One of Mass Effect 3's lead writers has promised the game will deliver a deeper, more emotionally-compelling storyline, particularly when it comes to its lead character, Shepard. Speaking to BioWare's own promotional news service, Mac Walters said the writing team had been doubled since the release of the original Mass Effect, meaning writers now had more time to focus on making Shepard a more realistic character.

Like it or hate it, free-to-play revenue schemes seem to represent the future of MMORPGs (unless the game happens to have the words "Star Wars" somewhere in its title). The latest MMO to jump on the "free" bandwagon is Gods & Heroes: Rome Rising, which has just reduced its initial start-up cost, and scrapped subscription fees, in an effort to attract players before its full transformation into F2P sometime soon.

The so-called "Ver. 2012" update for Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition was released for consoles last month, but PC fighting fans (yes... they do actually exist) were left with the original, untweeked build. But not for much longer! Developer Capcom says it has been "cracking the whip" on its poor programmers, and expects the PC patch to be ready in late February. Read More »
It's a slow news day... and it's a Sunday to boot... so why don't we just forget the constant stream of news updates for a little while, and instead watch 20 minutes of the Tribes: Ascend beta. Sound like a good idea? Of course it does, because this free-to-play FPS is looking like one of the standout PC shooters of 2012. Read More »
First Battlefield 3, now Mass Effect 3. BioWare has confirmed that PC players of Mass Effect 3 will need to access the game via Origin, the digital distribution service owned by publisher Electronic Arts. What's more, BioWare has also confirmed that ME3 will not be available on Steam... meaning players who want to purchase a digital copy of the game will probably end up going through Origin as well.

The upcoming military RTS game, Wargame: European Escalation, looks mind-bogglingly massive. Maps can be as large as 150 square kilometers and can feature up to 100 million scenery objects (which is quite a few pine trees and picket fences). Moreover, there are 361 unique units for players to command, including troops, tanks, aircraft and artillery. You can check out a mere handful of these units in a new trailer after the jump...

The South Korean ratings board has been brooding over whether to ban Diablo III for more than a month now. The issue is not Diablo III per se, but the game's "auction house" feature, which enables players to sell in-game loot for real-world money. Some in the Korean government had argued this feature was akin to gambling. Well, Korean Diablo fans can rejoice, because the game has been passed for release... minus the auction house. Read More »
Earlier this week GameSpy pleaded with readers to sign an online petition asking publisher Namco Bandai to consider releasing its excellent action-RPG Dark Souls for the PC. Well, good news! It seems someone over at Namco HQ in Tokyo has noticed the groundswell of internet support, because an administrator has told the official forums that the company has been overwhelmed by the response.

We here at GameSpy love our PC games, but that doesn't mean we turn aside the chance to play some classic 8-bit videogames like Double Dragon, Mega Man, and Contra from yesteryear. Roger Barr and a handful of other programmers -- affectionately known as Team Bobo -- remember these glory days as well and have worked hard to create their 8-bit homage videogame known as Abobo's Big Adventure, and released it for free earlier this week.

Call it the SWTOR Effect. Less than a month after the official launch of BioWare's massively multiplayer Star Wars game, Trion Worlds is slashing prices on its own MMO subscription plans: a year in Rift will now cost you $99 -- that's $8.25 per month. Read More »
So there I was, minding my own business, when I looked out my office window and saw the damn Space Shuttle taking off down the block. Hasn't El Presidente learned what a blast zone is? Who had the bright idea of building this thing downtown anyway? Read More »
By now, you've no doubt heard of Razer's upcoming "Project Fiona," which promises to fill the missing link between a PC gaming laptop and an iPad. Project Fiona looks like an LCD monitor with two Playstation Move controllers bolted to the side of it, and represents longtime peripheral manufacturer Razer's ambitious attempt to create a truly gaming-capable tablet. I was lucky enough to get my hands on it ever so briefly during CES 2012 in Las Vegas, and frankly my experience left me with more questions than answers. Read More »
Hey, how it's going Choplifter? Oh, it's Choplifter HD now, I see. Honestly, I didn't expect to see you at this remake party, but I'm happy you're here -- there are a lot of games I'd like to avoid at this get-together. You haven't changed a bit! I'm glad to see you're still the same old side-scrolling, hostage-rescuing, enemy fire-dodging helicopter under all those flashy new 3D graphics. Good old Choplifter! Gotta love ya, even though sometimes you're such a difficult jerk you make me want to throw my monitor through a window. Read More »

Log on to continue building the pixelated block city of your dreams today, and you'll find a handful of new features.
