]]> 09 Aug 2007 03:51:48 WarScathed is a new FPS game being developed by Grizzly Productions. Its the year 2200, and World War IV has broken out. The Russian Revolution has started again.

]]> 08 Jun 2007 12:19:16 War is everywhere in Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning (WAR), the new MMORPG from the creators of Dark Age of Camelot. Based on Games Workshop's popular Warhammer fantasy war game, WAR features next generation Realm vs. Realm (RvR) game play that will immerse players in a world of perpetual conflict.

Upon entering WAR, players must determine their allegiance and join an Army. Those inclined towards the side of good may fight for the Armies of Order as an obstinate Dwarf, noble High Elf, or loyal human soldier of the Empire. Those inclined towards darker deeds may side with the sinister Armies of Destruction as a savage Greenskin (Orc or Goblin), corrupt Dark Elf, or marauding human worshipper of Chaos.

RvR combat takes place on three fronts where ancient foes wage an unending war Dwarfs vs. Greenskins, High Elf vs. Dark Elf, and Empire vs. Chaos. Players begin the game fighting their ancestral enemy, but are free to journey to other fronts to help their allies in their ongoing struggles.

The ultimate goal in RvR combat is the sacking of an enemy's capital city. To do this, an army must invade and take control of the opposition's homeland. Deciding battles take place on objective-based battlefields and in instanced scenarios - point-balanced battles that make use of NPC mercenaries known as Dogs of War.

For the first time, WAR's RvR system integrates both Player vs. Player (PvP) combat and Player vs. Environment (PvE) quests on the same map. Every aspect of the game, including PvE missions, is geared towards the greater war in some important way. However, players are not required to participate in PvP combat, and may aid in the RvR war effort and enjoy the game in its entirety via PvE content.

Drawing from a quarter century of highly detailed source material, Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning will bring Games Workshop's fantasy world to life in a way that will allow players to create characters destined for great deeds and glory on the field of battle.

]]> 02 Jun 2007 02:08:33 Will you be an evil or benevolent deity?

That's the choice you must make upon returning to a warring land in Black & White 2. Like its wildly successful predecessor, Black & White, the sequel is all about moral choices.

The land, however, has transformed itself. The inhabitants of this breathtaking 3D world have lost their innocence and developed new weapons and technology. As you enter this warring world, will you make tribes coexist peacefully; encouraging villages and towns to grow into sprawling metropolises, or prompt them to inflict their will upon others by, creating and commanding large armies that seek to dominate and conquer?

Creatures in the game have grown too. They can learn strategies, master new abilities and skills, lead armies into battle and be your ultimate unit. Black & White 2 includes other new elements, such as improved graphics and miracle effects such as rivers of fire and earthquakes that yield massive destruction.

Every choice you make will have an impact. Each action and inactions prompts obvious changes to buildings, flora and fauna, all morphing to reflect your personality.

]]> 08 May 2007 07:57:46 I made this game in 2005 as just a little thing to do in between projects, and it's spread to just about everywhere on the internet that has games and is my most popular game by far.

It takes all the elements in common strategy game and distills them down to their core: competing for territory and having battles. However, in this game, once a tile is placed, it can no longer be moved, only captured, so unlike most strategy games, a game of Proximity is usually over in about 10 minutes. Also, since the rules are pretty simple, it appeals to a lot of people who aren't normally into the big, unwieldly, and complex strategy games out there.

I'm currently working on a sequel, as well as looking for ways to get the game onto consoles, and hopefully a board game version eventually.

Keep in mind that you have until the start of the next sortie to try and kill the troops on the ground, using the gravity-bound shells or dropping burning wreckage on them.

]]> 27 Feb 2007 07:36:58 Background:
Bet On Soldier: Blood Sport is a first-person shooter developed by French developer Kylotonn, and published in the North American and UK market by Digital Jesters.

The game is a spiritual sequel to the alternative history first-person shooter Iron Storm. Although it is not explicitly stated that the games take place in the same fictional universe, they share many of the same themes, plot elements, character and level designs, and weapons. Many members of Kylotonn previously worked on the team that made Iron Storm.

The story revolves around an unknown world war where elite soldiers, when they meet, battle to the death in one-on-one deathmatches. These deathmatches are broadcast all over the world as a televised sport named "Bet On Soldier", and since has become the favorite form of entertainment with many viewers betting on soldiers. The tagline in the introduction is "In the future, war has purpose. Soldiers fight in the name of... Entertainment.

Setting:
Bet on Soldier is set on an alternate Earth in the year 1998, during a war that has lasted for 80 years and shows no signs of ever stopping. Every aspect of society revolves around warfare. Everyone earns their income through war; all men are paid soldiers, and women and the elderly work in the weapons manufacturing industry. The world is in a perpetual state of war between two competing power blocs, the Western WRF and the Asian VAN. The populace seeks solace from this grim world mainly through escapist television entertainment, with the most popular programming being "Bet On Soldier", in which elite soldiers face off against each other in one-on-one deathmatches, and where viewers can wager on the outcome of the fights.

Gameplay and Plot:
The player takes on the role of an unknown mercenary who enters the Bet on Soldier tornament in order to hunt down the people responsible for the murder of his wife.

Bet On Soldier differs from traditional first-person shooters as the player must select equipment before entering combat (much like Counter-Strike) and will be using that equipment throughout the mission. The player cannot change their inventory during a mission, or pick up weapons or ammo that either allies or enemies have dropped. In order to acquire more ammo or replenish their supply of armor, the player must spend money at various "purchase terminals" located throughout the levels. Money is earned by killing enemies, with more spectacular kills (i.e. headshots or deaths caused by exploding barrels) earning more cash.

The player can also hire up to two A.I.-controlled mercenaries that follow them throughout the level and assist them in combat. These mercenaries can be issued basic orders, such as to wait at a certain location or to follow the player.

At certain points in each level, the player is pitted in a one-on-one deathmatch against an enemy B.O.S. champion. The amount of money the player earns from these fights depends on how quickly they can kill their opponent.

]]> 16 Feb 2007 04:00:54 Danger from the Deep is a World War II german submarine simulator. The goal is to make a simulation game with strong emphasis on strategy and realism, that never the less is interesting to play.

]]> 13 Feb 2007 08:08:23 Chromehounds is the first ever mech combat sim for the Xbox360. Chomehounds places you in command of a futuristic fighting machine that is totally customizeable by its pilot, you.

From beginning your first mission in a non-descript training hound to waging war in Chromehound's ever evolving online world, you are in total control of your destiny. You have the ability to create any type of hound you wish. Do you become a run-and-gun pilot? Do you load your trusty sniper rifle and lie in wait? Want to just scout the area with no weapons? Go ahead! Chromehounds allows you to create whatever hound you prefer and play it to its fullest potential; the only limit is your skill.

Departing from the cookie cutter mech style is where Chromehounds takes its greatest achievements. As you build your own hound, you are guided with an abundance of information concerning weight, power, speed, etc... All this must balance in the end.

Gameplay consist of singleplayer and multiplayer. The singleplayer campaign allows you to follow one track (sniper, soldier, heavy gunner, scout, defender, and commander) through the entire game or mix and match, all the while allowing you to return to the previous track to complete all aspect of the game.

The multiplayer portion is extremely open and playable by a solo pilot, but is primarily designed with squads in mind. Get a group of pilots together (up to 9) and use the squad lobby to discuss ideas for hound builds or talk tactics. Your squad mates can even guide you through building a hound from the lobby while you are in the "garage."

Chromehounds is enjoyable in a solo campaign and using Xbox Live.

]]> 24 Jan 2007 03:52:39 Team warfare on a worm scale

Description:
Worms: Armageddon is a turn based strategy game in a 2d environment. There is a single player campaign, and training missions to complete; but the main attraction is playing against other people locally or over the internet. Games can be played with 2 or more people. The graphics and sound are very cartoonish, and entertaining.

Gameplay:
Each player starts with a number of worms on their team. Each worm has a fixed amount of health. If a worm runs out of health, it will die. Once you run out of worms, you lose the match. The game is turn based, so each team gets control of one worm during their turn. You have a limited amount of time to select one of many weapons and inflict damage on another teams worm. There are also other more subtle tools to choose from for more strategic play, such as terrain digging tools, girder construction, and ropes and other means to get around the map. Weapons vary from the ordinary guns and explosives, to odd things like exploding sheep, mad cows, and homing pigeons.

There are several other popular gameplay types, with specific rules for play.

Finding online games is easy when you log onto WormNet. It's an irc-like chat interface where you can host or join games.
