Metro 2033's launch trailer abound
A new trailer titled "Ghost of the Metro", produced for Metro 2033's release, has just found its way around the internet. It's poop-your-pants material, and makes me even more keen to give it a play through. But that won't be until the outrageous Australian Steam price comes down a tad... -

Jagged Alliance 3 in 2011

And it will be 12 before the next one arrives, but we do have confirmation of that happening.

The status on Bad Company 2 servers
It seems EA fell over at about 1am AEST, again. Since then, a new server-side patch has been released, and the Gamers-Underground.com servers have just been updated with it. This should fix the Punkbuster kick issues that are being experience globally.
Despite this, DICE has requested that all servers are run without Punkbuster enabled until the master server restart taking place at approximately 6pm AEST tonight - which didn't happen last night as planned.... -

More Bad Company 2 master server problems
During the night DICE were tweeting away, keeping the community informed about yet another major Bad Company 2 server outage. "All teams are actively engaged in diagnosis and remediation" we were told. Additional services are being added to help spread the load, but it's noted that "despite having a major infrastructure in place, the peak traffic this weekend has been huge, 400% higher than any other Battlefield's peak simultaneous users."... -

Mafia II goes boom, boom, boom with new trailer
The original Mafia was one of the most under appreciated games of the naughties. It's amongst a very short, short list of games I consider my most memorable - it did Grand Theft Auto, better than Grand Theft Auto. Needless to say, I'm very excited about this game. Embedded in this article is the latest trailer, for your viewing pleasure... -

Unexpected Bad Company 2 down time
Update: servers are back online! It was sure good to see so many new and old faces playing with us last night. In fact, the servers were full right throughout the night until about 7am when they went down for patching. Having just woken up and wanting to get back onto the Bad Company 2 servers, I've noticed that I can't. Neither can any of you, according to a bundle of Steam private messages this morning. Unfortunately, EA is experiencing an outage. An official Twitter states that it "affects a number of EA games. A fix will be done as soon as possible." Well, damn. With any luck we'll see you back on there shortly....

by cmdr_lynchieThe first two instalments of the Mass Effect series are widely considered to be some of the best games ever made. Certainly they rank among the greatest RPGs. With the outstanding quality of their story telling, and their stunning audio and visuals, they set the bar so high for the third instalment that some began to wonder if disappointment was inevitable. Thankfully the doubters have been proven wrong, as with Mass Effect 3 Bioware has not only cleared the bar, but they raised it several not...
