    And the new battlefield is called.... Battlefield: play4free. Trailer http://www.gamert.nl/video/de_nieuwe..._heet_pla.html looks good. EA gave us a nice gift with Heroes but it was too cartoony for some (idiots) this should be a hit.

    I hope Hitler and Stalin packed cold weather gear, because it's going to get a little chilly on the 9th plane.

    And it should come as no surprise, DNF release delayed!

    In an announcement today, Gearbox Software president Randy Pitchford surprised nobody with the news that the project has suffered a one more last-minute slip, moving from a 6th of May release date in the UK to the 10th of June - for reasons that have yet to be shared.

    You are like the devil himself with, the harbinger of my doom with bad news.
    Tho' I've belted you an' flayed you,
    By the livin' Gawd that made you,
    You're a better man than I am, Gunga Din!

    The creator of Minecraft is schmoozed by Sean Parker, Napster founder, a la The Social Network:

    This week Markus Persson, the guy behind indie hit Minecraft, mentioned he had two meetings coming up: one with a prospective employee, another with someone who “has a great business idea”. Later, he wrote on his blog that a “rather spontaneous rich guy” met with the team, then invited them to fly to a party in London on his private jet. Which they did.

    When fans pestered him for the identity of the mysterious rich guy on Twitter, Notch confirmed that Majestic XII’s guess was correct: Napster founder and influential Facebook investor Sean Parker. Which makes the whole thing amusingly close to the flashy behaviour of the Sean Parker character in The Social Network, the movie about the founding of Facebook that Parker himself called “a complete work of fiction”.
