Tom Hardy Clarifies his Comments about the Footage Cut From Venom
Tom Hardy has clarified his recent comments about the footage cut from Venom, telling IGN that everything he wants in the movie is in there, “and more.”
In an interview with ComicsExplained recently, the Venom star and executive producer said Hardy said that Venom may arrive without “30 to 40 minutes” of potentially his favorite scenes. Speaking to IGN at the Hollywood red carpet premiere of Venom, Hardy said his quote had been “misunderstood.” What he meant, he explained, is that some of the extraneous fun stuff he enjoyed as an actor was cut, but ultimately everything he wanted is in the movie.

After Resident Evil 7, Capcom Might Release More Cloud Games For Nintendo Switch In Japan
Capcom brought Resident Evil 7 to Nintendo Switch in Japan as a streaming-only game. This seems to have been an experiment of sorts, as the Japanese publisher is now apparently considering bringing some of its other games to the Switch in cloud form in Japan. A spokesperson for the company told the Wall Street Journal that Capcom will make announcements about other cloud games for Switch after it gets a look at the numbers and other metrics for Resident Evil 7.
Sources told WSJ that Capcom is already looking at “other titles” to bring to Japan as streaming-only games. However, it’s not clear what these other games are or when they might be released. Presumably they will be ports, just like Resident Evil 7, but this is not confirmed.
One of the benefits of streaming games from the cloud instead of playing them locally is that it allows the Switch, which is underpowered compared to PS4 and Xbox One, to play more graphically and technically demanding games. However, as with other streaming services like PlayStation Now, the quality of your experience will depend on the strength and reliability of your internet connection.
For Resident Evil 7 on Switch, another matter is that Capcom effectively only rents you the game. For that game, Capcom charged about $18 for 180 days of play. It remains to be seen if the same pricing structure would be implemented for future releases.
Whatever the case, many are predicting that streaming is going to become increasingly popular in the coming years. Electronic Arts recently acquired a streaming company to help with its own streaming ambitions, while Xbox has already confirmed it is working on a game-streaming service that has not yet been announced. Xbox boss Phil Spencer says Microsoft’s streaming service will offer “console-quality” gaming on “any device.” And of course, Sony already has its own streaming service in PlayStation Now.
Take-Two Strauss Zelnick said recently that he believes game-streaming will truly take off in the next 1-3 years.

GTA Online Brings Back an Updated Sumo Mode
This week, GTA Online is pitting players head to head. Well, I suppose more literally it would be hood to hood. Or hood to trunk. Or Trunk to side? Anyways, the point is that Rockstar is bringing back the year-two adversary mode Sumo.
The original mode featured a variety of sedans, muscle cars and off-road vehicles vying for control of terrain – usually a small island or the roof of a skyscraper – and would end either when all of a teams opponents had been knocked off, or someone could no longer fit inside the shinking final circle. Sumo Remix, on the other hand, has its own custom stunt arenas and a constantly-changing, ever-shrinking safe zone. While the original was a free-for-all demolition derby that eventually came down to a shrinking circle, Sumo Remix has everyone scrambling to get inside a new safe zone every 30 seconds.Each safe zone gets progressively smaller, so you’ll need to fight aggressively as a team to ensure you get a spot inside the zone and keep your opponents out. Parts of the map will occasionally disappear as well, so you’ll need to use caution when traveling between the zones.
New Tycoon Game Has You Grow and Sell Weed
Publisher Devolver Digital has announced a Tycoon game that has you growing and selling marijuana.
Weedcraft Inc is developed by Vile Monarch, the team behind Crush Your Enemies and the insult simulator Oh…Sir! and will have players carefully managing their resources to cultivate their own unique strains of weed to unleash upon the market.
Selling weed in America comes with its own unique challenges, and Weedcraft Inc looks to explore that by giving players the ability to try to impact legislation to make their business more viable or simply try to pay off the police.
This new Tycoon game promises to explore many different facets of weed culture. As a marijuana mogul, you’ll explore the world of weed from your typical recreational user to those desperate for medicinal cannabis and all the legal and financial aspects that go along with them.
