| ?Bucharest with help from Ubisoft Montreal.the Runescape game has been available since May on PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One and Ubisoft has said that Watch Dogs will likely be the last mature game they release on Wii U due to poor sales of titles such as ZombiU and Assassin's Creed on the platform. Ubisoft claims the delay of the Wii U version was made to ensure the Runescape game made full use of the Wii U's capabilities.For a while there it seemed the Runescape game may have been cancelled altogether but now those who chose Nintendo's hardware will only need to wait a little longer to get their hands on Aiden Pierce's story and see it for themselves.You can check out our 8/10 review of the PS4 version of Watch Dogs here.Destiny Made $500 Million in One Day. Destiny went on sale yesterday morning at midnight in over 11,000 stores worldwide. This morning, Activision has come out to proudly announce that in just 24 hours, the new shooter from famed Halo makers Bungie has earned $500 million in revenue. Activision says this makes it the biggest new IP launch in history, but without official unit sales numbers, we don't know how it exactly stacks up to the other alleged title holder, Watch Dog s. Still, it would be a natural result of being the most pre-ordered game in history.If that $500 million figure sounds familiar, that's because earlier this year it was reported that the combined costs of developing and marketing Destiny allegedly came to about $500 million, although that number was later refuted. But if true, that means Destiny has just made back all the money sunk into it in a single day. By the end of the week, Activision should be making a cool profit.Though this may be the biggest new IP launch in history, Destiny still falls mightily short when you include all game releases. Rembember how Grand Cheap RS Gold Theft Auto V made $800 million in a single day while Call of Duty: Ghosts made a whopping $1 billion? Coincidentally, Call of Duty is also an Activision project -- the studio can lay claim to two world records now!Destiny is currently available on PS4, PS3, Xbox One, and Xbx 360. If you purchased a digital copy of either last-gen version, you'll be able to upgrade to the current-gen versions for free until January 15, 2015.Super Smash Bros. 4: Pikmin 3's Alph Is Sort of a New Character. Director Masahiro Sakurai revealed yet another new character for the upcoming Smash -- but not really. That right there is Alph, one of the three protagonists in Pikmin 3. He's not a proper new character, though, since he didn't get a reveal trailer or his own slot on the Smash page roster.As Sakurai explained, Alph is just a costume variation for Olimar in much the same way that Villager has multiple male and female forms. |
Though this may be the biggest
