Blood & Gore

Mardukes & friends assembled to play homage to Friday the 13th with some bloody 360 games. The night started off with zombies in "Left 4 Dead". Then gears were switched literally to "Gears of War 2".

New SpringWidget - DC Online

A few Mardukes were into the MMORPG City of Heroes game a couple years back. So the DC Universe Online could draw a few of us back.

Hello Halo Wars & good-bye Ensemble

It has been at least 5 years since an RTS game has sucessfully lured Mardukes back to the genre. It also marks the last for the game developer as Microsoft closes the doors after the games completion. Ref article here.

The game releases on the Xbox360 on March 3, 2009 so it's still unknown how many Mardukes will grab it. Lots of potential coming from the same developer that made the series well known to old school Mardukes, Age of Empires. Check back in a month to hear the outcome!

Flickr: Marduke

Marduke has had various photo clients over the years. Many of them were free and therefore limited to some extent. The last one used at guildsforever was bought out by competition who stopped updating it. I have used flickr personally for several years and decided to create a public Marduke group on Flickr.

If you have Flickr then be sure to pop in and send me a note so I can add you to the group, otherwise just visit to look at old pictures of members, events, site pages, signatures, etc. I will continue to make the Marduke set/collection bigger and bigger.

Flickr: Marduke can be found here.

Marduke Membership

Who is still affiliated with Marduke? Some of the Marduke membership have come and gone; never to return. There have been a good number of folks that have always been around. We all take time off, get bored, leave to try something else but eventually the core group returns to check in.The core group that has been active the most in online gaming (PC, Xbox360, PS3, Wii) or posting on the marduke bbs throughout Marduke's lifespan have gone by the following names: AllaXul999, Bogart, Damien Mephisto, Dan1157, DeViL, Dingy Harry, Guildguru, Isometric, MasterChef, Marvel, Matt1157, Mits, Nightwings, Patrician, Opsteel, Sacrifix, St_Jedi, TMan, and Woodstock. Check out the Legendary Crew post for details on our current and past members.
