Game news

Filed under: — Dan @ 9:15 am

Well, it’s been a while since we’ve done a gaming round-up… it’s a slow time of year (plus the fact that PC gaming is being dominated by World of Warcraft). I had to chuckle when I saw that WoW’s chief competitor, Everquest II, is already giving away free trials in an attempt to boost subscription rates while Blizzard had to stop selling WoW for a while in order to build up enough infrastructure to handle the demand. (WoW is still in the top 10 on PC gaming sales charts as recently as last week.)

Anyway, those of you who are not MMORPG-inclined (and you know who you are) can check out the following:

Half-Life 2 demo (ok, who am I kidding - if you’re interested enough to download the demo, then you probably already own this game)
Prince of Persia: Warrior Within demo (if you didn’t catch it on a console)
The Punisher demo (yes, it has the triple-curse of being a comic book license AND a movie license AND the movie was awful, but I hear it’s pretty entertaining anyway)

In sadder news, it seems like the Windows versions of both Ghost Recon 2 and Rainbow Six: Lockdown have been indefinitely delayed (although online retailers at least have a June release date for GR2). Where’s the PC love, Red Storm/Ubisoft?

Also note that for those of us who are fortunate enough to have ATI video cards, there are new Catalyst drivers.

    Thanks for the heads up… I might have to check the PoP demo out. The Xbox demo didn’t do much for me for some reason, but I should probably give it another shot anyway.

    I imagine this game controls better on Xbox though.
