Command Prompt 10: DayZ Standalone Version Details

In an attempt to make sense of the chaos we call PC gaming, IGN's Anthony Gallegos and Charles Onyett put together a video show called Command Prompt. Barring any disastrous events or prolonged spells of acute laziness, new episodes will appear every week showing off three PC games.

This week we had DayZ creator Dean Hall in the office to talk about the upcoming standalone version of his popular zombie mod as well as potential console versions. It was supposed to be a single segment, but we wound up talking for a while. An hour, to be exact. So it sort of became the whole show this week, preceded by a very brief look at Guild Wars 2.

Guild Wars 2

ArenaNet's MMO is finally live, and so far it's pretty amazing. We take a quick look at it here, but if you want to know more, check out the review in progress.

DayZ

We play DayZ with Dean Hall and cover pretty much everything that's going on with the standalone version and console versions.

Command Prompt 6: Tribes, Awesomenauts and Thirty Flights of Loving

In an attempt to make sense of the chaotic mass we call PC gaming, IGN's Anthony Gallegos and Charles Onyett put together a video show called Command Prompt. Barring any disastrous events or prolonged spells of acute laziness, new episodes will appear every week showing off three PC games.

For the sixth episode we're joined by Xbox Associate Editor Mitch Dyer as we take a look at Hi-Rez Studio's awesomely fast shooter Tribes: Ascend, learn what it's like to be beat down in a 2D MOBA in Awesomenauts and then explore the bizarre world of Thirty Flights of Loving.

Tribes: Ascend

Hi-Rez Studios manages to make a unique feeling first-person shooter with Tribes: Ascend's ridiculously fast and skill-demanding combat.

Awesomenauts

Who knew it was possible? Ronimo Games manages to take the MOBA or DoTA-style gameplay of League of Legends and Dota 2 and implement it in a 2D environment.

Thirty Flights of Loving

Blendo Games, creators of Gravity Bone and Atom Zombie Smasher follow up with a haunting and bizarre story that takes only minutes to play.

Command Prompt Ep. 4: Anna, World of Warplanes and Natural Selection 2

In an attempt to make sense of the chaotic mass we call PC gaming, IGN's Anthony Gallegos and Charles Onyett put together a video show called Command Prompt. Barring any disastrous events or prolonged spells of acute laziness, new episodes will appear every week showing off three PC games.

This time we check out Anna, a first-person adventure game about investigating a creepy house which may or may not have a sizeable game-breaking hole in one of its walls. We also tried to not embarrass ourselves playing in the World of Warplanes beta, and looked at the monsters versus Marines insanity of Natural Selection 2.

Anna

Games mostly concerned with creating mood and engaging your mind seem to be having a far bigger impact these days. Anna is a clunky but creepy adventure.

World of Warplanes

Wargaming.net's follow up to the incredibly popular World of Tanks, World of Warplanes puts the developer's characteristic fast, fun team-based competitive play in the air.

Natural Selection 2

Unknown Worlds' full version of the popular Half-Life mod pits Marines against mutating beasts in a mix of first-person shooting and real-time strategy gameplay.
