We’re nearly Back to Karkand…
… and we’re going to be able to fly harrier jump jets again! This excites me. This excites me a lot. See, I like flying helicopters, and I like flying jets, and in my mind a harrier is the best of both, and that means it should be helluva fun. If at least only because of the nostalgia I’m going to have when shooting the shit out of that big crane while a little guy tries running along it to avoid the hail of bullets from my minigun. Suffice to say, I can’t wait!

Gunpoint – Spying, Climbing and Jumping out of Windows
Gunpoint is an indie game being developed by PC games journalist Tom Francis. If you read PC Gamer like me, you’ll probably know him for his writing more so than his game development skills. Nonetheless, he seems to be doing a pretty good job of creating his first game. In it, you play a spy who has to break into office blocks, hack computers and take out guards before making a daring escape, quite often by leaping out of a third story window. But that’s not even the best bit. You get a gadget called the Crosslink, which basically lets you rewire any electrical device to almost any other in the building, allowing for some very creative puzzle solving…
The Humble Introversion Bundle
It’s once again time to get some fantastic games for almost no money. The latest Humble Bundle is out, and it contains all of Introversion’s back catalogue. So, if you don’t already own Uplink, Darwinia, Defcon, or Multiwinia, and would be willing to part with a single quid (or indeed, less), check it out. The company has been struggling to survive for the last few years, so I truly hope this makes them a crapton of money so they can continue making Subversion, which they had to abandon recently. Amusing trailer is below.
Skyrim is Almost Here…
And it has a new trailer. It’s very nice, and rather subdued, especially compared to most game trailers we are treated to, choosing to simply show off some of the locations and NPC’s we’re all likely to explore and meet once Friday hits. Yep, just 3 days to go. Man, I intend to get so utterly lost in this…
Battlefield 3 Launch Trailer
Only one week to go before we can have a battle on a field for the 3rd time. Click below to see the awesome singleplayer launch trailer.
The Avengers are Coming…
Marvel’s behemoth of a movie The Avengers, directed by none other than geek hero Joss Whedon, has a trailer out. Get your first glimpse of Tony Stark, Thor, Hulk and Scarlett Johansson in this quite spectacular piece of eye candy.
Betafield: Battlefield 3 Open Beta, Open Now!
Today, the Battlefield 3 open beta is a go! Well? What are you waiting for? Get it downloaded on your PC, PS3 or Xbox 360 right fucking now! I for one am downloading it on both my PC and 360, and will be shooting copious amounts of men, profusely, with various guns. Ohboyohboyohboy. Read More ››
Renegade Ops Finally has a Release Date
The PC version of Renegade Ops has been floating around without a release date for a while now, but Avalanche have finally announced that it’ll be made available on 14th October on Steam. As a bonus, we get to drive the buggy from Half Life 2 Episode 2, complete with ‘antlion special attack’. Sounds amusing. You can pre-order this game for a tenner, or go for the 4-pack (the game is 4-player co-op, ideal for a bunch of mates) which works out as £5 each. Trailer below shows off what we PC gamers can look forward to. This game looks like a lot of explosive fun…
Learn with Portals
Oh Valve, what crazy awesome things will you do next? Some lucky school kids got to visit Valve HQ to learn about “spatial awareness” and “physics”, when really all they were doing is building cool Portal maps. It’s part of Valve’s new plan of helping educate children in a more engaging way or something. I’ve always thought one of the best ways to get kids to focus on boring and complicated subjects like science and maths is if somehow they were presented in game form, but its not something we see taken remotely seriously very often. Click below to see a video of some of the luckiest little sods…
Primal Carnage Alpha Footage
Last night I dreamt I was in a dinosaur game, and it was awesome. No doubt, it was because I had seen this trailer for Primal Carnage earlier in the day. Being built by a small team in the Unreal Development Kit (UDK), it looks as though it shaping up to be bloody fantastic fun, and for once, this looks like it could be equally fun to play as either a dinosaur or a human. You have to see this.
Max Payne 3 – First In-Game Trailer
Remedy are out, and Rockstar are in. Old Max is out, and bald Max is in. The first gameplay footage of Max Payne 3 has been released, and you can see it below, along with some thoughts…
Holiday from Hell – Dead Island out this Week
Dead Island is out in the UK tomorrow. It was released in America a few days ago in what can only be described as a major balls-up whereby the developers unfinished test build was released for anyone who ordered it on Steam. Oops. Hopefully, the day one patch which came along shortly after has fixed all of those shenanigans and we’ll be able to play the game the way it was meant to be played. I was mostly curious to find out if it contained even a hint of the emotional heartbreak shown in that infamous trailer, but after the slew of hugely varied reviews, it certainly seems unlikely. The game does allow you to chop off zombie’s individual arms though.
