The story of Grotesque Tactics 2: Dungeons & Donuts begins as the citizens of the Kingdom of Glory celebrate their victory over the Dark Church. While in the catacombs of their former enemies, their revelry is disturbed by a sudden all-encompassing fog. Those that remain alive after the strange attack, barricade themselves in the depths of the catacombs. As time passes, food becomes scarce and the people of the Kingdom of Glory begin to realize that they might all meet their demise. The ‘heroic’ Knights of Glory, shady mercenaries and the arrogant high elves band together into guilds in order to survive and escape the dank catacombs. Unfortunately, the guilds are far too concerned with their distaste for each other, thus allowing for an awakening of dark forces in the dungeons below.

EA wouldn’t comment on whether any future Battlefield 3 DLCs would also be part of the regular map rotation.

Read on for details about what the Arena DLC adds.
In the "Bloodbath Arena" DLC four different arenas offer new challenges that can be played alone or in coop mode. It's a desperate fight for survival where waves after waves of unrelenting zombies attack, one more gruesome than the next! In this DLC characters can loot experience points and items and bring them over to the campaign mode. Players can show off their skills in zombie fighting with the newly implemented leaderboards. The brain wave bomb, a new exclusive weapon, tops this DLC package off.

Naturally, the Tactical Flashlight isn’t the only thing that’s on DICE’s to do list.
Kertz also says that DICE are also considering changes to the effectiveness of mobile AA guns. Their damage output is less of a problem than the projectiles’ effects on jet and chopper trajectories. It’s thought that the storm of anti-air ordinance can too easily throw airborne vehicles off course.In addition, DICE are aware that the inability to repair jets puts them at a distinct disadvantage over other vehicles. Choppers can land and be repaired by engies from within, but landing a jet is a far harder task. Short of strapping engineers to the wings of each jet, it’s hard to see how DICE will get around this without giving planes a limited self-repair ability.
Those lights were really getting on my nerves. I can’t wait for them to be toned down a notch.

Linkage... Pork E. Pigskin might be a bit much, even for me. Thanks G!

Best Game: Pixel May Cry by Feng Li ― a pixelly 2D hack'n'slash for the PC. There's a video here but I can't find anywhere that the game itself is available yet.
Best Mobile Game: The Line HD by Ant Hive Games ― an action puzzle game in which you draw and erase lines in order to help a dude escape increasingly complex environments. I'd quite like to play it on PC, but it's stuck in App Store land.
Excellence In Technology: Void by Digipen in Singapore ― a first person game involving time-skipping and hopping between two worlds in order to solve problems and, apparently, fix your wrongs. What did you do? You can download it here.
Excellence In Audio: Super Sheep Tap ― video here, another App Store dweller. Sometimes sheep can go wild.
Excellence In Visual Arts: Pocket Warriors ― App Store game with a video; slaying monsters and dragons in cutesville. It looks pretty slow-paced.
Best Student Game: the aforementioned Void by Digipen in Singapore.
Excellent Student Winners:
Pixi by Digipen in Singapore ― a (downloadable) game in which you guide a ball of light (Pixi) over arrows that you can vary the direction of with your mouse in order to defeat the enemy (Boxi).
Robotany by Singapore-MIT GAMBIT Game Lab ― playable in your browser here, it's essentially an experiment in letting its players make AI. Robots are standing in a garden waiting for you to give them instructions in order that they can set to tending it themselves. There's a nice article about it over at MIT News.
More information about the competition and cash prize amounts can be found at Gamasutra.

The games in question are Irukandji and Bullet Candy Perfect, a neon underwater vertically scrolling shmup and a neon arena shmup respectively. Shmups are pretty big on neon in these trying times. The other games in the pack remain the same; Night Sky, Fate of the World, Scoregasm and Ben There, Dan That alongside Time Gentlemen, Please!. You can snap it up violently over at indieroyale.com - the minimum price is currently hovering around the £2/$3 mark.

I decided that buying Skyrim could effectively end my degree, so I'm avoiding it entirely. There's already a mod out (to increase the detailing on the faces of human and elven races), so it can only improve the longer I unwillingly shun it. Jube's PC Impressions highlighted some of the janky stuff; what do you think needs the most work?

Aside from that, I've belatedly realised the existence of British Pathe's Youtube. It's amazing. Reassuring sounds of clipped condescension from 1940s gentlemen overlaying videos of a ten stone baby getting teased with chocolate, an escape act gone awry and other assorted ridiculous weirdities. Here's one of the videos; taxidermied animals doing people-things. I wish this museum still existed.
