New Tekken Tag Tournament 2 Characters
If you're strangely unsatisfied with the huge amount of characters, stages and customization options in Tekken Tag Tournament 2, you may be in for a treat.Namco Bandai Games, the developer behind the new Tekken Tag Tournament 2, has released a new patch for the game, which if it hasn't already, should roll out for everyone on both PS3 and Xbox 360 very shortly.
Unlike most patches, the new 1.02 patch for Tag Tournament 2 won't be a boring bunch of code added to the game, hiding without proof of existence.
The new patch will be adding a few new characters to TTT2,

Rumored for some time now, the 'Pirate DLC' many have been expecting for Borderlands 2 has been released. Following gameplay footage of a list of new PS3 trophies leaked from Eurogamer, Gearbox has now confirmed that they will be releasing their 'Pirate DLC' this month."You can sense the pirate theme across the landscape, even though there's no water," said Gearbox Software president Randy Pitchford. "It's all dried up. It feels more like Tatooine than an ocean. These bandits have really embraced the pirate lifestyle, and there's the legend of a treasure. That kicks off this whole adventure that the players can go on."
The new DLC, which has been set for release on October 16th, follows the early release for the Mechromancer character just one week ago. The newest DLC will focus new gameplay on Captain Scarlett, a one eyed pirate queen. The DLC will add a new expansive desert and a bandit-filled town named Oasis.

Rockstar has produced some of the most hyped-up games in the last decade, and with their huge collection of games and genres, it only makes sense that they release a compilation of all of their most popular titles in a nice, affordable bundle. Well, Rockstar have finally packaged up a few games within a newly announced collection, which has been named the Rockstar Games Collection: Edition 1.
The games included in the bundle are GTA IV: Episodes from Liberty City, Red Dead Redemption, L.A. Noire, and Midnight Club Complete Edition.
Episodes of Liberty City will include both expansions for the fourth Grand Theft Auto separate from the main game, and the Midnight Club Complete Edition includes all previous downloadable content for free.

In previous games of the Assassin's Creed series, we've been introduced to various multiplayer modes, and although they have added a few extra hours to gameplay, they weren't complete enough to offer an experience separate from the single player storyline, and this is where Assassin's Creed 3 will add something different.
The new Assassin's Creed 3, which is set to release at the end of this month, will have many of the multiplayer game modes that we've seen before. As well as players having access to most of the old multiplayer game modes, new ones will be added, such as the 2-4 player Wolf Pack mode, which puts teams of players on missions to assassinate 25 waves of A.I targets. Each round will have a set time limit that will decrease incrementally as more rounds of the game are played.
Ubisoft aren't just trying to raise the competitive spirits of those playing Assassin's Creed 3, but also want to award players with items such as character dossiers exclusive to the multiplayer

Dust 514 Info
"The Biggest multiplayer FPS on the market" is not a claim to make lightly, but CCP, the developers of the popular MMO Eve, believe this is so.
The game will be the first large scale PlayStation exclusive that will not include a physical CD, making the game only available to download off of the PSN store. Dust 514 is expected for release later this year, but what will the game actually include?
The Dust 514 team has worked very hard alongside those at CCP to create a multiplayer console experience that interacts with CCP's space combat MMO. The firefights that Dust 514 players experience will help Eve players to capture territory and planets in the

Assassin's Creed 3 Info
We all know the basis of Assassins Creed, and as the franchise grows, the same features we've seen in every game will come back again and again, but what will make the 5th game in the series any different, and what will give us enough excitement to follow the story even further?
The combat mechanics in the new game aren't going to change much from its predecessors, which makes sense since the controls have been smooth enough since the beginning, but as Assassins Creed 3 is set a little closer to home in regards to history, we'll often come across many weapons in the game that require a little change of tactics,

Hello everyone and welcome back to the sixth part of my Minecraft series. Where you get to laugh at my pain and hopefully learn something from it for your Minecrafting adventures!
Last time I left you my companion and myself had started a new life in the swamp biome with a new home and even a rooftop garden! Of course, it wasn't all sunshine and rainbows to get to that point but it worked out.
This week was looking a lot more productive. Katycat37 was about to learn animal husbandry and I was about to learn how cool it is to have a boat, and how cool it was to get lost.
Fishing and kittens...
As we started to finally settle down in our new home we decided it would be a good time to stop worrying about caring for our survival and just living leisurely. So, my companion found out how to make a fishing rod and began to fish! These fish that she caught was a great source of food for us but when my Minecraft guru friend told her she could

Sony is literally horrible at keeping new hardware news secret. Months before its official release there were rumors going around that Sony was coming up with a new "super slim" version of the old PS3. By old PS3 I mean the very first generation, you know the ones that weighed a ton.Sony is known to release slimmer version of their consoles as they did for the PS2 so everyone expected a PS3 Slim somewhere down the pipeline. However, I for one did not expect a slimmer version of the PS3 Slim. The rumors mentioned the newer model might be a bit cheaper and also arrive somewhere around TGS 2012.
Thanks to Sony's official reveal, once again we see that rumors in the video game industry are much more reliable than those in any other industry. The Playstation 3 Super Slim was revealed on the 17th of September on TGS and the details of the new model are as follows.
Specifications:
There is nothing really different about this model

When The Last Guardian was first revealed it looked as if it was going to be one of those masterpieces that you would buy a console just to play. As you can see from the following trailers it seemed epic, grand, mystifying and above all incredibly intriguing. Before even seeing anything about the game we all expected it to be along the lines of the PS2 masterpieces, Shadow of the Colossus and ICO. Check out the trailers:E3 2010: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHzHoMT5eRg
TGS 2010: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Vi3srAvl1w&feature=relmfu
Yep, you read it right, it was announced in 2010. Has it been launched yet? Far from it. Just like any of those games that gamers are dying to play, The Last Guardian's launch date kept on postponing till the point that it was believed it had been cancelled altogether.

It seems like everyone has been waiting forever to witness the release of the next-gen consoles. Out of the three giants Nintendo has already revealed its next-gen console (the Wii U) which is expected to hit stores somewhere near fall of this year. Microsoft and Sony on the other hand are still very quiet.It's like an old school standoff with Sony and Microsoft keeping a very close eye one other. I bet they are also keeping a watch on Nintendo but I highly doubt either company really sees Nintendo as a threat. We all know why. Nintendo makes amazing 1st party titles but without proper 3rd party titles it is going to be really hard for Nintendo to catch-up to the other two.
I guess Nintendo knows this fact well and based on this they decided to launch Wii U ahead of the competition. But according to new rumors Nintendo might not have the luxury of a huge gap anymore. A few GameStop employees have recently come forth to reveal that that either one or
