Andriasang: Sony's November lineup for PlayStation 3's The Best budget label includes some major releases, but this is probably the biggest: Biohazard 5 Alternative Edition, or Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition as its known in the English speaking world (of which Japan is not yet a part), will get the ugly yellow packaging treatment on November 11.
Ex: The bitter struggle between game publisher SouthPeak (Two Worlds II, TNA iMPACT!) and distribution partner CDV has taken many unexpected turns, but today the outlook for SouthPeak begins to look especially grim. Let's get everyone caught up first. Try to follow along as it's a bit messy.
RPG Deals this week are highlighted by a buy-one-get-one DS game sale, as well as some discounts on lots of RPGs like Persona 4, Disgaea 3, Fable II, and many more.
A few RPGs already out and several coming out later this month, including quite a few handhelds and couple of Western RPGs seeing their first daylight in Japan.
German developer Ascaron had recently closed its doors. Their latest game Sacred 2: Fallen Angel will be taken on by Deep Silver and Koch Media. While the new PC add-on Ice & Blood comes out in August, Ascaron/Deep Silver/Koch Media were quiet about the console release. Now it's known that the expansion is still planned. The add-on Ice & Blood is scheduled for December 09/January 10 for PS3 and Xbox360.
Ascaron still owns the license to Sacred, and it was not part of the IPs that Kalypso recently purchased from the troubled company.

NBC Universal Global Networks today announced that Koch Media Limited will sponsor the UK Sci Fi channel's primetime programming to tie in with the release of Sacred 2: Fallen Angel. Starting from today, the sponsorship will run for three weeks around titles such as the new spy series, My Own Worst Enemy, staring Christian Slater and movies including Minority Report and The Fast and Furious.
CDV Software is quickly readying patches for the console versions of Sacred 2: Fallen Angel, fixing the online multiplayer of the PlayStation 3 version while making sure Xbox 360 customers get their pre-order bonuses. If it seemed like the oft-delayed console version of Ascaron's action role-playing game was still a bit rushed, that's only because it was. Xbox 360 owners who pre-ordered the game from GameStop found that the redemption codes for their promised carrier imp bonus were not working, while PlayStation 3 users discovered that local co-operative game play couldn't be taken online as promised. CDV is currently actively working to fix these issues, according to updates scattered across their website and forums.
