LOOK OUT! – Fallout 3: Point Lookout Trailer
Bethesda have set a date (23rd of June for the Xbox 360 & PC over the various Live platforms, with a PS3 release due after the earlier packages hit the platform ‘soon’) and released a trailer (after the cut) for the next Fallout 3 DLC pack, which is set in a mysterious swamp-filled coastal town called Point Lookout. The pack promises an open-ended quest, new enemies that bear a passing resemblance to the cast of Deliverance and a double-barrelled shotgun with which to put them down.… Read More…
GTA: The Ballad of Gay Tony Announced, Retail Bundle
Later this year, Rockstar will release the second of the 360 Exclusive GTA DLC “The Ballad of Gay Tony”.
The game casts you as Luis Lopez who is described as a “part-time hoodlum and full-time assistant to legendary nightclub impresario Tony Prince (aka “Gay Tony”)”. You will apparently “struggle with the competing loyalties of family and friends, and with the uncertainty about who is real and who is fake in a world in which everyone has a price”. Sounds just like real life.
“Liberty City is the most vibrant game world we’ve created yet. The episodic structure has allowed us
A million fanboys crying in pain: F3 DLC coming to PS3
In what can officially be called a Fallout MEGA UPDATE, Bethesda have pulled back the curtains on what we knew was coming… and then some more too!

Valve adopt DLC – monetising vs. progress?
The PC has been largely free of the blight of the monetised morsels of gameplay that is Downloadable Content. Largely down to the lack of a standardised platform with which to distribute (and collect payment), ala. the current games consoles, nobody has really managed to get a firm grip on the masses who prefer to do their gaming on their desktops rather than in their lounges.
Now, Valve, purveyors of Steam, have finally revealed a modification for Steam that allows additional content to be plugged into games offered on the service on a case-by-case basis.… Read More…
Taking the Pitt: Planet Fallout talks to Jeff Gardiner
Planet Fallout has an interview with Jeff Gardiner regarding the second DLC pack for the post-apocalyptic FPSRPG.
The article mostly fills us in on details we knew already, but Bethesda’s senior producer does provide more detail about the arena fights on offer and points out that the player will be able to return to the Pitt at any time (contrary to popular opinion that it would be a one-shot effort).
Can we return to the Pitt later on the game?
Yes, once you’ve completed the quest you can return at any time.

F.E.A.R. 2 DLC – insert ‘afraid of DLC’ joke here
Pretty much as it says on the tin here… WBIE have announced DLC for F.E.A.R. 2 on all platforms (well, all it was released on… because giving Wii owners F.E.A.R. 2 DLC would be stupid, wouldn’t it).
Not really much to go on re: content or price, but it will be available in April and comes with (at least) a new map-pack called Toy Soldiers (because Land of the Giants-style multiplayer maps are SOOOO original) and a ‘premium theme & picture pack’, which I’m going to go out on a limb and say is a ‘console’ thing.
Short, sharp and … Read More…
Titanic Struggle – UT3 Titan Update released on PC, PS3 delayed
The promised Titan update for the PC release of Unreal Tournament 3 has gone live alongside patch #4 which takes the game to version 2.0 (with the latter presumably required for the former) and is available over Steam or via manual download (mirror 1 | mirror 2) if you haven’t registered your retail key with Valve’s service.… Read More…
Pittsburgh Ho! – Fallout 3: The Pitt DLC dated *Updated*
Bethesda have announced the release date for the next Fallout 3 DLC. March the 24th is the day we will all be able to don some slave clothes and infiltrate the raider city of Pittsburgh.
Whilst we pray it turns out better than Operation: Anchorage, check out Eurogamers preview of the pack.
*Update*
A separate Eurogamer article points out that the 1.4 patch, released 2 days ago for both PC & 360, enables a shedload of effects that were (accidentally?) disabled in the version for Redmond’s console. Inside Digital Foundry has information and screens… Read More…
In Soviet Russia, game cans YOU! : WiC for Consoles binned
