Quake 4 Review
A sequel to Quake II (not Quake III), Quake 4 provides a beautifully fluid and engaging first-person-shooter experience. It opens with a cinematic view of Earth launching a second attack against the Strogg planet. You play as Matthew Kane, a member of the elite Rhino Squad. Your landing craft gets shot down, and you're separated from your unit. It's up to you to shred the evil alien hordes and fragging friends. PC-Mag

World of Warcraft: 4.5 million copies of EULA-compliant spyware
I recently performed a rather long reversing session on a piece of software written by Blizzard Entertainment, yes - the ones who made Warcraft, and World of Warcraft (which has 4.5 million+ players now, apparently). This software is known as the 'warden client' - its written like shellcode in that it's position independant.
Rag Doll Kung Fu Review
The Kung Fu game market is hardly large, so when one does pop up, it's noticable. Kung Fu games also have their own uniqueness to them, but here's a game that is even more so. This is a creation of Mark Healey, an indepentant game developer. Many people relate independant games to being sub-par or boring, but this is one game to tell them otherwise.

Battlefield 2 Patch 1.03 Problems
I'm aware that a whole bunch of you have had various problems, both with installing the 1.03 BF2 patch, as well problems playing BF2 after the patch. Unfortunately there aren't many solutions other the ones I've linked to on page 3 of my guide. More recently The Inquirer has raised concerns about the patch and CD Key Issues.

Day of Defeat: Source Review
Day of Defeat: Source. $20, 4 maps, HDR lighting, fast gameplay... but very closely based on a free mod. How to decide? Jakub's got his thoughts, as well as 99 yummy screenshots full of blood and gore and LMG camping.

Unlock a Starfox Ship in Zelda Game
Think of it as Hot Coffee, but without all of the lawsuits and sex. Looks like some goofy Nintendo programmers slipped an Arwing fighter from Starfox into Ocarina of Time.
