God of War 3- Epic new images revealed

*www.gamersmint.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/14.jpg

We got a rather astonishing email this morning, with a user calling himself El Dorado(Spain?) mailing us these fresh new screens of God of War 3. It seems they have been taken from a magazine as the images looks like to have been scanned but who cares, they are as epic as any other new God of War 3 content.

^ There are two great things there.. First, both ps3 and x360 versions have the same price tag. And considering that it has Multiplayer, the price of 699 for PC is very attractive. Nice share.

But the Images are leaked quite a time ago. Sony post phoned the release of trailer because the screenies got leaked.

UBISOFT introduces it's new DRM with ACII

Digital Rights Management (DRM) is little more than a war between games publishers and their customers. The latest entrant into said war is Ubisoft, which has announced a new digital rights scheme for most upcoming PC games it publishes: Players must be connected to the internet at all times during play, or they'll be kicked off their game. Call it a thank you for your continued, paid custom.

From the publishing giant's point of view, which has recently released Assassin's Creed II and is set to release Splinter Cell: Conviction later this year, it makes some kind of sense -- if games are being authenticated by its servers on a regular basis, Ubisoft can ensure all users are playing legitimate copies of their games.

But for the gamer, it has far more limitations than advantages. For example, the scheme makes your game absolutely useless if your internet gets cut. While no 21st century PC gamer would be caught dead offline, there are plenty of gamers who take their games on the road with laptops and netbooks. Plus, if your internet goes down for maintenance, look forward to a grim reminder that you don't actually own the game, but you're just renting it from Ubisoft: The game will pause until internet connectivity is restored.

Forget browsing the pre-owned shelves at Gamestation or heading online to eBay, you also won't be able to sell your game, because each copy has a single license, and that license is registered against your name. The potential loophole of selling your entire account isn't recommended by Ubisoft either, which say "your account features your personal data and cannot be given or sold to anyone."

As a miniscule plus point, players won't need the game's DVD in their computer (which has previously been used as an authentication method, but hackers typically get around it with a "no-cd patch"). Also, Ubisoft notes "saved games are also synchronised online so the user can continue playing from where they left off from any computer; at work, at a friend's place etc."

Wired contacted Ubisoft to ask what it thought its customers would think to its new DRM strategy. "We know that PC players are passionate about this subject and [we] expected to see this kind of reaction," Murray Pannell, the company's UK marketing director, told us via email.

"We truly feel that players will appreciate the advantages offered by the system -- advantages that were built based on their feedback -- and expect that they will understand that as a business we are making every effort to strike a balance between protecting our products and pleasing our customers with great games."

Almost any new DRM scheme that limits gamers is bound to receive mass online controversy. Electronic Arts drew the ire of PC gamers in 2008 when they announced that Spore could only be installed on five computers (which was upped from three after a fiery online backlash). The game went on to become the most pirated computer game of the year.

Electronic Arts is planning on using a similar system for the upcoming Command and Conquer 4, but there are rumours that an offline single-player only version will be available. Wired has approached EA for comment, but has not yet heard back.

DRM has become a thorn in the side of any PC gamer as copy protection has moved from a simple CD key to all manner of intrusive and annoying authentication processes. With no obvious solution, and as no game has ever evaded piracy, this will certainly not be the last we hear of digital right solutions.

Assassin's Creed II, which will be released on PC on 5 March, 2010, will be the first Ubisoft game to feature the new DRM, Ubisoft confirmed to Wired.

The most hottest news for all you GTA fans out there!

Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City Coming to PC!!

We are happy to announce the much anticipated release of Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City for Games for Windows® - LIVE on March 30, 2010. For the first time, Games for Windows - LIVE players will have the opportunity to experience the last two thrilling chapters of the Grand Theft Auto IV saga.

The two action packed episodes will also be available for download on Games for Windows® LIVE on March 30, 2010. Each episode boasts the same detailed and immersive Liberty City we all know and love. Games for Windows - LIVE players can enjoy 32-player multiplayer matches and an advanced video editor, and all fans will have the chance to once again listen to the dulcet tones of Liberty City Radio.

The Lost and Damned is a dark trip through Liberty City’s seedy underbelly as outlaw biker, Johnny Klebitz, fights to keep his gang together as a rift in the gang’s leadership threatens to tear the brotherhood apart. In The Ballad of Gay Tony, players explore Liberty City’s high-end nightlife as Luis Lopez, struggling to balance the temptations of money and vice against loyalties to family and friends. Both episodes feature a slew of new vehicles and weapons, and each episode adds new activities including cage fighting, gang wars and BASE jumping.

-From Rockstar Games' website.

I guess RDR too will come to the PC. Love ye, R*!! Awesome!

Gamersmint Review: Dark Void

I knew there was going to be some flying involved the moment Air Tight Games was announced as the developer for Dark Void. Being the team behind the acclaimed Crimson Skies series, it was no wonder why Capcom had faith in them. However, while containing some interesting ideas, Dark Void falls flat on its promise. This rocket thruster just ran out of fuel. Mayday Mayday Mayday…

Review: Darksiders
Darksiders isn’t a very original game. Take, for example, the Zelda-like dungeons and equipment, the God of War style finishers, the Soul Reaver-like wings, or the most blatant example a Portal gun that creates, well, portals… I could go on. But that’s really not the point of this review.

it is obvious with any PS3 game. Installation is mandat these days. But the god of war back cover says it require only 5MB of hard disk space.Recently bayonetta camup with something similar but it was not a success. We have to see how the god of war 3 works out without a installation.
