The battle for Warner Bros. Discovery is seeing a new champion enter the ring, with Netflix making some moves to put their own bid in for the studio's properties. According to Reuters, the streaming pioneer engaged with investment bank Moelis & Co. in order to prepare an offer. Ironically, this is the same bank that worked with David Ellison at Skydance to take over Paramount whose first bid to buy Warner Bros. Discovery was rejected. It was the worst weekend at the box office this year, with ticket sales coming in at just $52.4 million. This also makes it the lowest-grossing Halloween weekend in 31 years, excluding theater closures due to COVID in 2020. While new film Regretting You took in a respectable $50 million, Black Phone 2 really has the crown from the weekend having now brought in $104 million globally - another huge win for horror this year. Yorgos Lanthimos' new film Bugonia, starring Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons, is sitting at a small $11.1 million globally after breaking into more theaters.Both Scream 7 and Stranger Things Season 5 released trailers recently.

In today's Daily Fix:Battlefield 6's battle royale mode, REDSEC, has officially dropped. REDSEC doesn't just include battle royale—there's also Gauntlet, which is a separate mode meant for smaller matches of 32 players. And there's also Portal, which allowed players to customize their matches. In related news, Activision is opening another free trial of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Multiplayer and Zombies. The trial is live now through November 3rd. This could just be coincidence that Battlefield's biggest competitor is dropping a free trial the same day EA launches REDSEC, or it could be the first in many head-to-head battles between two of the biggest military shooters in the games industry. And finally, Time Extension has details on a Matrix video game that the Wachowskis pitched to Hideo Kojima.

Welcome to episode #244 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we start off discussing some big changes that are coming to Black Ops 7 that will have a big impact on the casual experience of the game. With the beta in the rear view and eyes on the full release, Treyarch announced the return of open matchmaking to the full game, as the main way to matchmake in public games. This was one of the biggest changes they made during the beta, and now having confirmation that it is going to be the standard in the full game, we couldn't be more excited. This comes at a perfect time too, now that Battlefield 6 has launched with high praise. Activision and Treyarch have a tough year ahead of them regardless, and we share our thoughts on this, as well as some other quality of life changes coming at launch. Finally, we close with some CDL news, as now the bottom teams have nearly solidified their rosters. We share our thoughts on these moves, and who we think are the sleeper teams for the upcoming season. What do you think about the classic matchmaking returning? Do you fear that developers in future titles will revert back to the heavy SBMM? Will COD be able to compete with Battlefield this year? What do they need to do to have it be a successful year? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund just closed the largest gaming acquisition in history—$55 billion for Electronic Arts. But this isn't the typical private equity playbook.In this episode, host Joseph Kim sits down with two M&A experts who break down what's really happening:- Chris Petrovic - Board Chairman & CBO at FunPlus, former President of Publishing at Zynga where he orchestrated their transformative acquisition strategy- Matthew Kanterman, CFA - Gaming industry analyst specializing in M&A and financial analysisWe uncover the hidden truths behind the deal:→ Why EA's "operational bloat" narrative is based on an accounting myth→ The real reason EA chose to sell now (hostile takeovers? portfolio pressure?)→ Why Silver Lake's involvement is primarily "for optics"→ What "patient capital" means for EA's studios and the broader gaming industry→ The mobile strategy question: Will EA and Scopely actually integrate?→ Growth opportunities in sports, Asia, and transmedia→ Who really controls gaming's attention economy nowThis isn't about short-term cost-cutting. It's about sovereign wealth rewriting the rules of gaming M&A—and what that means for developers, studios, and the industry's future.Key Takeaways:- At 17-18x forward EBITDA, EA sold at a discount to Activision's 20x—why?- With Take-Two now the only major independent US publisher, what happens to exit opportunities?- EA's conservative accounting makes them look less efficient than they actually are- This deal is measured in decades, not the typical 5-7 year PE timeline

Profesionálne herné a filmové trailery nie sú len efektným zostrihom scén a dramatickou hudbou. Ide o komplexný kreatívny proces, ktorý kombinuje dramaturgiu, strih, zvukový dizajn, hudbu, a niekedy aj dávku diplomacie. Slovensko-české štúdio 4Boars má za sebou desiatky takýchto trailerov pre klientov z celého sveta. V portfóliu má mená ako Ubisoft, Bethesda, Netflix, Disney+, Activision, ale aj lokálnych tvorcov.V novej epizóde podcastu SHARE sa zhovárame so spoluzakladateľmi 4Boars Martinom Hatašom a Tomášom Olivom. Podelili sa s nami o zákulisie tvorby trailerov pre najväčších hráčov herného a filmového sveta.V podcaste hovoríme o týchto témach:čo by mal mať dobrý trailer aby zaujal nielen divákov a hráčov, ale aj investorov,ako prebieha spolupráca so špičkovými spoločnosťami,v čom sa v rámci spolupráce líšia menší lokálni tvorcovia,ako prebieha práca v tíme 4Boars a ako dlho trvá produkcia jedného videa,prečo bola hudba k Assassin's Creed: Shadows ich doteraz najnáročším projektom,aký je rozdiel medzi výrobou traileru pre film/seriál a digitálnu hru,koľko stojí tvorba traileru,ako využívajú v rámci práce umelú inteligenciu,akú hudbu počúvajú vo svojom voľnom čase.Redaktori Živé.sk vydávajú knihu: Zo série rozhovorov sa dozviete, ako umelá inteligencia čoskoro zásadne zmení svet okolo nás:https://zive.aktuality.sk/clanok/0RfdZVW/nahliadnite-do-buducnosti-vydavame-knihu-o-umelej-inteligencii/ Ďalšie témy súvisiace s podcastom:Tibor Repta o novej hre Gravelord: Vychválil nás aj tvorca God of War (podcast)Andor je bezkonkurenčne najlepším seriálom zo sveta Star Wars (recenzia)Zabudnite na Schwarzeneggera, Predátor: Korisť má oveľa bližšie k oscarovému filmu Revenant (recenzia)Kvíz pre fanúšikov série Predátor: Kultoví lovci z vesmíru poľujú na ľudí už 35 rokov, čo o nich viete?Prvá veľká ochutnávka chystaného Assassin's Creed Shadows: Pozrite si upútavku na japonský Assassin's CreedSlovák tvorí filmové efekty pre hollywoodske trháky.

Send us a textCuando un swipe se siente perfecto y una skin te hace sonreír, no es casualidad: hay diseño fino y, cada vez más, derechos que lo resguardan. Hoy abrimos la caja negra de cómo la ley de diseño, pensada para objetos físicos, está alcanzando a interfaces, animaciones, tipografías y bienes virtuales que viven en pantallas y metaversos. Sin jerga innecesaria, desmenuzamos qué significa proteger la apariencia —no el código— y por qué la estética se ha vuelto un activo con impacto real en negocio, lealtad y precio.Nos metemos en casos reales que marcaron el pulso global. En Estados Unidos, decisiones como PS Products v. Activision y WePay v. PNC muestran cautela frente a patentes de diseño sobre GUIs; en China, el giro llega con Jinshan v. Moonton al tratar al proveedor de software como fabricante; y en India, el Tribunal Superior de Calcuta legitima el registro de interfaces como diseños industriales. También repasamos reformas que cambian el juego: la Unión Europea ahora reconoce productos no físicos (GUIs, íconos, animaciones y layouts en entornos virtuales), Brasil admite diseños animados mediante múltiples cuadros, y jurisdicciones como Singapur, Canadá, Reino Unido, Suiza, Turquía y Australia afinan su enfoque. Palabras clave como diseño de interfaz, propiedad intelectual, metaverso, realidad aumentada, diseño industrial y protección legal forman parte del mapa práctico que trazamos.Más allá del qué, entramos en el cómo. Explicamos los requisitos de novedad, carácter individual y visibilidad en contextos interactivos; la famosa prueba del observador ordinario trasladada a pantallas; y los dilemas de comparar animaciones cuadro a cuadro vs. impresión global.

Hello there everybody, and welcome back to Trophy Talk! This week we're back to basics with Josh and Colin here to guide you through the latest trophy hunting news, massive game show announcements, and more. It seems like every year Call of Duty is too big to fail. Rarely is Activision's juggernaut franchise challenged by another shooter for supremacy. This year though, things seem to be different. With Battlefield 6 due out in one week's time, and hot off of a very successful Beta over the Summer, is this the year that CoD finally meets its match? Or does the recent acquisition of EA, news of a labored and glitchy campaign, and incredibly grindy trophy list end up positioning BF6 further away from the competition than it would like? We answer all of those questions as well as chat about the recent Sony State of Play, Tokyo Game Show, and other major announcements. Of course, in addition to all that we cover what we've been playing for the month of September, some Trophy Eco System news surrounding exclusive rewards, Patreon questions, and some initial thoughts on our journey with Silent Hill f. We hope that you enjoy the episode, thank you for listening, and take care!

It's been a bit of a rough go for Obsidian as of late. Compared to their usual RPG triumphs, Avowed felt quite a bit less than that. However, not all of it was entirely their fault. At one point, Xbox chose to make this the $80 game that would lead the charge in a new era of high prices. After considerable pushback, they chose to drop the price to $70. While a welcome sight, some have debated if even that is a fair price point for what appears to be a AA RPG. Now, marketing has kicked the hornet's nest with the latest companion trailer. So, here we are. Cog and Matty played the prologue section of the game and our thoughts are mixed. There certainly wasn't a "sound the alarm" moment, but it read to the Dukes like a less confident showing. Much of what makes an Obsidian RPG great is here. However, after the preview failed to show how that would be executed, both Dukes were left feeling like there is more that could've been done. Now, the tough decision falls to Xbox. Do you risk another preview and overexpose the game to try and correct things? Do you ride into launch and hope for the best? Time will tell, but we only have to wait until October to learn just how worth it Outer Worlds 2 will be.
