Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa’s Convenience Mart Spree

Bad-Grandpa-Convenience-Mart-1.0

Paramount Pictures have released another instalment of Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa; a comedy that couldn’t come soon enough for Jackass fans. Based on the previous hilarious clips of the film, it comes to no surprise that Bad Grandpa (Jonny Knoxville) and his young sidekick, Billy are up to no good at the ‘Convenience Mart’.

The exclusive snippet, ‘Convenience Mart’, featured below, reveals that “there is no need for a basket” when it comes to their grocery shopping spree. However, no stealing can go unseen (even if you place the contents around your crotch), therefore the duo must face the wrath of a pissed off female worker.

Don’t miss out on Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa, coming to cinemas worldwide on November 14!

Football Manager 2013

People who have already pre-ordered Football manager 2014 from certain participating retailers are now eligible to begin playing the beta version of the game which, starting today, has officially opened. Had you pre-ordered it already you should be able to grab yourself the beta game through Steam but, don’t freak out yet, if you haven’t pre-ordered it everything is fine because you can pre-order your game now and still get your hands on the beta version.

Just as a general yet small warning: Remember that this IS a beta, a beta that isn’t entirely finished so you can expect a few small bugs and what not. A great deal of the game are likely to be tweaked and changed, for the better of course, throughout the beta process but it’s still fully-playable and is said to feature not only the main career mode but also the Football Manager Classic mode. What is great about this beta is that a career that has already been started within it can be transfered over to the full game upon release so you don’t have to restart your career you can just carry on from where you left off in the beta.

Football Manager 2014, released by Sega, is set for release on the 31st of October and the beta game will run from today all the way up until a week after the official game release which should be on the 4th of November, further details can be seen here.

The gang’s all here

Tiburico De la Carcova (Head of DeNA’s Vancouver and Santiago studios) said:

“Arena of War is an epic and imaginative experience and we could not be more honoured to be partnering with Wizards of the Coast and Hasbro to launch the first ever free-to-play mobile Dungeons & Dragons game. Our development team worked side-by-side with Wizards of the Coast to build a game both long-time fans of the leading RPG franchise and action-adventure game players new to the brand will enjoy playing.”

Players build an adventuring party to enlist on their quests in Arena of War. By inviting friends to join a questing party, players can vanquish enemies and take on tougher challenges and bosses together. Each quest provides heroes with a variety of challenges for which some players, depending on character class, will have an advantage. The arena itself is also dynamic, filled with deadly traps that can be used against a player’s enemy or result in their own demise.

Nathan Stewart (brand director for Dungeons & Dragons, Wizards of the Coast) said:

“Wizards is committed to working with the best partners to bring great digital D&D experiences to our fans, Arena of War creates a great mobile experience in the Forgotten Realms and pits players against our legendary monsters to fight for the Realms in the current Sundering storyline.”

Possible Dragon Quest/Final Fantasy/Tales Crossover Discussion

Final-Fantasy-Dissidia-01

Video game crossovers happen to be one of my favourite things in life, crossovers in general actually and it’s the icing on the cake to see big franchises come together to create something special. Games like Final Fantasy’s Dissidia and more recent titles like Project X Zone have proven to us that JRPGs are just as good at making or being in a crossover title than any other genre, which brings me to my next point: Apparently three of the JRPG world’s “big wigs” have, somewhat, talked out crossing over the Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest and Tales franchises into one huge crossover game to end all crossover games.

Hideo Baba: “If you can do it, then by all means!”

Yosuke Saito: “Shall we? We can start right away.”

Hideo Baba: “How about Toriyama’s first Tales game?

Shinji Hashimoto: “If Toriyama is okay with it, then we’re okay with it. As long as we stay true to the world view, I think Horii would be okay with it, too. How about Kosuke Fujishima draws for Final Fantasy, and Tetsuya Nomura does Dragon Quest?

Hideo Baba: “I’m pretty sure Fujishima would do it.”

Dragon-Quest-01

Yes this is true, Hideo Baba (Tales Producer), Yosuke Saito (Dragon Quest Producer) and Shinji Hashimoto (Final Fantasy Producer) have all spoken about the possibility of this though becoming reality and while it doesn’t seem like the conversation was TOO long and while they didn’t get into TOO much detail I’d still like to believe that, really, nothing is stopping them from making this happen. I, for one, pray that this happens because even though I’m not a big fan of these games I know a lot of people out there would love to get their hands on something of this majesty. Here’s to you, JRPG fans!
