Square Enix Montreal is no longer making Go games

Posted: 03 Jun 2018 01:11 PM PDT

If you've been hoping for a new clever mobile Go game from Square Enix Montreal, you're out of luck. In an interview with PocketGamer, the studio behind Hitman Go and Lara Croft Go says that it is no longer producing the premium mobile games in the series, focusing instead on free-to-play games.

Square Enix Montreal studio head Patrick Naud confirmed that the studio is not working on any new Go games, saying that "one of the challenges we have today is the premium mobile market is diminishing." He pointed specifically to their prices (the Go games are each $4.99), saying that it's "such a big barrier for mobile users."

Square Enix Montreal was founded in 2011 as a traditional studio, but pivoted to mobile games, taking popular...

Sony removed Spider-Man spinoff Silver & Black from its schedule

Posted: 03 Jun 2018 01:00 PM PDT

Sony's ambitions to try and build its Spider-Man cinematic universe without Spider-man has hit another stumbling block: it's removed Silver & Black from its release schedule and is sending it back for further development.

Word broke last year that Sony was developing the superhero spinoff based on the Spider-Man-adjacent characters Black Cat and Silver Sable, and Sony announced that the film would hit theaters in February 2019, just months after its other Spider-Man spinoff film, Venom, would hit theaters. Now, Deadline reports that the film is off the schedule completely, and is headed back into development.

Spider-Man has long been Sony's "crown jewel," according to Ben Fritz in his book The Big Picture: The Fight for the Future of...

The Xbox One will reportedly soon support Alexa and Google Assistant

Posted: 03 Jun 2018 11:14 AM PDT

Microsoft's Xbox One console will soon include support for both Amazon's Alexa digital assistant and the Google Assistant. Windows Central reports that future versions of the Xbox One dashboard include the ability to enable Alexa and Google Assistant support through a skill on both platforms. Microsoft currently only supports its own Cortana digital assistant, through its Kinect accessory or a headset, but Cortana has a limited set of skills right now.

The expansion to Alexa and Google Assistant support could mean Xbox users will be able to control their console through both of the digital assistants. It's not yet clear exactly what features Microsoft will support, but it will likely mean Xbox One owners won't have to use a Kinect or...

Hacker charged with murder after a worker dies building his underground tunnel system

Posted: 03 Jun 2018 11:00 AM PDT

In September, 21-year-old Askia Khafra was found dead after a house fire in a suburban Bethesda home belonging to security researcher Daniel Beckwitt. Now Beckwitt has been charged with murder in connection with Khafra's death. Prosecutors say Khafra had been hired to construct an intricate network of tunnels below Beckwitt's home, and that his death resulted from unsafe working conditions.

According to court documents, the tunnels were dug 20 feet below the basement of the home, spanning as far as 200 feet. The tunnels were constructed under extreme secrecy, with local permitting agencies unaware of the full extent of the construction. Khafra arrived at the work site wearing black-out glasses to prevent him from knowing its location;...

Posted: 03 Jun 2018 10:47 AM PDT

June 1st marked the beginning of Pride month, and last year, users who liked Facebook's LGBTQ@Facebook page could get a custom reaction of a rainbow pride flag for a limited time. This year, that option doesn't appear, and Facebook tells Business Insider that won't be releasing custom reactions anymore.

Facebook rolled out its expanded like button reactions — Like, Love, Haha, Wow, Sad, and Angry — back in 2016, and has experimented with several custom ones over the years: the company rolled out a purple flower for mother's day in 2016 and 2017, as well as a custom versions of the reactions to commemorate Star Trek's 50th anniversary in 2016.

But it seems like those temporary buttons are no more — Facebook didn't release a flower or...
