Gaming News
EA might have the worst customer support of any publisher in the world but that doesn't stop their triple AAA titles from selling! Battlefield 3 sales have reached over 8 million. And while on the topic of AAA shooters, Modern Warfare 3 has been given a run for it's money by sandbox indie game Terraria, for the most played games on steam. The following graph are the player stats for the two games, with Terraria in yellow and Modern Warfare multi-player in blue:

For those of you who are unfamiliar with Terraria, it's essentially a 2D equivalent of Minecraft, only there is less emphasis on building and more emphasis on exploration and combat, with RPG elements sprinkled in. PC gamer published an excellent beginner's guide which can be found here. Terraria was released some time ago but the huge 1.1 patch added new items, monsters, bosses and biomes, causing renewed activity in the title. As well as this, it has been on sale for as little as $2 on Steam.
