I Am Alive director says PC version is still possible

After insulting “bitching” PC fansand casting doubton a computer version ofI Am Alive, director Stanislas Mettra has restated his case with a little more positivity. He now says he’d “love” to see a PC version, and blames his pessimism on miscommunication. “I would really love to see a pc build of the game and I dont think I meant to say ‘the game won’t happen on pc’ it’s probably an English language miscommunication (I am not native English speaker),” he said....

It’s mostly Resident Evil and Dead Rising in Capcom’s new Humble Bundle

Pay to slay The theme forthe next Humble Bundleis publisher-oriented before, and that’s something that we’ve seen time and time again. However, the sub-theme narrows the scope (mostly) down to two prominent franchises that a lot of people have a lot of love for:Resident EvilandDead Rising. The first tier isn’t super indicative of that trend. Anyone who pays $1 or gets Steam keys forStrider,Umbrella Corps, andDmC: Devil May Cry. There’s only one title there that fits the trend and it’s the unfortunateUmbrella Corps....

Lord of the Rings Online not merging servers, still growing

Most MMOs launch big with sizzle and promise. Inevitably, we see reports that players are leaving Activision Blizzard’s behemoth to check out the new stuff. Then, almost as inevitably, we hear whispers of server merging, of server shutdown, and of developer and player exodus. It’s a cyclical thing. As1UP notes, titles likeTabula Rasa,Warhammer Online, andAge of Conanhave all failed in some way (others in bigger, more impressive ways). But notLord of the Rings Online, Turbine’s obviously venerable MMO based on Tolkien’s original trilogy....

In high school, while my brother and twin sister were out winning state track titles, I was taking naps in my car during practice. I just find it difficult to enjoy something that makes me feel like my heart is going to explode, but I think the biggest problem with running is that there’s nothing distracting me from how much pain I’m in....
