The Witcher: Rise of the White Wolf officially “On Hold”

by Sam Naylor on April 29, 2009 at 11:38 am

Remember when there was that rumour that the console version of The Witcher had been cancelled? It turns out it was partially true. WideScreen, the game’s developer, has confirmed that the game has been pushed back, thanks to CD Projekt (the owner of the IP) not having enough money.

Widescreen boss Olivier Masclef said that “I will try to find any solution for the fans. The Witcher on console is an extremely promising title that’s awaited by a lot of people. We have it running here, and I can tell you that if it hits the shelves one day it’s going to be great…” Oh, and don’t worry- no staff have been laid off.

Screens of Ryu and Ken’s Sensei in Street Fighter 4

by Sean Mitchuson on November 24, 2008 at 2:51 pm

Street Fighter 4, from what I understand, is not getting a legal arcade release in America (correct me if I’m wrong), but never fear!  The US is getting the console version on both PS3 and Xbox 360, and a character that you may or may not have known was coming was Ryu and Ken’s teacher, referred to as Gouken.

Confirmed: GTA IV PS3 Is Not 630p…It’s 640p

It’s fun to compare consoles, especially when the comparison involves one of the biggest games of this generation. Grand Theft Auto IV has been littered with websites giving their opinions on which version looks best. Surprisingly, most had no inkling of each version’s native resolution.

Eurogamer are the first to speculate that GTA IV on the PS3 runs at 630p. When in fact, it doesn’t… It runs at 640p. Read more…

PS3/360 Cry Engine 2 to Look Near High Settings on PC

It almost sounds too good to be true. Almost? It is too good to be true. Could Cry Engine 2 on consoles really look any where near as good as Crysis on the PC? Crytek’s Engine Business Manager, Harald Seeley, states that they expect the console versions to “look like they’re running at high settings, or nearly high settings, on a PC.” *Shock.* Read more…

Madden ‘09 is the first casualty of the cull, which is apparently because we love our consoles too much.

World of WarCraft Coming to Consoles!

Blizzard announced today that its overly-popular MMO, World of WarCraft, is headed to consoles in a spin-off entitled “The Molten Core”. We here at Ripten are excited about the possibilities of this concept, and I’m putting my money down that this is going to be the best game ever created. Find out why. Read more…

But for once it isn’t Michael Patcher sifting through the tea leaves. This time market researchers iSuppli have predicted that 2008 will be the turning point for PS3 – and if all goes to plan it will be the console Wii owners come running to. Read more…

Gaming Trends Part 2: The State of PC Gaming

by Roly Reyes on February 28, 2008 at 9:14 pm

state-of-pc-cliff-mark-gears.jpg

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been noticing quite a few themes that have been making their way through the industry. Throughout last week at GDC, many of these took center stage in a variety of forms. Today, we examine the state of PC Gaming.

Every year a multitude of publications come out proclaiming “PC gaming is dead! All units bail out!” It’s all getting to be a little ridiculous. Read more…
