News Highlights: Fri 3rd Feb

It's been a rather busy day at the news desk, and here are some of the major stories of the day in one easy to swallow bite.

THQ are actively looking for a partner to bring Warhammer 40,000: Dark Millenium Online to the market. Realising that they don't have the funds to finish the project at the moment they are looking for help. Hopefully they can find some.

A rumour about possible plans for future EA Partners projects surfaced on NeoGAF - and intriguingly a new Populous was mentioned.

GRTV had a busy day putting out Games to look for in February, interviews on A Game of Dwarves and Magicka: The Other Side of the Coin, as well as a preview on the first hour of Mass Effect 3.

EA ease back a bit on their battle against used game sales as Syndicate will feature no online pass. However, it should not be seen as a change of policy, rather a result of this being a EA Partners project and the multiplayer being limited to co-operative play.

We also got word of a couple of delays, with Metro: Last Light now set for release in early 2013, and Twisted Metal slipping into March as the game as being re-edited for the European market.

Finally, we got to see the first images from Yasumi Matsuno's next game Crimson Shroud - part of the compilation Guild 01 for Nintendo 3DS.

Enjoy your weekend!
