Pioneer Valley Gamer’s First Lan Party.

Will be held at four rivers school in greenfield ma, so if you’re in the area or just feel like traveling, drop by and win something.
It’s only $10 if you pay before the day, and only $15 at the door so theres no reason not to show up… unless your preoccupied… Yes unfortunetly I am unable to attend due to a previously scheduled event, but in spirt I’m backing this thing full force.
Peace, Zypher
The Gamestop Indie Contest. is opening it’s eyes to all the indie game developers out there, and you should try to catch them.

First prize is $100,000 US and a scholarship to SMU. Thats some major coinage there.
It does come at a price though, to win you need to submit either a finished game on disc -or- a video describing the game you wish to make… and $100 to cover the costs of the greathall their renting, yeah it baffled me too.
But hey, you gotta do what needs to be done to get noticed in this industry… personally $100 for a raffle ticket is a little steep to me, but w/e.
Peace and Good Luck,

GRID™ on Steam. Is 50% off this weekend, So If you’ve been living under a rock or just haven’t had a chance to see what a modern racing game can be these days, PICK THIS ONE UP NOW!
Admittedly I’m not crazy about race games, I played some Gran Turismo 2 back in the day, and I still rather enjoy some Flat Out… but this game is just fantastic. The graphics are 9/10 at worst, the control is 8/10 at worst and the fun factor is 7/10 at worst, which really says alot considering I Don’t usally enjoy racing games.
I’m immediatly headed to the bank to drop some money in my account for this.
Peace,

Fallout 3 on Steam is 50% off this weekend, and I highly recommend you pick up a copy.

If you’ve got any kind of patience for your video games, then fallout 3 is for you. It’s not your average FPS though, so don’t be fooled. This is more like an FP-RP-S or First Person Role Playing Shooter, and it does take some time to ramp up.
I’ll be combing my couch cushions however, just trying to scrap some change together and pick up fallout 3, It’s that good. Oh and for skills, I’d suggest: Repair, Small Arms, and Medicine.
Peace,
