Dungeons – The Dark Lord Box Art Unveiled

The more evil you are, the better. Any game that has that motive behind it is a good game in my book. Dungeons – The Dark Lord is Kalypso Media’s new offering, hot of the heels of the recently released Tropico 4. Dungeons – The Dark Lord is a stand-alone sequel to the critically acclaimed Dungeons, and challenges players to create dungeons that will entice and entrap heroes, helping the player capture soul energy to use when battling other Dungeon Lords in both single and multiplayer play.

Here is a quick look at the new box art:

Obviously as a sequel to the critically acclaimed Dungeons, the game will be hosting a bunch of new features along with some returning old ones.

• Four multiplayer modes for up to four players: Deathmatch, King of the Hill, Survival and Piñata
• Entirely new, fully scripted and voiced single-player campaign
• New dungeon setting (ice crystal cave) with new graphics, unique prestige gimmicks and a new boss monster – The Yeti
• Playable bosses in multiplayer modes (Minos, Zombie King, Calypso and Dungeon Lord)
• Various dungeon graphics sets and inventories are now available
• New set of skills specifically for multiplayer modes

Dungeons – The Dark Lord will be available both in retail stores and via digital distribution on 23^rd September and does not require the original Dungeons to play.

Valve Preparing Free To Play Project - Dota 2?

By Tom Magrino, GameSpot

"Valve opened up its digital distribution portal Steam to in-game transactions through the Steam Wallet last September. Following that move, it seemed only natural that the Half-Life creator would bring free to play, Micro transaction supported tiles to Steam, making this week's announcement that Valve would be doing just that no big surprise.

As the next logical progression, Valve appears to be prepping a free-to-play title of its own. Barre De Vie reports this week that Valve has plans to create a microtransaction-based title. According to the French-language gaming site, Valve's marketing head Doug Lombardi reportedly offered a perfunctory "yes" when asked about whether the studio was developing its own project using the business model.

Lombardi reportedly offered no additional information on the mystery title. Valve had not responded to GameSpot's request for comment as of press time.

Though the title could be an unannounced project, one other possible candidate could be DOTA 2. Due for release this year, the game is an official sequel to the Warcraft III mod Defense of the Ancients, which melded the action genre with tower defense gameplay mechanics. A similar project from the original DOTA team, Runic Games' League of Legends, adopted the free-to-play business model upon its release in 2009"
