Earlier today, we found out that some internal story files for Mass Effect 3 have been leaked. Those who read those spoilers already know how Bioware’s upcoming action/RPG game ends, who lives and who dies. And although Jesse Houston stated at Bioware’s official forum that those story files contained information that was out of date, EA and Bioware sent a cease and desist notice to the well-known gaming forum, NeoGAF.

A few days ago, we reported that the US version of Batman: Arkham City would be delayed. Some PC gamers didn’t really care as the European version was still on track for the November 18th release. Moreover, all those living in ‘the land of the free’ would definitely use some proxy servers to unlock their game as soon as the European version was out. Well, bad news for everyone as Steam has informed us that the European version of Rocksteady’s highly anticipated action adventure game, Batman: Arkham City, is also delayed to November 25th. Continue reading Batman: Arkham City’s PC European Version Is Also Delayed→

As we said in our performance analysis, we love Bohemia. Yes, Take On Helicopters has some performance issues with modern-day hardware but this is a title for a niche market and a game that could have not been developed by – pretty much any – other triple-A studios. Yeap, that’s the magic of independent games. And we are really amazed with its protection system as it’s not as intrusive as Ubisoft’s awful attempts, yet it’s even more effective than the atrocious always-online DRM systems. Continue reading Take On Helicopters features an amazing anti-piracy protection system→
Croteam and Devolver released a new trailer for Serious Sam 3: BFE. This trailer shows Sam’s new melee attacks and… damn Samy boy, you are truly heartless. Serious Sam 3 looks like fun with lots of enemies and mindless action. Pretty much like in those golden days. The game is slated for a November 22nd release on the PC so make sure to mark your calendars. Enjoy the trailer after the jump. Continue reading Serious Sam 3 BFE – Melee Attacks Trailer→
So you thought that BF3 will be the best selling PC game for the following weeks, right? Well, guess again as Football Manager 2012 has managed to reclaim its throne. That’s right, SEGA’s soccer manager is at the top of the UK PC retail charts yet again. What really caught our attention though was the return of EIDOS’ Human Revolution, as it gained nine whole places. Damn, now that’s impressive. Blizzard’s MMO can also be spotted at the sixth place, proving that this massive MMORPG still has some life left in it. Continue reading Weekly Top 10 PC Charts; UK PC Retail and Steam Digital Charts [October 30th – November 5th]→
Let us say that we love indie developers and especially Bohemia Interactive. The ArmA series is one of the best military simulation series ever, although its graphics engine is a bit problematic and rough around its edges. So when we heard about Take on Helicopters, we were skeptical. You see, instead of using the brand-new ArmA 3 engine, Take on Helicopters uses ArmA 2’s engine. And believe us, we tried. We really tried to enjoy Take on Helicopters but the game is currently plagued with performance issues and a – possibly – broken SLI profile. Therefore, if you own an SLI system, stay away from Take on Helicopters, for the time being. Why? Keep reading to find out. Continue reading Take On Helicopters Performance Analysis→
