Cool thread OP, unfortunately I can't think of anything good.

This.
The last of Us had a shit ton of money poured into advertising it. You couldn't talk about video games without that game coming up.

Oh, I got some.

>There was a cancelled Halo Mega Bloks video game that had almost completed its development

>Valve originally planned on releasing a spinoff Half-Life 2 expansion as an Xbox 360 exclusive similar to Decay, but cancelled development early because they didn't think it'd be worth it

>The developers of FTL began work on a game in the same universe but from the Rebels' point of view, but it has been in development hell for a couple of years now

i'm gonna say true, true, false

>halo 2's arbiter was supposed to have an islamic name but it was changed.
>the whole team of masse effect 1 and 2 has worked on 3 and half on andromeda
>crysis 1 had a fun'y way to spot those who hacked the game by making them fire chickens

I would bet the halo mega blocks one is true, based entirely on the fact that I remember that there actually were halo mega blocks

yup, spot on

HOLY SHIT

Does anyone else remember when they were advertising The Last of Us as having revolutionary AI for other humans, where you could hold them up using empty guns as long as they didn't hear you attempt to fire enemy rounds and that ammo would be scarce for you and the enemies?

I was so surprised there was no backlash but everyone loved the "cinematic masterpiece" that no one seemed to care.

Honestly I stopped listening to journalism and promises in interviews about games a long time ago, so I don't really remember anything besides "revolutionary AI," but it feels like every other game promises that nowadays. It's a shame nobody actually does it, because AI is one of the few things we still have a lot of progress to make.

>I was so surprised there was no backlash
snoyggers are mindless drones
its literally consoom, consoom, consoom and attack anyone who says anything bad about Snoy

it’s false, true, true
Naughty Dog actually feared the game will bomb despite the long development time and the money Sony put in marketing the game

true
false
true

false
false
true

>true, false, true
'fraid the last one's false, although I wish the FTL guys would do something like that.

>>Mikami confirmed in 2005 that Ada Wong canonically doesn’t wear underwear

>HL2 spin-off only for 360
I bet it’s false, since Gabe considered home consoles a waste of everyone’s time, or at least there were 360 ports of games like L4D but a 360 exclusive HL game just sounds unbelievable

the fact about the arbiter is true tho, he was supposed to be called dervish.
the rest is good.
it's true false true

Well remember, Half Life Decay was a ps2 exclusive. you're right though, it was false.

> Nomura refused to work on KH3 until FF XV was finished, however Square got pissed at how long XV was taking that they kicked him off the project and forced him to work on KH3

>Zant was supposed to be the final boss of TP, Gannondorf was a last minute addition to the game

>Halo was originally going to be exclusively for Mac

all true, third one definitely

Hideki Kamiya voices Six Majin in Viewtiful Joe

the last having actually smart AI that I played was STALKER SoC fucker started shooting me from behind a tree and when I retreated behind the wall to reload he went around and attacked me from
behind

there was only 1 or 2 guys from the old games on andromeda, a'd they were like 10 people on 3, most of the team left after 2

true
false
ooh shit I recall it true, Microsoft made them turn the game into an Xbox exclusive when they were willing to publish the game

wow no wonder ME went downhill the way it did

>Hideo Kojima received an offer to direct a movie but turned it down because it conflicted with his schedule as he was too busy working on a game

>Stormbreaker based on Anthony Horowitz’s novel of the same name was adapted into a GameBoy, NDS and mobile game, the reason why it didn’t get a home console version is because the developer team they wanted to hire refused the job, later it turned out it was because they would have had to work with Alex Pettyfer and Stephen Fry to dub their respective characters but they didn’t want Fry to come because they were massive homophobes but they didn’t want media backlash
>the game’s composer Stuart Chatwood asked Prince of Persia Sands of Time’s lead character designer if he could draw some nude Farah artwork for him
>Uncharted 3 and 4’s development actually started at the same time so they could be released within the same gen, however a few months later they put 4 on hold and started working on The Last of Us instead, also Elena was meant to die in the beginning of Uncharted 3 and Nadine was originally planned to be Nate’s new love interest in 4, however they ditched it because they felt it was too dark for Uncharted 3 and Druckmann later reused the loss of the love interest element in Left Behind
>MS developers called the console prototype Xbox because DirectXbox was too long (the console was based on DirectX), before release they made a survey for possible console names but people were highly skeptical towards all of the names on the survey list, in second round they added new names with Xbox among them believing nobody will like it but nearly every people participating in the survey voted for the name Xbox

>the whole team of masse effect 1 and 2 has worked on 3 and half on andromeda

This is false, Andromeda was made by a different Bioware office which before then only really existed to work on the DLC/Multiplayer for the main trilogy. Andromeda was their first and last actual release. After 3 whatever was left of the original Mass Effect team started work on Anthem.

false, Kojimbo always wanted to direct movies instead of games

True
False but believable
False

Actually I think halo WAS supposed to be a mac exclusive

Fish AI was the last straw for me

It's not just enough for the AI to be advanced, you need levels where the AI can take advantage of that and do interesting things, and communicate that to the player

This is why people enjoy FEAR to this day

It's true.

It was going to be on mac but it wasn't exclusive

>Mikami confirmed in 2005 that Ada Wong canonically doesn’t wear underwear
True
>Naugty Dog didn’t have much faith in The Last of Us, believing it’ll be a flop
