This is awesome. No, this is beyond awesomeness and is what we call trolling. A couple of days ago, DICE’s Mikael Kalms revealed that the company would offer an option to remove the color grading effect in Battlefield 3. Fast forward two-three days and here we are today with Mikael Kalms claiming that DICE won’t offer such a console command after all. Not only that, but the company won’t allow gamers to use third-party programs to remove it, as they will get banned. Imagine that: a team that was made what it is today from modding a game is blocking mods for its game. Now that’s hilarious. Continue reading Hilarious – DICE will not offer an option to remove the color grading effect in Battlefield 3 after all→

Ex-Midway employee, Sean Lantis, has revealed some early footage from John Woo’s Stranglehold sequel, Gun Runner, that was canceled a couple of years ago. As Lantis described, this project was basically the sequel to Stranglehold and was getting fully rebranded to appeal to a wider audience. Lantis was the VFX lead on this project and was in charge of all visual effects as well as a good portion of the destruction work. Unfortunately, this game never made it to production and all footage is from the preproduction stage. Enjoy!

Fatshark released the highly anticipated co-op DLC to Krater. Krater is a retro-flavored post-apocalyptic top down RPG where you control a squad of free-diggers through the perils of an open game world. It is not your generic action RPG clone – it is lush in its colors, hardcore and got a different vibe to it. The base pillars are crafting, exploration and consequence. Consequence brings not only the ability for the characters to level up and improve themselves, but also permanent injuries and death.

Joshua Stark has informed us about his latest pacman game. The Pac-Man was created with Game Maker 8.1, GIMP, sfxr, cgMusic, Anvil Studio, and Solmire. A game created by one person then. Which reminds me a game I tried to create when I was at the university. Back then, I was obsessed with game development and wanted to… well… create a game. I got half-way through there as I made – using only OpenGL commands – a cube that could be moved and rotate in all directions, included some mountains, a tilled terrain and a dynamic light source. It was a pretty cool project, but I abandoned it for various reasons (one of them was collisions). Sucks, I know. I wanted to even add textures and bump-mapping. And wanted to code my own bump-mapping instead of using the available libraries. Oh how foolish I was back then. But anyway, it’s good to see a complete game from a single individual, so kudos to Joshua. Continue reading Joshua Stark presents The Pac-Man; an indie tribute to our classic yellow hero→
