Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Creative Assembly have brought us many a fine historical battle moment on PC with the Total War Series. The latest Medieval II: Total War is a masterpiece.
Now they are venturing again onto the console platform (as they did with the PS2's Spartan: Total Warrior). This time they are getting all Norse on our collective arses with Viking: Battle for Asgard.
Due in early 2008 for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 Viking: Battle for Asgard will step away from the "realism" of the Total War series and look at Norse mythology.
Sounds very much like this will be a similar experience to Spartan: Total Warrior as the player takes the role of a young Viking warrior Skarin. Battling mythical beasts, liberating allies in an attempt to protect Midgard from the goddess Hel and her army of undead barbarians. Odin should really not have kicked her out of Asgard to start with.
Creative Assembly promise large environments to explore and rampage through, and of course we should expect a final apocalyptic battle (Ragnarok) to splash onto our TV's.
Last time, Creative Assembly had to battle sales of Spartan: Total Warrior with the hyped up and fun God of War. This time around, depending on timing, they may well be battling against the release of Beowulf from developer Tiwak. Though Beowulf is due in November to coincide with the release of the Robert Zemeckis feature film.
