If you thought we've heard the last of Erik Estavillo a.k.a. the banned Resistance player and lawsuit spammer, then you thought wrong my friends. The latest development in his string of legal proceedings brings another big name into the mix. To further his case against Microsoft and the RROD, not just anyone would do - not Major Nelson, not Don Mattrick, not Steve Ballmer - he goes straight up to the big cheese himself: Bill Gates.

To help make his case, he turns to Depeche Mode's Martin Lee Gore and Winona Ryder - you'll know how that "makes sense" in just a bit.

China's fight against online games doesn't seem to be done with just World of Warcraft.

What's more, they have to hire specialized staff to monitor the content of the game.

The date for Star Trek: Online's open beta has now been announced and confirmed by Cryptic Studios to be happening early next year. So if you missed your chance in the closed beta, there shouldn't be any reason for you to miss out on this opportunity now.

I admit, I only found out about the Shin Megami Tensei: Imagine Online MMORPG when reader megatenfan mentioned it on Twitter last week. Now seems to be a good time to get into the free-to-play MMO, though, as Aeria Games has just rolled out a new content update.

ATI's updated list of DirectX 11-capable games has confirmed that the PC version of DICE's upcoming Battlefield: Bad Company 2 will be rocking support for the API.
