SW: The Old Republic – Trooper Dossier
Merry Christmas!!! Look what the team at Bioware gave us on Christmas!
Always on the front lines of battle against the Empire, Troopers seize every tactical advantage at their disposal to defend the Republic. With combat experience and intense training, Troopers can specialize to increase their battlefield prowess. The Trooper’s Advanced Classes will allow you to customize your Trooper to match your desired playstyle: improve your Trooper’s defensive tactics and capabilities to become a nearly unstoppable Vanguard, or go all-out on offense and become a deadly Commando.
In addition, several other details about the Trooper class are now available:
- Meet one of the Trooper’s more irreverent companions, Tanno Vik, an ex-military demolitions expert who really loves his job.
- Humans aren’t the only species who step up to defend the Republic. The indomitable spirit of the Zabrak has lead many of these aliens into the ranks of the Republic’s finest. Learn more about this proud race on the Zabrak Inhabitants page.
- Troopers are given access to the high-powered Rendili Hyperworks BT-7 Thunderclap, a heavily-armored starship powerhouse upgraded with state-of-the-art tech requisitioned by Republic Special Forces.
- The Trooper’s dedication to the Republic and its ideals fuels a powerful drive for victory, even in the face of overwhelming odds. Watch the Trooper Class Video to see what drives a Trooper – and what they do to those who threaten the Republic.

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2, a sequel to the 2006 action role-playing video game Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, was released September 15, 2009. The game was jointly developed by Vicarious Visions (PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360), n-Space (Nintendo DS, PlayStation 2, and Wii) and Savage Entertainment (PlayStation Portable), and is published by Activision. The game features characters from the Marvel Comics universe and follows elements of the Secret War and Civil War story arcs.
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2 borrows much of its gameplay from its predecessor. The game allows players to select a team of four given characters from a larger pool of heroes and villains; team members are interchangeable and may be swapped during gameplay. General gameplay mechanics are similar to those of the X-Men Legends series. The game is played from an isometric dungeon crawl perspective, supporting up to simultaneous four players.
The game should have been great but something in the execution tanked it for me. The first game was much better.
Hulk Smash!
Bad ass team!
Total Action!

Six Days in Fallujah Cancelled
Atomic Games' "Six Days in Fallujah" has been cancelled by it's distributor Konami. Spokesman Reed Stoven stated,
"We will be making … an official statement in the next few days."
The game was being highly under fire after hitting a nerve because of U.S. soldiers still dying overseas in Afganistan and Iraq. Even though the game was being made alongside marines who fought in Fallujah, this still didn't sway some critics.
It's a shame this game was cancelled as I for one was really looking forward to seeing it in action.
