March 26, 2015

2K Games and Gearbox Software released Borderlands: The Handsome Collection for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One into the Australian wilds today. The collection contains Borderlands 2, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel! and all the DLC content for both games.

The collection also features a visual upgrade to make the most of the next gen console’s higher specs, and four player split screen for those with really big TVs. Those who own either game on a previous gen console can use cross save compatibility to bring their vault hunter to the new console. Do note that cross compatible saves are only applicable to the same console family, so PlayStation to Xbox saves (or vice versa) will not be possible.

Two pieces of DLC is now available for Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel! “Claptastic Voyage” adds a new mini-campaign inside Claptrap’s mind. “Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack 2” bumps the level cap up to 70. Both DLC are part of the season pass and Borderlands: The Handsome Collection. “Claptastic Voyage” can also be purchased on its own for $13.95 AUD.

Are you ready to get your ass handed to you by grotesque monsters in a chaotic, puritan setting? Do you also own a PS4? I hope so because Sony and FromSoftware, the guys who brought us Demons Souls and Dark Souls are back with Bloodborne, exclusively on PS4.

Players take on the role of The Hunter on a journey along the dingy alleyways of the fictional, sprawling city of Yharnam. The 19th century setting is dark and foreboding, with strange cloaked beings and deformed figures lurching out of the darkness ready to attack at any moment.With a quicker pace and more emphasis on being on the offensive, this game will be sure to give everyone a challenge – even the most veteran Dark Souls Player.

Bloodborne is out now on PS4 so what are you waiting for? get out there and get slaying!

The Crew Vintage Pack DLC & Free 2 Hour Trial

Ubisofts‘ massive open world racer The Crew has received it’s second of four known DLC packs and it comes with three new cars for those willing to shell out some cash. To see all the cars mentioned below in action be sure to check out the trailer embedded at the bottom of the page.

The first car is the Chevrolet Corvette C3, available in performance spec only. The third generation of an iconic American sports car, this classic replaced the C2 Stingray. Originally dubbed the Mako, this generation packs a powerful V8 and a sleek new body. If third time’s the charm then this ‘vette should be your first choice.

Next up we have the Spyker C8 Aileron which again is available only in perf spec. For a touch of Dutch speed, the Spyker C8 provides off the wall performance in an alternative package. The Aileron is the most recent model, with new bodywork and a higher top speed. For lightning quick performance, the Spyker C8 will perform valiantly.

Lastly we have the Chevrolet Crovette C2 which like the other cars only has perf spec as it’s other option from full stock. This sleek-lined classic provides everything, with gorgeous lines, a big block V8 and a certified place in American history.

This update launched alongside a huge patch that added new specs for cars, new faction missions, a new PvP mode and many other improvements to the overall game. For those yet to try the game you can download a free trial which will last you two hours and let you keep your progress if you go on to buy the full game.
