James of Twinfinite writes "In a world where Starcraft 2 almost totally dominates the real time strategy world, it’s pretty hard for newcomers to differentiate themselves from the old guard. Blizzard’s aforementioned genre giant, along with Stronghold and the Command & Conquer series, used to be a Bermuda Triangle into which many upstart strategy titles fell. As time went on, even the stalwart Command & Conquer fell into its own darkness. Now some ex-Westwood developers are back to wage bloody war in the real time strategy world with Grey Goo, and it gets gooey."
Grey Goo blends classic, established gameplay mechanics and tropes with modern design tools and technology to create a thoughtful, exhilarating strategy experience.
How often can you pick up a good game for less than R50? How about eight great games for R47? The new Indie Legends 5 bundle from Bundle Stars packs eight of the best Indie titles of the year (valued at over R1400) into one great bundle, and it only costs $3.49 (R47.22)!
VGChartz's Taneli Palola: "Sometimes a video game composer's entire career can be defined by his or her work on a single franchise, regardless of how many other soundtracks they may have created over the course of their career. In many ways, this is exactly what happened to the person we're talking about today - Frank Klepacki. He is one of the most prominent and prolific western video game composers of the past 25 years, having worked in the industry since he was 17 years old."
I recently bought the C&C Ultimate Edition ($8 special from Amazon) which included 17 C&C titles. It came with a bunch of tracks from the series and they're now on my MP3 player in my car. I've been rolling around blasting Hell March and others for the past week fantasizing about directing Mammoth tanks to blow up other vehicles in my way in traffic. Lol!
Ever since I first played the first C&C back in the 90's, I've been a huge fan of Klepacki's work. The man is a true legend.
