Observer Shows A Glitched Reality For Its Cyberpunk Horror Story – Siliconera

Posted: March 21, 2017 at 12:01 pm

By Joel Couture . March 18, 2017 . 3:00pm

A new trailer shows off a glitching, distorted world for Observer, the next horror title from the developers of Layers of Fear.

In Observer, players act as a futuristic cop, one whose investigations involve probing into the minds of the mentally ill. To do so, players will hack the minds of suspects, drawing on what they see there to use as evidence in criminal cases. In doing this, though, players will live through horrific memories in dangerous places.

This new trailer gives a hint at what players will see, taking them to decrepit places, crumbling worlds, and glitching landscapes. It also hints at a presence that creeps nearby, promising potential danger that lurks inside these fragmented lands.

Observer still has no set release date, but through its trailer, looks to offer even more psychological horror and twisting worlds from the developer, only with a cyberpunk slant.

CD Projekt Red wants Cyberpunk 2077 to be a huge success – TweakTown

Posted: at 12:01 pm

Cyberpunk 2077 developer is expecting 'even better sales' than The Witcher 3, which was a gigantic success

CD Projekt Red has been one of the best AAA gaming studios in the world, and one of the most awarded and respected - especially with The Witcher 3. Now the developer is working on its next title, Cyberpunk 2077, and the anticipation of the game is reaching fever levels.

During an interview with Polish website Gazeta, CD Projekt Red co-founder Micha Kicisk said that the team didn't expect The Witcher 3 to be so successful - but added that there's still room to grow and learn, so that the team can catch up with even bigger developers. He said: "I think that none of us expected such an unbelievable success of the game and CD Projekt itself. We're talking about a game, that has pretty much won every single award and accolade that you can in this industry".

Kiciski added: "If we're to expect something more, it would be even better sales of the game. My brother Adam (CD Projekt's CEO) spoke about it at one of the investors conferences. The Witcher 3 was of course a gigantic commercial success, but in terms of sales there's still a lot of room for growth. CD Projekt's ambition is to catch up with the largest developers in the world in that area".

Cyberpunk 2077 will be the game that will see CDPR hitting the big time once again, with the team thinking that the cyberpunk universe is more appealing to gamers than the fantasy world of The Witcher franchise - with 3 games out now, this is a fresh style, look, and feel for the team. He continued: "I think it's absolutely realistic. "The Witcher" was a fantastic material for a game, but it also constraint us. For starters, we're working with a story set in a fantasy world. Secondary, we're promoting a brand, that was mainly known in Central-Eastern Europe, and not in the west".

He went on to say: "I'm confident, that Cyberpunk 2077 can be a much bigger commercial success than "The Witcher 3". Futuristic world of the Cyberpunk is much closer to what we know from our daily lives. It's also much more popular, massive as you can tell by its presence in the films, books, comics and games. You have to remember, that fantasy is a much more niche topic. I believe, that in case of Cyberpunk, CD Projekt can fight not only for prestigious awards and accolades, but also for a huge commercial success. It's hard to achieve both of those in our industry, but it's perfectly doable, as shown by Rockstar and, in the past, Blizzard".

Do we have a release window for Cyberpunk 2077? Not just yet, but Kiciski teased that CDPR is ramping up to announce a release date in the near future - with a "short" (6 month) "intensive marketing campaign" on Cyberpunk 2077. Kiciski said: "Ha ha ha... I know as much as any other person, so I just patiently wait. However, Adam has clearly stated during one of the conferences, that the period between the release date announcement and the launch itself may be very short. Creating a short - lets say 6 month - but intensive marketing campaign is a hard to achieve ideal. Only well respected companies that have appropriate financial resources can pull it off. It's sort of a communication blitzkrieg. You have to be well prepared, but you can win a lot".

We do know, however, that Cyberpunk 2077 will be released alongside another major triple-A RPG by 2021...but that isn't exactly much solace to hardcore fans right now.

‘The Matrix’ reboot: Remake of cyberpunk classic in the works – Jakarta Post

Posted: at 12:01 pm

The Matrix, as a cyberpunk classic, influenced the minds of a great number of movie fans. Word has it that its about to get a reboot.

Zak Penn is reportedly engaged in talks to write a Matrix reboot with Michael B. Jordan being considered for a role in the new movie, reports The Verge.

Penn has done script work for a number of superhero movies and has provided story assistance for established writers who worked on Avengers, Elektra, and X-Men: The Last Stand. Jordan, on the other hand, has yet to formally commit to the movie project.

This is not the first time that word has gone out about a new Matrix movie. Joel Silver, producer of the original The Matrix, had approached Warner Bros. with the idea of making a new film to add to the franchise. Unfortunately, Hollywood Reporter says that the studio had been worried about a number of issues. These included Silvers relationship with the Wachowskis and his reputation for budgetary excesses.

With regards to the Wachowskis, both writers and directors of the original Matrix Trilogy, they are currently not involved. However, as creators of the franchise, it is speculated that Warner Bros. would at least want to get their blessing before moving forward with the reboot.

Keanu Reeves, who played Neo, indicated his desire to come on board for another Matrix movie if the Wachowskis will be involved.

As of now, the project is still in its very early stages and could still get cancelled like the previously planned Matrix TV show. Even within Warner Bros., there are those who see the original movies as untouchable due to their box office success. Should the original Matrix team rest on the laurels of this classic, or risk everything with a reboot? It seems just like a choice between the blue pill or the red pill.

Marist senior works to create CF Day – Dunwoody Crier

Posted: at 11:59 am

Dunwoody resident and Marist senior Kehl Mackesey, 18, worked closely with state Sen. Fran Millar and his legislative staff and the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation to have May 1 declared CF Education and Awareness Day.

Kehl, her family and friends, Rev. Bill Rowland and Marist counselor Carrie Gosz were on the State Senate floor when the resolution was read on March 13. The resolution will spread awareness and educate others about the disease.

Georgia is home to more than 800 people living with cystic fibrosis (CF), including 18-year-old Kehl. She contacted the State Senate and the CF Foundations Georgia Chapter earlier this year with her vision of having a day dedicated to spreading awareness about the disease. The Georgia Chapter has events throughout the year to raise funds and awareness, connect families fighting CF and bring a voice to the disease.

Cystic Fibrosis is a life-threatening genetic disease that primarily affects the lungs and digestive system. An estimated 30,000 children and adults in the United States (70,000 worldwide) have CF. People living with CF have a defective gene that causes the body to produce unusually thick, sticky mucus that clogs the lungs and leads to life-threatening lung infections and obstructs the pancreas, making it difficult for the body to break down food and absorb nutrients.

The mission of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is to raise funds to continue its mission to cure cystic fibrosis (CF) and to provide all people with the disease the opportunity to lead full, productive lives by funding research and drug development, promoting individualized treatment, and ensuring access to high-quality, specialized care.
