Even if you're skipping Batman: Arkham City this week, there's still plenty of game out there for you, some of which you can pick up for much less than the price of a full retail game. For instance, you could download 'The Missing Link,' a downloadable content pack for Deus Ex: Human Revolution. For a mere $15 it adds 5-6 hours of gameplay to the game and, best of all, you don't need to leave home to get it. Just jump onto the PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, or Steam and BAM! You're sneaking around a boat as Adam Jensen. Don't have Deus Ex yet? Well, you're in luck: Amazon is having a sale today, dropping the price down on all versions of the game...
James Rolfe should be immediately recognizable to anyone who's hung around the video game scene for a decent length of time. Since 2004, the indie filmmaker and founder of Cinemassacre Productions has been chugging Rolling Rock beer and reviewing the worst games on the planet as his dorky alter-ego, the Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN for cool people). Now, after seven years of subjecting himself to the horrors of gaming for his audience's amusement, he's turning to fans to help fund a feature length AVGN movie, and he's starting with this video plea...
Ever since Soulcalibur II, the fighting series has set a precedent of including special guest characters. From Link to Yoda, Namco has found new characters to add to the roster, and it appears as though Soulcalibur V will be no different. According to a tipster, Assassin's Creed's Ezio Auditore de Firenze will be stealthily sneaking into the game's roster undetected, before slashing enemies' jugulars with a hidden blade...
You've got less than 24 hours until the Missing Link DLC for Deus Ex: Human Revolution goes live, but that's still enough time to examine a few new screenshots for the added episode. You'll get a pretty good idea of the episode's basics from these selective (and very nice-looking) grabs, but you should know by now that the game goes much deeper than that...
Capcom has confirmed plans to upgrade Dante and Vergil with high-definition makeovers for a Devil May Cry HD Collection. As previously predicted, Capcom this week marked the action series' 10th anniversary by announcing a three-game compilation pack featuring enhanced versions of Devil May Cry, Devil May Cry 2, and Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening...
Beenox
is the developer responsible for Spider-Man’s most recent adventures, including
Shattered Dimensions and Edge of Time, which were adequate games, but lacked
one key component: New York City. Both went with separated, linear levels,
leaving behind the open world trappings of Spidey games of old. After a few
years break, Beenox is taking Peter Parker back to where he fits in best, as
the newly announced Amazing Spider-Man movie game will feature an open NYC once

Galactus may not be Jack Kirby and Stan Lee’s most important gift to comics when compared to Iron Man, Captain America, the X-Men, Avengers, or Fantastic Four, but he’s still a pretty big deal, and the kind of cosmic threat worthy of being a game’s final boss. Obviously playing as him in a normal match would break the game, but we still yearn to feel a fraction of his humungous power, and Capcom is finally going to give us a taste. This weekend Capcom confirmed a new playable Galactus mode is in Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 along with Galactus-centric, post-launch free DLC...
This new CG teaser for Prototype 2 continues where July's "Homecoming" spot left off. The clip sees new protagonist James Heller deep within infected territory and on the hunt for Alex Mercer...
As any good zombie hunter knows, the Crossbow is the ideal weapon to use against zombies. It punches a hole straight into the brain, the ammunition is reusable, and, most importantly, it's quiet. Very quiet. Shoot a gun and every walker between here and Atlanta will start shambling towards you – but the twang of a crossbow bolt is quiet enough to let you take down the undead like a pro. That is, unless you strap an explosive to the bolt, as is the case in this new trailer for the PS3 version of House of the Dead: Overkill - Extended Cut. But, heck, we're not complaining. Bring on the boom!...
With less than two weeks until Uncharted 3's US launch on November 1st, Drake fans won't have long left to wait until embarking on the game's single-player campaign. Here's the TV spot that'll taunt you with a few of the game's money shots. And while Naughty Dog has confirmed the game's DLC will be restricted to new multi-player content, it's fair to say single players will have plenty to be getting on with...
