The resident PC elitist fanatic enthusiast, Andrew’s grim outlook on the industry provides CNS with a hefty dollop of its news content. Oh, and he has managed to convince Barry to let him review stuff too!

Obvious we will have to wait until release to see if the problems of F.E.A.R. 2 have been stamped out, but in the mean time, […]
Whilst GOG.com have generally stuck to their fantastic remit (old, frequently out-of-print games minus all DRM), they have offered up the odd stinker that really stretches the definition of the term Good Old Games. Now, not content to rest on their laurels, they’ve taken it to the next level by offering Kings Bounty : The […]

XCOM is coming back *happyface* There is no hyphen in the name *sadface* 2K Marin are developing it with assistance from Irrational 2K Australia *curiousface* There’s a strange (almost retro) screenshot below and a press release after the cut *happyface* It’s a FPS. *over-reactingface* More as we know it!
EA premièred a teaser for Crysis 2 in Time Square meaning, predictably, at least one of the Internet’s vast contingent was available to film it and post it to YouTube. The trailer currently links to www.sosnewyork.com, which just has a timer (presumably counting down to some HD/expanded trailer goodness), but watch this space! Lets just […]
