Great (text) commentary explaining how to play the engineer class giving lots of tips. 3 parts to this one.

Respect the PC Gamers
(via)
It’s a well known fact that console gamers are scrubs, they’re abusive and unhelpful and rude. They’ll cheat and hack their consoles given half a chance. Isn’t that right?
PC gamers on the other hand are enthusiastic and helpful. They’re mature and civil about their communities. They delight in the strategy and skill required to use a mouse and keyboard. They never call anyone names and accept games as they are, because nobody ever does anything underhand. Isn’t that right?
Oh yes. Gamers everywhere are all the same. No matter what platform they use.
Team Fortress 2 Goodness
Yes, it’s free to play now and while some would ask, why? I want to share some TF2 videos and links with you…
Proun will make you dizzy!
Proun, a simplistic but colourful and fun racing game has been released on PC. You can download it for free or support the developer by “paying what you want” and you get access to a new track too.
Check out Joost’s history post about the game. I didn’t realise he was the original author of De Blob!
So, six years of development, how did that even happen? It’s not like Proun is the size of a game like Love, so six years may seem a bit long. In short, there are two reasons:
- I created Proun in my spare time;
- there were long intervals during those six years when I didn’t work on Proun at all.
Since Proun pretty much evolved around my life and many projects during the past six years, I feel it makes an interesting story to tell how it came to be. 🙂
Just spotted the RPS review and I’m sure Quintin won’t mind me quoting him:
Wot I Think: Proun
I am a
leaf on the windball on a pipe – watch how I soar.Buy Proun.

Cut the Rope and Burn the Rope for Android can be downloaded for free from getjar.com, but get them soon. Cut the Rope at least will be free for only a week according to this post. Both games are ad-supported. The ads don’t show up on the game screen in Cut the Rope but do on Burn the Rope.
No direct link to the getjar.com game pages unfortunately as it asks for your mobile phone.
Cut the Rope plays just as well as it’s iOS version though I do wonder how well multi touch actions will work on the smaller screen. (Spoiled by the iPad screen and I have big hands!)

Quake turns 15 today. I still have the original CD here somewhere I think.. (via)
Doom II was my first exposure to online multiplayer shooters but Quake took that game to another level again. I probably played more of that game than any other until Bad Company 2 came out..

Dead Island lands in early September so it’ll be a busy few months for games, what with BF3 coming out in October, and for those who want it, MW3 that month too.
This preview of the game paints a positive picture of the gameplay, casting it as a cross between L4D and Dead Rising.
I think it could be a fun coop game. If my PC can run it I’ll probably buy it on Steam. Anyone else interested?

It’s quite impressive how much support Valve give Team Fortress 2. It’s getting a a bit long in the tooth but it continues to get free updates.
This week you can try the game for free through Steam plus there is apparently going to be a big update today, following on the heels of new weapons for the soldier, scout and demoman. Oh, there’s a secret update for the Pyro too.
Now I’m left wondering how do I pick up these weapons? Do they magically appear on the map when playing or are they leveling upgrades? (via)

I’m a sucker for cheap indie game bundles and here’s a $5 one I just bought. It has the following games: Delve Deeper, Spring Up Harmony, Mactabilis, Steel Storm: Burning Retribution and Digitanks.
I already have Delve Deeper thanks to a Steam Sale but I was interested in Steel Storm so this bundle is a cheap way of getting that game and a few others too. Some of the games even have Mac and Linux support!
Ben There Dan That and it’s sequel Time…
Ben There, Dan That! and it’s sequel, Time Gentlemen Please, is on sale on Steam for only 1 Euro or similar prices in other territories. It’s a point and click adventure but there’s a short demo of this humorous little game on the Steam game page.
Yes, it does have NAZI DINOSAURS!
