A bit late in the day for this, but here is another one of my world famous editions of ‘The Roundup!’ (not actually world famous – Ed) Hit the jump for some pieces of writing I want to bring attention to and a roundup of my own work.

Firstly I want to highlight this Games Set Watch column where Kevin Gifford looks at how online gaming sites are ignoring the stories that often break first in print magazine. Very good piece of journalism there. Also from GSW is Phill’s latest column about PC ports of console games.

From Resolution comes Lewis’ look at Half-Life 2 mod ‘Curse’. Good to see some lesser known Half-Life 2 mods getting some exposure.

From The Reticule I have to highlight Greg’s hands-on preview of the new Operation Flashpoint which looks outstanding.

Time for my own stuff and I start off with a rant about Games for Windows Live which has ruined my experiences with Street Fighter IV and nearly done the same with Fallout 3.

On The Reticule I have Hearts of Iron 3 and grabbed a sneaky quick interview with DoubleBear Productions I also played Ashes Cricket 2009 and while I really enjoy the game, I can’t recommend it to many other people.

That is a wrap, look out for more of The Roundup in a fortnight.
