Halo Reach Proves Killzone 2's Worth To The Xbox 360

By Nick De Bruyne

in :  Gaming

Last year, around about the time that Killzone 2 hit the world, I posted an article titled Killzone 2: The Best Thing To Happen To The Xbox 360 . While the title confused people at first, it made sense once you read it and my point was made. Many people agreed with me and I even had the honour of …

Yesterday I posted that very confusing comic up from Pfangirl which apparently is really easy to understand as long as you are a MMO player… or more specifically a WoW player. However it was quickly pointed out that we have another gaming comic in the community, J E Donaldson who posts up his stuff on his personal site TheMouseTrap.co.za Last …

Some new Alan Wake screenshots have made their way onto the Internet and while they are looking good I am not sure I am really that blown away. They look really creepy and I have a feeling they have nailed the ambience perfectly but when you look closer I am seeing quite a few jaggies and that’s never good news …

EA Still Closing Down Online Servers

By Nick De Bruyne

EA have announced that they will be closing down even more of their online servers. Almost all of the games having their servers closed down are pretty old ones that no one is really playing, well I assume that that's why is closing them. The list includes a bunch of titles such as the Godfather for PS3 and Xbox 360 as well as Mercenaries 2 for PC, Lord of the Rings: Conquest for Xbox 360 and PS3 as well as Army of Two in Asia and for PS3 only. You can see all of them here . I guess that this all makes a lot of sense, you can't keep running these servers forever, and especially not if there are only a handful of people ever using them. When are Microsoft and Activision going to be shutting down the servers for Halo 3 and Modern Warfare 2? I hear that nobody plays those games anymore.
