PC Crysis Demo Download!
Finally, after a long, patient wait, EA has officially released a PC demo for their new epic-FPS Crysis. The demo is single-player only, weighs in at a bloated 1.77GB, and requires NVIDIA driver updates to play, but it’s a small price to pay to kick some virtual alien ass!

EA and Namco Bandai Games America Announce Summer 2007 Ship Window for Hellgate: London
Hotly-Anticipated Action-RPG From Flagship Studios Set to Heat up PCs This Summer
LAS VEGAS –(Business Wire)– Jan. 8, 2007 Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ:ERTS) and NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc. today announced a summer 2007 worldwide ship window for the highly-anticipated online action RPG Hellgate: London(TM), the first original PC title from premier developer Flagship Studios.
“We are all committed to making Hellgate: London absolutely the best game possible,” said Bill Roper, CEO of Flagship Studios. “The anticipation surrounding the game is immense and we are looking forward to its launch being a truly worldwide event.”
Hellgate: London combines the depth of role-playing games and the action of first-person shooter titles, while offering infinite playability with dynamically generated levels, items, enemies and events. The player creates a heroic character, completes quests, and battles through innumerable hordes of demons to advance through experience levels and branching skill paths. A robust, flexible skill and spell system, highly customizable appearances, and a massive variety of randomly generated equipment allow players to create their own unique hero.
Here are some more exclusive screenshots of Hellgate: London:



Latest Battlefield 2142 Screenshots

Before I tell you where to get these gorgeous screenshots, I feel compelled to inform you of the obvious: that the year that this game purports to be in (2142), is 100 years after 1942, which of course was the height of WWII and the year that the previous Battlefield game took place in. This begs the question, will EA Games continue to name their expansions in such a pattern? Will there be a Battlefield 2242, a Battlefield 2342, and a Battlefield 2442? Will the Battlefield series die with this game? In any case, the newest Battlefield 2142 screenshots are available at EA Games’ official website, along with a 20 minute gameplay video.
