PCF is bad and keeps bad company (2)
Seems you can't post Bad Company 2 servers on Xfire. No doubt the Steam integration has something to do with that. Seems a little wrong... but anyway, we have officially adopted the WoostyANdKeas Bad Company 2 Server as our home (don't ask, long story about trusted server providers...).
Head to:
81.27.73.103:44400 or do a search for 'WoostyANdKeas' in the server browser (and it's a case sensitive search).

Servers were down, but now back again
For those that noticed, we had problems with our servers yesterday. This was partly due to the launch of L4D2 and an upgrade/migration going on at Multiplay, our provider. A few hours delay turned into a day of downtime and no L4D2 servers. Sorry about that.
All servers are back up though, including 5 L4D2 servers! The team plan to spend some time gleefully twanging the heads off zombies very soon and you're welcome to join us.
And finally, what they hell is with the Bravissimo ads? My man boobs haven't got that big!

CoD4 Game Night IV - Nuke'em Danno!

Boomsling is calling our next CoD4 Game Night - 'Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb' and here are the details:
I expected our next Call of Duty game night to feature Modern Warfare 2, but Infinity Ward's decision to drop dedicated servers and many other essential PC features soon put paid to that idea.
I feel the sadness of not being able to cut people in half with a automatic turret or wipe out entire teams with a tactical nuke. In fact, people actually cried when they realised that the possibility of circling a few hundred feet above the map and of picking people off one at a time from a AC110 was relegated back to the land of day dreams and wishful thinking...
Well dry your eyes its time to get happy!
Fueled by a more than unhealthy desire to stick it to the man I've found the perfect mod for CoD4 that brings the best bits of MW2 to CoD4:
• Naplam Airstrikes
• AC130 Gunship 25mm Gattling Gun
• AC130 Gunship 40mm Cannon
• AC130 Gunship 105mm Cannon
• Nuclear...

Playing some TF2 tonight

PCFormat Will be bobbing onto the TF2 server after work tonight, say 6. Haven't had a chance to try the Harvest map, but will also chuck in a few more maps, while I'm there. Join me! Tell your mates, in fact, invite your mates into the PCFormat corp. We need more peeps!

Yes, PCFormat Magazine is on Xfire
And no, our servers bloody aren't in the US. I've no idea why it says that.
Anyway, mingle with other PCF-types, chat, kill and enjoy the ambiance of being part of PCFormat's expanding sphere (and I'm not talking about the editor's head).
We'll be posting event info and 'stuff' as time goes on (or as I have time to do it!).
If you have any burning questions, please email them to me at (but put them out first):
