Ten Minutes Of Batman: Arkham Asylum — In Polish
3:00AM Owen Good | If you don’t know Polish, the narrative gets in the way, but you can watch Bats skulk around Arkham’s grounds and get a feel for the stealth takedowns the game is engineered to deliver. More »
CD Projekt Adds Polish To Age Of Conan
1:20AM Mike Fahey | The company behind the PC RPG The Witcher is taking another stab at the swords and sorcery gig as Funcom announces a fully localised Polish release for Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures to be handled by CD Projekt, due out in the second half of 2008. The Polish developer, publisher, and distributor will handle the localisation and running of the game, including customer service, in-game support, websites and the game’s community, while Funcom handles the back end. Age of Conan will be the first subscription RPG to be fully localised in Polish. Says Michał Kiciński, joint CEO of CD Projekt: “We are committed to providing a new level of game experience through the use of local game masters, community managers and customer support. For years we have waited for the right MMO game to come along and now it is here, in our hands.” CD Projekt has worked with Funcom in the past, localising and distributing The Longest Journey, and also localised the Baldur’s Gate series and Planescape: Torment. I’m liking this company more every minute. More »

But when Polish lads mag CKM called, said they wanted her to frolic with the game, the 360 and its associated peripherals, Ania answered. With gusto. Verve, even.

Sony Opens Four New PlayStation Stores
1:40AM Mike Fahey | It is a day of great celebration in the countries of Greece, Poland, Saudi Arabia, and the Czech Republic, as Sony Computer Entertainment Europe launches for new iterations of the PlayStation Store for these poor, underprivileged areas. “When we launched PLAYSTATION®3 (PS3â„¢) in March, we promised that we would continue to improve the service throughout the SCEE territories and offer more stores to new regions as quickly as possible,” said Chris Stanton-Jones, VP of Distributor Markets for SCEE. “The launch of these four new stores highlights our commitment both to improving our offering and the importance of these increasingly dynamic markets. I would have thought they’d have gotten to this sooner, seeing as Europe is the most important continent, but you can’t complain when four new countries get access to the most awesome rubber duckie game ever created.
