]]> 08 Jun 2007 06:22:54 Postal 2 Notice: Not suitable for children

It's always funny until someone gets hurt... and then it's absolutely friggin' hysterical!

In the second game of the series, you are "the dude", living in a shabby trailer on the edge of the town of Paradise with a significant other whose nagging is just one of the many reasons you might just go over the edge.

Each day you leave home with a list of chores, and day one finds you heading to the office to pick up your check, but a pink slip awaits, as the game continues to urge you to cross the line.

Unlike the 1997 Postal however, in this game you can choose not to let things push you over the edge, instead following a pacifistic route, though you are certain to witness mass carnage either way.


Additional Game Features:

  • Walk a week in the Postal Dude's shoes.

  • Freely explore full 3-D open-ended environments.

  • Interact with over 100 unique NPC's including Gary Coleman, marching bands, dogs, cats and elephants, protesters, policemen and civilians, with or without weapons.

  • Accessible map of town shows all main locations.

  • HUD displays current weapon and available ammo, inventory button displaying current selected item, and health status.

  • Arsenal includes a pistol, shotgun, fully automatic rifle, gasoline can, Molotov cocktails, frag grenades, rockets and more.

  • POSTAL 2 is all about choice; experiment with everyone and everything.

  • Originally a complete single player game, various multiplayer modes were later added in the "Share the Pain" edition.

  • Powered by the Unreal 2.0 engine.

  • The "1337" patch reduced long load times, and added levels, such as "Tora Bora Cave" where the dude comes across Osama Bin Laden in the course of his search for weapons of mass destruction.

]]> 21 Dec 2006 12:16:09 Tron 2.0 Twenty years have passed since Kevin Flynn defeated the MCP with the help of his Tron program. In doing so, he also destroyed the technology he'd used to digitize himself. He's long since left ENCOM in the hands of Alan Bradley, who is raising a family of his own.

Now ruthless global corporate powers want to send humans into the digital realm once more in order to control world finances, and only Alan knows the answer to perfecting their faulty code. Alan encrypted his secrets in time to prevent their theft, but now he's been kidnapped, and the search for the code is on.

You enter the fray as Jet Bradley, Alan's brilliant but rebellious son, who finds himself enlisted by Ma3a to fight the now viral corporate security officer within the digital realm and prevent global domination.

The Tron series of games are based upon the 1982 Walt Disney movie of the same name, beginning with a Tron arcade game and arcade sequel. Tron 2.0 is the first game of the series to be produced for the PC, and subsequently was released for Mac. A related title, "Tron 2: Killer App" was later released for the Xbox, but with significantly altered content.

Additional Game Features:

  • Single player campaign entirely in the digital realm (excepting some cutscenes) immersing you into story-driven, first-person action.

  • As Jet Bradley you will combat digital opponents using guns, rods, grenades, missiles, and the iconic TRON disc, gaining abilities and new weapons as you overcome various challenges to go deeper into the system.

  • Defrag and disinfect your inventory or live with the unpleasant consequences (You're in a computer after all!)

  • Intense action, intense and deadly battles, and the trademark high-speed light cycle races, featuring a new light cycle design by Syd Mead, who developed the cycles for the original film.

  • Musical score by Wendy Carlos, the composer of the original Tron film score.

  • Vocal performers include Bruce Boxleitner, Rebecca Romijn, Ken Boynton, Cindy Morgan and many more, and featuring Jason Cottle as the voice of Jet Bradley.

  • Multiplayer includes some campaign scenarios and light cycle mode.

  • Rendered with the Lithtech Triton engine (specially enhanced version of their Jupiter engine)

]]> 01 Jan 2007 11:33:32 Maelstrom You pilot your ship through the dreaded "Maelstrom" asteroid belt -- suddenly your best friend thrusts towards you and fires, directly at your cockpit. You raise your shields just in time, and the battle is joined.

The deadliest stretch of space known to mankind has just gotten deadlier. Everywhere massive asteroids jostle for a chance to crush your ship, and deadly shinobi fighter patrols pursue you across the asteroid belt. But the deadliest of them all is your sister ship, assigned to you on patrol. The pilot, trained by your own Navy, battle hardened by months in the Maelstrom, is equipped with a twin of your own ship and intimate knowledge of your tactics.

The lovely Stratocaster R&R facility never sounded so good, but as you fire full thrusters to dodge the latest barrage you begin to think you'll never get home...
]]> 03 Jan 2007 02:46:07 Wing Commander III Wing Commander III: Heart of the Tiger is the second sequel in the Sci-Fi Space Simulation series created by Chris Roberts.







"Professionally scripted and filmed in Hollywood, ORIGIN's multi-million dollar production combines the entertainment of film-making with the interactivity of computer gaming. The result is a spectacular spaceflight adventure.


Adrenaline, romance, danger -- Wing Commander III has all this and more. This sequel completes the turbulent chronicles of the Terran-Kilrathi war. The final showdown takes place on one of the homeworlds -- Earth or Kilrah. But only you can write the ending..."









Released in 1994, Wing Commander III was the first game to be marketed as a true "Interactive Movie". It was received with much critical-acclaim due to its high playability, state-of-the-art in-game graphics engine plus well scripted, produced and acted FMV sequences, all of which contributed to the games deep and absorbing atmosphere.


Wing Commander III was the first game in the series to use Full Motion Video as the primary story-telling device and is considered to be one of the best and successful examples of FMV use in a video game. The interactive element takes form during conversation cut-scenes where the player is asked to make a choice on how to proceed. This is done by either by giving a positive or negative response when prompted and this in turn affects the mood of the characters involved, altering theyre behaviour during missions and future conversations.


This was the final game in the Wing Commander series to deal with the Terran-Kilrathi conflict. As with the previous games, it is possible to play a winning or losing path, depending on the players performance during space-combat. The destruction of Earth or the Kilrathi's home planet of "Kilrah" is at the end of one of these two paths. However the series does continue with Wing Commander IV and Wing Commander: Prophecy.

]]> 20 Apr 2007 09:41:49 Orbital sniper Welcome to utopia.
The year is 2174, and you have been ordered to function as an
orbital sniper. In your world there's just three kinds of people:
VIPs, dissidents and normal citizens. VIPs run the world: they must
not come to harm. Dissidents must die. If a commoner or two gets
wasted in progress, it'll count against you when your post ends.

You were a normal citizen only moments ago. If you manage to prove
yourself and keep VIPs safe in your area, they might make you
a VIP. Or do poorly enough and they might decide that you're the
enemy.

On screen, VIPs are designated blue, threats are designated red
and the normal folk are white.

You control the target with mouse; right-drag or use mouse wheel
to zoom. Different zoom modes are useful for different things.
Zoom full out to see the whole situation at a glance (with all
that useless clutter removed), or zoom full in for better aiming.
Several levels of zoom in between give different information.

Left click fires your gun (which is based on some new physics laws
that we haven't invented yet, as the target is destroyed instantly).
The gun reloads for three seconds, so make sure you hit.

A typical game round lasts for about 4 minutes. It starts out easy,
but gets rather nasty later on.
]]> 19 Jan 2007 05:14:11 Xero In Much of the game is still in discussion. However, in it's simplest form the game is an evolution of the 'top-view shooter' genre.
