Crysis 2 Achievements

Every cloud has a silver lining.

This is the achievement list for Crysis 2. These achievements are the same for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The PC version doesn’t have any achievements so you will have to pretend to get them. They are the usual complete a level on various difficulties. They also contain multiplayer ones which are of the usual type. The achievement called “Dedication” (25 G) which requires you to play online 6 months after your first time, is a cheap way to get people to come back at least once after they likely stopped playing. After playing the Crysis 2 multiplayer demo on Xbox 360 I am feeling a bit more optimistic about the games multiplayer credentials. I will most likely review it soon.

There are 50 achievements with a total of 1000 Gamerscore.

Crysis 2 Multiplayer Demo Review (PC)

Don’t worry, I will stay here.

These are my thoughts and opinions on the Crysis 2 multiplayer demo which is now available on the official site and on steam. These are my impressions of the pc version and what you can expect to experience, see and do in the demo. I will try to give as much detail as possible but I will mostly concentrate on the things I feel are the most important.

Magicka: Vietnam Trailer and Patch #11

Magicka: Vietnam is the first expansion for Magicka which will soon be available for digital download. Whether it will be free or not is unknown. 

Vietnam will deliver all the over the top action, players would except to see from a top 80s action film while also allowing the cloth wearers to do what every action hero loves doing… blowing stuff up while accidentally team killing.

The Crysis 2 Multiplayer Demo Is Now Available

The Crysis 2 multiplayer demo is now available from Steam and many other download sites. It is also available on Xbox 360 with a PlayStation 3 version arriving sometime in the future.

It is 1.5GB in size and contains two playable maps Skyline and Pier 17, both look completely different. Skyline is set on top of a skyscraper in New York while Pier 17 is set in a pier type setting (shock). Pier 17 is the better map because of its variety but Skyline is a good compact map. There are also two game modes, Team Instant Action (team deathmatch) and Crash Site (defend a location).

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Official Trailer

This is the new trailer for the fifth Elder Scrolls game. It tells more about the story and shows of some of the improved visuals over the previous game Oblivion. It also shows how some of the game will actually look like when played. To be honest it just looks like Oblivion with improved visuals and added features. It also reminds me a lot of Dragon Age II. That isn’t a bad thing of course. Dragons are in fashion these days.

Dragon Age II Demo Is Available

"Ay, ay, a scratch, a scratch; marry, 'tis enough."

The Dragon Age II Demo is available via the official Dragon Age II website. It is 1.9Gb in size and it continues the story of the Dragon Age. Its worth checking out for the free in-game item you get for its completion and for contributing to the target EA have set of getting a million downloads to unlock two further in-game items. Like a lot of preorder items or free items they won’t be anything special. You probably replace them within an hour of playing. Anyway its going to be a good game. The rest of the game will be out on the 11th March 2011. March is going to be a good month for games.
