The official Minecraft Lego set is out! Get it now!

Or get a server from us here

I haven’t heard a whole lot about Tactical Intervention, but man, looks pretty cool.

From what I see you can drive cars, shoot over walls and rescue hostages. The creator of Counter-Strike has been busy! If you loved CS you are sure to enjoy this game…

Needless to say we are looking to host this for you. Check the teaser below:

Your firewall works great. Wise will be down until Windows pulls its head out of its ass.

Natural Selection 2 is looking like the best RTS/FPS ever created each time they release new material to the public. I am really excited to play and host this game when it finally releases. The most recent video shows us how many more improvements they have made to game play… including JETPACKS! The polish on this game looks great and it will surely be a hit. If you are already in the beta you can buy a server from us later on today on its game server page.

Check out the video here:

We’re obviously following Cube World very seriously. There isn’t mining and detailed construction (please add it!) but it looks like an awesome adventure game none the less. Should be a hit.

The lone wolf creator just released some information on how their spirit system works. Check it out here:

• @wol_lay Will CubeWorld have a dedicated server?! We are a large Minecraft host and would love to get into CubeWorld when its available! #

So I stumbed on this today: http://www.paradoxplaza.com/games/gettysburg-armored-warfare and I’m wondering where it came from. Normally I hear of games pretty darn quick, but this one has come out of left field.

So, maybe we should host it? Looks interesting. It is scheduled for Q1 2012 release by Paradox Interactive.

If you want your own world map like mine below, it’s pretty easy to make happen.

Step 1) Download Terrafirma and install it.
Step 2) Start Terrafirma from your start menu and go to File -> Connect to Server…
Step 3) Input your server IP and port. The port is everything after the : sign in your panel and the IP is everything before it.
Step 4) Click File -> Save PNG and choose where to save your image.

Easy!

Here is my world. Notice the super awesome fortress:

I’m thinking about adding clan hosting as a service to the site. People would be able to purchase clan hosting from us which would come with a large mumble voice server and a clan website package that includes a roster, blog, screenshot gallery, calendar, forum and more. If we started hosting this, would you buy it for $2.50/mo?

Beyond that, we’re considering actually making a public clan index on the site that lists all of our clans who have chosen to be public. Clans could have their recruiting status, member count, logo and name all listed there. Once we had a bunch of clans registered, we would start doing tournaments and giving away prizes to the winning clans.

This would move HGS beyond just hosting games and into being a real hub for competitive gaming and clan play. What do you think?
