It’s time for another Weekend Wrapper, where we look at some gaming news that didn’t quite make it to MMO Fallout’s floor.

News/Updates:

  • RuneScape’s Road Trip is in full gear, although players might find their quality of life improved via ninja patches.
  • Old School RuneScape patches in slayer partners, new teleport animations, and more.
  • Marvel Heroes is running a Buy One Get One sale on heroes and costumes. Buy one from the in-game store, get a token for a random hero/costume.
  • Warhammer 40k: Eternal Crusade devs discuss melee mode, pistols, and more.
  • Gazillion Entertainment discusses Marvel Heroes post-Ultron updates.
  • Everquest’s Ragefire progression server is now in beta.
  • The Division is being developed by four different studios.
  • Zynga cutting jobs, games, and studios.

Release Spotlight:

  • Black Mesa (Early Access): Currently in early access, Black Mesa is an approved remake of Half Life on the Source engine.
  • Warhammer 40k: Regicide (Early Access): Regicide is a turn based strategy game with very positive reviews.
  • ARMA 3 (Released): Not a new release, but those of you who haven’t picked this game up can play for free on Steam all weekend.
  • Wolfenstein: The Old Blood: $20 gets you a great single player campaign.

Weekend Wrapup: Iron Man MK3 Edition

Another week has come to an end, and that means it’s time to look at the news you may have missed or forgotten. Weekend Wrapup goes over the highlights of the previous week, not all of which were covered by MMO Fallout.

For Marvel Heroes players, today (Saturday the 2nd) is the only day to grab Iron Man’s MK3 armor.

  • Perfect World Entertainment is going privately owned. No more investors, no more shareholder meetings, no more quarterly earnings for me to dive through.
  • Daybreak Game Company shows its support for Project 99. The developers can rest easy without the worry of overzealous lawyers.
  • Goblinworks CEO Ryan Dacey isn’t happy with player recruitment, perhaps showing unrealistic expectations for an MMO that is already charging a subscription fee for early access.
  • Alganon is still receiving support and will launch on Steam in May.
  • The Secret World’s cinematic director is going on to different projects.
