead only acknowledges the talent after the actors themselves reveal their work. The gaming world was clued in to Faulkner’s work by a reddit post by a Spideraxe30 showing a Twitter interaction between Faulkner and another user. Faulkner, apparently unaware of Riot’s practice of crediting voice talent, coyly acknowledged his work on the game and lamented the lack of acknowledgement on Riot’s p
One of the interesting aspects of an open-world game is the size of its map. If you have played inFamous: Second Son , which is Sucker Punch's latest full-fledged open world game (alongside its spin-off First Light ), the map may have felt large because it was a quite dense urban environment, but it really wasn't one of the biggest open worlds out there. As a matter of fact, it wasn't even cl
