Power up your PC!
Three pro murderers face off.
Warfighter vs. Black Ops 2.
Sit down and pay attention pilots because we won't be repeating ourselves. Wargaming.net is looking for a few good pilots (North America only) to test World of Warplanes and we're helping with their recruitment process -- we're giving away World of Warplanes beta keys throughout the day. To kick off this giveaway here's a first-come first-serve batch of beta keys (replace the spelled out number) that you can redeem right now on World of Warplanes' official site. Read More »
You know what I'm tired of? Size does/doesn't matter jokes. So I'm going to get right to the point: DICE is making the biggest Battlefield map ever for Battlefield 3's upcoming Armored Kill DLC pack. Bandar Desert is going to be 1,900 meters long, about 800 meters longer than Caspian Border's 1,100. For us Americans, that's almost exactly half a mile bigger. That's quite a jog. Read More »
So, Deadpool is getting his very own video game. He's been in a bunch of others, like Marvel vs. Capcom 3 or Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, so he's no stranger to the gaming world. But there's a difference between those games and the new one: We know what those games are about. In fact, just about the only thing we know about the new Deadpool game is that Deadpool's in it and he's voiced by Nolan North. Oh, and it's being made by High Moon Studios. That may be enough for some, but I'd like some more substance, if you please. Read More »
Hey jerks of the Internet, can you please not hack cool stuff? Everyone likes Minecraft, so we don't really appreciate it when you mess with the world-building game's servers. I mean, according to Mojang, you didn't really get anything from it anyway, so why'd you make us unable to play one of our favorite games? Read More »
So, I'm confused. Is Anna in my head? Is Anna in her own head, but trying to escape? Is she in the basement? Seriously, someone tell me. All I know, according to this trailer, is that she "has a mind." Looks like I'm just going to have to pick up the thing to figure out what in the world any of it means. Read More »
Thanks to the fist-pumping '80s movie montage theme song alone ("Awesome, Awesome, Awesome-nauts!") I'm sold. The folks at Ronimo just announced that they'll be bringing their platforming console MOBA, Awesomenauts, to Steam "within a month." Better yet, the closed beta is set to begin within the week.

Evidently there is a sizable contingent of gamers who are put off by Gazillion's MMOARPG, Marvel Heroes, because they won't be able to create their own spandex-clad characters. Hold on, the phone is ringing, I'll get back to this in a second. Hello? Oh, hey DC Universe Online. 'Sup. What's that? You're feeling down in the dumps? A bunch of gamers are put off by you because they can't play as their favorite superheroes and instead have to create their own? Huh. I think I know someone you should talk to. Read More »
A bit of background: I'm a Boston native and spent two years living a stone's throw from the Old North Church, the place where the "one if by land, and two if by sea" lanterns sent Paul Revere on his midnight ride. And I can't wait to scale that sucker in Assassin's Creed 3. Ubisoft showed off gameplay footage of AC3 at Comic-Con over the weekend, in the process taking us on a tour of 18th century Boston. Take a trip through Fanueil Hall and the old harbor within. Read More »
Devious Gabe Newell. The Valve boss once again lured unsuspecting PC gamers into his lair with the promise of delicious deals in the Steam Summer Sale. His plan: siphon funds from your bank account while simultaneously destroying the competition. The strategy played out with villain-mustache-twisting perfection this weekend as gamers gobbled up Ubisoft's price-slashed franchises in massive numbers, only to discover the volume of players the Steam Summer Sale created crashed Ubisoft's DRM-laden UPlay system. Sneaky, cold-blooded Gabe Newell. Read More »
It's surreal to think of the Mass Effect-verse being flattened into a traditional 2D animation, but that's exactly what's happening with Mass Effect: Paragon Lost, a prequel to the events of Mass Effect 3. This first trailer was just revealed at San Diego Comic-Con, ahead of a planned Blu-ray and DVD release of November 2012. Read More »
After looking at stats gathered from the original game, the big bosses at Gearbox have estimated that people will be playing Borderlands 2 for around two-and-a-half years after its release -- and they've decided to cook up a capless "badass system" to give players something to do with all that time.

So that's pretty crazy. The Secret World has barely been out a fortnight and the first update, "Unleashed," has already been confirmed for implementation on July 31st. Click through for more details. Read More »
Man! I can expel the biggest sigh of relief now as I admit that I've actually been looking forward to Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two. The distinctive ears' (and the Disney characters attached to them) debut on PC, before kind of sketchy, has now been confirmed by Warren Spector himself, and to get us excited, the intro cinematic's been revealed too.

I had a feeling something like this might be coming since Steam started selling physical gift cards in US GameStop stores: now through July 23rd, if you trade in a game for credit, you'll get 30% more money if you transfer that credit to your Steam Wallet. Read More »
