3D Realms and Interceptor Entertainment today revealed Bombshell; a top-down action role-playing game for PC and PlayStation 4. In case you’re wondering then yes. This is the Duke Nukem RPG that was supposed to be revealed by Interceptor a month ago. It appears though that the company was not able to secure Duke Nukem’s rights. Continue reading

It seems that Crytek’s E3 plans have just been leaked. According to one of our sources, that for obvious reasons wishes to stay anonymous, Crytek will be showing two new titles at this year’s E3. One of them is called Project Grave and the other one is called Arena of Fate. Continue reading
Blatant, willful, and malicious. That’s what Wizards of the Coast think of Cryptozoic’s work on the digital card game Hex. They believe the CCG developers have misappropriated enough particulars of Magic: The Gathering to fill several pages of a patent infringement suit.
“In short, Cryptozoic has produced a nearly identical copy of Magic,” wrote the publishers in their claim.
New Eden has once again been the scene of a huge engagement, this time the result of a clever bait by the Black Legion alliance. Using one of their precious Super Carriers - one of the biggest and most expensive ships in EVE Online - they managed to bait the RAZOR alliance into a trap. It wasn’t long before the event escalated into a full blown Super Capital ship warfare from both coalitions of CFC and N3.
It was a bloody battle with over 500 billion ISK ($10,000) worth of ships destroyed, and luckily I was online and nearby to view the whole thing go down.
Oversized insects were heard joyously clattering their mandibles together last night, as Hydralisks had their anti-air capabilities upgraded. As the other bugs partied, however, the organic turrets remained inconsolable at their stations. The Spore Crawlers had no legs to dance with, for one thing, and had lost a portion of their own power to boot.
In the last couple of days, Bohemia Interactive “detected an attack” on some of their DayZ servers. Though the developers are still investigating the “precise nature and scope” of the security breach, the timing matches a claim by hackers that they’d managed to steal DayZ’s source code.
“Current development goals and schedules for our games will not be affected by this attack,” said Bohemia.

To begin, I will admit that Perish is not in any way an unheard of quantity in the world of PC games. It’s a roguelike-like with random generation and permadeath. Once upon a time nobody did that for 20 years, but now it’s every videogame. Perish does, however, sweeten the pot with Dark-Souls-inspired biff-thud-whump-*sounds of your own pitiful whimper*-ing and a gorgeously gloomy aesthetic. Basically, it’s Dark Souls meets Spelunky. It’s still pretty early, but there’s an alluringly melancholic trailer below.

Well mostly mobile ports, youtube bait "horror" games, B and C-Tier publisher back catalogs and Early Access titles.

Quality over quantity imo. Been spending more time in Battle.net and they just have 4 main games.

I agree that the more the better, but only as long as there are ways to let users know which games are worth our money and which ones are crap.
Please excuse my bad English.

There are lots of things we should do: look at both sides before crossing the street, don't talk with strangers, eat our vegetables, ... yet how many of us do it?
If it's cheap enough people buy anything. Hell, people even bought Aliens Colonial Marines!

| BasilZero said: Subjective for everyone :O. More different releases and content = more choice for everyone. What you do not like, someone else might like. Also battle.net has only 4 games because they are a timesink group. Their games are timesinks because they do not end! |
What the hell lol. Gaming itself is timesink if you are not having fun. In that case, one game can provide hours of fun while a waiting backlog of 1000 plus is useless. Agree about different things appeal to different people. So, the extra choice surely helps there.

If its a $1 in a humble bundle or getting it for free via a promotion off of Facebook, etc then that is fine, infact majority of my games are like that lol.... The most I've spent on a individual steam game was $7.50 and that was Borderlands GOTY :O |
In my case it was Darksiders 2 + DLC for about 15 €.

Buying games on steam has become a meta game in itself. During the big steam sales they even reward you with cards and other goodies, if you buy more and more games you'll never play. I am guilty of participating in it. :O
As Basil said, you got wisen up and as i said, quality over quantity. 
| JEMC said: Well, if someone has thinking in buying one of the yet-to-be-launched G-Sync monitors, maybe you should think twice because DisplayPort 1.2a will do if not the same, something very similar http://techreport.com/news/26451/adaptive-sync-added-to-displayport-spec |
This is awesome info, thanks for sharing.
