Monolith Productions has released a new character for Guradians for Middle-Earth: Kili the Dwarf. His official character bio, on the official Guardians of Middle-Earth site, states:
“While other Dwarves might rely on their stout frames to bring brute strength to battle, Kili’s strength lies in his masterful skill with a bow. Brother to Fili and one of the youngest members of Thorin Oakenshield’s company, his exceptional eyesight and stealth abilities aid him well as a scout and hunter for the group. Though unlike Elven bowmen, Kili’s arrows land with great impact, rather than striking with exceptional finesse.”
Kili is available for download on XBLA and PSN. Find out more on the official site, or read the review.

Players of the Shootmania Storm game from Ubisoft and Nadeo will have noticed that a new gametype has been added to the multiplayer shooter. This new game mode is called Combo and it has it’s own unique way of being played. In addition to this game mode is a new weapon called the Arrow, it looks cool.
In Combo, players are paired into teams of two and team mates must work together to kill their opponents in synchronisation. What makes this gametype interesting is that no only must players frag both opponents at the same time, but they are also allowed to switch between weapons and collect them as pickups. This is different from the usual Shootmania gametype as weapons are usually entirely dependent on which tiles it is that you’re standing on.
The Arrow is the newest weapon to Shootmania Storm. It is a ballistic weapon that looks like it has a bit of a curve to it. This weapon is cool because when it hits a target or target location, it unleases an area of effect attack, damaging nearby opponents.

It is scheduled to begin by the end of the month.
Your feedback will be integral – the driving force in guiding the evolution of the Ghost Recon Online experience. Ubisoft Singapore want players to try out beta versions of maps that are still under development and share their feedback of these maps through dedicated Ghost Recon OnlineProject TOPOS forum channels, which will in turn help guide the developers on the Ubisoft Singapore development team in further improving the design and quality of these maps for eventual release.

“Our community plays an important role in shaping how Ghost Recon Online will evolve. With Project TOPOS, we have another platform with which to closely involve our community in shaping not only the design of the maps that we have planned, but more importantly, what they want their Ghost Recon Online experience to be.”
To participate in the Project TOPOS program, Ghost Recon Online players will need to be a part of a clan. There will be three Project TOPOS beta maps at the outset, and these will be available in the “Clan Match” section of Ghost Recon Online.Play the game for free right now at www.GhostReconOnline.com.
