    If you've got a hankering for killing orcs but you're living on a budget, there's good news from Roadhouse Interactive. For a limited time, their side-scrolling action RPG Warhammer 40,000: Carnage is available for 70% off in the iOS store. The title normally sells for US$6.99, but thanks to the discount you'll be able to get it for roughly $2. Featuring up to three playable characters, threatening landscapes full of meteor storms, exploding enemies, gravity changes, and over 500 items from Warhammer's history, there's lots to experience. The title has more than 50 levels spread across two maps with more levels coming in future updates. The game offers in-app purchases that can be used to unlock characters faster or buy new weapons although, since the title normally costs $6.99, this sale might cut the sting out of laying down some extra scratch to unlock things up front. You can watch a trailer for the game below, and then head over to the iTunes Store to report for duty.

  • Wrath of the Lich King falls off the top sales spot (for now)

    It only took four months, but a new title has knocked Wrath of the Lich King off the top of the PC sales charts, according to industry trackers NPD. Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II, the much-awaited RTS title featuring that other fantasy universe with "war" in the title, has taken the top spot, knocking Wrath down to number two (and the original version of WoW and the Battle Chest hold their spots around six and seven).We suppose it had to happen at some point -- with PTR interest kicking in this past week, and the game having sold so many copies already, there had to be a point where something else jumped up above Wrath. But don't count the award winning expansion out of the number one spot yet. While Dawn of War II is getting reviewed very favorably, this little bump is likely due to an audience of fans who wanted to get the sequel on day one. Once first-week sales for that game level off, it's entirely likely that we'll see WotLK back up on top. Not that Blizzard needs any more money, of course. But it is good to be the (Lich) King.
