So want to try out Hearthstone. I've never kind of played these kind of card games but this one seems appealing for some reason. Also, ready to play Diablo 3, as soon as they patch & close the auction house.
Sucks that people try to ruin other individuals fun by hacking a video game company's website or service:/ Hope they get caught soon.
Blizzard has warned World of Warcraft users of a “dangerous Trojan” being used to compromise player accounts – even if the firm’s authenticator is being used for protection. Issues stemming from the Trojan appear to be stemming from a fakeversion of the Curse Client.
Brad McQuaid, key designer of EverQuest; co-founder of Sigil Games and developer of Vanguard: Saga of Heroes, is working on a new MMORPG titled Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen.

Though we’ll inevitably call Christine Love’s new game ‘Ladykiller’, and in Twitter arguments ‘LK’, this is the news - and in the news we like to stretch our legs a bit, because the truth sometimes needs to be tripped up before it gets away. Its full title, then: My Twin Brother Made Me Crossdress As Him And Now I Have To Deal With A Geeky Stalker And A Domme Beauty Who Want Me In A Bind!!
It's an upcoming visual novel set to break previously undiscovered character count limits of digital storefronts near you.

RuneScape is celebrating its 13th anniversary today, and to help ring in the milestone, Jagex has released a video showing what’s in store for players in 2014. According to the developer, the game is “going back to its roots,” via a collaborative effort between developers and the community. “We want to give the power to the players to decide what we do and when it happens,” said the firm. “In mid-January, we’re going to launch a new in-game poll system, which will give members at least one new content poll to vote on each week.” More information can be found through the official website. Thanks, TenTonHammer.
Throne Together, which popped up recently through a trademark application, has been released on the Windows Store. The free, Windows 8.1 block-based puzzle game tasks players and their dragon assistant Fidget with placing blocks to build castles for their “royal clients” while pleasing the Castle Inspector in the process. Build wisely, or risk being “overthrone as the kingdom’s premiere architect.” More through the link.
More concept art for The Evil Within has been posted over on CGHub by freelance artist Lu Cheng. The shots were dig up by fan site TheEvilWithin.net. You can check out the gallery below; however, as the poster over on the site notes, they may contain spoilers. You have been warned. The Evil Within is in development for the Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PC and is slated for release sometime this year. Thanks, AGB.

Reports have surfaced that YouTube personality and prominent Twitch streamer James “PhantomL0rd” Varga , whose streams were hit with a DDoS attack, was well aware that DERP were planning to bring his stream down – so he struck a deal with the lot.
Turns out Steam users are quite the sharers. At least, that’s what I’m guessing from the new rule change to the Family Sharing Beta. Previously you could grant access to your game library to as many machines as you wanted. Now there is a ten shares limit. Sounds like Valve found people were sharing their games with many more accounts than they expected.
Plus, you have to authorise specific users, too.
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive continues its rise to dominance as, last night, it broke through 100,000 concurrent players. It’s by far the most played Counter-Strike on Steam but it’s difficult to gauge it’s popularity in relation to the other versions of the franchise as records simply don’t exist.
Where’s Half-Life 3? Eh, Valve? Well, it’s hardly new discussion and Newell’s not gone and said anything about it to the Washington Post. Instead, their recently published interview looks into the structure of the developer. It makes for a fascinating read, too.
What the interview does give us a little of is why Valve weren’t initially, at least, keen to crowbar a sequel out of the design team. It would have them too set in their ways.

Skywind is a recreation of Morrowind in The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim’s engine, from the team that brought us Morroblivion. It’s one of the most successful and popular work-in-progress conversions, and when you check out how it’s shaping up int he latest video update, you’ll understand why.
Players and staff of eSports team Quantic Gaming claim they are owed around $40,000 by the team’s CEO, who has disappeared.
Ultra Street Fighter 4′s mysterious roster addition is female and related to the comics somehow, according to the latest teases.

DayZ sales have already passed Bohemia Interactive’s “very ambitious” plans for the survival horror sandbox.
Developers of Half-Life mod Faceless said that if they got it through Greenlight they would release it on Steam as free-to-play. The mod’s fans rallied and voted Faceless through the community system, securing it a place in the Steam store. At which point the developers decided they would, instead, sell the game for $10.
Generally, humans are really bad at predicting the future. For every correct prediction you can point to there are hundreds of incorrect ones out there. In short, the future is a surprise. A surprise wrapped in naff predictions.
So, a future in which spaceships are controlled by dice rolls may not sound like something we’d design but there’s no reason to say that Adam Atomic hasn’t get it right. In 150 years time it may be that your FTL drive will only spool up if you roll a six.
Right or wrong you should play Cubic Space because it’s a great little challenge.
My computer is a graveyard. Thousands of characters have died and been deleted during my gaming life. Each one of them banished to Random Access Memory. Even in a non-violent game, like Peggle, where does the ball go after it lands in the bucket? RAM.
Jason Oda’s latest game, Continue?9876543210 follows that fate further. You play a deleted computer game character as they try to eke out a little more existence before the computer wipes them from RAM, at which point they’ll be lost forever.
Not much crime happens in swamps. They don’t have a great deal in the way of assets or amenities that can be stolen, vandalised, trafficked, etc. Nefarious deeds-wise the only thing we at PCGN really use them for is hiding bodies. They’re great for hiding bodies.
Detective Grimoire: Secret of the Swamp breaks that mould. There’s a whole community and tourist attraction hidden away in the mud-slick marsh. And the whole thing could go out of business unless you find out who killed the... oh, so there is a body hidden in the swamp. Normal service can resume.
During its CES 2014 press conference, Nvidia revealed that its highly anticipated G-Sync monitors will launch in Q2 2014 from multiple manufacturers. Asus, Acer, BENQ, Philips, ViewSonic and AOC will be the ones that will manufacture Nvidia’s monitors. Continue reading
RedGamingTech has posted a new video about AMD’s TressFX 2.0. According to AMD, this newer version of TressFX comes with better performance and easier integration into games. In addition, TressFX 2.0 can be used for other things besides hair, like grass and fur.

Daylight publisher Atlus has released a new trailer for Zombie Studios’ survival horror romp. It’s all Unreal Engine 4-shiny, and looks quite grim.
Last year, AMD and DICE promised a patch for Battlefield 4 that will bring Mantle support to the shooter. The patch was expected last year – yes we can say ‘last year’ now – and as you might have noticed, it didn’t release. AMD has responded to the matter as a couple of leaked screenshots found their way out of a CES presentation, showing a supposed 45% FPS boost over DirectX.
Codemasters could be working on multiple rally titles for 2014, according to a fresh tweet out of the studio.

Unwritten, an intriguing turn-based strategy title where players must guide a tribe across a dangerous wilderness - described by the team as Civilization meets Oregon Trail - has hit an unfortunate road bump after being successfully Kickstarted early last year, encapsulating the unfortunate side-effect of these crowd-funded, personal game projects developed by tiny teams.
The project is - as developer Joe Houston emphasises in a Kickstarter update - still ongoing, it's just on life support. The budget was wrong, the estimated development time was wrong, and Joe's been struggling to work on the game while also supporting his wife and daughter during a period of crisis. Unwritten is not technically cancelled, but it's in a lot of trouble.
Consortium is a bit loopy: a mystery set on a gigantic plane in the future populated by special-forces types with chess piece names, you are yourself in the body of someone who should know what's going on. It's very confusing. There's a hint of Nomad Soul in the way the game acknowledges that you're a player and you don't know what you're doing.
Do you make your crewmates worry by asking silly questions, possibly getting sent to the shrink? Or maybe you'd rather pretend to be on top of things, bluffing your way through the enigmatic adventure. You'll get to decide what you want to do on Wednesday, because that's when Consortium comes out. Wednesday will be a good day, indeed.
One Katowice, two Katowice, three Katowice, four. Five Katowice, six Katowice, seven Katowice - oh, hi gang. You’ve caught me working on my tribute to the apple of southern Poland’s eye, Katowice: former seat of power of the Silesian Piast dynasty, 16th most economically impressive city in the EU, and now host to Counter-Strike’s next major community-supported event.
Though the tournament is sponsored by Intel and Asus, it’s CS:GO players who’ve raised EMS One’s $250,000 prize pool.
As we’ve already said, AMD showcased Battlefield 4 running on its upcoming low-level API, Mantle. Below you can find the video from that short moment. Unfortunately AMD did not reveal any comparison slides between DirectX and Mantle, though it claimed that Battlefield 4 was running 45% faster on Mantle. Battlefield 4′s Mantle patch is planned for release later this month. Enjoy and kudos to YouTube’s member ‘ Nepturion’ for capturing it! Continue reading
Man, this “gen-battle” is going to be really interesting. Nvidia vs AMD. Android support versus consoles support. TressFX vs PhysX. And G-Sync versus FreeSync. AnandTech has revealed that AMD’s answer to Nvidia’s mind-blowing G-Sync tech is called “FreeSync” and does not require any hardware modifications at all. That is of course if your monitor supports VBLANK. Continue reading
