Syndicate PC features an amazing easter egg, addressed to the PC gaming piracy scene

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. In case you are unaware of, most scene groups place a .nfo file in their releases with installation instructions. 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 →

Mass Effect 3: From Ashes DLC Detailed; screenshots and video coming in the following days

A couple of days ago, Mass Effect 3’s “From Ashes” DLC was leaked via XBLA. Obviously, BioWare wasn’t prepared for such a leak and after a few days, the company decided to clarify why it was not included in the main game and reveal some more details about it. The content in From Ashes was developed by a separate team (after the core game was finished) and not completed until well after the main game went into certification. And that’s why the content was not included in the main game. Continue reading Mass Effect 3: From Ashes DLC Detailed; screenshots and video coming in the following days →

Mass Effect 3 ARG Launched; Petition Asks Government To Release Info About UFOs

BioWare has launched an alternative reality game (ARG) for Mass Effect 3.
