The second installment in the well-known “Jak and Daxter” series, titled “Jak 2“, was unveiled for the PlayStation 2 in 2003 by Naughty Dog. Unlike its predecessor, this edition adopted a more somber mood and introduced a semi-open world that players can traverse using different vehicles, causing some to liken it to “Grand Theft Auto“.

Over time, “Jak 2” has gained cult classic status, and now an independent developer is incorporating some of its concepts into a fresh project.
Back in 2003, I was thrilled when Skype made its debut. Fast forward to 2011, and Microsoft scooped it up for an impressive $8.5 billion. However, as time went on, Skype seemed to drift away from Microsoft’s core strategy, with the introduction of Microsoft Teams in 2016.

Over the past seven months, this anticipated sequel has faced three delays, and its leading man, Robert Pattinson, is now in discussions for another project, “Dune 3”, slated to start filming this summer – around the time he should be donning the cape and cowl. To make matters more intriguing, director Matt Reeves has yet to submit a script. Although reassurances have been given by the director and studio execs about the movie not being scrapped, recent developments suggest that it’s not just possible but essential for this film to happen.
It’s quite appealing to be part of the Straw Hat crew from One Piece, as pirates have long been a favorite fantasy for many, especially when it comes to playing pretend games from childhood. Given this, it’s not surprising that a One Piece video game would incorporate role-playing game (RPG) elements. However, the vastness of the story in One Piece might present challenges in adapting it into this type of format.
Enthusiasts of the initial “Ghost of Tsushima” were given another glimpse at the sequel, “Ghost of Yotei”, last month, accompanied by an official launch date set for October 2nd. Many elements that made “Ghost of Tsushima” a success will carry over to “Ghost of Yotei”. In the trailer, Atsu was depicted slashing enemies with the same katana she had been pinned to a tree with, as the menacing Yotei Six torched her home.
