Free Game of the Day
There is a free game called Slender (based on Slenderman) that is definitely the download of the day. It's pretty creepy, free and only 55mb so you have nothing to lose for trying it out.

Borderlands 2 Wimoweh Trailer
To be honest, I have no idea what this song has to do with this Borderlands 2 trailer (odd choice) but the action/gameplay looks awesome. I am a big fan of the first Borderlands game so I can't wait until September for this one to ship.

Fractal Design's Define XL Case
When you're building a computer, a lot of thought goes into the kind of case you're going to use for your brand new PC. Similarly, a lot of thought goes into designing these cases. Fractal Design's Josh Smith says that a reviewer recently commented on the thickness of the panels used in the company's Define XL case, because this case has super-thick panels.
Smith wanted to find a way to put a real world spin on the thickness of the Define XL's panels. After all, a measurement is just a number (or a 'boring number' as Smith says). The answer they came up with was guns. Specifically, they decided a 12-gauge shotgun was ideal for proving the durability of the Define XL's panels.

Tomb Raider Final Hours Introduces New Lara Croft
Camilla Luddington plays Lara Croft in the upcoming Tomb Raider reboot and if you're curious to see what the British actress brings to the role, you came to the right place. Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics just released the first episode of their Final Hours of Tomb Raider video series (an odd choice of title given that Tomb Raider won't ship for another six months), and the focus is squarely on Luddington. See what she has to say about the role and the reboot below.

How Big is PlanetSide 2?
Up to 2,000 players at once will be able to do battle in PlanetSide 2. Two thousand. Yes, Sony Online Entertainment's PlanetSide sequel puts the massive in MMOFPS, but it wasn't until I spoke with Creative Director Matt Higby that I recognized just how big SOE is trying to make PlanetSide 2.
With its deep strategy elements, its free-to-play model, its controls, its endless customization options, all on an all-new game engine built to take advantage of modern PC hardware, PlanetSide 2 looks big in every way. Heck, even its mobile app looks like it could blow its competitors out of the water. Is it any wonder PlanetSide 2 blew our minds at E3?

Arma 3 Vehicle Gameplay
The video walks us through the joys of driving a tank, shooting stuff, and threatening natural wildlife (in the form of a lazily meandering goat, which does not seem at all to give a toss about the several dozen tons of metal careening its way).
The narrator explains a little about the PhysX engine used to create a natural driving sort of feel, before switching into the gunner's position to oh-so-satisfyingly hail ammunition on unsuspecting enemies. This is taken from an actual in-game mission, though we're assured that everyone's playthrough will be slightly different.
