Codemasters has just announced a new title in their Fomula 1 racing series. This one’s different, though. Like many other games being developed today, the new F1 game will be online and free-to-play, titled “F1 Online: The Game“.
The PC rumor mill was buzzing today with talk of a possible new
Counter-Strike title from Valve. Why does this matter?
Counter-Strike really put competitive multiplayer shooters on the map
back in the late 90’s and early 2000’s as it turned into a global
phenomenon. Although it was just a Half-Life mod like Team Fortress it became insanely popular. Version 1.6 is still played
today.
Thirty years have passed since the Personal Computer was created. In
those thirty years, the PC has been at the forefront of technology with
bleeding-edge graphics and utility. It has had an immense influence on
new technologies, economics and has helped shape the world we know.
Thirty years have passed since a team at IBM gave birth to the idea of
the PC. Today Mark Dean, who worked on that team, is claiming the PC is
dead.
It’s quite a surprise that the Dead Island trailer took the internet by storm in the way it did. The game being developed by Techland has been relatively unknown since it was first announced in 2008 and I don’t even think Techland expected their debut trailer to be as successful as it was.
There are some great sales going around the internet right now, with one online store is in the second week of their big Summer Sale, and several one-day-only deals on hot indie games.
An absolute ton of details have come out regarding the recently announced Borderlands 2 in the last few days. One of the biggest things that will seperate Borderlands 2 from the original is that you will take control of one of four all new playable characters in game. While Gearbox aren’t completely abandoning the old playable characters (They will be appearing in the game as NPCs) they are already placing a big focus on the new characters, the first of which is Salvador the Gunzerker (I can only assume this is an fusion of the Berserker and Soldier classes from the first game) who has the confirmed ability to dual wield any two weapons. Check him out below:
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim has received a great amount of praise after Bethesda showed that impressive demo back at E3, and many people have most likely pre-ordered it already. However, the hardcore fans may want to hold off on pre-ordering the normal game, as Bethesda has just announced a Collector’s Edition for Skyrim.
It’s bad news for gamers looking forward to the upcoming turn based RPG strategy game Might and Magic: Heroes VI as it’s just been delayed again, this time to the 13th of October. The delay comes as a bit of a suprise as it was already delayed earlier this year, originally slated for release in June of this year but got pushed back to the 8th of September.
Fans of both Minecraft and its creator, Markus “Notch” Persson, probably know about his developer company, Mojang, and its next project entitled Scrolls. Apparently, so does Bethesda, because their lawyers are suing Mojang for copyright infringement of The Elder Scrolls’ trademark.
Originally scheduled to come out at the end of August, Tripwire Interactive’s WWII shooter Red Orchestra 2 has been delayed, with the developer citing a need to add extra polish to this PC-exclusive title.
