I hope everyone had a productive gaming week, I’ve been enjoying Frontlines: Fuel of War on Steam along with starting a new character on Titan Quest in light of Iron Lore Entertainment’s closure this past week. Despite some annoying stuttering, the game is an excellent hack n’ slash RPG with plenty of loot and inventory juggling.
Speaking about Iron Lore, the last game the company worked on is being released this week, which I highly suggest any PC strategy gamer to pick up (retail and Steam). Along with being the third and last expansion pack, Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War Soulstorm, adds plenty of new features, including new units for existing races, flying units and a much larger meta warfare campaign. Also buy the game to support the developers find new gigs.
A few other notable games being released this week including 2K Sports’ Major League Baseball 2K8 for a wide array of platforms, rival Sony’s MLB 08: The Show for PS3, PS2 and PSP, EA’s co-op shooter Army of Two for Xbox 360 and PS3, the long-awaited port of Bully for Xbox 360 and Wii, the PS2 port of Silent Hill: Origins and the excellent action game God of War: Chains of Olympus for PSP.
