Kevin Conroy Would 'Aboslutely' Do a Justice League Video Game
During an interview with Batman voice actor Kevin Conroy, he expressed interest doing a Justice League game with developer Rocksteady. While Rocksteady has said they won't be doing anymore Batman games, fans have voiced their desire for the franchise to continue in a Justice League game. We asked Conroy if he was interested in doing a Justice League game with Rocksteady and he responded enthusiastically.
"Oh yeah! Absolutely," he said. "I would love to do that. It's really hard to record games and very hard to create them, but the result is so rewarding that it makes it worthwhile at the end."
Despite Batman: Arkham Knight's story ending in explosive fashion, Conroy has hopes that the game series will continue.

SEGA Financials Report Dramatic Decrease in Sales
SEGA's most recent financial earnings report was not a wholly positive one.
Reporting a decrease of 42 percent in net sales, the publisher reports sales earnings of ¥52.9 billion ($426 million), operating losses of ¥9.5 billion ($76 million), and net losses of ¥7.9 billion ($63.8 million).
SEGA representatives largely attribute the decrease in sales figures to global economies, with additional issues arising from the reported decrease in demand for game software, amusement centers, and amusement machines in Japan.
"The economy still remained in the condition requiring further time for full recovery due to uncertainty towards a downswing in overseas economies arising from factors such as the slowdown of growth in the economies of emerging countries and European debt crisis," SEGA said.

Capcom Exploring Resident Evil 2 Remake
Capcom is looking into remaking Resident Evil 2.
Producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi revealed on the official Resident Evil Facebook page that he was presenting his ideas for a Resident Evil 2 project to the company. "Right after the
HD Remaster project was finished, I actually started putting together my ideas for this 'RE2 Project,'" he said. "So, I just brushed it up and went to see my boss to present the basic concept of the project already."
Hirabayashi has worked on the Resident Evil series for years, contributing to the GameCube remake, Resident Evil 5 and Resident Evil 6. He expressed his excitement earlier this week about a Resident Evil 2 remake after Capcom R&D Division 1 asked fans if they would be interested by such a project. The response was quite positive.

Indie Game Prices are Too High, Says Indie Dev
Zeboyd Games' Robert Boyd has some strong opinions about the current state of indie game prices.
"I've seen a disturbing trend of more and more indie games launching at higher prices recently," he wrote candidly on a NeoGAF post. "Whereas $10-$15 was the norm for non-mobile indie games not that long ago, it feels like more and more $20 is becoming the standard."
According to Boyd, having a reduced price tag often means games can be more lucrative and successful for their creators.
"Lower prices often benefit both players and the developer. Lower prices mean more people play your game. Lower prices often result in more positive reviews," he said.

A Brief History of Metal Gear Solid
This is an extract from A Brief History of Videogames by Richard Stanton, available now. (It's rather good.)
Metal Gear Solid is one of video gaming’s longest-running, most critically acclaimed and commercially successful series. Hailed by fans as the greatest games ever, scorned by detractors for narrative indulgences, and leaving many in the middle baffled either way, Metal Gear Solid is also notable for its indelible link to creator/director Hideo Kojima. The auteur theory is always dodgy ground with modern big-budget video games, which are made by teams of hundreds, but in this case the stamp of one man’s personality is all-pervasive and impossible to ignore.

Diablo 3 Pays Tribute to Blizzard Employee Who Died of Cancer
Blizzard has revealed a key feature of Diablo III's upcoming patch 2.3.0 was created to honour a former employee who passed away from cancer last year.
The patch is set to introduce something called Kanai's Cube, the precursor the Horadric Cube introduced in Diablo II and used to upgrade items. In Diablo III it will offer you a huge range of options when it comes to item customisation and holds the potential to extract a Legendary power from an item. All in all, it sounds pretty cool.

China Officially Lifting 15-Year Ban on Consoles
China's State Council is officially lifting its 15-year old ban on the sale of game consoles, giving Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo access to the world's third largest video game market in terms of revenue.
According to a statement from the Ministry of Culture, via The Wall Street Journal, the lift will allow foreign and domestic companies to manufacture and sell consoles anywhere in the country.
China's State Council previously relaxed the ban on the sale and production of foreign games consoles in early 2014. The easement only enabled foreign companies to manufacture and distribute consoles within Shanghai's free trade zone.

“We are highly respectful of the way that our partners choose to run their business and manage our partnerships accordingly. We can confirm that Hulk Hogan will not appear in WWE 2K16.”
After Hogan’s termination from the WWE, the organization removed his profile from its websites and Hogan’s merchandise from the company’s online store.

Which Fallout Game Is the Best?
As we prepare for the arrival of Fallout 4, we’re looking back at the seven games that’ve had the Fallout name attached and ranking them, from weakest to strongest. This 18-year-old franchise history includes the three numbered games and Fallout: New Vegas, plus the tactical RPG Fallout Tactics, the action RPG Brotherhood of Steel, and the mobile vault management sim Fallout Shelter.
Note that this list isn’t based on IGN’s review scores. Our biggest Fallout fans put their heads together and ranked the games based on current stature and overall quality.
Without further ado, we begin with the worst Fallout game. (Don't worry - it gets better!)

"This inspection doesn’t cover the entire product line that Hakke, Omolon, and Suros have to offer," David "DeeJ" Dague writes, "We’re holding back a number of armament categories for you to discover for yourself as the Taken War escalates.

Is Super Smash Bros. Causing Problems at Evo?
Allow me to clarify something up front: this is NOT about whether Smash is a fighting game, because it is. The question of what Smash is, taxonomically, is a pointless one that people only really pose as a framework within which they can deride Smash players without sounding like they’re deriding Smash players. It’s nonsense, and you’ll find none of that here.
What this IS about, is community and fandom – two things central to Evo, and to all enthusiast conventions/events. Everyone knows what those things mean, but they’re complex issues to discuss, especially in the world of competitive gaming where so many people are working hard to earn fans, money, and validation for whatever game happens to light their fire. It’s emotional stuff, and rightfully so.

ESL to Begin Drug Testing its Players
The Electronic Sports League has announced that it will soon begin drug testing its competitors.
The first randomized performance enhancing drugs skin tests will be held at the ESL One Cologne event in August, and more tests are planned to be performed at every event in the IEM, ESL One, and ESL ESEA Pro League competitions.
Last week, professional Counter Strike: Global Offensive player Cory "Semphis" Friesen admitted that he and other members of the Cloud9 team had used Adderall during an ESL tournament.
Adderall is a drug usually used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. In this case, it was allegedly used to increase focus and reaction time during the $250,000 tournament. According to Motherboard, Semphis will not be punished, as the league "can't punish someone if we are not 100 percent sure he is guilty."

Fallout 3's Broken Steel Train Is Actually Just a Giant NPC Hat
Players poking around in Fallout 3's game files have noticed an entertaining detail: the rideable train in Fallout 3's third add-on Broken Steel is actually a hat worn by a fast-running NPC.
A screenshot reveals that the train was animated by an NPC with an entire train perched on her head. Fallout 3's Gamebryo engine wasn't really designed with vehicles in mind (in The Wasteland, most vehicles are simply rusted, abandoned, not-at-all-roadworthy wrecks, after all) - so when it came to the presidential metro train in the Broken Steel DLC, Bethesda Game Studios came up with a workaround: an NPC with a full-sized train hat. In-game, the player sees only a train car on tracks - but the whole thing is powered by a single NPC beneath the surface.

Injustice: Year Four #6 Review
In some ways, Year Four has been a much-needed return to basics for DC's Injustice: Gods Among Us prequel. However, the series has struggled with pacing problems over the past couple months, and that problem rears its head again in issue #6. Only one of the two chapters collected in this issue manage to satisfy.
Issue #5 ended with a promising cliffhanger, as Hercules and various other Greek gods and demigods arrived to challenge Superman's forces. The first chapter in this issue proves a major disappointment because it goes out of its way to diminish that sense of excitement. The action stalls just as it was heating up. Even as the script makes every sign of forestalling the big Superman/Hercules showdown, it randomly cuts away to spotlight characters like Raven and Lex Luthor. In short, there's little sense of focus and even less momentum in this chapter.

According to Square Enix boss Yosuke Matsuda, the third time's the charm for new IP.
"Cultivating a new IP is very important. This is my own personal view, but I believe that it is very difficult to immediately build up a big IP," Matsuda told Famitsu (via Kotaku). "Looking retrospectively at the gaming industry, many games take off or get their big break at their third title. There are cases where the opposite is true of course.
But regardless, you need at least three games before you can tell whether an IP is going to be really successful or not.

Evil beware -- this limited edition Link figure stands at 20 inches tall! This is Link as he appears in Skyward Sword, which used light cel shading techniques to subtly stylize adult Link.

Mortal Kombat X May Get More Character DLC Packs
Mortal Kombat X may soon be getting a fresh raft of DLC characters, if a comment made on a livestream is anything to go by.
Yesterday, developer NetherRealm Studios showed off the final fighter set to join the roster as part of the first Kombat Pack - Tremor. At the end of the livestream, however, was a reference to this being the end of "Kombat Pack 1".
While not conclusive, this certainly suggests the existence of at least one more Kombat Pack. This one has contained four fighters, so it's safe to assume we'll be seeing more than one character included in the next one too.
We've reached out to Warner Bros. to see if there's an official announcement incoming and will update this story when we hear back.

The Best Console for Streaming Video
With services like PlayStation Vue and the Xbox One's Sling offering streamed cable channels with DVR-like capabilities, today's consoles are better equipped than ever to deliver video with the same level of depth and breadth as they do for gaming experiences. Not every system is created equal, however. Between the user interface (UI), hardware, and exclusive apps, it may be tough to determine which is best for your streaming needs.
To that end, we've compared and contrasted the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, and Xbox 360 (due to the relative lack of apps and DVD compatibility, the Wii U was not considered), noting which is best in eight vital categories. And of course, we named an overall winner, too—a proper showdown wouldn't be complete without one.

Microsoft May Face Disk-Scratching Class-Action
Microsoft may be on the verge of a class-action lawsuit following a recurring claim that an Xbox 360 defect gouges disks.
As Arstechnica reports, a decision was made by the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals on Monday that says Microsoft should either face litigation regarding the claims or face a Supreme Court showdown.
Throughout the lifespan of the Xbox 360, Microsoft maintained that scratched disks were the result of consumer misuse, most of which were caused by customers moving the console with a disk in the tray. That said, if it was a Microsoft-published game, customers did have the option of getting the disk replaced for free.
