A little LTTP here, but in case you missed the recent videos of legendary wrestling announcer Jim Ross shouting over classic game footage, here they are in one post.
WWE knowledge not really required, but if you know where the clips come from you’ll prolly get a little extra kick outta them.

Ever wonder how Monster Hunter monsters are created? I know I do every time a new awesome design pops up. Well, lucky for us, the folks at Kotaku UK sat down with series producer Ryozo Tsujimoto and talked about some of their general approach to creating the main stars of the game.
You can read the full article here , but I just wanted to share one of my favorite parts:
“Each monster has its own team of planners who determine how it’s going to move and how it’s going to attack and act, and you can see their personalities come through,” says Tsujimoto. “They’re all going to behave a little differently depending on the team that made them. That doesn’t just happen with visual design, but with gameplay design too.”
So how do you like that? “Each monster has its own team of planners”!!
You might also notice how the article contains pages from the Monster Hunter Illustration books; if you didn’t already know this, Udon Entertainment translated and published both of them, so if you like reading design insights, you definitely get both of them. Here are some links for ya:

Following up on last week’s Lost Planet 3 update for PC, we have one additional update for you LPers.
It has come to our attention that first-time purchasers of Lost Planet 3 are experiencing issues saving the CAMPAIGN data; MULTIPLAYER and settings data is unaffected.

In the meantime CAMPAIGN data can be correctly saved by following the steps illustrated below.
1. Open the file path \UserProfile\Documents\My Games\LostPlanetGame\LostPlanetGame (UserProfile is PC dependent)
2. Create a folder named “SaveData” without the quotes inside of the “LostPlanetGame” folder opened in step 1.

If you’re into collectible card games, you may have heard of Square Enix’s “Deadman’s Cross.” It recently surpassed 3 million downloads!
Today they’ve started a crossover campaign with Resident Evil which will run until Sunday, July 27th.
During the campaign, Raccoon City will be added as a limited-time hunt area in the card game, and players will obtain exclusive cards celebrating the RE series as well as normal “deadman” cards. Completing a collaboration quest will give players a Raccoon City Permit, allowing them access to the Raccoon City area.
