... Well, the title pretty much explains it all. From now until October 22, Gamestop is having a special on Fallen Earth, selling this post-apocalyptic sandbox MMO for a mere $9.99. This boxed copy of Fallen Earth also features the exclusive in-game Prairie Chicken mount.

And that's pretty much it! So if you want to go romping around Fallen Earth on a Prairie Chicken (who doesn't!?) then this may be your one and only chance.

When you picture a post-apocalyptic wasteland in your mind, a Crafter's Market may not be the first thing that pops into your head. Regardless, a group of players has formed the Wasteland Crafter Co-Operative and will once again be hosting a Crafter's Market in New Flagstaff on October 2 at 5 p.m. EDT.

All players are invited to set up a stall to showcase their items, and there will also be a Grand Jousting Tournament and Gladiator Pit Fighting for those of you who would prefer a little combat mixed in with your crafts.

It's always great to see players taking initiave and hosting events in MMOs. What are your thoughts on the topic?

We recently got the chance to sit down with Fallen Earth's Senior Game Designer Marie Croall to talk about the game's first anniversary and the launch of patch 1.7.

So now you can collect points simply by having a subscription and inviting friends into the wasteland. More details can be found in the FAQ.

Rejoice wastelanders, it now costs you less to survive in Post-Apocalyptia. No I'm not talking about the figurative wasteland of trying to make a living as game journalist, I'm talking about Fallen Earth's fictional wasteland and their new price drop for game time.
