I tell you, this is too good to pass by. YouTube’s member ‘myST4SH’ has posted a hilarious jet video of Battlefield 3. myST4SH was on dogfight when his plane got a lot of damage. The player tried to avoid exploding and in a risky attempt, he crashed his plane into some trees. To his surprise, his plane didn’t explode, therefore he decided to repair it. What comes after that is funny as hell, and that’s mainly due to the captions and music that myST4SH used. Now this is precisely why Battlefield 3 is so great. These scenes can only be experienced in BF3. Enjoy! Continue reading This is perhaps the most hilarious Battlefield 3 Jet Video→

This is too good to pass by. Reddit’s user MikkelManDK has spotted a nice surprise inside the installation folder of Syndicate PC. It seems that Starbreeze decided to include a .nfo file as an easter egg that is addressed to the PC piracy scene.

Starbreeze went ahead and placed a similar file into Syndicate’s folder (SBZ.nfo and SBZ stands for StarBreeZe) with proper instruction in how you can install and play the game. Great find MikkelManDK! Continue reading Syndicate PC features an amazing easter egg, addressed to the PC gaming piracy scene→
