Yes, there’s totally a Battleship movie.
As in, a movie adaptation of the old pen ‘n’ paper guessing game of the same name.
STARRING LIAM NEESON AS E7, GEORGE CLOONEY AS F3, AND INTRODUCING SOME IRRITATING KID AS A6.
Okay, I made up that bit, although fact is maybe even more absurd than fiction – it’s somehow been turned into some kind of sci-fi alien invasion flick.
Anyway, Activision is cashing in the inevitable game of the movie of the game, now in development over at Double Helix, the same studio behind Silent Hill: Homecoming.
The game is a stand-alone story set in the same universe as the movie, so that’s the one where gigantic ships appear overhead for no obvious reason and presumably start blowing stuff up. Okay, I’m starting to see how this was reworked into a sci-fi alien invasion flick.
Also, I just looked the movie up on Wikipedia and Liam Neeson really is in it. I loled irlz.
Pity 99% of these gamers are all single player gamers. Like have a look at COD:MW2, Sold 98 000 copies locally (According to M-Web). How many of those almost 100 000 do you see online?
LAN gaming is dying out locally, where it is getting bigger/returning in 1st world countries. With most games moving to online ONLY and no LAN support, they can easily support 10-500 people at a LAN venue and everyone is internet enabled. Here you can’t even play 4 guys on a 3.5 Mbps ADSL Line.
Hopefully WACS will sort this issue.
IMHO;
Better Internet = More LANS / Gaming Houses / Events = more socialising = stronger community = more serious competitive players
