No Heroes Allowed! is the latest in the Badman franchise. A series of Dungeon Strategy games where you play the God of Destruction, summoned by the Evil Overlord Badman to dig a dungeon full of monsters to destroy the invading heroes, and help Badman conquer the known world! MWHAAHAA!

If you have played What Did I Do to Deserve This, My Lord!? and What Did I Do to Deserve This, My Lord 2!? then you are already aware of all the ‘dungeoneering’ fun this game brings, and will truly “dig” the new features such as strategically utilizing water in your dungeons to create pools that spawn new monsters and disrupt the heroes!

No Heroes Allowed!: New World No Heroes Allowed!: Gameplay

And that is just the beginning! No Heroes Allowed! not only has your main story mode where you help Badman conquer a brand new world across 33 stages, but additionally Dungeon-A-Day mode will offer you 100 daily challenges to hone your dungeoneering skills. Also for the first time in the Badman series, players will have the opportunity to experience multiplayer! The new Co-Op mode, Badman & Badmella allows you to join forces with one of your friends to create a dastardly dungeon full of monsters ready to take out those pesky heroes! Who is Badmella? you ask, she is none other than Badman’s daughter and heir to his evil empire.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Ultimate Edition is Out Now on PS3

Thu, Sep 2, 2010

Today DICE Jr. Product Manager [b]Tommy Rydling[/b] has officially announced that Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Ultimate Edition is out for Sony's PS3 entertainment system.

To quote: You get a ton of stuff in [url=http://www.battlefieldbadcompany2.com/ultimate-edition]Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Ultimate Edition[/url], with Onslaught Mode, Limited Edition Unlocks and the full version of Battlefield 1943 - DICE's PSN WWII shooter from the summer of 2009, now making its first appearance in retail stores.

As you may or may not remember, when Battlefield 1943 first launched, DICE ran the Coral Sea Challenge. As soon as the gamers on PS3 reached 43 million kills collectively, a fourth map would unlock.

For a latecomer to the party, it's still a blast to soar through the skies on the Coral Sea bonus map, even though I missed out on contributing in the challenge.

Back to the beautiful Pacific in Battlefield 1943.

Back then, it took the PS3 gamers only eight days to reach the 43 m

SCEE's Sponsorship & Events Manager [b]Carl Christopher-Ansari[/b] has shared a video announcement today on their new PlayStation Game Runners and Next Level Street Gaming project, as follows:

[url=http://www.facebook.com/playstationgamerunners]PlayStation Game Runners[/url] is an experimental project where PlayStation, members of the public and young people from diverse backgrounds come together to create social games. We at PlayStation believe that the best games are played as a group.

The project has been developed by PlayStation and Hide & Seek with a team of eight initial Game Runners who have been picked to train as game designers and work to make the games relevant.

There are three games in development: Flags, Blocks and Hoops. The games are in prototype stage and there will be a series of playtests to develop the games.

Top Gun is Coming to the European PlayStation Store

Thu, Sep 2, 2010

0 Comments

A few weeks back Top Gun [url=http://www.ps3news.com/PS3-Online/top-gun-for-ps3-detailed-coming-soon-on-playstation-store/]arrived[/url] on the US PSN store, and today Senior Games Designer [b]Ollie Barder[/b] at Doublesix has confirmed it's also on the way to the European PlayStation Store on September 8, 2010.

To quote: The studio has been really busy with Top Gun - a new air combat game for the PlayStation Network based on the classic 80′s film.

Needless to say it's been a lot of fun making this, as screeching across a blue sky in a F-14 Tomcat never gets old.

For those curious as to how we've tackled the game we went down a more arcade focused route for air combat, more so than other games in the genre. So instead of having to micromanage finite ammunition, stalling and the vagaries of an overly complex flight model, we've streamlined all that down and removed as many restrictions as we possibly could.

The reasoning behind this was so that the player would be able to

Out Now on PS3: Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Ultimate Edition

Thu, Sep 2, 2010

0 Comments

Hi Battlefield fans! Don’t tell anyone, but I didn’t pick up Battlefield 1943 when it originally launched. For a DICE employee, that’s perhaps best kept a secret. The good news is: I have the perfect excuse to catch up on it now.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Ultimate Edition for PS3

More Battlefield goodness than you can shake an RPG at.

You get a ton of stuff in Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Ultimate Edition, with Onslaught Mode, Limited Edition Unlocks and the full version of Battlefield 1943 — DICE’s PSN WWII shooter from the summer of 2009, now making its first appearance in retail stores.

As you may or may not remember, when Battlefield 1943 first launched, DICE ran the Coral Sea Challenge. As soon as the gamers on PS3 reached 43 million kills collectively, a fourth map would unlock. For a latecomer to the party, it’s still a blast to soar through the skies on the Coral Sea bonus map, even though I missed out on contributing in the challenge.

Battlefield 1943 for PS3

Back to the beautiful Pacific in Battlefield 1943.

Back then, it took the PS3 gamers only eight days to reach the 43 million kill limit! Which got me wondering: What has happened since then in the Battlefield universe, numbers-wise? So I dove into the official PS3 stats for Bad Company 2 (released only six months ago) and came back with the following impressive figures:

Total body count: 2,551,119,430
Total time played (hours): 61,391,471 (that’s 7,000 years!)
Total dog tags taken: 76,712,440
Number of deaths by defibrillator: 828,069

Turns out a medic can use his tools for more offensive duties than reviving his comrades! Of course, by the time you read this, these numbers will have increased even further. So make sure to stop by and check out the global stats, as well as your individual, detailed battle records.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Ultimate Edition is out now for $59.95. If you want to get the skinny on everything happening in the Battlefield community, stay tuned on Twitter @OfficalBFBC2 and battlefield.com.

Oh, and as always, remember to keep your squad tight.
