Wizards not renewing Star Wars licence

Posted in Miniature Games, Posterous, Star Wars, Star Wars Minis on January 28th, 2010 by The Staff @ CAVGames

Wizards of the Coast has announced that they will not be renewing their licence with LucasArts for the Star Wars games and RPG.

From their website:?

There have been several questions lately regarding the future of the Star Wars Miniatures and Roleplaying Game and until now I haven’t had definitive answers to give you. After a lengthy evaluation, Wizards of the Coast has decided not to renew the Star Wars license with Lucasfilm. We’ve had a long and fantastic run, but with the economic downturn, we have made the tough decision to discontinue our Star Wars lines.

Notes: After the news with Lego & Lucas, ending of the DCI with SWM this was fortold by those at CAV, now we just wait on are there anymore products in the Que?

Mass Effect 2 : Arrives Today!

Posted in Posterous, Video Games, XBox 360 on January 26th, 2010 by The Staff @ CAVGames

Mass Effect 2 : Arrives by FedEx Today! At CAVGames

Quoted Per GamesCom

Mass Effect 2 has new combat mechanics, which developer BioWare claims is its biggest improvement.

“One of the biggest improvements we’ve made to the game is the combat,” “We’re not trying to make this an action game–it’s still an RPG. But the combat is much better than before.” While the combat wasn’t too bad in the original game, it’s certainly more refined in Mass Effect 2. Running and taking cover with the A button will be familiar to Gears of War fans, while swapping weapons by holding the left bumper and moving the left stick is very intuitive. You can still order your squad members to attack by using the D pad, but everything feels more responsive than before, and the allied AI is smarter. The heat-seeking missiles also help, as they curve around objects and other cover to take out their targets.
