Just in: Vivendi Universal’s F.E.A.R (First Encounter Assault Recon) has confirmed a date for its worldwide release, on none other than Oct 18th. I tried both the single and multiplayer demos for the game - very scary shit, this.

Also slated for this month is EA’s Black and White 2. I had the privilege of testing the game today - read next month’s Gameaxis for the sordid details.

Of course, happening also next month is our Asian Game Developers Summit, but who are we to compare ourselves against the almighty BLIZZCON! The Hubby and I are contemplating paying our way there (USD120 a pop, not including plane tickets and hotels). Sigh. Anyone going?

If you’re thinking of resting, forget it. October’s going to be KURRAYZEE.
