Happy 15th Birthday, Doom

Want to feel old? Today marks the 15th anniversary of the day Doom was originally released. (Hard to believe it’s only five years older than Half-Life, huh?) Widely considered one of the greatest games ever, Doom was also one of the most influential. At one point, Doom was installed on more home computers worldwide than [...]

Review: Exodus From the Earth (PC)

GameCyte recently moved to a star-based scoring system for game reviews, in which we described a three-star game as the average entry. In my own words, I promised that extreme scores would be “more difficult to obtain as they veer farther to either end of the spectrum,” and I meant that — which is why [...]

On the first of the month, Nexon’s Min Kim told AFP that while he didn’t expect the company’s free-to-play games would have quite the runaway success in the U.S. that they enjoy in South Korea, he expected some “pretty big numbers” regardless. Today, Nexon has published one of those numbers: 1,000,000. That’s the number of users [...]

No More TF2 Updates This Year

Dammit, dammit, dammit, dammit! In a disheartening conversation with Shacknews, Valve’s Doug Lombardi has announced that our favorite team-oriented FPS won’t be seeing any more major updates until 2009. Team Fortress 2 won’t get any new weapons, no class upgrades or new achievements, no gameplay modes, nada. Seems the majority of the TF2 team have [...]

New Punisher FPS to Feature Customizable Punishment

Yesterday, when we relayed the news of Zen Studios’ new PSN FPS based around Marvel’s The Punisher, we had a few guesses about what the game would entail. We’re cautiously holding out hope for some decent, gritty mayhem despite Zen Studios’ track record, and today, the Hungarian developers supplied Sony’s PlayStation.Blog with a few answers [...]

Left 4 Dead is Left 4 a Little Longer

Valve, delaying a game? Say it ain’t so. Unfortunately, it is so, as Valve has announced today that Left 4 Dead, their co-op zombie-blasting survival shooter, will be releasing a few weeks later than anticipated. The new release date is set for November 20th, 2008, landing on the 10th anniversary of Half-Life, the game that [...]

Heavy Update: Meet the Sandvich

Honestly, when Valve announced yesterday that the all-new gameplay mode for Team Fortress 2 was nothing more than a team deathmatch mode, I was a little disappointed. Especially given that the new mode is one-death-and-you’re-out, which is really kind of a detriment to those of us who aren’t that great at staying alive for more [...]
