who needs that.

Anyone else getting Bad Company 2: Vietnam?  It's out on the 18th through EA's store and then the 21st everywhere else.  5 maps, one that'll be earned after everyone does like 60million repair/heal/help out points in the game like they did with 1943.  Only 15 bucks and it comes with two hours of licensed music to play ingame Should be entertaining. 

New Crysis 2 trailer is pretty. It's looking less sandboxy than the original and goes with more instanced combat with multiple options. Take that as you will.

That "To be Strong" thing made it sound like an army commercial.

Regardless, that is looking pretty awesome. Definitely excited for this.

Crysis is very easy to edit via txt files for that, you can tinker with the time until recharge, total recharge time from 0%, and individual suit ability power drain speeds.

also there's a handful of mods that make the game look even more amazing, going off memory there was a skybox mod and an HDR mod that just was just like :O :o

You're supposed to be a super soldier.  Don't bring the player down to the level of enemies, bring the enemies up to the player.

they did have  a couple guys using the 'lolmade in china' versions of the suit. im not sure what point you're trying to make now though. are you saying the AI isnt hard enough, or the suit powers weren't a large part of the gameplay ?

This is a game just spotted (currently in development) which I thought Chrono might be interested in: http://tzai-entertainment.com/games/shmusicup/

This isn't really news as it's just speculation into the future, but it's a fun read and a large portion of what is mentioned certainly will become prominent in PC gaming in the future.

Oh, and the PC Gaming Alliance (a bunch of hardware and software developers) got a new president and apparently he actually wants the alliance to do something for once. Oh, and there are now talks about a PC conference at E3 like the ones given by Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo. That's nice.

I never read SC:II news,but I noticed the new Razor SC:II gear and I checked some other news posts, noticed that Blizzard released the rest of the Single Player cheat codes worth a read for the lol reference factor on some of the codes

I'm sure two or three people here know about the game Nightsky which is developed by that dude that made the Knytt games. Anyway, his game is coming to Windows and Mac January 6th to most digital retailers except Steam. Steam rejected the game. Jerks.
