A Strategy Game About Digging Yourself Off an Alien Planet
We looked at Maia a few months back here on Kotaku, but in this new clip put together for the game’s Kickstarter campaign, we get to see a whole lot more of it.
It’s a game about, at its most basic level, managing a space colony/station. Only with all kinds of delicious tactical stuff added to the mix, as you try and harvest the surrounding area in order to get your colonists off a hostile planet.

Four Minutes of Halo 4’s Multiplayer Madness
I’m so busy with the game’s singleplayer campaign I haven’t even touched Halo 4’s multiplayer yet. Which is a shame, because I’m sure it’s a blast turning those terrific new guns (and most of them are super satisfying) on actual humans.

A culture clash theme anchors a couple of viral cosplay videos commissioned by Ubisoft Netherlands, showing Connor Kenway coming to grips with the new world. The first is above, here’s the second. There’s a choose-your-own-adventure outcome at the end, each outcome neither much surprising nor terribly violent. The costume and settings still form a nice setup and visual punchline. Enjoy.

The Ten-Year Evolution of Halo’s Master Chief
It’s been over ten years since the first Halo game was released, and even longer since we first laid eyes on the Master Chief. A lot has changed since then.Like, ten years of combat has literally sucked all the colour out of him.
More seriously, I’m slowly coming around to appreciate his armour in Halo 4. When you see it in action, the decrease in plating makes it seem more practical than the BMX padding he was wearing in Combat Evolved.
Not that I’d know. My first-hand experience battling aliens in the future is somewhat limited, so I’m only guessing as to how useful all that stuff really is.

Diablo III’s Auction House Taken Down for ‘Emergency Maintenance’
Blizzard just said that because of “issues affecting auction processing and payment delivery,” Diablo III’s auction house has been taken down “for urgent maintenance,” and it’ll be out of action for at least 5 hours, to 12:30 a.m. EDT on Nov. 2.
Last night, Blizzard’s authentication service encountered problems with players connecting to Battle.net across Diablo III, StarCraft II and World of Warcraft. Authentication problems continued into this morning, and earlier this evening Blizzard acknowledged that players were experiencing payment delays from the real money auction house, seeming to connect the two matters.
