 The action is still yet to come in the queen stage of Giro d'Italia, so while we're waiting for Denis Menchov to go crazy on the last mountain, here's the Weekly News edition 73.
Cyanide releases new game
A while ago, we reported that Cyanide was working on a free-of-charge (or free-to-play, as Cyanide puts it) multiplayer game called Dungeon Party. The game is taking place in a crazy virtual world where you compete with a team vs. another one to win treasures. It sounds fun - I haven't had time to play it myself just yet, though.
Anyway, the game has now been released, and you can find more information about it on the official website. And for those really interested, the game has actually been reviewed by the website Free MMO Gamer, scoring 7 out of 10 with one of the conclusions being that "Dungeon Party has everything to be big among the free MMOs". Last, but not least, make sure to check out PCM.daily's thread for the game.
... and announces a new one
Having released one game doesn't mean that Cyanide is going to sit back and relax, it seems. They've acquired the rights to make a game based on George R. R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire" book series. There's not much information about what kind of game Cyanide is going to make, but I guess we'll know more soon.
You can read the press release here.
Paul-Boogerd World Champion in PCM08/Road
Although it's not something that's been mentioned a lot here at PCM.daily, the official World Championship is currently being held, divided into Road, Elimination and Keirin. So far, only the Road Championships have been played, and this ended out with Paul-Boogerd taking the championship. This means that he can now call himself World Champion.
Next up is the championships in elimination which will be held from the 29th of May until the 31st. Several members of PCM.daily are subscribed, so hopefully some of us will be able to set our mark on the championship.
More info can be found on the website. Good luck to everyone :)
PCM09 gold tomorrow?
Good news for everyone eager to play Pro Cycling Manager 2009: The game is, according to our information, going gold tomorrow, meaning that the final countdown can start. The game is still being tested by the 46 community beta testers + in-house beta testers, and hopefully, Cyanide will be able to deliver a good product for us when the game is released on the 18th of June.
There's still no news about the demo, though. |
