Square Enix apologizes to Gamestop… wait, what?

Wow. Now this is shocking to say the least. Yesterday it was confirmed that Gamestop was opening Deus Ex: Human Revolution’s PC cases to remove the free OnLive pass that was included.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution Hotfix Released; Easter egg at the game’s end credits

According to the game’s Steam page, an issue was found that caused some users to be unable to start the game on specific machines. Specifically, the presence of older ATI/AMD drivers, also on machines with NVidia hardware, would cause the game to crash on startup. This patch is a hot-fix for that particular issue. On top of this, it also increases the number of save-slots from 20, like on the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions, to 99. As with most patches, it will be auto-downloaded next time you start the Steam client. Continue reading Deus Ex: Human Revolution Hotfix Released; Easter egg at the game’s end credits

Tomb Raider will only use QTE’s to deliver an intense and cinematic experience but won’t be overused

Let’s be honest, even though Tomb Raider was one of the best games at Microsoft’s Conference in this year’s E3, those damn quick-time events worried us. Yeah, they added to the atmosphere but we want to play a game and not watch a movie. Was the game following Heavy Rain’s example? Apparently not, as Noah Hughes, creative director, stated that Tomb Raider won’t rely much on QTE’s. Continue reading Tomb Raider will only use QTE’s to deliver an intense and cinematic experience but won’t be overused
