Ghosts, gambling and Freelancer join Xplosiv range

Xplosiv announces its March line-up of PC titles for £4.99 and £9.99.

Xplosiv has announced its first batch of new budget PC releases for 2005 set to go on sale in the UK this March at £4.99 and £9.99 price points.

Pretty soon a penny shy of five quid will get you a copy of the flawed but quirkily enjoyable Ghost Master (reviewed back on a Friday 13th, spookily, in June 2003) and empire building title Vegas: Make It Big.

Meanwhile the ten-quid bracket welcomes World War II RTS Blitzkrieg, American Conquest, and the GTA-in-space-ish Freelancer, which Rob really quite liked when he took a look at it back in March of 2003.

You may recall that Xplosiv recently revealed plans to release a few PS2 budget-priced titles in Q1, including Bad Boys II (£19.99), Spin Drive Ping Pong and Gunbird Special Edition (both £9.99).
