@ccgod: Bullock's character is Danny Ocean's sister. This is a sequel to the trilogy. At one point in the trailer you can see here sitting in a mortuary in front of a plaque that reads "Danny Ocean 1961-2018".
I'm surprised. This looks really good. I was half-expecting another Ghostbusters, but this feels like an Oceans film. The writing doesn't seem great, but it does seem fun and like there is some heart put into the movie. The cast looks like they'll work off of each other really well. I hope the heist has some of the same level of complexity as the ones from the Clooney trilogy. I'm looking forward to this.
@everson_rm: Star Ocean 1 has already been localized. They released the PSP remake, Star Ocean First Departure, in the west. I would love to see Bahamut Lagoon get an official localization and a remaster, that game was so good its a pity it never got an official release outside of Japan.
@Daelusca: No, that is not how it works at all. They're not talking platforms because they haven't even announced the game yet. All they've said is that they're working on a game and hiring for it.
@oneligas: I wouldn't be surprised if MS decided to publish and fund the game for Playground, but that all depends on what Playground wants to do. If Playground decided they wanted to make it for more than just MS platforms then there isn't much MS can do outside of offer more money.
@gamingdevil800: Depends. MS said they won't pay for exclusivity, but that doesn't prevent them from publishing games from independent studios, or just out right buying them. MS did say they want to bring in more studios and IP, so I wouldn't be surprised if they end up purchasing Playground.
@Jag-T1000: Assuming MS is funding it. Playground is an independent developer, they don't have to go to MS. I wouldn't be surprised if they ask/already asked MS to fund it, but it's not a requirement.
@kaminobenimizu: Yeah, but it is all their fault. They have made tons of bad choices when it comes to movies and the hack exposed a lot of their crap and how badly everything is run. Then they decided to hire Tom Rothman, a complete moron that saved and then nearly killed 20th Century Fox before they got rid of him. Rothman was the "genius" that turned X3 into what it was, micromanaged the heck out of Wolverine: Origins, prevented Deadpool from being made, and greenlit Trank's Fan4stick. Among other things during his tenure.
@sellingthings: I don't think mobile games are that huge in China at the moment. PC gaming, especially free2play stuff, is still the king over there. Japan is one of the world's biggest markets when it comes to mobile games.
