Paranoia: Happiness is Mandatory is a Delightful Orwellian Nightmare

When I first saw the reveal trailer for Paranoia: Happiness is Mandatory, I made the assumption that it was some sort of management simulator, similar to Prison Architect or a comedic version of Observation. Thankfully, I was incredibly wrong.

Unaware that developer Black Shamrock had secured the rights to the tabletop RPG of the same name, I was excited to learn that Paranoia: Happiness is Mandatory is a compelling mix of classic isometric RPGs and tactical combat sims set in a hilariously absurd Orwellian nightmare.

The world of Paranoia is a far-future automated habitat known as Alpha Complex, where everyone is Happy™. Happiness™, in this scenario, means thoroughly medicated and pacified by the various agents of the very good and kind, and definitely not-at-all evil supreme overlord of your little world, Friend Computer.

This Arcade Machine Connects to the Web for an Endless Supply of Games

Home arcade machines are much more accessible these days, but one thing that still holds them back is that many of them only have a dozen or so games. AtGames is trying to fix that problem with its Legends Ultimate Arcade Machine that not only comes with 350 games but is also connected to the internet, allowing you to expand your library with more arcade, console, and even PC games.

The Legends Ultimate Arcade Machine comes loaded with well-known classics like Asteroids, BurgerTime, Burnin' Rubber, Missile Command, Tetris, and Tron. However, this arcade really opens up when it connects to the ArcadeNet online service and AtGames’ array of cloud-connected PCs.

The Reason Marvel’s Avengers Spoiled Captain America’s Death

To the shock of many, the reveal trailer for Marvel’s Avengers debuted at E3 2019 shows the death of Captain America and what appears to be a flash forward in time to when a monument has been built in his honor. That’s a pretty heavy reveal to include in the trailer because it essentially gives away a huge early plot point, but when IGN spoke to Crystal Dynamics lead creative director and writer Shaun Escayg at E3 2019, he said the traumatic reveal was all by design... and that it may lead to one of Marvel's more out-there concepts.

“Well, Cap went down with the ship. The Avengers’ leader is Cap. The guy who always is logical, who always is able to bring this dysfunctional family together. Without him, how do they cope? … This is part of the set up, part of the conflict. It's, to me, the most exciting part of the story. What do the Avengers do without their beloved Captain?” Escayg said.

Hands-On with Microsoft’s xCloud Streaming Service and Halo 5

Microsoft is showing off its fledgling xCloud game streaming service at E3, and I was able to sit down and try it out for myself as well as discuss the tech with its General Manager, Kevin LaChapelle. The "cloud based gaming service" warranted only a brief mention in Microsoft's E3 conference, so I was pretty excited to discuss some of the details with Microsoft.

The company had setup a small demo table with a handful of Xbox controllers that had Samsung phones attached to them. Though the way the phones were attached to the controller screamed "pre-beta," the whole setup seemed to work quite well. Picking up the wireless controller I jumped into some Halo 5: Guardians, eager to check out how it felt and if there was any perceptible latency or sluggishness. Microsoft said the games were all being hosted on their Azure data center in the Bay Area, which is approximately 400 miles away.

Elden Ring: George R. R. Martin’s Involvement in New Dark Souls-like Game Explained

During E3 2019’s Microsoft Briefing, FromSoftware announced Elden Ring, a project in the works as a collaboration between Dark Souls director Hidetaka Miyazaki and A Song of Ice & Fire author George R.R. Martin.

“It all started with me being a fan of Mr. Martin’s works. A Song of Ice & Fire and its drama adaptation Game of Thrones are both masterpieces. I am also very fond of Fever Dreams and Tuf Voyaging.”

FromSoftware approached Martin for a meeting, but Miyazaki originally did not expect that Martin would be willing to meet him so easily.

“When we sat down together, it clicked right away. I proposed to make a game together, and he said yes. I was really surprised by how smoothly it all went.”

Marvel’s Avengers Will Not Change Designs After Fan Criticism

When Marvel’s Avengers debuted at E3 2019, the designs of the five heroes were met with heavy fan criticism online, with the main complaint being they looked like a pale imitation of the MCU Avengers of which they were clearly based on. Some cited how the Avengers’ faces created an “uncanny valley” effect because they look a few degrees off from the actors who played them on screen. Other elements that were picked on include Captain America’s overly bulky riot gear-inspired costume and the clunky discs that make it look like Thor has a sound system mounted on his chest.

IGN spoke with Crystal Dynamics lead creative director Shaun Escayg about the negative response from the community and he was adamant that the designs would not be changed.
