Company of Heroes

It’s a good thing this game is set during World War 2. There’s so much red tape you have to go through these days, you’d never be able to set up a limited liability company called the Company of Heroes today. Nope, you’d be lucky to get as far as registering the name with the various government agencies.

Instead, we’d be playing Bunch of Blokes with Guns, which has a far less dramatic air to it. See how lucky we are? We’re also blessed that Company of Heroes, whatever its name might have been, offers an excellent line in turn-based strategy gaming.

Beginning with the aftermath of the Normandy landings, it’s up to you to pull on your greens and don a helmet as you take control of Able Company, a collection of hardened troops tasked with the liberation of France.

From selecting the units that you’ll take with you into the fray to calling in airstrikes, it’s up to you to meet the objectives handed down from HQ.
These range from capturing various strategic buildings and positions and defending against enemy counter-attacks to carrying out ambushes on unsuspecting German columns. It’s gritty stuff and, thanks to the way that the game plays, it’s gripping, too.

Ukrainian alternate-reality game S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl will come to mobile phones through Qplaze, a Ukraine game developer, to be published by NOMOC Publishing Company.

The mobile version of first-person shooter S.T.A.L.K.E.R. will boast 3D gameplay, stealth and mini-quests. The plot will be like the PC version of the same game, with known characters, heroes, objects and locations, but will not replicate it. A unique 3D engine will be used, allowing the game to work even on weak phone models. Read the rest of this entry »

Crash Of The Titans
It’s never pleasant to see your childhood heroes fizzle out. Some actors don’t seem to know when to stop taking roles better suited for people half their years, sports personalities often soldier on with their careers despite what their ageing bodies are telling them and many musicians continue to ply their trade regardless of the fact that any shred of credibility they once had has long since departed them.

The mascots of the 16- and 32-bit console arena can also be lumped in with these unfortunate and ultimately misguided souls. As console technology speeds ever faster towards the promised land of ‘hyper realism’, the need for cuddly and colourful characters fades.

Over the past few years we’ve seen the once dominant Sonic The Hedgehog brand stumble and falter thanks to some decidedly dodgy starring roles, and even the likes of Mario and Mega Man don’t seem to have the same razor-sharp edge they once possessed.

Crash Bandicoot – once mooted as the mascot of Sony’s all-conquering PlayStation console – has also fallen on hard times. Crash of the Titans, the series’ latest instalment, has been released to a largely lukewarm reception on several different formats and this mobile interpretation is loosely based on the template set down by its underwhelming console brethren. It’s a pretty straightforward scrolling brawler – one that isn’t particularly involving and which becomes an unassailable hindrance after prolonged play.
