Far Cry 2 - Exclusive Jackal Trailer 0

farcry21 Far Cry 2 - Exclusive Jackal Trailer

Another exclusive trailer here, this time in turn for Far Cry 2. First thing I thought was ‘why the hell are they playing Black Hawk Down music for this trailer…?’ but my opinion changed quickly as the trailer nearing the end turned into an explosive bloodbath. In a good way. And, as Kotaku say… ‘thank God they’re shooting at white people‘. Clip after the jump…

Randy Orton: “I want more violence!” 0

orton Randy Orton: I want more violence!

WWE superstar, Randy Orton has told Eurogamer that he want’s to see more violence in video games…

Violence sells. I want to see more violence in games - the more blood the better,” he told us. Orton argued that videogames were the least of parents’ worries, when some “don’t know their kids are watching South Park.

So, you’ve got a pumped up wrestler shouting about there should be more violence, when you’ve also got cab drivers moaning that Grand Theft Auto IV should be banned… honestly, you’ll never win.

The violence [in Goodfellas] is against human beings. There’s rape in movies - you see all kinds of f***ed up s*** on film.

[sarcasm] What a nice example to go by. [/sarcasm]

Master Chief to make cameo in Fable 2 Collectors Edition 0

masterchieffable Master Chief to make cameo in Fable 2 Collectors Edition

Think, what would happen if Master Chief did what Martin Lawrence did in Black Knight, imagine it, Master Chief working at a medieval amusement park, only for a Brute to knock him out and to fall in the moat, when he awakens, he finds himself in a completely random computer game for him to be in! Fable 2, a computer game with no interest from Halo fans to play Fable, yet now, with Master Chief there, Halo fans will all snap up a pre-order! And what would Master Chief’s armour look like… well, think Peter Pan meets Robin Hood… or just look at the image above, your choice.

Call of Duty 5 Co-Op Gameplay 0

 Call of Duty 5 Co-Op Gameplay

Ambush’s, Flame-throwers and annoying voice acting, what more could you want from a trailer? Call of Duty 5 (World at War for those who want to be ‘proper’) is shaping up to be quite interesting - if played on mute. Is it me or do the sound’s just get annoying?

Far Cry 2, more accessible? 0

farcry2 Far Cry 2, more accessible?

Far Cry 2 looks veeerry nice, and Ubisoft has released the specs required, minimum needed:

CPU:
Pentium 4 3.2 Ghz, Pentium D 2.66 Ghz, AMD Athlon 64 3500+ or better

Video card:
NVIDIA® 6800 or ATI®X1650 or better
Shader Model 3 required
256 Mb of graphic memory

Memory: 1 GB

Media reader: DVD-ROM

Sure, looks reasonable, yes, not everyone will have to spend shed loads to play Far Cry 2, BUT I guarantee you these luscious screenies haven’t been taken from playing on minimum spec - so who REALLY want’s to play it now…

farcry2notsogood Far Cry 2, more accessible?

Yeah, that’s what I thought.
