AusGamers Weekly Wrap (March 1 - 7)

Post by Steve Farrelly @ 10:36am 09/03/10 | 5 Comments

Apologies to all for the tardiness of this, but Firefox needing a restart and little sisters who don't know what they're doing when jumping on your machine to quickly feed some stupid virtual pet they have on Facebook while you're grabbing a coffee don't mix, apparently.

In the Headlines
We kicked off the week asking if YOU wanted to work at AusGamers, 2K Games revealed the first two DLC episodes for Borderlands would be coming to a retail disc, AusGamers looked at the Aliens vs Predator dedicated server option (or lack thereof), the PS3 suffered a short global crash, Sony bought up LittleBigPlanet developer, Nexuiz will be heading to console, Nokia reveal N900 pricing for AU, THQ let loose the first 40K Space Marines screens, Natural Selection 2 was confirmed for Steam and pre-order, Test Drive Unlimited 2 was announced, Infinity Ward and Activision aren't as happy together as first thought, Portal 2 was revealed and we finally showcased results from the AusGamers Game of the Year Awards for 2009.

Videos We Highly Recommend

On the editorial front, we went hands-on with a preview build of Just Cause 2, Mike checked out Runaway: A Twist of Fate in review form, while Dan ran AvP through its review paces as well.

That's it from us for the Wrap for another week, but as usual, stick around for news, files, media, previews and reviews - right here on AusGamers.

Just Cause 2 has really grown in me. Using Lynx's trick you can get a couple of good hours out of the demo.

Did you work out the black market Lynx? 4 and then 'E' where you want the stuff dropped. I've found that a good way to cause chaos is to parachute around, hooking onto and off buildings and dumping remote charges on anything that gives you a red cursor (i.e., destroy it for chaos).

It's a really fun game. Dunno if I'll buy it - if it had coop I'd buy it for certain, but it doesn't.

Haven't had a chance to get back into the game since I got the black market tip. Been busy with work. Shall try it later tonight.
