Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Stimulus Package

posted in NEWS | 5 Comments

Last evening i was surfing the Steam Store site, then i decided to look at the top sellers.. What i saw really gave me to think, the top seller was Cod 6 Stimulus Package (13,99€).

So what is exactly this stimulus package, a manual to have a better discharge at the toilet?
According to what i read on the internet, it is a 5 map pack (2 of which are already be seen in cod 5), WHAT? 14 euro for 5 maps!! This means that a lot of people bought this..
Wow this is really a sign of times.. The gamers who bought this, must really like the game, but come on how is it possible? They are just 5 maps! It s like if someone spit on you and you tell him thanks and pay too! I am really happy to have not bought this game (mw2) i find this Stimulus package a living insult for 14 bucks, BUT Activision was right! They sold a lot of this, they made thousands of dollars with a 5 map pack!! Can you believe it? Personally i wouldn’t have, if i hadn’t saw it tonite on the top sellers in steam store..

Dawn of War II: Chaos Rising

posted in NEWS, VIDEO | Leave a Comment

The first data-disk of dow2 is almost here, this is a thing all the dow 2 fans already well know..
Those who won’t buy the expansion will get a new unit, a big patch and some maps.
Those who will buy the expansion will get:
-Chaos Army
-A new (useless?) single player campaign

At the actual price (30 euro) i am not going to buy this, it s just not enough for me to justify the buying, i am not a big fan of Chaos Marines, plus is still a 3 vs 3 with just the adiction of f4all mode.
In addiction i found the single player campaign (dow 2) terribly boring.
I don t wanna bash THQ or Relic at all, in fact i am glad they make wh40k rts game, but to me Dow 2 is bad designed since the beginning.. so i hope they will bypass Company of Heroes 2 and will start to work on Dow 3 as soon as possible 😆

World of Battles is a free-to-play massively multiplayer online real-time wargame in a fantasy setting where up to eight armies, each one made up of as many as 16 units (with each unit featuring up to 30 individual soldiers!), clash in exciting player-versus-player battles.

Legends of Zork (Browser)

The legendary adventure returns to your browser.

“The Great Underground Empire has recently fallen and the land is in disarray. The stock market has collapsed, leading even mighty FrobozzCo International to fire employees from throughout its subsidiaries. A craze of treasure-hunting has swept through the remnants of the Great Underground Empire. It’s a dangerous time to be a newly-unemployed traveling salesman, but it’s also a great time to try a bit of adventuring.”

Legends of Zork will provide online gamers with a persistent online adventure, playable from any Internet browser. Players take up the role of a recently laid-off salesman and part-time loot-gatherer, as he explores the Great Underground Empire. Designed to provide gamers with a casual MMO game they can play on their laptop, desktop or Apple iPhone (in school, work or on the bus), there’s nothing to download.
