The closed beta for SMITE, the action MOBA from Hi-Rez Studios (developers of Tribes: Ascend and Global Agenda) is launching tomorrow and you can register you interest in joining the beta right here, or you can pre-order the game to guarantee access to the beta. I’m not a big fan of the MOBA genre, DOTA is perhaps the most well known alongside League of Legends, but they haven’t really appealed to me. SMITE might be different as it brings you…

Crysis 2 Returns To Steam With Maximum Edition

The long war between Origin and Steam has seen several casualties disappear from Valve’s service, and others not arrive there at all. One of the big titles to disappear was Crysis 2, but in a strange quirk it is now back on Steam and in Maximum Edition form which contains all four Limited Edition unlocks as well as the Retaliation and Decimation multiplayer map packs.
