http://multiplayerblog.mtv.com/2011/08/18/serious-sam-3-bfe-preview/
"Serious Sam 3: BFE" feels like everything "Duke Nukem Forever" should have been. It's old-school without completely disregarding the need to update to today's standards.

Thanks for everyone that came out, see you next month.

BF3 is not on steam and I am not a Call of Duty fan, might get mw3 if the LAN support is decent.
-
GTA V
For the record: We don't have a release date, or release window, nor do we know what systems this will be for, but if I had to guess, I'd say the PS3 and the 360 are pretty likely.

I've only come across 2 issues so far... it initially crashed back to the desktop on me when I 1st launched the game. To fix this, I simply closed off Steam & then ran the game using the shortcut for it, which forced Steam to run & that corrected it. The other issue is that I can't pause the game, I push the ESC key & the menu shows up but U can clearly see the game still running in the background. These issues are supposed to be addressed in the upcoming patch.
Other than those 2 issues, the game runs great for me & I'm enjoying it. It'll be a fun game to play @ a lan party.

It is basically a L4D bank robbery... ...of course you can not pause a game based on time and multiplayer. I am really surprised Valve has not come up with every 4 player co-op or in this case it would work as a good 8 player co-op with bigger heists.

I should be able to make it, it's just that November & December are usually bad months for me & LANS. I plan on bringing my son with me & maybe 2 other friends from work, Smot Poker & Death Adder.

ok they are free, you $50! Just cuz you are a friend!

Payday: The Heist is a phenomenal game backed up by an engaging team of developers who have been really busy helping out people on the forums with whatever issues they come across.
The game may run smoothly for you since there are really few issues that are needed to be addressed and with another patch, most of the things will get fixed but, if you still can’t resolve any of the issues below, you can try these workarounds.

Xbox 360 outsells PS3 despite higher average price
http://www.shacknews.com/article/70640/xbox-360-outsells-ps3-despite-higher-price
The analysis from Gamasutra shows that while the PlayStation 3 and Wii both dropped in average retail prices (by roughly $40 and $8 respectively) between July and September, the Xbox 360 actually rose from $280 to $306. This is $35 higher than the PS3's average price of $271 as of September. "Compared to its closest competitor, Microsoft is selling 12,000 more systems per week and at a $35 higher price," the analysis concludes.
The average price is determined by how many of each model is sold at retail, and Microsoft has an advantage in that department. While Microsoft offers a lower-priced model at $199, its Kinect bundles at $299 and $399 have sold well. Given the popularity of the peripheral, these are probably responsible for driving up the average unit price.
American gamers are not only willing to pay more for Xbox 360, but they're also willing to pay for Xbox Live, which adds an annual $60 fee on top of console ownership.
