ICBM: Escalation Is Out

There couldn’t have been any better timing to release ICBM: Escalation, after the little tantrum Putin trew over the United State’s announcement of letting Ukraine use their long-range missiles to strike Russian territory. A lot of “World War 3” soon started to make the news, and if you’re into that kind of stuff, ICBM: Escalation might be the game for you: a grand-strategy RTS where you command both conventional armies and their nuclear arsenals. ICBM: Escalation is currently 10% off and will set you back $26.99 | 26,09€ | £22.49.

Forgotten But Unbroken Hits Release Date

I really wanted Forgotten But Unbroken to be a good game, however, after booting it up I realized I was playing the same mission I had played in the Steam demo, and immediately knew the issues I had with it hadn’t been ironed out: the poor animations and bland graphics, and the clunky way the game controls. I seem, however, to be in the minority, as the game’s sitting on a mostly positive Steam rating, with 76% of the users considering it worthy of your time, so maybe you’ll find more enjoyment than I did. Forgotten But Unbroken is currently running a launch sale with a 15% discount costing $29.74 | 28,89€ | £25.07 

Urban Strife Out December 10th On Steam

MicroProse’s really going all out at the end of the year, as after the release of Forgotten But Unbroken they’re going to release Urban Strife, a turn-based, zombie-survival strategy title. I haven’t played this one, so I might check it out soon to see if it’s any good. The game’s coming out on December 10th, 2024.

Starship Troopers: Terran Command – New Territory Mode

Amazingly, the team behind Starship Troopers: Terran Command continues working on the game, over 2 years after it first came out as a rather solid and complete title. Currently, they’re cooking new maps and a new “Territory” game mode that’s very similar to the way Company of Heroes works, you capture points on the map and gain resources. Speaking of the Devil…

Company of Heroes 3 Update

The Company of Heroes 3 team keeps toiling away at trying to salvage their game. The Orchid Spide update is bringing new maps, a new Live Observer Mode (it’s spectator mode, okay?), in-game leaderboards, and multiplayer balance changes. This is cool and all, but the game’s single-player is still a buggy mess, and the lack of new single-player content is keeping away a large portion of the audience that loved both Company of Heroes and Company of Heroes 2. Remember that while both titles owe their longevity to their thriving multiplayer scene, they also received substantial single-player additions. So yeah, these efforts are commendable, but it’s using a small bandaid to stop a deep cut.

Also, I just checked and Company of Heroes 2 has more players than Company of Heroes 3, 11 years after it came out.
