While the FIFA World Cup has reached its semi-finals stage in South Africa, EA has announced that their manager version of FIFA, FIFA Manager 11, will be out this Fall. FIFA Manager 11 is the 10th edition of the franchise, and according to EA, it will be simpler to pick-up and play for newer users.

Blizzard has revealed that their upcoming and anticipated StarCraft 2 will support 3D via a post-release patch, for Nvidia-based graphics cards that support 3D. Of course, you’ll need a compatible Nvidia card, a monitor, and a set of 3D glasses.
EA has revealed that the new DLC for Skate 3, Hawaiian Dream, will be out tomorrow. Luckily, there’s a nice trailer to showcase the new content.
Raven Software, makers of last year’s (somewhat)flop Wolfenstein, are back this year with Singularity, a first person shooter with a few new twists, chief of which is a time manipulating device.
Singularity isn’t one of the complex, serious FPS games, with an intricate storyline and deep characters. Rather, it’s a run-and-gun game which doesn’t take it self too seriously, and above all, tries to be fun. And for the most part, Singularity succeeds. It offers high paced gameplay and some cool puzzles, especially with the use of the Time Manipulating Device, the main selling point of the game. You can use the TMP to quickly age enemies into dust, or create a bubble where time slows down, giving you plenty of time to take out enemies. There’s lots of of weapons to shoot as well, and they’re pretty varied and each have unique features, like guiding your bullets.
The action is pretty solid, although there are some bugs here and there, and the AI isn’t especially smart. It’s good enough for head-on battles, but once you start flanking and thinking creatively, the AI can’t keep up. Another disappointing thing about the game are the visuals, which looks somewhat date, despite the use of the Unreal Engine 3. Textures are low-res, shadows are jaggy and lighting feels pale and doesn’t add much value. Having said that, there are some interesting set pieces in the game, and the boss fights are well thought-out, albeit not as challenging as they could have been.
The multiplayer part only has two modes, but despite only two, they’re diverse and offer the use of the great features from the single-player part — like the time manipulating device. Overall, it’s a great game for those who don’t expect anything from their shooters but to be quick and fun. But we’d love if the new features of the game were used better and more, and the visuals really need to step up a notch. Hopefully that’s enough for a sequel, as there’s plenty of great stuff to build on.
The Good:
Great new weapons and features
Fast paced gameplay
Interesting multiplayer
The Bad:
Too many missed opportunities
Dated visuals
Quite a few bugs
Overall score: 7/10
