Shooter News (TF2, L4D, QL)

I said that I’d post about TF2, L4D and QL, so here goes. They all have share-worthy news.
Left 4 Dead Survival Pack
Left 4 Dead did get a new update a couple of weeks back, which improved the balance a bit. I liked the Smoker changes, but other than that, it was a bit less spectacular [...]

Unreal Tournament 3 Titan Pack

Unreal Tournament 3 lives! If you don’t believe it, just look at this week’s Steam charts — it got to number 3. The recent free UT3 weekend was such a success that for some, it was a failure; the Steam servers were hammered and many didn’t get to finish downloading the game in the first [...]

StarCraft TBG Strategy: Wrapup

Prelude – Orders – Protoss – Zerg – Terrans – Wrapup
Here it is, the final post in this series on possible strategies in StarCraft TBG. The volume of these posts only came natural when I tried to pack as much info as possible into them – the game offers so much depth and breadth everything [...]

StarCraft TBG Strategy: Terrans

Prelude – Orders – Protoss – Zerg – Terrans – Wrapup

Generic Zerg Strategy
In many ways, the Zerg are the opposite of the Protoss, [...]

Francis Hates Everything

You know I love Left 4 Dead — I actually got to play it quite a lot, too. One thing that’s great about the game is how the characters interact (automatically), letting small conversations form in some spots that are different every playthrough of a map.
Now if you’ve heard a few of those conversations, you [...]

StarCraft TBG Strategy: Protoss

Prelude – Orders – Protoss – Zerg – Terrans – Wrapup
This is the first out of three race-specific posts, going into how you can play a race if you want fun with the game. I’ll try to include pointers that help newbies as well as hints that might be new for veterans, let me know [...]

StarCraft TBG Strategy: Orders & Planning

Prelude – Orders – Protoss – Zerg – Terrans – Wrapup
The planning phase is the first of the three phases the game round consists of, and probably the most important one – as most decisions are made here. You decide where you go, where you build, and others decide where they want to screw with [...]
