    Is this Valve's secret "Vortex" project?

    TIL Reports of disappearing homeless people in the Seattle area were in fact kidnappings orchestrated by Valve Software as part of a larger plan to steal our ocular jelly for use in their canteen confectionery.

    ARMA 3

    People have already ported Chernarus and Takistan to the Alpha. Obviously the assets are older, but it's still cool that the existing library of vehicle and weapon mods will be transferable with little effort.

    Iron Man 3 Trailer

    Very cool trailer. I wasn't a massive fan of the second movie but overall I really like Ironman, so this is exciting stuff! :D

    ARMA 3

    This is a really small thing, and I cant remember if it was in ARMA2 or not. If you place a load of the same civilian vehicle it shuffles the skin and license plate. If its an old thing then I apologise as I just noticed it for the first time here.

    ARMA 3

    Just had a quick run around in the Alpha. - This may just be my PC but things already feel a lot smoother and stable than ARMA II. The basic functionality of the client from the menus to the loading screens feels both polished and slick compared to previous versions. This also applies to the...

    Stupid Bohemia Interactive. Always making games about Helicopters and Trees! Get some originality already!

    Cevat Yerli: "Single player games need to go away."

    I think that from the point of view of a lot of large companies, the biggest audience most likely to spend money is in social gaming right now (interconnected worlds, drop-in coop, MMO design, creating and sharing content, item-stores and player markets, etc, etc) so a lot of them are morphing...

    ARMA 3

    The shape of the land looks more interesting too, with the seperate islands and such.

    A Quick Written Guide to Looking Cool on the Internet

    Nothing is cool until such time as someone of coolness says that it is cool. If you attempt to follow this up with an agreement to the aforementioned coolness, then the subject is declared immediately uncool and therefore you are without coolness.

    ARMA 3

    The moment I saw the Steam announcement I knew it was time to batten down the hatches and ride out the bitching. I can certainly see a case against exclusivity, but a lot of people tend to get their wires crossed over the whole thing. They figure it will prevent modding or cause their computer...

    A 'reality tv' comedy movie starring a real hit-man!

    Crimespoilation! At least its not cannibals. He isn't the first criminal to profit from fame, and he won't be the last. The question is how does his role effect the film? Is the movie using a murderer in a specific way to say something meaningful? or is he just there to create media controversy...

    Shooting in games

    I remember when Half-Life 2 came out, one of the few things that bothered me about the game was the way in which the Combine soldiers dropped to the ground like puppets with their strings cut. It didn't hurt my enjoyment of the game at all, it was just noticeably different from how things had...

    CS:GO Steam Workshop Support Is Live!

    Its mainly that the maps reach a much wider audience. A large number of people are turned off from custom content because of the tedium of tracking it down and sifting the good from the bad. An officially supported interface puts every single player a few clicks away from the most popular stuff...

    [UPDATED with second session] Gabe Newell - "Whether We Want to Or Not We're Becoming a Bottleneck"

    Valve have become the games industry equivalent of Willy Wonka's chocolate factory. Smoke keeps coming from the chimneys and trucks keep coming and going but no one ever seems to know what happens within. I feel like I know more about the cafeteria menu at Valve than I do about their actual...
