Another Friday, another podcast! Join us for Episode 8 as we discuss OnLive going live this summer, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11, Sony's Natal Motion Plus controller, fat cats, and the scrotum.
Hey Xbox 360 owners, you ready for some new multiplayer maps on Modern Warfare 2? Good, because they will be available on March 30! If you are playing the game on PC and PlayStation 3, you need to wait until what has only been mentioned as "a later date". The details outside of the release date have not been revealed yet, but according to the viral site Mapathy.com, we can expect details soon.
Well, there you go! All of the mysterious updates to Portal this week has led to this. This is the cover of next month's Game Informer. So, unless this is part of some elaborate April Fool's Day gag (this IS April's cover, after all), we will be soon able to read some info on Portal 2. You can see the back cover and the official announcement from Valve after the jump.
The North American release date for Super Street Fighter IV has been announced by Capcom. This new version, which Capcom is dubbing "the ultimate vision of Street Fighter" and features not only addition characters but new Ultra combos, stages, online modes and more.
Sega announced today that their upcoming espionage-action-rpg Alpha Protocol, will be hitting store shelves on June 1st. Alpha Protocol tosses players into the role of a rookie spy who can be fully customized to your liking. Skills, weapons and attributes can all be modified to create a unique character.
This new Just Cause 2 Stunt videos centers around Firetruck vs. Jet. That should tell you a little something. Just watch the video and think about how much fun this game might end up being. And yes, I know this isn't nearly as cool as the other two released the other day.
As we mentioned in Episode 4 of our podcast, BioShock 2 on the PC was facing the same widescreen cropping issues that the first game had. Well, tomorrow you won't have to worry about it anymore, as the game will be getting patched. Also, there was apparently an issue in the multiplayer where your M1 button (Left Click on the mouse) wouldn't be recognized. They are fixing that as well. The patch will be available for download at 2 AM PST.
The latest DLC for Borderlands, The Secret Army of General Knoxx, is going to be available for purchase this week. Xbox 360 owners will have access to it for 800 MS Points starting tomorrow. If you have it on PC or PS3, you will only have to wait until Thursday to get your hands on it for $9.99. Along with some new areas and enemies, the DLC will also give you some new loot to get your hands on and it will raise the level cap.
We finally have the full information about the pricing and release dates for the games in the Xbox Live Arcade Block Party. Things are going to kick off on March 3 with the release of Toy Soldiers. The last week of the Block Party sees the release of the XBLA Game Room. And much like last year's Summer of Arcade, if you buy all three games and download the free Game Room, you will get 400 MS Points credited to your account. I'm not sure it's going to be worth it for the Block Party though, as I can only see one game that I would purchase: Perfect Dark.
Also, over the last weekend of March, you will be able to play any of the three games over Xbox Live as a special online taste for all of those who only have a Silver membership. Hit the jump for the full list and details.
