| Another very happy 980 owner here. It's amazing how cool and quiet that card runs. After the current VRAM-controversy about the 970 (which this article never mentions), I'm glad to have chosen the 980 over the 970. |

The man you've killed the most
| It was his voice that made Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time as charming as it was. Huge mistake not to use him again in Warrior Within, or in Prince of Persia 2008. Nolan North did a decent job in the latter game, but sounded too much like Nathan Drake. |

Guardians of Middle-earth review
|
No mention of the horrible matchmaking? Playing on the 360, I have matchmaking times of 6-30+ minutes, and even then often end up playing against all AI. This alone makes the game unplayable. Like Demigod a few years ago, this seems another MOBA-style game that seems to be doomed due to its absence of dedicated servers and poor matchmaking, both of which are crucial for this type of game. |

Test Drive: Ferrari Racing Legends Review
| It's a great game (especially the tracks), but the difficulty is extremely uneven. The first few races (in the golden period), are pretty easy, even on hard, but then you get to a race that is completely impossible, even on the easiest difficulty level. |

Bleszinski wants Gears of War to be more Nolan Batman, less Schumacher Batman

Steering Wheel Group Review
|
I am very happy with the Microsoft Speed Wheel. It really is much more accurate and immersive than the controller. Also, it's so much easier to use than a "real" wheel, so you will actually use it. So many people that are negative about it when they first see this wheel are really enthusiastic when they actually use it. For me, it's the best new accessory of this generation. |

SHIFT 2: Unleashed

Need for Speed: SHIFT 2 in the works?

Homefront
| Frontlines was underwhelming? For me it was one of the big surprises of the last few years. Multiplayer was great (50-player matches!), and even the single-player was surprisingly good, with all its gadgets and multiple approaches to complete goals. |

"There will be racing fans who believe there wasn't anything that needed "curing" in the first place." That's me. I absolutely adored the PGR games. The daily tournaments in PGR4 are still the best approach in any racing game to encourage an active online racing scene. The weather effects of PGR4 are still unequalled. I would have loved a new PGR game with greatly extended community features. |

Section 8

BioWare's Dr Greg Zeschuk

Tech Comparison: Street Fighter IV PC

| ET:QW did exist on consoles, but the console versions were not made by Splash Damage, and all innovative features (like the dynamically-generated missions) were stripped. The console versions simply can not be compared to the original PC version. |

From the article: "NFS Shift looks like it's just jumping on where Gotham was, it's almost like you can see them saying oh, no Gotham this year, let's do Gotham." Ah, good. This means I will be playing NFS Shift this year. |

Dragon Age: Origins
| By saying "I think for a lot of players it's important to note that it is a PC game primarily." Bioware seems to want to keep the expectations for the console versions pretty low. Also, the fact that at this very late stage they're still experimenting with the console UI and control scheme leaves me wondering how polished the end result will be on consoles... |

Ten Level Test: Final Fantasy XI vs Lineage II
| I've played Lineage II for a very short time (I got a free 2 months when Tabula Rasa was killed), and it's amazing to me how much effort NCSoft has put into the character design and animations, and how little into the gameplay. It was fun trying out all the emotes of the female dark elf, though. |

Prince of Persia: Epilogue
| Prince of Persia was my game of the year 2008, and its ending was the best ending I have seen in a game. I loved how the Prince doesn't say a word at all in the closing sequence, but just slaps his hands on the coffin, and brings eveything to its grim conclusion. So, I'll be getting this, for sure. |

Need for Speed: Shift
| This looks great so far. I hope that finally a console racer will have a great in-car view that is actually usable. PGR4 was worse than PGR3 in this respect (unreadable dials, too-low position), and Race Pro is a big disappointment in the graphical area. |

Darkfall sees troubled, delayed launch
| It was pretty hilarious, in the last few years, to read MMO forums about Darkfall, with some regarding it as the great saviour of the MMO genre, and others seeing it as vapourware from an obscure developer, only meant to take the pre-order money and run. It will be interesting to see how this pans out... |

Excellent, excellent article! And the spiraling text input deservers another mention. That this has never been copied is mind-boggling. Also a tip for pad-lovers: I played it with the 360 pad, using the Pinnacle pad-support software (http://www.pinnaclegameprofiler.com), and after customzing the inputs to be almost the same as the original Xbox version that works great! |

Warner acquires Snowblind Studios
| The Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance and the Champion games are still by far the best Diablo-style games made for consoles (and they looked incredibly good, at the time), so I'm looking forward to what Snowblind will do next. I hope it's not another superhero game, though. |
