Warner Bros. has released a new clip for A Minecraft Movie, and it doesn't feature any building, crafting, or pickaxes. However, there does seem to be love in the air for an unorthodox pairing. White Lotus actress Jennifer Coolidge's character is on a date at a fancy restaurant with a CGI Villager.The short new trailer for A Minecraft Movie--titled Be Mine--was shared on YouTube (seen below). The dinner scene is clearly over the top and played for laughs, focusing on Coolidge's character to start. "I recently got divorced from my husband, Clemente, and the main reason is, you know, he didn't have any personality," she says. "Not like you." The camera then shows off the Villager, who moves his unibrow up and down in excitement. That's not the last joke for the 30-second video, either. A waitress appears near the end, asking if the couple is "finished." This leads to Coolidge's character replying: "I think he's Swedish." This works on another level, too, since Minecraft was created by Swedish developer Markus "Notch" Persson and the studio Mojang is based in Sweden.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Netflix Gaming boss Alain Tascan has outlined his vision for the future of gaming at Netflix, and his aim is to help reduce "friction" similar to how the Wii helped opened things up for a wider audience.Speaking to The Game Business, Tascan said when he worked at EA, one of his ambitions was around "lowering friction and eliminating it." He was a big fan of the Wii because it was a lower-priced console that appealed to a wide audience, and Tascan wants to try to achieve something similar at Netflix.Tascan said some of the frictions that exists in gaming today is the need to have enough controllers in a home and having an "expensive" piece of dedicated gaming hardware. Waiting for game downloads is another friction, Tascan said. Netflix Gaming aims to offer solutions in these areas by eliminating the need for dedicated gaming consoles and controllers, in part because Netflix aims to offer games over the cloud. In fact, cloud-streaming games is already available on Netflix.com under the Games tab.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com
