《科林麦克雷越野赛:尘埃(DIRT: Colin McRae Off-Road)》除了国际汽联授权的拉力赛事外,还将会加入更多不同类型的越野赛。各类新款的拉力赛车当然是不可缺少的,Subaru Impresa 06加入早已确定,在本次公布的画面中我们还看到了著名的三菱LANCER EVOLUTION 9越野版的赛车,由于三菱车队已经退出了最新一届的WRC比赛,所以能够在游戏中使用该款赛车还是很让人感到十分惊喜的。 本次的游戏画面绝对是照片级的,真实柔和的车体反光,存在感很强的尘土效果都能够让人眼前一亮。前作中车辆碰撞后会发生表面损坏的要素在本作中也会保留,而且碰撞后的物理效果在本作中将表现得更为真实。游戏将会与系列一贯传统一样,无需像《理查德伯恩斯拉力赛》那样精密的操控,赛车游戏初学者也能够通过简单的操作完成爽快的漂移,对于不擅长竞速游戏却又喜爱拉力赛的玩家来说,本作不容错过。

《战地:叛逆连队2》(Battlefield: Bad Company 2),是EA DICE开发的一款第一人称射击游戏。玩家在游戏中继续扮演普雷斯顿马罗威(Preston Marlowe)的角色,与“B连队”,即“叛逆连队”,展开新一场冒险旅程。此时,B连队的士兵们已经归队,这意味着他们可以使用自己军队提供的各种支援,不必再四处搜寻、掠夺物资。 游戏开发商美国艺电确定2010年3月2日为游戏Xbox 360、PS3、PC版的首发日期。该作是EA DICE开发的第9款“战地”系列作品,也是《战地:叛逆连队》的直接续作,在继承前作特性的基础上,加强了多人联机载具对战和团队合作元素的设定。游戏使用加强版的寒霜引擎,加入了建筑物框架破坏和物体分块破坏的支持。 在《战地:叛逆连队2》的游戏背景中,国际局势已经完全恶化,俄美战争全面打响,俄军进攻阿拉斯加的战役已持续近两星期。游戏开始时,B连队来到了格鲁吉亚的乌瑟尔山(属高加索山脉)附近,准备执行上级下达的命令。 在剧情设定方面,《战地:叛逆连队2》的口味将变得比较严肃,黑色幽默成分则相应的有所减少。故事更多地刻画了几个士兵间深厚的情谊,从而在他们遇险时渲染出强烈的“战争悲剧色彩”。

Condemned: Criminal Origins (known in Japan as Condemned: Psycho Crime and in Europe and Australia simply as Condemned) is a psychological horror first-person action video game, developed by Monolith Productions and published by Sega. It was launched worldwide in 2005 on the Xbox 360, with a Microsoft Windows version released later in 2006. The Windows version had few changes from the console version. The game uses a first person perspective. Condemned: Criminal Origins places an added emphasis on melee combat and puzzle solving, including searching for fingerprints and gathering evidence. Upon release, Condemned was met with moderate to good reviews by many aggregates and critics. Many reviewers cited its questionable storyline and lack of progression as the game's biggest fault. As a reprieve, the game's solid controls and fresh approach to the horror genre were praised. A sequel, entitled Condemned 2: Bloodshot, was released on March 11, 2008, for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Other media forms include an internet prequel and a planned film adaptation to expand the Condemned franchise. The developers have cited films such as The Silence of the Lambs and Seven as inspiration for the game.

Buka Entertainment 1998-03-25
genre: Racing / Simulation platform: Windows
You can choose to race with other tracks in two or three simple tracks, and there is a mode where you can just drive a truck to deliver cargo to your designated location. The second mode might be bit boring, since you do nothing but drive a truck and do nothing more, but it's worth it for two reasons - primarily the extremely beautiful landscape you drive through. It is designed with the utmost care and detail and you can really feel like you're really there. And secondly, the game simulates the job of a truck driver pretty accurately. While driving, you get to experience what a real truck driver feels and does on the road. Now, multiply that by a 1000 miles. But mostly, this is a truck racing game. You can change the view from behind the wheel to outside of the truck, whatever you like. There is also a good rearview mirror that helps you while driving. Overall, this is a fantastic truck simulation and racing game and you should try this one and the games sequels, Hard Truck 2 and the rest of the game's series.
