Last month we previewed Hard Reset for the PC and found it to be a romping, stomping, carnage filled chaotic FPS with enjoyable gameplay and an engrossing environment. It combines all of the best bits of classic shoot 'em' ups and sets it in a Blade Runner/Cyber Punk 2020 style universe. This coupled with between level cut scenes reminiscent of a Frank Miller comic made the game stylish and engaging throughout.

I've been an on and off fan of the Ratchet & Clank games ever since the PlayStation 2 days, but have always fallen short of really getting stuck into what the games have to offer. I've casually played some single player and co-op on many of the titles from the franchise on PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3, from what I did play I know the games were pretty good too, but as I said, I never really got hooked on them.

In short, Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 is worth buying. It offers some great battle sections and a good level of quality which many games lack but at the same time it could have been so much more. Today we take a look at what isn't great in Black Ops 2...

Antietam . . . Little Big Horn . . . Pompeii, these are certainly some of humanity’s “Darkest of Days”. When time travel is first invented by a company called KronoteK, research teams are sent back to further document these events. While there, they discover individuals that are dying that were never meant to (how they know this is explained in the game). KronoteK does not know why, but it’s evident that history has been tampered with, and they set out to change history back to the way it was meant to be. You, as the player, are tasked with finding these individuals, saving them, and trying to set History right.

Mit Armed Assault 2 (oder neu: ArmA II) schicken sich die Militärsimulationsexperten von Bohemia Interactive an, neue Erfolge im Genre zu feiern. Dabei können die Macher zumindest mit Operation Flashpoint, aber auch mit dem kontrovers diskutierten Armed Assault (1) auf jede Menge Erfahrung zurückgreifen. ComputerBase klärt, ob das Vorhaben geglückt ist.

Medal of Honor geht mit der Unreal Engine 3 ins Rennen und entsprechend wenig überraschend sind die Ergebnisse, die der Benchmark-Parcours von PC Games Hardware zu Tage gefördert hat. Doch sehen Sie selbst in unserem Praxis-Test mit zehn Grafikkarten und drei Settings.

Im Battle.net-Forum zu StarCraft 2 steht es unter Known Issues und wurde scheinbar aus der Beta mitgenommen. Ein Problem, durch das es dazu kommen soll, dass Grafikkarten überhitzen, wenn auf dem Bildschirm nichts los ist. Die Grafikkarte würde also durch Unterforderung überhitzen, sehr ungewöhnlich.
Wir haben das Problem untersucht und konnten auch Hitzeprobleme feststellen - allerdings in gegenteiligen Szenarios!

2008 has seen a very strong showing on the Playstation network and recently Crash Commando was released - a simple game which turns out to be a fiendishly addictive online romp.

Also to assist with soloing content, you gain companions very early in the game. These companions are NPC characters that basically you can control with a hot bar. In general they just beat on an enemy (DPS), take damage and maintain the enemy attention (tank) or just heal you (healer) as the fights go on. This in many ways introduces people new to the genre some of the now very established mechanics. Instead of learning what tank, dps and healers do in guilds or human groups that could lead to frustration, you have an NPC character to help you out. At the lower levels you can even solo some of the group content with them.
There is a lot to like about SWTOR already with group content. At level 10 you are introduced to the game's first flashpoint which is like a story based small operation filled with cut scenes and options to select what to say to the NPC next. The game has a 'roll' system where players are chosen randomly as to whose selection will actually be said to the NPC, and this can affect the flashpoint later on. Every five or so levels you gain access to a new flashpoint (you can access them earlier, and get wasted by enemies if you really like) and these break up the sometimes monotonous task of questing very well.
