Latest Steam announcements

• The Bureau: XCOM Declassified is free right now - 1 December 2017

  XCOM’s 2013 squad-based shooter spin-off The Bureau: XCOM Declassified is available free for the next day-and-a-bit from the Humble Store . Our Alec will tell you it’s one of those enjoyable-enough 7/10 perfectly average action games , which makes it not bad as a freebie. Me, my interests are slightly more morbid: I want to see the game which changed form wildly as its development dragged on and ultimately was the final game from BioShock 2 studio 2K Marin before 2K killed them. Also I want to shoot aliens with zapguns. (more…)

• The Bureau: XCOM Declassified is free on the Humble Store - 30 November 2017

  I had some pretty high hopes for The Bureau: XCOM Declassified , although my interest cooled considerably when it was shifted from an X-Files-styled FPS set in the '50s to a linear third-person tactical shooter. It ultimately worked out to be a very average, unremarkable game that came and went with relatively little notice.    If that kept you away from it back when the game was new, then the Humble Store is here with the perfect second chance to give it a try. Until 10 am PT/1 pm ET on December 2, XCOM Declassified is free. Just hit the store page , hit the button, and then check your email for a Steam code.    The free game also includes a coupon for ten percent off a Humble Monthly subscription, a collection of mostly-surprise games (the current Monthly bundle includes H1Z1 and a bunch of others that will be revealed at the end of the month) for $12 per mont…

• Sources: Bureau XCOM, BioShock 2 Dev ‘Essentially’ Closed - 17 October 2013

  Oh boy. It is officially another One Of Those Days. The diabolical layoff stampede beast of certain doom has struck again, this time allegedly laying waste to the whole of The Bureau: XCOM Declassified and BioShock 2 developer 2K Marin. For now, 2K is only officially saying that there have been “staff reductions” at the oft-beleaguered studio, but sources close to the situation told RPS a significantly more dire tale. (more…)

• Drool: Eldritch Is Thief Meets Lovecraft Meets Roguelike - 11 September 2013

  Eldritch just got announced by former BioShock 2/Borderlands developers David and Kyle Pittman, but it’s already rocketed to the top of my list of Exciting Doodads That I Will (Lovingly) Obliterate With My Excitement Lasers. The headline does not lie. The roguelike-like counts games like Thief and Dishonored among its closest inspirations, bringing them together in a clammy, tentacle-slathered Lovecraftian embrace. In short, you can fight, sure, but you can also stealth past enemies, upgrade otherworldly powers, and climb around the environment to discover alternate paths through the harrowing infini-dungeon. Oh Eldritch, let me count the ways. Wait, I already did. You should probably just watch the (refreshingly silly) trailer, then. (more…)
