On Thursday, Lucasfilm revealed on the official Star Wars website that the first standalone Star Wars film — one of the many planned to orbit the releases of the new trilogy - has locked in a director and screenwriter.Gareth Edwards (of 2010's Monsters and this summer's blockbuster, Godzilla) is set to direct, while Gary Whitta will produce the film's screenplay."From the moment I first saw the original movie as a wide-eyed kid," Whitta states in the announcement, "Star Wars has been the single most profound inspiration to my imagination and to my career as a writer. It is deeply special to me, so to be given the opportunity to contribute to its ongoing legacy, especially in collaboration with a film-maker as talented as Gareth, is literally a dream come true. I'm still pinching myself."
It’s Official: Zenimax Media Sues Oculus Rift

Well, a lot of things, really. The gist of the situation is that Zenimax claims Oculus stole technology pertaining to virtual reality that make the Oculus Rift headset possible. This was allegedly done with the help of John Carmack, co-creator of id and franchises like Doom and Quake, and a half-dozen other Zenimax employees.According to Zenimax, Carmack and the other employees developed VR technology under Zenimax contract. After passing off this technology to Oculus they joined the tech start-up (Carmack is Oculus' Chief Technology Officer) and continued to support the technology they had already developed.

But you can’t peel the stickers off: Play Rubik’s Cube on Google
It's pretty clear the folks at Google have an appreciation for games. Their fully functional version of Pac-Man for the game's 30th anniversary garnered some attention. Searching for "do a barrel roll" will make your browser do just that, and the ever-present Konami Code interacts with a number of Google services, like Drive and the Google Play app.Today the company is celebrating a different kind of gaming. Today is the 40th anniversary of the Rubik's Cube, and in honor of that occasion you can play a fully interactive version of the puzzle block in your browser.The popular 80's fad doesn't predate video games (it was released in 1974, several years after Spacewar! and the Magnavox Odyssey) but it does hearken back to a simpler time. Though now, I suppose you might say Google has made it into a video game.
YouTube is (probably) buying Twitch for $1 billion
No deal has been finalized yet, but as first reported on Sunday by Variety, it appears that YouTube - and thus, Google, which owns the video-sharing behemoth - is poised to acquire popular video game streaming service Twitch for a cool $1 billion.Why would Twitch want to be purchased? According to The Verge, it's a question of scale. Twitch has simply proven so popular and grown so fast that it can't keep up with its success on its own. The recent integration of Twitch streaming into the PS4 and Xbox One couldn't have helped in that regard.Other companies have sniffed around looking to buy Twitch, including one who is already a major player in the video games industry: Microsoft. But The Verge's source claimed Twitch had no real desire to tie itself to one gaming ecosystem and may even have sold itself a little short in terms of its worth in order to merge with YouTube.

Does Valve Even Look At What Games They Greenlight?
My original intention for this article was going to be a "best of the bunch" summary to cover the seventy-five games recently Greenlit on Steam. However, as I sorted through the list I discovered that a good chunk of those games were pretty...unimpressive, to put it politely. Hardly any of the games jumped out at me as looking particularly fun, let alone something I'd spend money on. A few of the games are so debatably bad looking that it makes me think that Valve didn't even look these games over before they gave them the greenlight.For awhile now, Valve has been approving batches of seventy-five games, every two weeks. That's 300 games in two months. That's 300 games that will be released through Steam on top of the triple-A publisher-supported games that are lucky enough to bypass the Steam Greenlight toll booth.Recent batches have yielded some really great games, and there are a few really great looking games sprinkled within this latest batch. But for the first time in Greenlight's history, this time around I felt like the unimpressive outweighed the impressive.
Pixel Heart Wants to Document the Lives of Six Incredible Gamemakers
Are developers and designers as interesting as the games they create? That's what the Pixel Heart project believes, and if it receives the crowdfunding it's currently seeking on Ulule.com, it will show the world via an ambitious multimedia project.It starts with a documentary that spends a week with six different developers in their own countries: Mark Healey of England (of LittleBigPlanet and Tearaway fame), Robin Hunicke of the U.S. (The Sims and Journey), Tetsuya Mizuguchi of Japan (Rez and Child of Eden), Edmundo Bordeu of Chile (Rock of Ages and Zeno Clash) and Eyram Tawia of Ghana (Africa's Legends). You may notice that's only five people, as a sixth developer from India is still to be determined.All six movie subjects will contribute something to the second part of the Pixel Heart plan, which is a game jam that will gather 100 developers in Paris for 48 hours. Split into 12 teams, the goal of the game jam is to create 12 new games, half of which will be PC fare while the other six aim for more immersive hardware like the Oculus Rift.
