Just a very quick late night post to tell you that Steam has another sale on at http://store.steampowered.com

At the time of writing they are flogging Grand Theft Auto IV for only £4.99 which is a bit of a bargain if you have a PC that can handle it.

Keep that page bookmarked too as the offers are changing every day.

To celebrate its anniversary Super Stardust HD is on offer on the Playstation Store for £1.59 (1.99 euros). You shouldn’t need any convincing to snap it up at this price as it’s one of the best shooters on the Playstation 3. Be quick though, the deal ends soon!

In other news (always wanted to say that!), DICE and EA’s free online cartoon-style first person shooter – Battlefield Heroes, has finally come out of beta. I’ve had a quick blast on it and it’s well worth a download. You will need real money if you want to customise your character to any extent but, so far, it seems perfectly possible to play the game and not need to spend a penny.

Just get to http://www.battlefieldheroes.com/ and sign up.

A bit of advice: Make sure you register an account and log into your account BEFORE you click the “Play Now” button and launch the Battlefield Heroes updater. (Initially I didn’t log in and ended up getting annoying “Build not found” errors whenever I tried to play the game. Very frustrating for an hour or so until I googled the solution!)

I’ve just received an invite to the Twelve Sky 2 Closed Beta from Aeria Games. (I make that twenty-four skies myself!)

It’s described as a martial arts MMORPG and as the system requirements aren’t too steep so I thought that I’d give it a try.

The client is a relatively chunky 1.9GB… So I’ve still got three hours of downloading to do before I get a look.

If you want to sign up yourself, go to http://12-sky2.aeriagames.com/

Any regular Guild Wars player will know you are constantly running out of space in storage. So you’ll be pleased to know that ArenaNet/NCsoft are offering you a free extra pane of storage as part of the Guild Wars 4th Anniversary celebrations.

The only catch is to get it you need to register an NCsoft account which is a bit of a faff but it’s all free. You’ve only got until 31st May 2009 to claim it though so hurry!

All the details you need can be found on http://eu.guildwars.com/support/article/free_storage_pane/
