Enjoy Battlefield 3 without Origin or Battlelog using your browser

I’ve said it before and will say it again; it was a really bad move to force both Origin and Battlelog in order to enjoy Battlefield 3. And as you’d expect, the PC gaming community has come up with some ways to override these obstacles. Well… sort of as the way to override Origin is illegal. Still, PC gamers have that option and it’s quite disturbing that we have to rely on crackers – yeah that’s right. We are now relying on crackers to fix our games – to simply enjoy the games we bought. Oh, the horror. Continue reading Enjoy Battlefield 3 without Origin or Battlelog using your browser

The giant Japanese company is offering the PC version of Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record through EA’s digital distribution service. And their price you ask?

And another one bites the dust: NFS: The Run is locked at 30fps

I seriously don’t understand developers these days. After Rockstar’s adventure game, here comes another one that is locked at 30fps. And get this right; this is a racing game. Yeap, Electronic Arts’ and Black Box’s highly anticipated Need For Speed: The Run is locked at 30fps. L.A. Noire can get away with this limit as it’s a slow paced adventure game but what were Black Box thinking? This is simply unacceptable. Continue reading And another one bites the dust: NFS: The Run is locked at 30fps

Battlefield 3 vs Modern Warfare 3 Graphics Comparison

YouTube user ‘RiseDarthVader’ posted a great comparison between Battlefield 3 and Modern Warfare 3. Both of these games are running with max details at 1080p and we can clearly notice that Modern Warfare 2 features better scripted-events. In addition, although both of them feature scripted destruction, Modern Warfare 3 has more ‘in-your-face’ destruction that – ironically – looks better than BF3’s Frostbite 2.0 effects. On the other hand, the lighting is way better in BF3, as well as the general image quality. Enjoy the comparison after the jump!

Battlefield 3 – This is how flashlight will look like after the upcoming update

One of the most annoying things in Battlefield 3 is definitely the flashlight effect, an annoying and unrealistic effect that DICE has added. After a lot of complains, the company has promised to tweak it and today, the Core Gameplay Designer on Battlefield 3, Alan Kertz, released a comparison between the default flashlight the tweaked one that will be featured on the upcoming update of Battlefield 3. The default flashlight is on the left, whereas the tweaked one is on the right. No release date has been announced for Battlefield 3’s next patch, so stay tuned for more. Enjoy!

Bioware and EA send NeoGAF a Cease and Desist notice over Mass Effect 3 Spoilers

Earlier today, we found out that some internal story files for Mass Effect 3 have been leaked. Those who read those spoilers already know how Bioware’s upcoming action/RPG game ends, who lives and who dies.

Battlefield 3 – Operation Douchebag

Now this is just epic. YouTube user ‘birgirpall’ uploaded a new, hilarious video, of Battlefield 3. Each and every kill in this video is simply beyond words and shows how unpredictable BF3 can actually get. On the other hand, I bet that those who were killed in this video were not amuzed. Well, it’s what we say a ‘double-edged coin’. This will certainly make your day, so go ahead and watch it. Trust us, birgirpall has a great sense of humor. Kudos also to Rage 3D’s user ‘spindoctor’ for spotting it! Continue reading Battlefield 3 – Operation Douchebag
