Don’t worry… It’s actually officially F.E.A.R. 3… F.3.A.R. is just on the box art. Still, when will ‘marketing’ learn that putting txtsp34k in our titles doesn’t make the game more ‘hip’ or ‘cool’… It just makes the people who made the decision look like fucking tools! Anyway, F.E.A.R. 3 has been announced for Xbox 360, […]

Out to rectify that, the BBC have announced that 4 episodic adventures will be released free* as companions to the new series starring Matt Smith. Developed by perennial British development house […]
Westwood had the best idea!
Well it seems the multi-player component of Transformers: War for Cybertron is doing what we really want of the game – allowing us to make our own shooty robots that specialise in shooting other shooty robots.
