  • Gamespy's shutdown, Bioshock the movie, Dragon Age: Inquisition - we're covering all that

  • and more on this week's edition of the Curse Weekly Roundup.

  • With the recent announcement that online matchmaking client Gamespy is shutting down, 2K reassured

  • fans that the Civilization and Borderlands series will stay online - they'll be migrating

  • to Steamworks after a temporary downtime during the transition. Many other publishers have

  • also announced that many of their titles will service the GameSpy shutdown, but unfortunately

  • Crysis and Crysis 2 did not make the cut. Meaning that as of May 31st when the service

  • officially closes, you will no longer be able to play Crysis and Crysis 2 multiplayer. If

  • you're desperate to save these titles, however, there is an online petition urging EA and

  • Crytek to find an alternate matchmaking provider, we'll link you to that in the video description.

  • Well, it's that time of year again - time to dust off your swim trunks and hit the beach

  • because spring is here! Oh wait, no, time to stay inside F5ing every gaming news outlet

  • you follow because the first teaser image for the next Call of Duty game has been revealed.

  • Neat. It's a soldier. And his nose. Seriously, look at that thing. That's awesome, and gives

  • us so much information about the next title. Anyway, Sledgehammer Games is the developer

  • of this next title, to be released Fall of 2014.

  • A Bioshock movie may be on its way - Monday brought news that Sony Pictures had registered

  • several web domains including Bioshock-Movie.com and Bioshock-Movie.net. Evidently a bioshock

  • movie was in the works back in 2011, with Pirates of the Caribbean director Gore Verbinski

  • to direct the film. It was set to be rated R, but after another R-rated movie that year,

  • The Watchmen, was a box office failure, the Bioshock movie was scrapped. Now there's speculation

  • that the movie could be back on the horizon, but there's no word yet on whether 2K or Irrational

  • has anything to do with the domains that Sony registered.

  • Bioware has released a new gameplay trailer for Dragon Age: Inquisition. In the game,

  • the Inquisitor is the lone survivor of a cataclysmic blast, and the only one who can stop the demons

  • terorrizing the land of Thedas. Dragon Age: Inquisition will be released on October 7th

  • of this year, and you can click the link below to view the gameplay trailer for yourself.

  • The Xbox One finally has a release date in Japan - September 4th. Yup, almost 10 months

  • after it launched in the west, and 7 months after the PS4's Japanese release. No news

  • yet on the price point in Japan, but with E3 just around the corner, we'll probably

  • find out soon.

  • That's it for the news this week! As always, be sure to comment, rate, and subscribe, and

  • I'll see you guys next time! Until then, enjoy the game.
