Well, that’s true for many PC games.

Primal Carnage Tearing Its Way On To Your PC On October 29

 

My, what big teeth you have!

What’s that I hear off in the distance? Is it a large garbage truck or some sort of tank rolling down the road? That deep, thunderous sound…Kinda sounds like footsteps but…NO, it can’t be. Something that heavy? It would have to be a large armored robot, wouldn’t it?

Nope, it’s a dinosaur looking for a tasty snack and he really, REALLY seems to think my face is a tasty and satisfying Ritz Crackerful. WHERE’D I PUT MY SHOTGUN?!?!

Iron Man 3 Trailer Releases, Is Crazy Dark

Oh, it’s just Iron Man. Taking a nap. In the snow.

After a 17-second pre-trailer teaser was released yesterday, for whatever stupid reason, Marvel brings us the long-anticipated reel we’ve been looking for: the first glimpse at Shane Black’s Iron Man 3.

Everquest 2 Chains Of Eternity – Beta Registration Is Underway

Moar Everquest 2? YEP!

Later, other MMORPG’s came out and started to take bits and pieces of the market away. Then Sony Online Entertainment announced Everquest II and a bunch of the people I worked with pissed themselves with giddy anticipation.
Here we are, 8 years later, and Sony Online Entertainment is about to drop its NINTH expansion.
Good lord, that’s a lot of code.
