Game is Over

Miami attorney and hater of all things fun, Jack Thompson, was sanctioned earlier today by the Florida Supreme Court. Thompson is widely know for his hatred of the video game industry, blaming nearly any act of violence committed by persons under the age of 30 on video games, mainly Counter Strike and Grand Theft Auto. Thompson was warned by the court about submitting inappropriate filings to the court thus wasting their time. Today they finally acted and now if Old Jack wants to submit anything to the court it must be done through another attorney. Read more

One of GameisOver.net’s inside sources has informed us that Microsoft is hard at work on the X-box 360 successor. (Which doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out) But here is the interesting thing: The next console is rumored to contain a combination central and graphic processing unit. The big rumor though at this point is that they are working on a way to make next generation Xbox games playable on the current 360, forward compatibility (FC) so to speak. Based on this information, the way we here at GameisOver.net see it is very similar to what we saw with those Burger King games for the 360. You have a game that is playable on the older hardware but for enhanced graphics and other features it should be played on the newest system. Its a very interesting concept and is actually pretty similar to the philosophy taken by HD-DVD titles that were released on the combo format, owners without the newest hardware can still invest and view in the newest “software”. It’ll be interesting to see how this all pans out. Keep it locked here for more info.
