This week on Player Attack, there's some disappointing Wii U news, Australia prepares for two big shows, NBA Live 13 is axed (again), and as PopCap Games closes its Dublin studios, EA Maxis opens a new location in Finland. There are zombies in Call of Duty: Black Ops II, November 7th is officially renamed N7 Day to coincide with the Mass Effect Trilogy, Steam on Linux officially gets a step closer, Portal 2 gets a killer Collectors' Edition soundtrack, Australians get slugged extra for Grand Theft Auto III, Mists of Pandaria launches, while Rift: Storm Legion hosts a cheeky promotion, and we take another look at iTunes smash Bad Piggies.
Everybody has a voice, but everybody's talking about the same thing. There's a lot of noise out there, but Player Attack aims to cut through the fluff - or, sometimes, fill you in on the fluff you might have missed. We like indie releases, breathtaking concept art, and tie-in book launches. We love cheap thrills, a good soundtrack and finding innovative uses for gaming technology. All of that is reflected on the site, updated each day with stories and details about what is going on in the games industry, always paying attention to stories other outlets ignore.
