If the world of business is at all like the world of war then it's obvious that Square Enix is on the offensive right now. The previously Japanese-centric developer and publisher is currently expanding massively and is attempting to seize a dominant position in the west.
Not long ago the developers of Final Fantasy swooped in and bought up Eidos, gaining control of powerful western franchise like Tomb Raider, Hitman, Thief and Deus Ex in the process. Now, the company is publishing the first in a long line of western-focused games – a blend of cultures and influences which has the potential to be very exciting.
GamersGate has released it's Deal of the Day for the 22nd.
Todays game is Silent Hunter 5: Battle of the Atlantic at 75% off the list price.

Game Vortex writes: "Who doesn't love it when they get what they asked for? Not too long ago I played and reviewed Order of War, or OoW as you would see it in the forums. I said then, "I would like to see a more challenging title quickly on the heels of this one, as long as it can keep the same graphical and gameplay quality." Well, the Wargaming.net folks heard me loud and clear, and delivered us Order of War: Challenge. They even threw what I was looking for into the title, so what more could I want? Any feeling of the word "casual" that I used last time to describe the game is replaced with the frantic, in your face, play you can only get from human competitors. The best part is that this is a standalone title. If single player isn't your thing, why waste time? You can jump right in with this multiplayer version."
