Manastorm: Lust For Guts - Delightful First Trailer
9:45 PM - - 6 Comments
Manastorm: Lust For Guts is an indie game that's been developed by 6 students for their final year project. To say that it looks fun as hell would be a painful understatement. Here are a collection of inspiring words from the game's creators and the official trailer, for good measure.

Listen up, puny newtlings!

When Manastorm arrives, you will no longer be maggots. You will be wizards. And you will be damn good wizards. You will be wizards capable of impaling a man on a two-inch shard of ice. You will summon a ball of God damn fire from the heavens, for the sole purpose of creating a human barbeque. You will crush, burn, slice, freeze, maim, disembowel and decapitate any unfortunate entity in possession of a heartbeat within a three mile radius. You will screw a man in holes he didn't even know he had.

You will be supernatural superagents. Magical majors. Sorcerous soldiers. You. Will. Be. Badass.

So prepare yourselves, ladies: MANASTORM IS COMING.

Blizzard DOTA: Cost & Accessibility
9:36 PM - - 4 Comments
Eurogamer talked to Blizzard's DOTA production director, Chris Sigaty, about the costs that may or may not be involved in their rival to Valve's DotA 2, alongside some changes that they're making to the game.

Differences in capitalisation aside, Blizzard's offering will include free access to the game via a "Starter Edition" similar to the one currently available for StarCraft 2. However, "if you come in through the Starter Edition, there will definitely be some costs". Exactly how these costs will manifest remains to be seen; Sigaty says that they haven't yet talked about exactly how the game will be monetised.

Further information about the game itself includes the news that average game-time has been reduced from 45-90 minutes to 20-30 minutes, with various changes and simplifications taking place that aim to garner greater "accessibility". Apparently, Sigaty felt that "the deep systems in other DOTA games weren't compatible with a fast-paced competitive game." Hm. You can read more about the changes in the Eurogamer article.

Blizzcon's Song Contest Winner
8:36 PM - - 2 Comments
More shrapnel from Blizzcon; this little ditty won first prize in the annual Song Contest. They really need to expand the Contest element of the show - dragon-based sand art and cake craft are both excellent suggestions that I expect full credit for at next year's Blizzcon.

Good Morrow! Blizzcon & The Incomprehensibility Of Starcraft 2
12:01 AM - - 14 Comments
The nebulous live-streaming of an internet-based event is being shot haphazardly and bandwidthfully into bedrooms around the world - it's Blizzcon.

Scandalously, I've never played a game by Blizzard (aside from extremely occasional and brief forays into their RTS games), but still I'm weirdly compelled to watch it unravel. I'm forever fascinated by these internet-events, even when they don't prescribe themselves specifically in my interest-direction. There's always some sort of endearing, slightly amateurish air to them; it's not TV, spit-shined into a blinding gloss. Nobody really understands how to do things well on the internet because so many variables are introduced and it's such a vicious, untamed beast anyway. It's compelling watching big companies with lots of money and muscle trying to do battle with it in a way that best suits whatever image it is they're trying to create or uphold.

I tuned in for the 90-minute World Of Warcraft presentation, despite my interest in that actually being represented in negative numbers, and stuck around for the StarCraft happenings too.

I've caught various snippets of StarCraft 2 tournaments since the game was released. I'm familiar enough with the format to have developed a genuine fondness for the shoutcasting escapades of Tasteless & Artosis, but the actual game segments are essentially incomprehensible to me due to the fact I haven't really played it (I've developed a weird mental-block about RTS's the way some people do about mathematics).

I understand it well enough when one group of dudes is attacking another group of dudes - I'm accustomed to the generalities of battling to the death - but to me, all the twiddly in-betweeny parts are indistinguishable from random chaos. Instead of monkeys on typewriters, it's Koreans on mechanical keyboards. The annoying thing is, I realise that I won't ever fully understand what it is that compels thousands of people to watch this stuff so intently until the day I actually learn to play the game myself. And that infuriates me beyond measure.

Impotent infuriation aside, here's a clip Artosis' brief transformation into a teenage schoolgirl at the hands of Tasteless. I laugh like an idiot every single time it hits the 00:35 timestamp, so I feel slightly hypocritical in mocking him for it, but fortunately a camera isn't pointed at my face.

By the way, if you didn't catch it live, I highly suggest you scope the Youtubes for footage of the annual Blizzcon Dance Contest, where astounding excellence inadvertently seeped from every awkward pore. Obviously nothing quite matched up to last year's undead male breaking his leg on stage, but I don't think anything ever will.

Future Portal 2 Update Will Feature An In-Game Editor
12:25 PM - - 6 Comments
We've just received a press release from Valve regarding a future update to Portal 2. The new update will feature an in-game map editor. Read on for the press release.

Valve, creators of best-selling game franchises (such as Half-Life, Left 4 Dead, Team Fortress, and Counter-Strike) and leading technologies (such as Steam and Source), today announced the second game add-on for the year's highest rated multiplatform game, Portal 2, is in development and targeted for release early next year.

This major update will feature an easy-to-use in-game map editor that will let users design, build and share their own single-player and co-op test chambers with the community, who will be able to view, play and vote on them with a simple click.

Portal 2 was released April 19, and currently holds a Metacritic score of 95%, making it the top-rated multiplatform game of 2011. Its first content update, "Peer Review", came out two weeks ago.

A hilariously mind-bending adventure that challenges you to use wits over weaponry in a funhouse of diabolical science, Portal 2 features expansive single and cooperative multiplayer game modes. For more information on Portal 2 and its downloadable content, please visit http://www.thinkwithportals.com/

That sounds like a pretty cool update to me. What are your thoughts?

Edit: We just got some images too.

Postal 3 Release Date Set
11:13 AM - - 16 Comments
Gbase.ch, a Swiss gaming site, recently got a scoop on Postal 3's release date. I've done my best to translate the original article for you all.
There will be an official release party for Postal 3: Catharsis in Cologne, Germany on the 10th of December. We were told this by Running with scissors CEO Vince Desi, who had just returned from a trip to Moscow. The anarcho-shooter will finally come out in December one month after it appears on the Russian market. Below are the system requirements, which we have known about since March 2011. We are not quite sure if they still meet the current status of the project.

Required:Single core CPU with 3 GHz, 1 GB RAM (XP), 2 GB RAM (Vista / 7), GeForce 6600 or Radeon X800 with 128 MB, 7.5 GB hard disk space

Recommended: dual-core CPU with 2.4 GHz, 2 GB RAM (XP), 4 GB RAM (Vista / 7), GeForce 7600 or Radeon X1600

It's also unclear if the console versions will come out simultaneously with the PC versions. This should clear up in the near future.

Thanks to Daniel Boll, gbase.ch's PC Editor, for the heads up.

So, any of you up for more Postal?

BlizzCon 2011 Begins Today
7:30 AM - - 0 Comments
BlizzCon 2011 kicks off today, and some free live streams will be available for viewing. The freebie streams will cover the opening ceremony and the tournament stages. DIRECTV subscribers in the US can watch the opening ceremony on the Audience Network. Pre-show coverage begins today at 10:30 AM PST, with the opening ceremony scheduled to start at 11:00 AM PST. BlizzCon Virtual Tickets are still available for those that want to watch in HD and catch the whole show. There's supposed to be over 50 hours of coverage including panels, costume contest and the closing concert with Foo Fighters. If you get a virtual ticket you also receive this year's WoW pet, and a yet-to-be-revealed StarCraft II in-game gift.

NVIDIA is going to be there to gear up BlizzCon. They'll be holding workshops for the WoW nubs that don't know how to use computers yet (ah-ha! ?) and they'll have some uber-PCs playing Blizzard games at the NVIDIA booth for attendees to mess with. Actually that's kind of putting it mildly, since NVIDIA is providing 1,000 GeForce GTX graphics cards to demonstrate the unparalleled experience of playing Blizzard games on a GeForce GTX-equipped PC. You can stop by NVIDIA's BlizzCon page for scoops!

Looks like in Jimmie Johnson's Anything with an Engine, players will definitely get their fill of redneck-hick jokes. Look out Hank Hill, Jimmie Johnson's mower is souped and it's coming for you this month!

The game introduces an eccentric group of characters – including Hazzard Mower, who uses his souped-up lawnmower to cut down the competition and Megaton, a former military officer who barrels around the track on a high-speed bomb – and features progressively challenging tracks complete with pyrotechnics, hazards, traps and jumps.

Richard Garriot's McMansion Can Be Yours For A Cool $4.1 Mil
2:43 AM - - 15 Comments
Have you ever wanted to live like royalty? OK, not real royalty, but the virtual kind. Richard Garriot aka Lord British of Ultima fame has officially listed his 3 bedroom 5 bathroom 5,900 sq ft home with RE/MAX, which includes a 360 degree observatory w/telescope, a pool, grotto, waterfall, detached studio, barn, and separate guest quarters. The asking price? $4,100,000.

The home was featured on MTV Cribs, and it's the famous spot where Garriot himself had to hold off a crazed fan by firing off a warning shot with an Uzi until police could arrive. If the pictures of the home and surroundings aren't enough to get you to open up your bank account, then perhaps a virtual tour will do.

Blah... "Dark Souls: Not So Great Greatsword" Edition
2:14 AM - - 16 Comments
I spent so much time the past two evenings trying to score a Moonlight Greatsword off this scaleless dragon in Dark Souls, only to find out that the thing wasn't a weapon I'd normally wield at all. So far as a magic user my weapon picks have been pretty crappy, it's a tad bit annoying. With the exception of my armor, I'm still rocking gear that I've had since earlier stages in the game. For whatever reason spears are my weapon of choice this time around - I alternate between a +5 Magic Winged Spear and a +2 Lightning Spear. In Demon's Souls I was hooked to slash based swords, not so much in Dark Souls.

I'd like to think that I'm just about done with the game at this point, now all I have to do is finish off the last four bosses. It's definitely living up to be as difficult if not more difficult than Demon's Souls. I'm not sure I'd want to put myself through this kind of game more than once every 2-3 years though, so hopefully From Software will give me a little bit of a break before releasing a follow-up of any kind.

Since it's the last weekend really before big releases start swarming in try to take it easy, and enjoy the outdoors, because odds are if you're an addict like me then the rest of your year is going to be spent on your butt in front of your monitor / TV. Let's see who can get the most blood clots!
