Spong: We are now living in the world of ‘Game 3.0’. I know this, because Phil Harrison said so back in 2007 when introducing LittleBigPlanet to the world. And who wants to doubt Phil Harrison? Five years on, what do we have to show for this bold, new, user-generated content frontier? Well, turns out things haven’t really gone much further than Media Molecule’s innovative platformer, to be honest.
GG3 finds out that Square Enix halted its free game service, Core Online, over a month ago, without really making that decision public. This has axed access to free versions of Tomb Raider and Hitman, but also effectively cancelled their LittleBigPlanet rendition called GameGlobe. No more freebies.
Square Enix and Bigpoint have just announced that the highly anticipated Christmas theme is now available for the innovative MMO, Gameglobe. The latest update for the game provides a variety of Christmas themed items and decorations such as presents, snowmen and even some new vehicles and weapons.
The Mercenaries theme is fully loaded with new enemies, buildings, weapons and hazards including barbed wire, machetes, explosives and shotguns. It even has an 8-barreled minigun! Everything you need to make a game with real firepower!
