From now until October 31, 2010, Matrix Gamesis having a sale on three of its best titles, John Tiller’s Campaign Series, Steel Panthers: World at War – General’s Edition and Norm Kroger’s Operational Art of War III, with prices reduced from 25% to 50%. If everyone was a wargamer, these games as a whole offer something for everyone.

Although Matrix is calling this a Fall sale, they’re only running it a week, ending it on Halloween. I guess if you’re looking for something to do besides answer the door and hand out candy, these games give a good reason to turn off the porch light and hide in the computer room. That said, these are all turn-based games, so it’s not like you’ll get shot or something if you get up to answer the call of costumed candy-beggars.

My Little Pony would run away from these equine harbingers of death and destruction. Rockstar has introduced the four legendary creatures that John Marston can ride in Red Dead Redemption’s upcoming Undead Nightmare DLC.

For generations, America has been seen as one of the biggest superpowers in the world. We have the strongest military, the most wealth and have been a beacon of hope for many people immigrating onto our shores. In the videogame world, America has been the victor in war or seen as the world’s last hope. But now that is changing. Recent and future games present the United States as defeated, in disarray and at the mercy of another nation. It’s a change of pace that I for one, greatly enjoy.

PC game publisher Matrix Games has announced the late 2010 release of Panzer Command: Ostfront, the latest in the Panzer Command series of war games. This incredibly flexible series of 3D turn-based games based on World War II tank battles handles operations from the smallest of scales up to full warfare campaigns.

Ostfront will be available free to owners of Panzer Command: Kharkov, as it replaces that and Panzer Command: Winterstorm, including the content of both as well as new battles and many bug fixes and rules tweaks.

We’ve been hearing about R.U.S.E. for quite some time now. This real time strategy game from Ubisoft caused a splash in 2009 when it was shown being played on a giant Microsoft touch screen table. Though that is still possible if you have thousands of dollars to spend, normal people can try the game out for free this weekend on Steam.

Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning is going to be receiving its first expansion soon – in March, 2009, if you want to be specific. Call to Arms is going to be a free, live expansion that will be gradually rolled out thoughout March, April May and June, 2009.

The first portion of the Call to Arms expansion, called Call to Arms: Bitter Rivals, starts in March 2009. It introduces two new careers, a new event and a new realm versus realm (RvR) scenario. Players will be able to create Orc Choppas and Dwarf Slayers, take part in the Bitter Rival Live event or participate in the Twisting Tower scenario…

On September 18, 2008, the servers for Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning (WAR) went live in North America, Europe and the Oceanic territories. Now that the game is out of the beta stage and is open for public consumption, players are invited to join in the mayhem.

WAR is the grim MMORPG version of a gothic world that has literally gone to Hell. Some parts of the world may have once been a paradise. However, wars between anyone who can fight and the forces of Chaos have essentially put the world on a path raging toward ruin.

As shown to those who participated in the beta version of WAR, it will be played like a mixture of..

Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning (WAR) left the beta stage today and is now open to the public. Just before WAR’s official opening to the public, The Black Library, publishers of all fiction Warhammer and Warhammer 40k related, released a new novel titled Empire in Chaos.

While the game is supposed to be a condensed visual representation of the franchise’s rich lore and play style, Empire in Chaos looks to answer questions concerning events in the game…

In 2001 Tom Clancy put his name to an incredible tactical squad-based first-person shooter called Ghost Recon, a franchise that contains almost prophetic parallels with current events.

In the original Ghost Recon game, set in 2008, Russia is taken over by ultra-nationalists who want to rebuild the might of the former Soviet Union by re-acquiring several Eastern European states. The reasoning for the Russian spread in the game could just be to regain the former territory of the Soviet Union or to do as Russian President Dmitry Medvedev told Telegraph when he said he would “protect the lives and dignity of Russian citizens wherever they are located.” Even more coincidental, the game opens in the former-Soviet state of Georgia…
