NASL finals awkward start
The NASL final started yesterday night for Europeans and the afternoon for North America. It is the North American Star League, the NA SC2 event for those who don’t know. I have been watching the matches during the last month and have been enjoying the commentary and games played between many professional SC2 players. [...]
Microtransactions and dev leak document spark mass protests on EVE: Online
After the recent Incarna expansion from CCP, people finally found out the real price of vanity items for their avatars. I don’t think anyone was expecting the extravagant price range that CCP are asking for. This was maybe a minor issue which rubbed alot of the playerbase the wrong way. The major blunder from CCP [...]
Impulse and upcoming games
After recently buying Sins of a Solar Empire: Trinity, I have been using Impulse just to mainly browse games, watch trailers and to load up SoSE. It is pretty unique, and the ImpulseTV is actually very good. You scroll left or right, select a game and your shown gameplay of the game with commentary. [...]
Xenonaughts: UFO: Enemy Unknown true sucessor?
Bring back memories? It certainly does for me. This was one of my favourite PS1 game when I a kid. I spent alot of my summer playing this game and being completely consumed by the depth of gameplay and content. Many games have tried to re-create the X-Com serise to various success, but never capturing [...]
The Darkness 2 E3 Trailer
Amazing trailer for The Darkness 2. Make sure you watch it in HD. Brutally great that the trailer is, who knows if the game will turn out OK. The first one was boring for the first 3 hours of gameplay, but eventually turned into a seriously dark and disturbing game that left an impression [...]
Dead Island video short analysis
I remember seeing this in some gaming magazine ages ago, and then hearing it being axed at some point in 2010. It is now back and being developed by Techland, and is looking very good. It definitely looks like a decent zombie-horror-survival game, with some scenes in the video looking very atmospheric. The whole [...]
Black Prophecy Review/ first impression
I have been playing BP (Black Prophecy) for the last week and a half. It is a free to play space MMO. If you ever played Freelancer, X3, or X-Wing, you have a game like BP. You use your mouse to look and direct your ship, left mouse button to fire, and w,s,a,d to [...]
Live Streaming for May
From now till the the middle of May, I will be streaming Black Prophecy. It is a free to play sci-fi MMO. You use the mouse and keyboard to directly control your ship, fly around and blow stuff up. It has only been released in the past few weeks, so its lacking in content, but [...]
Section 8: Prejudice Review for PC
While browsing the Steam store for an impulse buy, I came across Section 8: Prejudice. I never played the first one, and normally these kind of games do not interest me at all. After checking the game out on a few forums, it seems for 13 euro, its a pretty good game (or at least [...]
Might and Magic Heroes 6 trailer
Amazing trailer for Might and Magic Heroes 6 (or is it, Heroes of might and magic 6?). Really cant wait for this one! (I know its old, but its the first time Ive seen it.)
What’s new for May? New CPU, new games.
I stopped playing Shogun 2 after reading the eta for the patch being the beginning of May. I bought Arma II: Operation Arrowhead for the singleplayer campaign, and got sucked into the multiplayer (of which I highly recommend if you want a real military simulator experience). I also stopped streaming. My i3 530 @ 4.0GHz [...]
