We normally don’t like sharing leaks about early review scores, but Dishonored is one of our most anticipated games of 2012 and we are happy to inform you that CVG’s score got leaked today. The reason we are happy is because the game gained an almost perfect score (9.5/10), suggesting that it is indeed one of the best games of 2012. Of course, early reviews can’t be trusted – well, most of the times – but we are pretty sure that Arkane Studios is capable of delivering a really interesting title.

It’s a slow day today, therefore we decided to share with you a couple of videos that put Codemasters’ F1 2012 against Slightly Mad Studios’ Project CARS. Keep in mind that F1 2012 is a completed product, whereas Project CARS is in alpha phase and is not concentrated on F1 cars. That’s why the sound is not as good as we’d hoped in pCars, as they could very well be mere placeholders. We’re not going to take a side on this one, so enjoy them and tell us which one looks better!

Doom and Minecraft fans, this is for you. Reddit’s user ‘eohylanmay’ has recreated the first level of Doom in Minecraft. The map looks really cool, though eohylanmay decided to use Minecraft’s textures instead of those from id Software’s classic FPS title. The result is quite astonishing, although it’s not as perfect as an older map that was revealed a couple of months ago. For that, we decided to include below both of those maps. Enjoy! Continue reading Doom’s first level “E1M1” recreated in Minecraft→
Ah, Mafia. Such an amazing game. It’s sad that its sequel was not as good as we’d hoped to. In fact, Mafia 2 was one of the first games that had a really, really horrible ending. Our guess is that the develepoment team wanted to push some SP DLC stories after the game’s release in order to keep gamers interested in it (and milk their game for as long as they could). It didn’t work out for them though. But anyway, back to Mafia. Our reader ‘Jonathan Gustafsson’ has captured some footage from a mod that converts Mafia 1 to the RAGE Engine. Continue reading Mafia comes to the RAGE Engine with this GTA IV Mod→
Darksiders 2 was released a month and a half ago on the PC, but due to some other games – that were released alongside with it – its Performance Analysis got delayed. The game suffered from some port issues, something that was acknowledged by THQ themselves, and here we are today to see whether this game has been improved or not. Is Darksiders 2 a better PC game than it was a couple of weeks ago or not? Continue reading Darksiders 2 – PC Performance Analysis→
