In a post I don't really understand, Kaos Sudios have announced on the forum that the demo for their upcomming shooter Frontlines: Fuel of War, has been leaked, but it is also legit, and they are encouraging people to play it. Odd? Very, but worth checking out so long as you don't mind uninstalling when the official demo is released.

I don't really understand but check it out here.

As much as it is bashed as being lame, stupid, and for pre-teens, one must be impressed by the sheer popularity of Runscape; the online browser based MMORPG. The game has had over 130 million players; that's more than there are people in a hell of a lot of countries!

And now, for those 130 million, things have just got a bit nicer; there have long been complaints about how poor the game looked, but now Jagex have decided to upgrade the look and call it HD (although it isn't really HD). Check out the youtube video here , remembering that this is running in a browser, so it is not a competitor to WoW or the like

The obscurely titled Raven Squad: Operation Hidden Dagger is set to do something a bit mad, combine two wildly different genres together, FPS, and RTS. RTS requires tactics and intellegance, whereas FPS requires accuracy and fast fingers.... how can they combine?

Apparenlty you need to switch between both to "Make it out of the jungle alive!"

Okay... sounds...interesting.

Cevat Yerli; the constantly talking CryTek CEO has had a nice interview with IGN and has expanded on his on previous predictions about piracy, stating that for Crysis it has been between the ratios of 15:1 or 20:1...that means for every single person who bought the game, more than 15 people stole it. This really is the problem with PC gaming currently, how are companies supposed to make money when the PC community is just working so hard against them?

Guild Wars 2, although more than likely set to be "just another MMO", is still very interesting to the normal gaming community, as the series has made itself on being completely and utterly free to play. It does however, dismiss the possibility of a public beta this year, something many GW fans were looking foward to.

Check it out.

After a product listing making us all hope that perhaps, just perhaps, StarCraft II was due to be released near to the end of this year, our hopes have been smashed. After asking Executive Vice President Rob Pardo, Internode have found that the game is only a third complete, and saying that they will have something impressive to show by the end of the year...that doesn't shound like a release!

With the flood of MMOs on the market, it's sad to see there isn't a great deal that are set in space; I mean, it's the perfect place, there is just SO much that developers can put there; but all we get is the massively complex EVE. Hopefully this will stop now, with the opening of beta for Jumpgate Evolution, an interesting looking MMO.
