The first Battlefield Heroes trailer is out, half promotional material, half gameplay. I'm kinda digging the visual style, but the gameplay footage isn't grabbing me. It's free though, so it'll be easy enough to play test ^_^
This is a pretty nifty tool. The Adventure Game Studio, or AGS, is what was used to remake Kings Quest I and II, and III. There are also people making all kinds of new adventure games for this.
I want to try out some of these indie games. I also think this could be a fun tool to make a game with...

The synopsis for Petz Catz 2:
The cats have finally captured a wolf, Ivlet, that has been harassing them for a long time. The source of the cats' power is a magic top hat, but due to the easy duping of two young kittens, Ivlet gains control of the mystic relic.
CDProjekt just announced plans to release a new "Enhanced" version of the Witcher, it'll be in retail stores later this year. The idea is to release a completely polished game, fixing complaints made by players and reviewers alike.
You can read about it here at ign: The Witcher, Enhanced Edition
I'll admit I didn't read the entire article, but here's my problem. They didn't mention any plans on a patch for those who've already bought the game. So they're fixing the Witcher, but if you already purchased it, you're screwed.
That's one messed up business model. So for the moment I'll assume my tired lazy ass just didn't catch the mention of a patch and they don't hate me.
I always liked the Roberta Williams King's Quest series. Pretty good classic adventure titles.
Infamous Adventures is proud to present a remake of Roberta William's classic 1986 hit, King's Quest III. Remade in colours and style to match Sierra's Kings Quest 5 and Kings Quest 6 releases, and using the AGS engine by Chris Jones, IA promises an enjoyable remake of this landmark game.
