Mass Effect 2's "Arrival" DLC Trailer

Mass Effect 2's final Downloadable Content called "Arrival" will be out on March 29, 2011 for PC, PSN and Xbox live. If you're wondering what the last piece of Mass Effect 2 will bring you, Bioware just released a trailer to give us an idea on what to expect.

This last DLC will pretty much set the stage for Mass Effect 3. Shepard is tasked to find and free a doctor who has evidence of a Reaper Invasion. This trailer gave me the chills and another playthrough of Mass Effect 2 is in order. Enjoy.

SSF4 Arcade Edition Receives Classification from UK Ratings Board

The BBFC(British Board of Film Classification) has spilled the beans on the release of SSF4 Arcade Edition in consoles. the BBFC listing mentions anime animator Jiro Kanai as Director, meaning Arcade Edition will have new Intro and outro movies.

it seems the new Intro and Outro movies have passed with no cuts made by BBFC.

So yea, it look like the console version will be coming out soon. AE will be adding playable characters Yun and Yang from Street Fighter III plus Evil Ryu and Oni as secret bosses. The gameplay changes of AE will also be implemented.

the BBFC also lists Arcade Editon to be released on June 24, 2011

No one was certain if capcom would release the AE to consoles be it DLC or disc-based. If it's going tobe another disc-based release there's a possibility that they would add more extra feature that would make it worth the buy. I was hoping this would be DLC instead but we will know for sure when Capcom officially unveils the console version.

What would you guys prefer?? Disc-based released similar to SSF4 or DLC instead to be implemented on our SSF4 copies??{

Pokemon Black and White Hits Two Million Sales in the US

Pokemon Black and White almost reached 1 million sales in the Stats just on day 1. Now we're seeing its continued success. I know most people think that the new Pokemon look stupid and I've heard a lot of people complain about how ugly the game looks when the Pokemon are dancing around on screen but number don't lie. Apparantly most people out there like the moving sprites and the fresh new 150 Pokemon.

 

Nintendo of Amerca posted this info on their twitter page a few days ago and as far as I'm concerned I think they totally deserve it. I haven't had this much fun playing a Pokemon game since Gold.

Kinect: Gunstringer first look

Gunstringer is developed by Twisted Pixel and published my Microsoft Game Studios. This Xbox Live Arcade Game will be one of the first Kinect game that doesn't only cater to the casual gamer. Oh and you get to sit down while playing this game.

You basically control the Gunstringer, an undead marionette sheriff betrayed by his posse. He emerges from his grave and goes on a quest in search for his old Posse to get revenge, picking them off one by one. You control Gunstringer with your left and right hand. Your left hand is how you control Gunstringer strafing from left to right by moving your hand. The right hand controls your gun. You shape your right as gun and as you aim at your enemies you get to lock on them.  doing a firing gesture will make you shoot and watch Gunstringer shoot all that was lock-on.

It's a great concept and looks fun. No definite date yet for Gunstringer but they are aiming around the end of 2011.

So the 3DS gets released tomorrow

With just a few hours before our calendars hit the 27th of March. The Nintendo 3DS will be on sale for the open market. If you're from the Philippines you can get the 3DS at any DATABLITZ branch. As for the price, I haven't really asked any of the staff members but since it's going for $250 in the US, expect it to be around 12,000 php.

From what I've seen and heard, the 3DS looks to be an amazing handheld game system, as for the english launch titles I can't say the same. So, will any of you be buying a 3DS on day 1? Did you pre-order one? What will be your first 3DS game? Leave your questions and comments below.
