Fear not PS3 owners – you won’t be treated like deferred citizens (I hesitate to use the term second class, since you got a bunch of add-ons) this time round, as the return to Rapture will be handled simultaneously on all formats come Q4 2009, although I’m not sure if that’s fiscal or real year. […]

Telltale have popped the demo for Episode 1 of Wallace & Gromit’s Grand Adventures on their site. Featuring a F.E.A.R.-esque amalgamation of scenes from the episode, it’s a good chance to acquaint yourselves with the Wensleydale Wonders ahead of the PC release on the 24th.

Killing Floor goes commercial
Tripwire Interactive have announced that the popular Unreal mod, itself based on their Red Orchestra modified Unreal 2.5 engine, will be released on Steam (and, presumably, other digital platforms) in the near future. Whilst not specifically developed by Tripwire themselves (who are beavering away on an as-yet un-announced project), they are providing support to the […]
The PC has been largely free of the blight of the monetised morsels of gameplay that is Downloadable Content. Largely down to the lack of a standardised platform with which to distribute (and collect payment), ala. the current games consoles, nobody has really managed to get a firm grip on the masses who prefer to […]
I’m hoping the title is a misnomer, given Obsidian’s past form (which honestly gives Troika a run for their money!), you can’t blame me for being apprehensive.

Games that wear both their pretensions and sense of humour on their sleeves are always welcome in my book and none does it more-so than Stalin vs. Martians (or: what really happened on the eastern front during the Second World War). To celebrate the games near-release, the developers have collaborated with Russian metal band ANJ […]
We already know Batman: Arkham Asylum is 99.9% likely to be fucking awesome. Despite being the debut game from Rocksteady studios, all footage released of the game so far has ticked almost every box on the ‘reasons why Batman is just so damn great’ list. Now we get some more substantial gameplay footage.
Kudos to RPS for this one. Disney have stepped into the arcade racer fight with Split/Second, a racing game that differentiates itself from the crowd by offering various methods of defeating your opponents by bringing the world down on them, literally. Knocking chunks off freeway overpasses, blowing out storm drains and dropping girders from cranes […]

Planet Fallout has an interview with Jeff Gardiner regarding the second DLC pack for the post-apocalyptic FPSRPG. The article mostly fills us in on details we knew already, but Bethesda’s senior producer does provide more detail about the arena fights on offer and points out that the player will be able to return to the […]
