Chinese TF2 Knockoff Drafts Tomb Raider Alum To Vouch For It

9:30AM September 29, 2011 | Owen Good

Ahem. Well, back in July, we were introduced to Final Combat, China’s homage to ripoff of Team Fortress 2. The game won’t have a Western release, but for any Chinese who managed to defeat the Baidu censorship and learn of the game’s true origins, we have Troy Horton, formerly of the Tomb Raider series, to vouch for its originality.

EA Realising In-Game Ads Maybe Aren’t The Best Thing Ever

4:30PM December 22, 2010 | Luke Plunkett
