Making History: Gold Edition announced

Muzzy Lane Software today announced that the gold version of its World War II computer strategy game, Making History: The Calm & the Storm, is due out this summer and will be available as a digital download through the company, the Web sites of its distribution partners and traditional retail outlets. The Calm & the Storm Gold is a turn-based strategy game in which players forge the fate of their chosen nation during a time of crisis. The game experience of Making History hopes to appeal to strategy players who enjoy open-ended games like Axis & Allies and Civilization. The goal of the game is not to replay history as it happened, but to make your own. Historical starting points for each scenario set the scene, but from there, players experience completely open-ended gameplay.

Captains keep calm before the storm

The damp weather that has enveloped Lord's for the past week showed no sign of abating on the eve of the first Test, as both England and South Africa were sent scurrying for the indoor nets for the third day in succession. The conditions, however, have done little to dampen the expectations ahead of a series that England's captain, Michael Vaughan, has described as "nearly up there with the Ashes". Given England's modern-day obsession with that precious little urn, praise doesn't get much higher than that.

Let your inner child roam free at this museum

AFTER all the exertions that come with an energy-sapping excursion to Tokyo Disney, the Hara Museum of Contemporary Art offers a veritable oasis of calm in a quiet residential district. It is a smart, small-scale and nicely packaged alternative to some of the more obvious culture-based choices in the Greater Tokyo area, such as the Mori Museum in Roppongi Hills. The Hara is a seriously impressive showcase of contemporary art, but it also has no highbrow pretensions and will appeal to both kids and distracted grown-ups alike.

Nintendo, Activision: Go for the Growing Game Cycle

Take-Two's (TTWO) success with Grand Theft Auto 4 was and is simply breathtaking. The game made over $500 million in its first week. To put that in perspective, the Spider-Man movie, over its lifetime in US box office sales, adjusted for inflation, made $479 million. So in one week, GTA4 surpassed the entire take of Spider-Man, one of the most successful movies of all time. Think about it. In case you're wondering, yes, I've played GTA4 (thanks again for the gift, lovely and video-game enabling wife!). Yes, it's fun. Yes, it's for adults, but you've seen much worse on TV or at the movies. Double standards are a fact, I accept that, but someday we will probably think of GTA4 the same way we think of Elvis' hip movements. Everyone calm down.
