GRID


Race Driver: Grid is all about the race - that period from lights to flag; full of tension, pressure, noise, and action.

Grid will take players to beautifully realised and dramatic race locations over three continents to compete in an unprecedented variety of racing events. Packed with the most powerful race cars - new and classic, circuit and drift - players will compete to conquer the most prestigious official race tracks and championships and then go beyond to compete in challenging city-based competitions, through to road events and urban street races. In Europe, race gamers will compete on the greatest official tracks in prestige Marques including Aston Martin, Koenigsegg and Pagani. Iconic cities across the U.S. - including San Francisco, Washington DC and Detroit and each with their own atmosphere and events - play hosts to diverse street races. In the Far East, Japanese racing culture sets the tone where night races, including Drift racing, take drivers through neon illuminated cities and to outlying mountain roads.

Mercenaries 2: World In Flames


Mercenaries 2: World In Flames has openly been described by developer Pandemic as a Bruckheimer-meets-Tarantino game - a no-nonsense action blockbuster with wise-talking bad-asses talking shit against a backdrop of insane fiery destruction.While it can't be said to really be contributing to the intellectual maturity of the medium, there's always room for a big, lovable no-brains Labrador of a game to maintain equilibrium. So here we have a huge South American landscape to explore, missions you can complete any way you see fit, the most ridiculous OTT weaponry and vehicles known to humankind and an AC/DC reject who's been shot in the posterior. Mercenaries 2: World In Flames is set in a fictional Venezuela, where a crime lord/terrorist called Ramon Solano has taken over the country by military coup and, along the way, has double-crossed a trio of mercenaries who are now bent on creating violent mischief and revenge. Another main hinge is that Solano has shot the bearded merc in the arse and payback is being sought for this injustice through the destruction of his entire country. Yes, it's that sort of game. In the single-player campaign, you'll complete multi-objective missions for various clients for cash, and which factions you choose to support will influence the progression of the plot. While much of the campaign is still shrouded in secrecy, Pandemic have confirmed there'll be drop-in, drop-out co-op play for you and a friend, for Bonnie-and-Clyde-style mayhem (hopefully without their fate).However, freedom is what Mercs 2 is about - the ability to go anywhere, pick up any weapon, drive any vehicle and, importantly, destroy any building. Those nostalgic for the days of levelling an apartment block back in the days of Syndicate Wars will be trembling with anticipation as they raise the mini-nuke, direct it at a skyscraper and bring it down in a blinding fireball of destruction. Falling chunks of masonry and concrete will also aid the collapse of other buildings and smash anything in the area with the game's "crushing technology" - which is possibly the best name for a branch of technology dreamed up in computer games in the last five years. The chaos you can cause is unrestricted - you can actually reduce a major urban environment to smouldering rubble if you like - but remember that the idea of Mercenaries 2 is to make money, so anarchist leanings may have to be tempered if you want hard cash in your bank account.You'll need money to buy bigger weapons (mini-nukes aren't available at your local Tesco), and cooler vehicles, including tanks, trucks and helicopters - although you can always hijack them if you want, using Mercenaries' rather incongruous Bemani button-tapping minigames. You can also customise your vehicles with explosive toys, so if you want to beef up your luxury sports car with a rooftop rocket launcher, as well as that leopard skin seat-cover, you can.


The original Mercenaries was a console-only game, but the sequel's jump to multiple formats has to be seen as a good thing - especially for the PC, which has recently missed out on a few fairly decent console free-formers games such as Crackdown and of course, Grand Theft Auto IV.

HELL GATE OF LONDON


ABOUT GAME

HELL GATE OF LONDON

It’s 2038, and London lies in ruins...
From Flagship Studios – creators of the award-winning Diablo® series and the fathers of the action role playing genre – comes Hellgate: London, the next benchmark in the evolution of the RPG genre.
Combining the depth of traditional RPGs with the frenetic, visceral feel of first-person shooters, Hellgate: London offers infinite replayability with dynamically created levels, monsters, items and events that gives each player their own unique hack-and-slash experience.
A post-apocalyptic London has been overrun by hordes of terrifying demons, leaving the city desolate and scorched by hellfire. Those who were unlucky enough to survive now gather in the only sanctuary left, the Underground, banding together in order to gain a foothold against the minions of darkness and ultimately save the bloodline of humanity.
It is no surprise that these sole survivors come from three of society’s most elite factions, each of whom are masters of a robust number of skills and weapons essential to demon-thrashing.
The Templar, a secret society preserving the rites of the original Knights Templar, mix futuristic technology with ancient artifacts to create powerful weapons and armor perfect for short-ranged and melee attacks.
The Cabalists are students of the dark arts and edges of science which often leaves them standing right on the line between good and evil. Their mystifying spells make them suited for mid-range combat.
The Hunters are mysterious, highly trained ex-military operatives who lay waste to their foes with hyper-advanced weapons that blend theoretical science and the latest in technology – and their bullets can come from almost any distance.
Hellgate: London delivers an amazing gaming experience to PC gamers of all types – delivering the eye-popping DX10 visuals demanded by the hardcore, and scaling to ensure the masses of casual RPG players can still get the best performance on older PCs.
