Five Developers We Want Back on the PC

PC Gamers miss out on all sorts of games as more and more of our developers move to consoles.  Some of these we can understand (such as Naughty Dog who have always been a Playstation Exclusive developer) but others used to be prominent PC developers who ditched the PC for consoles. It’s a shame that the five excellent developers below have stopped developing for the PC and we can only hope they return to the PC to provide us with more excellent games to play.

Midweek Sales Tuesday May 24

Not only are there a bunch of games on sale today, there’s one digital distributor that’s giving away a free game if you act fast.  All of the major online game stores are having some sort of promotion at the moment, and many of them are one-day-only, so smash your virtual piggy banks and take a look at these deals.

Terraria Review

Developer Affinity – Monolith

Sometimes, you come across a game that just sticks with you. The gameplay is always fun, no matter how many times you play it.  The graphics will never age for you even though the game is 6 years old, and you’ll never forget the first time you floored a Replica Soldier with a SPAS-12 in slow motion. Fine, maybe that’s a little specific, but Monolith’s F.E.A.R. fits that description aptly. Monolith has also released a plethora of other quality games over the span of their existence and, over time, as I’ve experienced more and more of their titles, Monolith has become one of my favorite developers, and certainly worthy of attention.

Hellgate Returning From the Dead As Free To Play Game

Almost three years after the collapse of Flagship Studios, T3 Entertainment has announced that Hellgate: London will be returning to PC gamers as a free to play title.

Games To Assure That You’re Among The Chosen When The Rapture Comes

Be fearful gamers!  The Rapture is upon us!  According to a radio evangelist, on May 21^st the righteous will ascend to heaven, while sinners are sent to roast in eternal hellfire!  Having spent most of our lives playing murder simulators, and teabaging virtual corpses in shooter games, we’re all going to fry!  But our salvation is at hand, because I’ve found a list of games we can all play to earn some good karma and maybe buy our way into heaven.  Read on as though your soul depends upon it!

Weekend Deals End of the World Edition

The internet assures me that the world will end tomorrow, which means that we only have a few hours left to enjoy video games.  Sure, logic would tell us to go out and buy the most expensive games we can find, since Judgement Day is at hand, and we’ll be too busy roasting in Hellfire to worry about our credit card bills, but let’s just go out on a limb and assume that fiscal responsibility might still be important next week, so we’ll try to find some good games deals.  For starters, we have Direct2Drive.com’s Potato Sack- I mean “Indie Sack”.
