The stand-alone expansion to Supreme Commander is on the horizon, and Game Informer is giving you the first look here. Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance introduces an all-new playable faction, more than 100 new units, new maps and a new single-player campaign. Saying that this game adds a few new things to the game is a bit of an understatement.
In Forged Alliance, the remaining human forces have to set aside their differences as they face a terrifying new enemy, backed by The Order. The new faction is devious and driven to kill, and has access to advanced quantum technology. If you want to keep humanity from being extinguished, you'd better bring your best strategies.
Amazon Downloads Deal of the Week have recently been released.
This week online retailer will be offering THQ Bundle.
Direct2Drive's Spring Sale continues into Week 2 today, offering big discounts on over 20 titles including Grand Theft Auto IV for just $7.50.
That is an absurdly low price for GTAIV. Just make sure your computer can run it...
What caused GTA IV not being able to run that well even on high end computers?
cpu threading was messed resulting in poor performance on anything short of a quad core. I think its been patched though
Just a heads up to anyone if they do get it, DO NOT UPDATE IT TO THE LATEST PATCH. The latest patch by good ole Rockstar Toronto has screwed GTA 4 up so much for a large number of users it isn't even funny.
Most people have come to the consensus that patch 1.0.3.0 or 1.0.4.0 are the best patches for this game, you will save yourself a lot of headaches if you avoid patch 1.0.0.4 and 1.0.6.0 (yep they couldn't even get the version numbering right).
bought it only had it on 360 and the disc scracthed and been wanting play the story again.
electricshadow i have the episodes on a 5750 quad core phenom 6gb drr3 ram running it at 1080p and it runs fine at about 45-50fps with max settings and 8xaa
anyones knows who i could purchase it outside usa or canada? im in south america but neither steam or 2d2 have GTAIV available, but they have the lost and the dammed
