Bad Company 2 Server List for PC confirmed!

0

I have high hopes and great expectations for Bad Company 2 for PC. Honestly, I probably set the bar a bit too high so, as more and more info trickles down to us underlings known as gamers, I've been getting snubbed left and right. No prone. No modding on day one. After much deliberation, the ...

EXTRA: Scientists are stupid!

Rageometer:  (3/5) While perusing Tom's Hardware, I came across this oddly titled article.  I mean, let's face it, if you come across a news reporte entitled "Games Blamed in Return of Victorian Era Disease" you simply MUST take a look, right?  The long and short of the article is that Rickets is on the rise in Great Britain.  ...

Evony Review

Ah, Evony. My shame-game. I first learned of it through their horrible ad campaign. I’m sure readers have come across them as well and immediately had an adverse reaction as I did. In case any of you haven’t seen their banner ads around, let me just post a few examples…

We Are Not Alone

The real iPhone killer we've all been waiting for Apparently Haier (who?) had a wall at CES where they asked passersby to post their very own ideas for tech innovation.  Naturally, this produced some real knee-slappers, both intentional and otherwise, and I encourage you to check out Gizmodo's two galleries' worth here and here to see ...

Procedurally Generated Love

Whenever I look through Wired's GameLife blog, I find myself drifting anywhere between boredom and anger.  How can a gaming blog for what has to be one of the largest (if not the largest) tech publications in the world seem so out of touch so often?  Imagine my surprise when I actually found out about ...

Review: Dragon Age: Origins

0

I bought Dragon Age for two reasons. The first was that I was bored with what I was playing when we didn’t have enough people to get a game of Left 4 Dead 2 going (which will heretofore be referred to as Left 4 Dead; the original no longer exists in my mind, a sentiment ...

Modern Warfare MMO?

1

Over on Tom's Hardware I came across this article that Infinity Ward might (and I stress the "might" heavily) be making some sort of Modern Warfare MMO instead of Modern Warfare 3.  Though the author, Marcus Yam, discounts the rumor mostly because he doesn't think they won't drop a potentially lucrative MW3, I have to disagree.  We ...

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 PC Beta Info Imminent…[UPDATED]

2

From the Twitter account @L_Twin, aka KM Troedsson (which I believe is Karl Magnus...they're in Sweden so it's not that weird), Executive Producer for the Battlefield franchise: Attention: "Very soon" has now been updated to defcon "in about 30 minutes". Watch this space: http://bit.ly/3C7fri This is referring to a tweet from yesterday that said: Official and confirmed ...

Off Topic: Bono Is An Ass

0

"YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAAAAAHHHH!!!" But who didn't know that already?  The problem is, it would seem that he's getting worse with age, and I'm not sure we can repel douchebaggery of this magnitude.  In a piece for that bastion of truth and journalistic integrity known as The New York Times, Bono penned a "warning" for ...

Game engines of tomorrow

1

So Mack sent me this video of the new CryTek engine, CryEngine 3 (ok, not the most original name for an engine) and I was blown away.  The last time I was this impressed with a tech video was back when Source was debuted and they showed off the new G-Man.  Which got me to thinking ...
