Gaijin Entertainment Assaults the Senses with Stunning Commemorative War Thunder Live Action Trailer

Commemorative Trailer Dedicated to Heroes of the Russian Front during WW2.

Gaijin Entertainment has released a brand new commemorative live action trailer for its WWII MMO mega-hit War Thunder. Titled “Victory is Ours” the trailer commemorates the heroism of all the participants of the Great Patriotic War and got its worldwide debut at the Russian Comic Con event on Oct 4th.

The video emphasizes how important the combined actions of each individual were for overall victory, whether dogfighting with the enemy in the skies as a pilot, or engaging in heated ground based combat as a tanker to support ground troops. In October 1941, the German Army Group Centre advanced on Moscow. Only after six months of intense fighting was the enemy able to be repelled from the capital. In the war torn fields near Moscow the first major defeat of the German army in World War II occurred against the might of its armed forces, and on 9th of May 1945, after the Battle of Berlin, Germany surrendered.

DCS: Su-27 for DCS World is Now Available for Pre-Purchase!

The Fighter Collection and Eagle Dynamics are pleased to announce that Su-27 for DCS World is now available as a pre-purchase from the DCS e-shop at: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/shop/. The pre-purchase provides both a 20% discount off the retail price and access to the Open Beta coming later on November 15th, 2014.

The Su-27, NATO codename Flanker, is one of the pillars of modern-day Russian combat aviation. Built to counter the American F-15 Eagle, the Flanker is a twin-engine, supersonic, highly manoeuvrable air superiority fighter. The Flanker is equally capable of engaging targets well beyond visual range as it is in a dogfight given its amazing slow speed and high angle attack manoeuvrability. Using its radar and stealthy infrared search and track system, the Flanker can employ a wide array of radar and infrared guided missiles. The Flanker also includes a helmet-mounted sight that allows you to simply look at a target to lock it up! In addition to its powerful air-to-air capabilities, the Flanker can also be armed with bombs and unguided rockets to fulfil a secondary ground attack role.

Su-27 for DCS World focuses on ease of use without complicated cockpit interaction, significantly reducing the learning curve. As such, Su-27 for DCS World features keyboard and joystick cockpit commands with a focus on the most mission critical of cockpit systems.

Su-27 for DCS World will sell for $9.99 at November 15th. Pre Purchase now for $7.99 and save 20%!

Note: This will be a free update to owners of Flaming Cliffs 3!

Snake People with a Plan: Wrath of the Nagas Expansion Coming for Warlock 2

New content and Hexagonal Hexing Hexstasy Coming to Fantasy Wargame

Warlock 2: The Exiled, the fantastical turn-based strategy wargame from Ino-Co Plus and Paradox Interactive will soon release its first expansion: “Wrath of the Nagas.” Featuring a new game mode centered around the new-game creatures, a pair of new mages to lead that new race, and a new game campaign centered around that new race and their new mages, Wrath of the Nagas will add more magical mayhem to Warlock 2 than is probably safe. The new expansion will be available later this year on Windows PC from digital retailers worldwide, but only on this particular shard of Earth.

Wrath of the Nagas introduce the ancient Naga race to the worlds of Warlock 2 – a sinister people who have lurked outside the realm of Ardania since time immemorial, waiting for their chance to break back through the barriers and unmake reality. By purchasing the Wrath of the Nagas expansion, you have given them that chance. Way to go.

Cooler Master Hyper D92 CPU Cooler Review

By Ron Perillo @ Modders Inc.

Design-wise, the Cooler Master Hyper D92 cooler is a re-engineered Hyper N520, improving upon its design based on current system building concerns such as better RAM heatspreader clearance compatibility, better looks and improved efficiency. The direct-touch design has worked well for Cooler Master’s mainstream CPU cooler offerings so the Hyper D92 utilizes it as well. The Hyper N520’s signature offset fan design remains to compensate for the airflow deadzone, albeit using superior 92mm Cooler Master rifle-bearing Xtra Flow PWM fans and the mounting design has also been improved for convenience.
