    Ubisoft recently showed off even more of Assassin's Creed: Revelations' multiplayer, featuring a new, radar-less mode. Thankfully, the entire preview was dutifully captured on film by GameTrailers. Grab some popcorn and take a seat -- there's quitea bit.

    Firefall is ready to ignite this December

    Gaming News that doesn't need a thread, Apr 20, 2011, 10:51 PM, YourPSHome.net, 2364
    Red 5 Studio's upcoming free-to-play shooter, FireFall, will launch this December. The news comes via Red 5's Mark Kern in an interview during the ChinaJoy gaming expo. For those who like a little extra sauce on their launch date news, Kern reconfirmedthe date in the FireFallforums.FireFall, lest you've forgotten, is a massively multiplayer online shooter headed up by lead designer Scott Youngblood. Yeah, the same Scott Youngblood that designed Tribes. And did we mention it's going to be free?Curious gamers should keep their eyes peeled, as a beta test is slated to roll out sometime before launch.

    We were a little ... unsettled by the revelation that one of House of the Dead: Overkill Extended Cut's new levels, "Naked Terror," had a high likelihood of zombie nudity. Fortunately, the first batch of screens for the stage features only tasteful, partial zombie nudity. Which is still kind of rough.

    Arkham City's Batman is a fashionista, rocking six suits in his wardrobe

    Gaming News that doesn't need a thread, Apr 20, 2011, 10:51 PM, YourPSHome.net, 2364
    Batman's a busy guy, sure, but when he's out prowling the streets of Arkham City looking for thugs, he wants to feel pretty just like anyone else. Developer Rocksteady Studios has clearly taken that into consideration, as the caped crusader has a sextet of costumes to don in his upcoming game, Batman: Arkham City -- should you procure all available pre-order and exclusivity offers surrounding the game, that is. As seen above, everything from classic 1970s Batman to Batman Beyond's version of the Bats' suit has made the cut thus far.

    Need for Speed: The Run limited edition comes with trio of extra supercars

    [video=youtube;EPqiJjcMjRk]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPqiJjcMjRk[/video]
    Like buying games brand new? EA sure wants you to, as its "Limited Edition" of Need for Speed: The Run incentivizes just such a purchase with the bonus inclusion of three fancy sports cars -- for the same price as the regular ol' "normal" edition, no less. Along with special access to a Porsche 911 Carrera S, a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and a Lamborghini Aventador, picking up the "Limited Edition" nets you "five exclusive Challenges" to slay with your high-powered sports car of choice.

    [video=youtube;4gumz3lA9KY]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gumz3lA9KY[/video]
    The official Lord of the Rings: War in the NorthFacebook page has declared November 1, 2011 as the beginning of operations in North America. The armies of man, elves and dwarves will arrive in Australia and Europe on November 2 and 4, respectively.Those who have already decided to enlist should take a look at the retailer specific pre-order bonuses and pick one that suits them best. Sadly, none of them come with Middle Earth's sparkling cider and three shot glasses ("regular cups" for all you hobbits out there)

    Demon's Souls Co-Op Review

    [video=youtube;pmf696bKPbc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmf696bKPbc[/video]
    We recently decided a Demon's Souls Co-Op Review was long overdue. *Why? *Because it's August, that's why. *There have been countless reviews of the difficult *PS3*title. *Well, they're probablycountable, but who's got that kind of time? *The game has been out for almost two years. *The sequel, Dark Souls,is coming this October. *That same month, poor little Demon's Souls'*servers will shut down, effectively ending co-op play forever. *For this review we'll be focusing on co-op, mainly because Demon's Soulsis a very deep game. *I originally wrote a 4000 word draft with more on the way. *Nick and Mike recommended that I cut it down, mentioning something about me being out of my mind and attention spans on the internet... *(I even left out a lot of good stuff, too.) *Without further ado, the Demon's SoulsCo-Op Review.

    Catherine becomes Atlus? biggest launch ever

    Gaming News that doesn't need a thread, Apr 20, 2011, 10:51 PM, YourPSHome.net, 2364
    Wacky mature-themed puzzler Catherinehas proven to be an early success for Atlus. Since its July 26th release in the US, the game has quickly become the publisher?s biggest launch title in its 20-year history.?Catherine has exceeded our highest expectations,? Tim Pivnicny, VP of Sales and Marketing at Atlus, told IGN. ?It released last week to tremendous critical acclaim and fan response, bolstered by the release of a demo a couple weeks prior, and continues to generate discussion among fans for its mature themes, engrossing subject matter, and frantic, challenging gameplay.?Atlus is unable to provide any precise data at this time, but does say the game ?continues to see strong sales at retail.

    According to an advert published in P3Zine, racers wanting to take an early peek at Driver: San Franciscobefore it actually hits stores will be able to do just that mid-August, which would mean roughly two weeks from today.The advert states that a demo for Ubisoft?s franchise reboot will be made available on the PlayStation Network on August 17th, leaving any specifics of it out of the picture, sadly. Since this is a PlayStation magazine, the obvious PSN reference is, well, obvious, but we wouldn?t rule out the same demo hitting Xbox Live on the same day or close to it.Driver: San Franciscohits stores early next month for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii, PC and Mac.

    A new piece of Red Faction: Armageddondownloadable content is out and about on both Xbox Live and PSN .Fans of the series may wish to pick it up as it?s very likely to be the last addition the franchise as a whole sees for quite some time, given publisher THQ?s recent decision to put the series on ice following low sales of the new game.The DLC is called The Path to War pack, and offers two new weapons and four missions mixed in a number of achievements and trophies. It?s priced at $6.99/560 Microsoft Points.

    Burnout developer revving up for new game

    Gaming News that doesn't need a thread, Apr 20, 2011, 10:51 PM, YourPSHome.net, 2364
    When Criterion announced Burnout Crash!, many immediately thought it would act as a bridge between what the developer did last (Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit) with what?s to come. And it would appear these speculations might have had a grain of truth behind them judging from a blog post published on the official site.Criterion is now looking for new talent to fill a number of vacant roles, including AI programmer, lead software engineer, audio software engineer and senior physics programmer among others. For what?*?Our current ambition requires an innovative programmer to deliver killer entertainment experiences with believable, open world AI Racing Drivers,? says the AI programmer opening.

    Rambois coming to current generation consoles.*I could leave that line as the sole statement in this article and that would be more than enough for most fans, but I?ll go a bit deeper for the non-Rambopeople out there. They really exist?Reef Entertainment, best known for the Wii titles Rogue Trooperand Sniper Elite, have secured the license for Ramboand assure us the game will ?capture the gritty atmosphere and full-on action which made the Rambomovies so successful.? While the game has no title as of yet, the developer has set eyes on a 2012 release date on Xbox 360, PS3, and PC.

    HBO Go coming to consoles

    Gaming News that doesn't need a thread, Apr 20, 2011, 10:51 PM, YourPSHome.net, 2364
    That?s right. HBO?s service that lets viewers watch premium cable programming on phones, tablets and computers is now coming to videogame consoles, and we can?t say we?re very surprised. Time Warner CEO Jeff Bewkes has already seen the success that other streaming services like Netflix and MLB.tv have had moving to game systems, so why not do the same with HBO Go?It?s actually kind of surprising that HBO Go didn?t hit consoles before the smartphones. After all, having to watch an episode of Game of Thronescramped onto a little iPhone screen might take something out of the dramatic experience. Those videogame consoles tend to be connected to something with a slightly larger screen.
