I Wish We Had One Of Them Doomsday Machines

by Rainier on Sept. 22, 2011 @ 12:00 a.m. PDT | Filed under MOTD

I've been struggling with my longtime RSS feed reader. For some reason, it has stopped working and only intermittently gives me updates. It also deleted a bunch of links I had stored up, and it just crapped out on me in general.

Tomorrow is our weekly Free Code Friday, and this time around, we are handing out From Dust PSN codes. If you haven't checked it out yet, be sure to keep an eye on our Twitter feed.

I also wanted to address our Space Marine PS3 review. Having played it through on PC and even jumping into some online games, it baffles me that THQ is not fixing the PS3 version. Its multiplayer has been broken since launch, and we've waited over two weeks to see if there would be a patch to rectify the issue, but alas, it did not arrive by review time. That's why it received such a low score in comparison to the Xbox 360 version.
