  • VOTD: ‘Jurassic World’ Fan Trailers Offer Something Different Than The Official Version

    VOTD: ‘Jurassic World’ Fan Trailers Offer Something Different Than The Official Version

    short Jurassic World trailer

    Update From Editor Peter Sciretta: I have added another Jurassic World fan edit trailer, this one longer and more of a throwback to the original 1993 Spielberg film Jurassic Park. Watch it now after the jump.

    There’s a lot in the Jurassic World trailer, as we thoroughly dissected yesterday. But one editor had the idea that less is more, and while it’s not our place to say that the first look at the film showed too much there’s something persuasive in this short Jurassic World trailer. The one-minute edit of the footage is cut very much to the tune of the recent Godzilla trailers that worked so well. While it can’t fully emulate those edits thanks to the limitations of using footage already cut for a different trailer, there’s a vibe here that works really well.

    Adam Fox created another fan edit of the trailer, this one longer than the teaser cut we featured below:

    Original Fan Teaser Cut:

    There are some problems there, sure, especially where the audio dips out as Chris Pratt rides in with his gang of velociraptors. I don’t think that moment has quite the effect it needs. But this is a good concept that uses new footage to harken back to some of the memorable thrills of the original film.

    Here’s the original again, for reference.

    Steven Spielberg returns to executive produce the long-awaited next installment of his groundbreaking Jurassic Park series, Jurassic World. Colin Trevorrow directs the epic action-adventure from a screenplay he wrote with Derek Connolly. Frank Marshall and Patrick Crowley join the team as producers.

    Jurassic World will be released in 3D by Universal Pictures on June 12, 2015.

  • ‘Unfinished Business’ Trailers: Work Becomes War for Vince Vaughn

    ‘Unfinished Business’ Trailers: Work Becomes War for Vince Vaughn

    Unfinished Business trailer

    In Unfinished Business, formerly called Business Trip, Vince Vaughn is a guy who starts his own small upstart company after being forced out of a big outfit, only to find himself competing directly against his former colleagues for a big contract.  All he’s got on his side is an aging associate (Tom Wilkinson), a too-green newbie (Dave Franco) and a willingness to do anything to win the contract. Ken Scott (Starbuck) directs, and Sienna Miller, James Marsden, and Nick Frost also show up. Now you can see a red-band Unfinished Business trailer — one which certainly doesn’t skimp on vulgarity — and a work-safe green band version, too. 

    First up is the red-band trailer:

    And then the work-safe green-band version, which is more tame, but otherwise essentially the same, and even more funny in places:

    Unfinished Business opens on March 6, 2015. Trailers via Yahoo.

    A hard-working small business owner (Vince Vaughn) and his two associates (Tom Wilkinson, Dave Franco) travel to Europe to close the most important deal of their lives. But what began as a routine business trip goes off the rails in every imaginable – and unimaginable – way, including unplanned stops at a massive sex fetish event and a global economic summit.

  • God of War, Twisted Metal Director's Next Game Teased for PlayStation

    It looks like the next project from God of War and Twisted Metal director David Jaffe is coming to PlayStation and could be announced next week at the PlayStation Experience event in Las Vegas.

    The teaser video above from Sony shows a link to this website, bartletjones.com/haunted/, which is in reference to Jaffe’s new game studio, The Bartlet Jones Supernatural Detective Agency.

    The video hosted on the website shows a creepy and bizarre trailer titled “Haunted.” Jaffe appears in the video, though he’s not his normal self. Check out the video to see what I’m talking about.

    The Haunted trailer certainly suggests Jaffe’s game will be a horror title, but this isn’t the case, he says.

    Those expecting a horror game from us (much as we’d love to make one 1 day) will be disappointed. Plus I’d hate 2 go against the amazing PT!

    — davidscottjaffe (@davidscottjaffe) November 25, 2014

    You might also not want to read too far into the content of the Haunted video, Jaffe says.

    We just like to make fun videos! Hope y’all dig what we are working on tho!!!

    — davidscottjaffe (@davidscottjaffe) November 25, 2014

    According to the Bartlet Jones LinkedIn page, the studio’s first game is an action title based on a new IP.

    PlayStation Experience takes place December 6-7 in Las Vegas, which is one day after the inaugural Video Game Awards. GameSpot will be reporting live from Sin City for the duration of the weekend.

  • Xbox One Getting Limbo Because It's A "Must-Have," Xbox Exec Says

    Xbox One Getting Limbo Because It's A "Must-Have," Xbox Exec Says

    Playdead’s 2010 game Limbo is a “must-have,” according to Xbox boss Phil Spencer, who says that’s part of the reason why Microsoft is bringing it to Xbox One. He made the comment on Twitter.

    @ANTxDAxGAMER @majornelson To me LIMBO is “must have played” list for gamers. Have fun with it.

    — Phil Spencer (@XboxP3) November 25, 2014

    All of the 1 million+ people who bought an Xbox One during the console’s launch weekend in November 2013 will receive a free copy of Limbo for the new console. The game will also be available to purchase from the Xbox Games Store on Xbox One sometime in the future.

    Microsoft has not yet announced a specific release date or pricing details for Limbo on Xbox One.

    Playdead’s current project is 2015’s intriguing-looking title, Inside, which was announced during E3 2014 in June.

    Limbo was, to me, one of the most memorable last-generation games. It was dark and desolate, and a lot of fun. Did you play it? Let us know what you think in the comments below!

  • Games Like Destiny Are Changing Review Process, Bungie Says

    The traditional game review as you know it could soon become a thing of the past, according to Bungie COO Pete Parsons. He says in a new interview that online- and multiplayer-focused games like Destiny might require professional critics to rethink the review process.

    “It is true there are a lot of those people who were skeptical that are still playing it now,” he told GamesIndustry International. “I think it’s very difficult to–as we see games like Destiny coming out–it’s very difficult to sit down for nine hours, 11 hours, and write up a review of a game like Destiny, right?”

    “If I were a reviewer it seems like a nearly impossible challenge to do because there’s just no way you can experience… you barely experience sort of the campaign side of it and just PvP and no way you can get into all of the end-game activities,” he added. “And so it really asks a great question which is ‘how are games like Destiny going to be reviewed in the future?’”

    We’re going to find out, as Bungie is already working on Destiny 2, publisher Activision confirmed earlier this month during a financial presentation.

    Next up for Destiny, which has 9.5 million registered users, is an expansion called The Dark Below. It launches on December 9, introducing new multiplayer maps, weapons, and missions, as well as raising the level cap. Check out the video above for GameSpot’s thoughts about the upcoming DLC.

    The review process for games is indeed changing. Earlier this week, Ubisoft explained why it thinks you might not want to trust day-one reviews for The Crew, a socially inspired racing game.

  • Pokemon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire Sell 3 Million

    Recently released 3DS games Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire together sold more than 3 million copies across Japan, the US, and other territories during the three-day Nov. 21-23 period.

    The Pokemon Company confirmed the figure with Siliconera. 1.5 million copies were sold in Japan alone, with the other 1.5 million coming from the US and other markets.

    Importantly, Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire have not yet been released in Europe. Sales of the handheld role-playing games are likely to grow further when they are released there November 21.

    Pokemon is a powerful, enduring brand, but some questioned whether fans of the series would flock to Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, given they are remakes and not brand new games. Strong initial sales, however, suggest that there indeed is a market for such games.

    For more on Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, check out GameSpot’s review.

  • "Zero Complaints" Over Undisclosed YouTuber Game Promotions

    "Zero Complaints" Over Undisclosed YouTuber Game Promotions

    Despite widespread debate over clandestine paid game promotions on video websites such as Twitch and YouTube, the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) says it has yet to receive one official complaint.

    Matt Wilson, a spokesperson for the ASA, told GameSpot that the group was “aware of disquiet” among gaming circles regarding undisclosed paid YouTube promotions, but explains that it cannot take action unless it is formally contacted.

    “We’ve seen the news reports, and we’re aware of the disquiet, but we haven’t had a complaint about it yet,” Wilson said.

    “Obviously we have to manage our resources and look into adverts that people are complaining about. There are millions of adverts published each year and we need to be on-hands in dealing with the ones people are complaining about,” he added.

    “But if a complaint came in, we would absolutely look into it and see of there are grounds for further investigation. We encourage people to contact us if they are concerned about a specific games company.”

    The ASA is the UK’s independent regulator of advertising practices across print and television. Now, thanks to a new ruling, it has powers to act on promotional videos on sites such as YouTube and Twitch.

    On Wednesday, the ASA said it has set a new precedent by blocking videos from five YouTubers who advertised Oreos on behalf of the company. Despite no mention of Oreo paying for the content, the ASA said the content was “obviously identifiable” as marketing communications.

    Landmark rulings such as these gives the ASA more freedom to make decisions in similar scenarios, meaning it now has a stronger grip on video blogger content in the UK. It also shows that the regulator also has means to block content paid for by overseas companies.

    “Advertisers and video bloggers have a responsibility to be clear about when they are promoting content,” Wilson said.

    “Reputation Damage”

    The ASA ruled that some “Oreo Lick Challenge” video was “obviously identifiable” marketing

    The ASA’s removal of the Oreo marketing comes amid uneasiness within the games industry over undisclosed marketing videos by self-employed video bloggers.

    In January, it was discovered that Microsoft was paying a YouTube network, Machinima, for positive coverage of the Xbox One. Both parties went on to defend their deal, claiming it was a “typical partnership“. In the same month, it was discovered that Electronic Arts had paid some YouTubers for non-negative Battlefield 4 coverage.

    Popular personalities on YouTube, such as Boogie2988, have suggested many times that paid promotions are not uncommon.

    “If video bloggers are found to be hiding that they have a commercial relationship, then they risk reputational damage,” Wilson said.

    “We want video bloggers who are unsure about what’s the right and wrong approach to contact us for help and advice, which we’re offering for free.”

    The ASA did not suggest that the responsibility lies with platform holders such as Google (which owns YouTube) or Amazon (which owns Twitch). It also clarified that it only has jurisdiction over content that is available in the UK.

    Asked what the ASA could do if a YouTuber refused to co-operate, Wilson explained that it has many options.

    “There’s two parties involved in this, so the advertiser would be held to account as well. They could face significant damage to their brand and reputation,” he said.

    “We don’t want to go down this line usually, but there is a raft of different options we have for people who do not co-operate. We can, for example, place adverts around search results for people who do not take down offending content.”

    He concluded: “We also have the option to refer the case to a legal backstop, in the form of Trading Standards.”

  • New World of Warcraft Blood Elf Models Revealed

    New World of Warcraft Blood Elf Models Revealed

    Blizzard has revealed what the visual update on the Blood Elf race in the World of Warcraft MMO looks like so far. Posted on the Battle.net blog, the developer stated that it was happy with the direction of the aesthetic upgrade for the Blood Elf race, and shared images for both female and male blood elves.

    Senior artist Dusty Nolting said that the Blood Elf race was more about subtlety, and this was reflected in the female’s design, “Something we did often was move things around in small but deliberate increments, to make sure everything was just right. It’s the delicate details like her nose shape or fingertips that represent the most challenging parts of upgrading the female.”

    Speaking about the male Blood Elf design, senior artist Joe Keller said that while the model “already has a lot of character” thanks to his “easily recognizable pose and stylish hair,” the upgrade provided opportunity to define these traits, “while still maintaining his iconic look, bringing him to the level of the other new character models.”

    While Blizzard has not provided a specific timeframe for when these models will go live, the company has stated that it is “focusing on model and texture variations, as well as rigging and animating” and hopes to release the updated visual look soon.

    Most races in World of Warcraft received a visual upgrade in the lead-up to the launch of the Warlords of Draenor expansion. After the Blood Elves, the Goblin and Worgen races are still due for visual change.

    Warlords of Draenor launched earlier this month, hitting 10 million active subscribers within 24 hours of release. The game was beset with server issues at launch, to which Blizzard responded by allocating extra game time to active subscribers as compensation. World of Warcraft celebrates its ten year anniversary this year. Check out GameSpot’s look back on the game in our 10 Years of WoW feature.
