Happy Diablo weekend to you. We hope you have a very Diablo weekend. May there be enough Diablo to satisfy all your desires. Roll Diablo beautiful Diablo Diablo. Diablo! Some of us might play Max Payne 3.

Tim Turi: This weekend I’ll be juggling my time as gaming’s biggest sad sack, Max Payne, and my brutal barbarian in Diablo III.

Andy Reiner: I'm in the studio all weekend to record Tripping Icarus' fourth album. Any free time I can find goes to Diablo III. Chris Kluwe, our bass player, and I are even playing the game between takes.

Ben Hanson: I have Max Payne 3 and Diablo III, and only one of them is tickling me in ways I never thought I could be tickled. When I started Max Payne 3 I came to the realization that I’m tired of shooting people. You know what I’m not tired of? Having my Witch Doctor hurl thousands of shattering clay pots filled with giant leaping spiders at the undead, Diablo 3 is just neat like that. I also downloaded the original Playstation game called Threads of Fate and I might play a bit more of that. Oh, and I will most likely continue playing the new Mario Tennis game for the 3DS, it is really great so far.

Jeff Marchiafava: This weekend I’ll be having two wildly different gaming experiences: I’ll be shooting dudes in the face in Max Payne 3, and building my own blocky home in Minecraft. Max Payne has all the explosive, gritty action I was hoping for. In my Minecraft world, I just set up a little farming area for growing sugar cane and wheat, and tamed my own pet wolf. I think I may have a multiple personality disorder.

Matt Helgeson: Going to see Blue Oyster Cult at the Ho-Chunk Casino in Baribou, Wisconsin.

Kyle Hilliard: I'll be playing Max Payne 3 and empathetically listening to my wife's complaints about trying to play Diablo III. I might also compete in a spelling bee.

I was a fan of Nail'd, and if you were too, then you should mark your calendars for the arrival of Mad Riders on XBLA, PC, and PSN this month.

The game comes out May 30, and will cost $9.99 or 800 Microsoft Points.

Mad Riders features 45 tracks, shortcuts, boosting, and aerial stunts, and if Nail'd is any indication (click for the review), it should be a pretty fast and crazy experience.

Amidst financial difficulty, 38 Studios released an environment fly-through video of its long-development MMO Project Copernicus.

The roughly 2-minute video gives you a good sense of the world the team has been working on for nearly six years. We don't know much about the game other than it takes places in the Amalur universe. A release date has not officially been announced, but Rhode Island Gov. Lincoln Chafee said at a press conference today he believes it's slated for June 2013.

An HBO Go app launched on Xbox Live last month, but it did so blocking out users of one of the biggest cable companies, Time Warner. That embargo has ended, as Microsoft announced today that Time Warner and Bright House cable subscribers can finally access HBO content through the app on Xbox Live. HBO Go, now available for Time Warner customers.




The HBO Go app brings the network's entire suite of programming to the Xbox 360, allowing gamers to stream shows like Game of Thrones, Entourage, and Deadwood. It is available only to those with a full HBO subscription, and allows users to search and select programs via voice- and gesture-control through Kinect.

Presently, the Xbox 360 is the only game console to offer an HBO Go app. In August 2011, HBO parent company Time Warner CEO Jeff Bewkes said the streaming service would come to game consoles, but no announcements have been made for the PlayStation 3 or Nintendo Wii.

Ubisoft and developer Gearbox Software have been all too quiet about Brothers In Arms: Furious 4. The game was due out in 2012, but we've seen nothing since it was announced at E3 last year.

It was discovered by Internet sleuth superannuation that Ubisoft recently dropped both trademarks for the game. When asked for comment, a representative told Game Informer, "We don’t have anything to share at this point in time."

This recent news doesn't mean Brothers In Arms: Furious 4 is canceled, but it's certainly not looking too good. Game Informer has reached out to Gearbox for additional comment.

EA announced it will wave distribution fees on Origin for crowd-funded games for 90 days. The program is only available to projects that are fully-funded, complete and ready-to-publish.

“The public support for crowd-funding creative game ideas coming from small developers today is nothing short of phenomenal,” said David DeMartini, Senior Vice President of Origin at EA. “It’s also incredibly healthy for the gaming industry.

"Gamers around the world deserve a chance to play every great new game, and by waiving distribution fees on Origin we can help make that a reality for successfully crowd-funded developers.”

One of the confirmed projects appearing on Origin is Wasteland 2 from inXile Entertainment. “I have had a long relationship with EA and it is great to see them recognize and support the crowd-funded games model,” said Brian Fargo, CEO, inXile Entertainment.

“Having Origin waive their distribution fees for 90 days for fan funded games is a major economic bonus for small developers. We look forward to bringing Wasteland 2 to the Origin audience.”

I just bought some new gaming components, but damn if BF3 doesn't push the CPU up to 100° C. Resting, the PC hovers between 45° and 50°, which I think is normal.

I'm using an old case, and stock fan and heat-sink for the i7-2600. The case I need to upgrade, unless I go for liquid cooling. Even then, maybe I still need a new case.

Anybody use liquid cooling systems? How loud are they? How effective are they? Should I just go with some Arctic Silver + fan heat-sink and fan? ]]> The GTF Smittles http://www.gtfrc.com/forums/showthread.php?299145-PC-Cooling-recommendations IGN UK Podcast #137: Break a Leg! http://www.gtfrc.com/forums/showthread.php?299144-IGN-UK-Podcast-137-Break-a-Leg!&goto=newpost Fri, 18 May 2012 15:46:26 GMT Image: http://media.ign.com/games/image/article/122/1224745/uk_podcast_blogroll_new_1337351084.jpg ...

Sly Cooper's upcoming time-traveling adventure will be hitting a larger audience than previously expected. Sanzaru Games has announced that its upcoming Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time will be available on both the PlayStation 3 and the PlayStation Vita.

In addition to the Vita news, Sanzaru president Glen Egan revealed that Carmelita Fox will also have a part to play in the game. Sly's love interest is fully playable in Thieves in Time, and players will be able to use a new over-the-shoulder aiming system that is designed to make targeting easier than before. If you're a die-hard Sony fan and you have both a Vita and PS3, you'll be glad to know that the game supports cross saves. In other words, you can play the game on your Vita and seamlessly pick up where you left off on your PlayStation 3.

Check out the complete post on the official PlayStation Blog for more details. To learn more about Thieves in Time, take a look at our preview.
