New York, September 5th-

There is a new title update available for Marathon: Durandal, run the game while connected to Xbox Live to get this update.

What's new?

- Added Survival mode to the Demo. Check out 6 minutes of intense survival carnage, this will give you a taste of the larger survival game in the full version.

- Tired of swimming for your weapons when you die in lava in Cooperative mode? Now when you (or a team mate) dies in Lava or Alien Goo, their weapons will drop safely on the ledge next to them, no more sunburn!

- Are you an Old School gamer who uses Old School controls? We added a new and 7th controller set which will give you Legacy controls.

- Added more sensitivity settings to give you even tighter control.

- Older games like Marathon, use a very narrow view angle (field of view) while new games use a much wider view. Now you can toggle between the original Marathon field of view (Classic View Angle) and a new modern view angle.

- Added a "player disconnected" message for the host in multiplayer games.

- Fixed a bug where quick match wouldn't find available matches.

- Fixed a bug where the host would not post Bob kills to the Bob-B-Q leaderboard in coop games.

New York -- September 4, 2007 -- Freeverse today announced the availability of two free scenarios for our award-winning game, WingNuts 2.

The first scenario is called "Cat Attack!". Our two summer testers/interns, Matt Korybski and Evan Wolf, sat down on their last day at Freeverse with the WingNuts 2 editor WingNuts & Bolts, and in no time created a fun and wacky two-level scenario. The office cats, C.C. and Mickey, have strapped jetpacks to their backs and taken over Manhattan. It's up to you to save the city. A bit wacky? Well yes, but it is a lot of fun; just look out for flying T-Rex dinosaurs.

The 2nd scenario is "Yarr Nuts!", a pirate themed scenario which has you sailing on the open seas to collect pirate booty. Created by Freeverse's own Bruce Morrison, "Yarr Nuts!" shows how you can turn an airplane-based game into something completely different.
