Finally. Ever since Crysis blew my mind with incredibly detailed textures, destructible environments and kick-ass lighting I've been dreaming of not having to tweak the settings on my PC to get the game to actually run. Crytek, developers of Far Cry and the aforementioned Crysis have just presented a tech demo to IGN for their multi-platform melting cryENGINE 3. And it's melting my face like a John Frusciante guitar solo.

You can breath a sigh of relief. I can assure you this is not just another Stormrise screenshot. What it is, however, is a look at the upcoming Wolfenstein game. ID Software has recently launched a new website that promises to wet the appetite for lovers of the series (or even just the original) with a series of "Webisodes". The reveal trailer looks pretty cool, and gives a sneak peak at Wolfenstein's pretty awesome game-play.

Just a reminder (shyeah as if you needed one right?) that this week is Stormrise week. The game premiere's this Thursday for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. Very exciting. I'm excited and you should be excited too, it's less awkward that way. As the release draws closer a few scant sites have thrown up some preview impressions and there is definitely a theme running through them. It seems many are having trouble coming to grips with an entirely new control scheme that takes some time to get used too.

Oh happy day! The original Overlord was one of the most under rated games of last year. It was just ridiculous amounts of fun. Essentially you were Sauron's replacement and it was up to you to seek out each of the heroes who had slain your predecessor and inflict horrible death on them using your army of shrieking, lunatic gremlins.

Some details of Overlord 2 have dripped through and they sound delightful.

It's not easy being a comic book fan and a game lover. The two have a tumultuous relationship at best. Put simply, the vast majoroity of games based on comic properties are crap. In fact bar Spiderman 2 (which was technically based on a movie) and The Darkness they have all been crap.

But as Bob Dylan said, the times they are a chay-ay-ay-ay-gin. Or so we hope.

Let me start out by saying that there are countless charities out there that need your money more than we do. There's cancer to be cured, children that need care and even labradors to be rescued. Aside from the many wonderful charities out there, you actually need the money more than we do. We're in uncertain economic times and my mantra is always "save save save". Got it? Good. Read on then...
