Its been a long time – GLaDOS
Portal was one of the best puzzle games in 2009. Possibly the perfect mix of game for the acerage geek. Puzzle action and humour, add a dash of geek referance and geek nostalgia and there you have it. It looks like the developers are taking the sequel to a whole new level.
Just have a look you will be amazed on how valve have put this teaser together.

5 classic indie games, the humble indie bundle.
Aquaria, Gish, Lugaru HD, and Penumbra Overture .. AWESOME !!!
Note, the games will be “free as in ‘free speech’, not as in ‘free beer’”: see each license for the full, finalized details as they come out very hopefully this week — stay tuned. It is the underlying code that will be made available to everyone.
Please support this project. The games are free now (Or about to be free) however shouldn’t we be contributing. The answer is YES we should be contributing to such a generous offer from the developers. There generous offer will hopefulyl start a trend, a trend that I can only hope goes beyond the initial outlay. Buy one for yourself, one for your friends. Sheesh, a late mothers day present. Just get off the couch and do it.
So very true.
Scroll to the bottom for a comprehensive list of games released in the 09 – 10 period. + A quick note. It horrifies me to admit that my most popular article (this one) is most likely my worst. Don’t forget I’m giving away a copy of Blood Bowl (via steam) for anyone that can offer a decent header for geek-haven. Also i’m looking for people interested in the new online RPG geek-haven is developing.
It’s been an interesting year for me, and I can only guess the same goes for most of you.
Tragedy and Joy, political intrigue the Global Financial Crisis, the Election of America’s first African American President (Yes I know he’s not 100% African American but the fact that is an issue speaks volumes about the American populace and the important step this was for America as a whole.)
The sad and truly unwholesome death of ‘the King of Pop’ Michael Jackson (When i say unwholesome I wish to refer to the vultures and ass clowns whom simply would not let the poor man rest in piece. Simply put have some respect for the dead you ass clowns.)
On 23 November 2009, the first proton–proton collisions were recorded, at the injection energy of 450 GeV per particle.
Well the past few days I have been trying to get the beta version of the mod working and finally some success. The mod offers a MechWarrior game utilising the crysis engine which adds up for a great game. Some minor issues I had where not having some of the mod files in the right areas as some of the installation guides were not the most comprehensive ones I have seen, still with some thinking and many reinstalls of crysis later I finally got it up and it does not disappoint.

So It’s not a big surprise to people that know me when I bitch about Halo. The rave, the lunacy, the frat boy society that pervades the Halo Franchise all in all simply takes a less than absolute fps game experience and defecates on it. Let’s just get it all out in the air. Halo is a console fps and console fps’ are still 3 years behind PC fps games. That is of course until Activision’s COD4.
Those of you who have played COD 4 will have undoubtedly appreciated in both console and PC form. Being that PC is my preferred gaming media device I will say COD4 on PC was better than COD 4 on Console however the experience is legitimately arguable. COD 4 brought real fps gaming to the Console. None of this uber jump and sniper pistols, no Zombies’ or Alien’s or Alien Zombies in fact not even forgetull pathing ai’s. COD 4 was plain and simple a tactical modern combat game across all consoles. ( It could be argued that COD 2 and COD 3 were pc/console equivalents. They weren’t!)
COD6 is that and more.
I’ve just finished the Call of Duty – Modern Warfare 2 single player campaign on normal and I can only describe the experience as the single most intense and absorbing piece of entertainment media I have ever had the pleasure to be a part of. ** please note full article may have spoilers. Though if you have been reading the news or have any interest in the game you’ll know what I’m talking about already.

So Borderlands is coming. A gaming buddy of mine [Judas] introduced me to this game a few years back when it looked like development might have gone the way of the Nukem. Fortunately it hadn’t.
