Bioshock, Civilization 4, More Added to Gamefly's Unlimited PC Play Service

By Mitchell Bowman | PC News | Apr 18, 2012 12:51 PM | Comment

Gamefly's "Unlimited PC Play" service just got a lot more interesting, thanks to the addition of some of 2K Games' older triple-A titles. In what appears to be a move to build hype for recent and upcoming sequels, 2K Games has licensed Bioshock, Civilization 4, and X-Com: Enforcer to Gamefly. Read More »

GPU Fight! Nvidia Teases Counter Punch

By Mike Sharkey | PC News | Apr 18, 2012 12:51 PM | Comment

Nvidia's response to AMD's Radeon HD 7970 was the equally powerful, but $50 cheaper GTX 680. AMD's "Oh yeah?" counter came yesterday in the form of a $70 price cut on the HD 7970, bringing it down to $479 -- roughly $20 cheaper than the GTX 680. A day later, Nvidia is pushing back with "it." We don't know exactly what it is, but Nvidia promises "it's coming." Read More »

Command Lines: Quick-Loading Kills Strategy Games

By Rob Zacny | PC Articles | Apr 18, 2012 12:30 PM | Comment

A couple weeks ago, as I was moderating a panel on the future of strategy gaming at PAX East, one audience member asked why so many strategy games have a problem with endgames. Namely, why has the player usually won the game long before it ends?

"I have a question for the questioner," I said, after everyone had weighed in. "Do you reload when things go wrong?" Read More »

Free-to-play shooter Battlefield Heroes is getting a bunch of new content today, all of it space-themed. Players will now be able to don a space suit and head to the moon, continuing their cartoonish antics amongst lunar craters and crashed rocket ships.

Delaying Death: Darksiders 2 Bumped to August

By Mike Sharkey | PC News | Apr 18, 2012 7:57 AM | Comment

There's a joke here somewhere about Death and taxes, but my frontal lobe is being a curmudgeon this morning. I'll see if I can get it up and running with a liberal dose of caffeine. In the meantime, here's the straight news: Darksiders 2 has been bumped from its original June 26 release date to sometime in August. Read More »

Diablo 3 Alert: Free Starter Edition Leaks

By Mike Sharkey | PC News | Apr 18, 2012 5:38 AM | Comment

If you've been hankering to return to Sanctuary and pop demonic loot balloons, today could be your lucky day. Posters on the official Diablo 3 forums found they could download and play the unannounced Diablo 3 Starter Edition early this morning (without beta codes). The unexpected kill-loot-level-equip-repeat high was short lived, though, because Blizzard hastily closed Battle.net for maintenance at roughly 8:45 a.m. EST. But there are two nuggets to glean from this blip: 1) all signs indicate there will be a free Starter Edition of Diablo 3, and 2) Blizzard could be preparing to open it to all for public testing, perhaps as soon as today.

Super Monday Night Combat Now Accidentally On Purpose in Open Beta

By Dan Stapleton | PC News | Apr 17, 2012 7:06 PM | Comment

Uber Entertainment didn't mean to launch the open beta for Super Monday Night Combat on a Tuesday. Don't be ridiculous -- that doesn't even make sense. No, they meant to launch it on Wednesday. But due to some silliness with Valve, you can grab it right now -- and you probably should, if only just to check out the scene. It may look like a typical Team Fortress 2-style shooter (which wouldn't exactly be a bad thing), but it's got just as much in common with League of Legends. And yeah, free. Know what? We're doing the next Free Agent on it, I've just decided. So if you don't have time to risk on an untested game, check back Friday to see what we think. Read More »
