This is perhaps the creepiest Battlefield 3 video you’ll ever see

Let me borrow some of ‘Morpheus’ lines from the first Matrix movie. Have you ever had a dream that you were so sure it was real? What if you were unable to wake from that dream. How would you know the difference between the dream world, and the real world? Well, that’s exactly the idea behind birgirpall’s latest experimental BF3 video. Even though BF3 is an action shooter and nothing more, you can come up with some really creepy stuff when you throw in some proper and ambient music, great montage skills and a lot of fantasy. Special thanks to our friend ‘Ghost Rider LSOV’ for sending us this video. Enjoy! Continue reading This is perhaps the creepiest Battlefield 3 video you’ll ever see

John Romero: not a fan of the ‘Gears of War’ type of games, new game based on user’s skills

Well, this seems unlikely but we do know that if Romero was part of iD when Doom 3 was in development, it wouldn’t take the survival horror route. Continue reading John Romero: not a fan of the ‘Gears of War’ type of games, new game based on user’s skills

In other words, Project CARS looks that good. And did we mention that one shot shows tire deformation? Enjoy! Continue reading New Project CARS Community Screenshots
