Check out the true meaning of insanity in the gameplay demo below.

Words cannot describe the throbbing erection I have for this game.

The Postal series has always been known for pushing the envelope in the gaming industry with Running with Scissors brand of dark humor. Vaseline-covered fists, Ron Jeremy love affairs, and gun-toting MILFs – oh my! If the following trailer doesn’t put Postal 3 on Fox News’ list of  games to blame for murder sprees and public ejaculation - I don’t know what will.

EA has recently launched Origin, a rebranding of their digital distribution service for PC – Now with social networking! Sound familiar? It should. It’s EA’s attempt to take on Steam.

From the site you can download the 34MB app. It has all the basic features you would expect from a service of its nature, but comes up short when compared to the digital distribution juggernaut that is Steam.

Currently Origin has a meager 150 EA titles while Steam only offers gamers a whopping 1,100+ games from various publishers.

Is Origin dead on arrival? Maybe not. The one saving grace may be upcoming Origin exclusives such as the highly anticipated MMO, Star Wars: The Old Republic.

One of the best games ever made, according to Numerous people, finally getting a sequel. Now at E3, there has been some teaser footage…

and some awesome gameplay footage.

I’m sort of excited now.

Head on over to Google and you’ll see the above logo. Clicking once on the “Insert Coin” button allows you to play a game of Google Pac-Man using the arrow keys (or, I’m told, swipes for you iPhone users). Clicking the button a second time allows you or a friend to jump in as Ms. Pac-Man using the WASD control method.

Google’s press release had this to say about the programming of the logo/game:

To pay the homage that Pac-Man deserves as a ground-breaking innovation in the gaming world, Google equipped the doodle with many unique characteristics from the original Pac-Man game. From preserving the distinct personalities of the ghosts Inky (blue: fickle), Blinky (red: chaser), Pinky (pink: ambusher) and Clyde (orange: slow) to re-creating programming bugs from the original game like a “kill screen” on level 256, Sr. User Experience designer at Google, Marcin Wichary, along with Google doodler, Ryan Germick, remained as faithful to the spirit of Pac-Man as possible.

So enjoy Google Pac-Man while you can folks, it’ll be nothing more than a memory tomorrow.

Rather than pre-scripted tackling animations, like in all football games to date, every tackle in the game is completely real-time, resulting in a more realistic looking hit. However, in order to do that, NaturalMotion had to make every player in the game a completely realistic human analog, using natural movement of real humans to simulate that same movement in the game. But in an era where even scripted scenes and motion capture looks awkward, how does NaturalMotion intend to make, well…natural motion? (Un)natural selection.

Making a full human skeleton, and giving it full musculature, the NaturalMotion team set about tweaking those muscles in such a way as to create a walking motion. 100 different variations were created, and then tested. The 5 that walked the longest were deemed the most successful, and were then each copied 20 times. The team then altered subset nerves connections in variations that would occur naturally in a subsequent generation in a biological species. They tested the walking motion again, and again took the 5 best. Over the course of a few generations, NaturalMotion was able to force digital evolution on the skeletons, creating walking motions more natural than any motion capture or script could do, and leaving it completely dynamic.

Oh, and the really cool part of this whole experiment? This was in 2001. Since then, the (r)evolutionary process has been expanded to balancing, walking, environmental interaction, and yes, playing sports. This also isn’t limited to humans, but any animal that can be conceived of. So long as they can create it in a 3D environment, the evolution process can be replicated until even a create with four legs and 2 knees apiece can move in a believable way.

So what does this mean for us right now? It means that come May 18, we’ll be playing the most dynamic sports game, and maybe any game, ever created. Oh, and by this time next year, EA probably will have bought NaturalMotion. Just sayin’.

We all knew this day would come, and soon, but this was done fairly quickly. This new hack requires users to download and install modified executable that will completely remove the DRM and allow for play without the constant connection to Ubisoft servers.

Skid Row even left a message for Ubisoft

“Thank you Ubisoft, this was quiete [sic] a challenge for us, but nothing stops the leading force from doing what we do. Next time focus on the game and not on the DRM. It was probably horrible for all legit users. We just make their lifes [sic] easier.”

A bit of a harsh tone for a group of hackers who have taken a few extra precautions to avoid reverse engineering of their methods for beating this new DRM, but it’s well deserved for beating what most saw as a terrible idea.

Although this is not the first hack to come through the works, it seems to contain the full game as well. We here at The Gamerz Zone don’t condone pirating, but we can’t help but enjoy the backlash from gamers who oppose the DRM that has problems that players have absolutely no control over. Remember Ubisoft, we reap what we sow.

Mutations is a special set of gametypes that will, from week to week, be rotated out. These gametypes will consist of new ways to play, such as equipping the survivors with chainsaws with unlimited gas. Currently, there are more than 20different mutations already planned.

A lot of DLC comes through with nothing more than a new appearance, like Battlefield Bad Company 2′s new multiplayer skins due out tomorrow, but once again, Valve shows how to do DLC right: giving the players something worth the money.
