Minecraft beta update 1.5 to include weather effects

So. First wolves are added, now snow is coming back.

Are dog sleds coming in 1.6?

Monday Night Combat is free to play on Steam this weekend

I thought that at first too, for the same reasons already mentioned. It's a class-based multiplayer shooter with graphics that look like TF2. I watched a video (only one so far, I'm downloading it now and then I'll try it myself) and it looks like a very good combination of TF2 and DOTA. It has different classes like TF2, and you escort bots to blow something up like you do in DOTA.

NPD: Call of Duty: Black Ops is the US's best-selling game ever

I don't think people are saying the game is bad, they're just saying it reuses a lot of old features without adding many so they don't think it should be selling that much. When some games like TF2 will add new guns, maps, and game modes for free years after its launch, Activision does this in the form of either costly DLC or a sequel when there's not a whole lot of new content for some to call it a real sequel. So I'm pretty sure they're not hating the game, they're just hating that people will spend $60 on a game with only a few features that are different from the previous one in the series. I'm no expert, but after checking a few websites listing differences between MW2 and BO, there wasn't much.

PS3 trophies threatened by jailbreak tool

@Vidikron
No, random time stamp's won't make them completely undetectable. They're probably smart enough to make the platinum unlock last, but for other trophies, it would be strange to get a trophy such as "Beat the game on OMG IMPOSSIBLY DIFFICULT LEVEL" before a trophy given for completing the first level (assuming the game has more than one level). Obviously, it would still be very time consuming to go through every PSN member's trophies looking for flaws like that.

Steam discounts all Borderlands content, Fallout: New Vegas and more

It's already on sale. As far as I know, the entire Valve catalog is on sale at 50% off through January 2nd. That means Team Fortress 2 is $10. But Counter-Strike Source was on that deal too and now it's even less ($5), and Portal had a lower sale ($3.74) too so I'm hoping Team Fortress 2 gets an even better sale, lol. If not, well, I'll get it for $10 on the last day.

They tried that in Stargate once, it killed all the weak minions but the important bad guy was still alive.

Microsoft's fault.

RTS and FPS mixed up into a Warsoup

Dec 7th 2010 7:36AM (Joystiq)
@Acosta02
Don't forget Natural Selection 2, which will be its own game. I immediately thought of NS2 when seeing this post. I'll like NS2 more myself, I think, because it actually gives one player the opportunity to be the commander that plays from an RTS point of view, while this Warsoup game is pretty much just an FPS that lets you build a lot of stuff.

Underneath the Windows and Apple logos, it says "PC / Mac."
