Grand Theft Auto V has arrived, and the whole gaming world has taken notice. We started Rockstar‘s generation-closer just yesterday, and will have our review up in the coming days (it’s a huge title in scope, as you know). But in the meantime, we have a neat unboxing video of the rare Collector’s Edition to share with you.
The Grand Theft Auto V Collector’s Edition sold out extremely fast when it went up for pre-order back in May of this year. You can view the unboxing video embedded below the following gallery – the quality of the latter which I must apologise for… not the best photos on my part. You’ll get a better, clearer look at the contents in the video itself. Oh, and as fair warning for any who haven’t started/bought the game on the Xbox 360, but plan to, do not install the “play” disc.
Yoshinori Ono, executive producer of Deep Down, has tweeted three new gameplay images of the dragon battle we first saw when the game was announced by Capcom. You can check them out below.
At 1280×720, these aren’t the 1080p direct-feed screenshots we’re expecting but they’re still a welcome addition to the previously released images. Deep Down will be playable and streamed worldwide from the Tokyo Game Show, running from September 19-22.
A PlayStation 4 exclusive, the online RPG is set in the year 2094 in New York where the hero must collect and read memories from the past inside virtually generated dungeons.
Following on from its huge showing and revival at E3 2013, many thought Square Enix would now regularly show Final Fantasy XV. That doesn’t seem to be the case as Director Tetsuya Nomura has confirmed there will be no new details for Final Fantasy XV at TGS 2013.
It’s not all bad news, however, as Nomura will be appearing on Sony Computer Entertainment’s Conversations With Creators interview series. There he will most definitely talk about the game.
“Since E3, I had the privilege of talking about Final Fantasy XV for the first time in a while,” said Nomura. “There won’t be new information at the Tokyo Game Show. I’m sorry, but you can experience a glimpse of Final Fantasy XV in this video. There are various things I cannot yet say, but please look forward to it.”
While it is a shame, it’s not entirely unexpected especially since fans of the once-Final Fantasy Versus XIII have grown a hardened shell to the constant delays and secrecy surrounding the title.
First announced in 2006, Final Fantasy Versus XIII has kept a low profile until its transition into Final Fantasy XV this year.

Scribblenauts Unmasked is shaping up to be a veritable encyclopedia of DC characters and items. Since many players wont know a great portion of the game’s umpteen characters, Warner Bros. have released an infographic so showcase the “Top 13 DC Comics Characters You Don’t Know, but Should,” and considering there are over 2000 different characters in the game, the list is a godsend.
DC Entertainment and Warner Bros. are really digging these infographics at the moment, after the Superman one not to long ago. The Top 13 infographic was too big to put on one page, so click on Zatanna below to be taken to the full list. Some of these characters will be immediately recognisable to many, like Zatanna, (who has been appearing in most of the DC games lately, like Infinite Crisis and Injustice) but some others like Brother Eye are a little more obscure so it is a fun list to check out.
Being the comic book geek that I am, I knew all thirteen characters on that list. How many were you aware of? Also, does Brother Eye really count as a character? Let us know your answers in the comments below, and remember that for all the Scribblenauts Unmasked news as it becomes available, stay tuned to Capsule Computers.
Coming as the third piece of add-on content for Metro: Last Light, a new developer pack was released today, opening up a whole new world of customisation in this thrilling FPS.
Consisting of 3 main parts,the developer pack allows you to toy with a number of things that were not previously possible in Metro: Last Light. Tinkerers will enjoy trying out every combination of guns and attachments that you can think of and trying them out in the shooting range to complete unique marksman challenges. In addition to the marksman challenges, there are a ton of new challenges to be completed in the new AI arena where you can either test your own skills or just have fun setting swarm after swarm of mutants on an unexpecting squad of customisable humans. And when you’re done unloading crazy guns on even crazier mutants, what better way is there to kick back than to visit the brand new ‘Metro Museum’ where you can check out every character, human, and mutant foe from behind a safe sheet of glass?
All of this comes alongside an extra single player mission called ‘The Spider’s Nest’ that is sure to be a real treat for anyone afraid of our 8-legged friends! In Deep Silver‘s own words you’ll have to, “use your wits, your lighter, your torch … And the brand new Flamethrower to escape from a spider infested catacomb.”
The developer pack is now available on PSN, Xbox Live, and Steam for just US$3.99/£3.19/€3.99. The final piece of add-on content, the ‘Chronicles Pack’ will be available later this month. It will feature 3 original single player missions exploring the stories of Pavel, Khan, Ulman, and Anna outside of the main storyline.
From the mind of the incredibly talented John Higgins comes Titan Comics’ brand new graphic novel; Razorjack. The story of two rogue cops investigating a string of gruesome murders that turn out to be so much more than they bargained for. If you call yourself a comic book fan, then you are undoubtedly aware of John Higgings’ work. He was the colorist for numerous high-profile books, not the least of which are Watchmen, and Batman: The Killing Joke.
The Twist: an infernal dimension of molten pain, terror and screaming torment. Ruling over this dark domain is the queen of carnage: Razorjack, she who would bring extinction to the Human race!
All that stands in the path of her apocalyptic ambitions is a pair of rogue cops. Their investigations into a series of horrific serial murders uncover Razorjack’s horrific machinations, forcing the cracks ever wider between Earth and The Twist – and the death of Humanity ever closer!
Sounds pretty exciting doesn’t it, and with a talented artist like Higgins at the helm, you know it is going to be good! If a brief synopsis isn’t enough for you, then check out our gallery below which contains several pages from the book. There is also a trailer for the book (not as weird as it sounds) so be sure to check that out below too.
Titan Comics have been pushing out a lot of quality books lately, like Monster Massacre and now Razorjack, so if you are new to comics and are looking for a company to keep an eye on, this is definitely the one. Razorjack is available now online and in comic book stores everywhere for $19.95, so be sure to pick it up and remember that for all the Titan Comics news as it becomes available, stay tuned to Capsule Computers.
Remember the Super Monkey Ball series ? You would run around in a ball trying to reach the end goal by tilting the stage around, dodging obstacles and trying not to fall off. Replace the cute natural themes with a futuristic setting, the bananas with robot medals/coins and replace the monkeys with robots and you have Orborun, a brand new 3D “run & roll” game created and produced by BulkyPix and Tiny Lab Productions. You need to get your Orbot to the end of the track while rolling down alternate paths, chaining jumps together and performing cool looking tricks, all without falling off. The difficulty of the 90+ tracks will steadily increase as you make your way across the three game worlds of Haste, Puzzle and Hazard. Finishing levels quickly will net you cool bonuses.
The games features include:
90+ challenging levels split into three exciting game worlds
Roll through a 100% 3D environment
Each race contains multiple paths to victory
Unlock unique Orbots with special abilities
Collect coins and buy cool skins for your Orbots

Remember the catch phrase “Gotta Catch Em’ All” ? Back when Pokemon had a smaller scale and under a quarter of the monsters currently avaialble to be caught it seemed like something that was relatively doable. In the newer games catching them all is definitely no small feat, but it seems The Pokemon Company are bringing back the phrase to celebrate the upcoming release of Pokemon X and Pokemon Y, and in a big way. A new website has been opened and a video featuring a really catchy remix of the Pokemon Theme song video has been created which you can check out below the comments.
To access the website you need to watch the below video and then enter the hidden promo code on the websites home page. We could tell you what it is but that’s not as fun. Besides the video is definitely worth a watch just for the autotuned Ash voice samples. Once you’re on the site you can register to join the hunt for codes to unlock goodies and win cool prizes such as a 3DS, Trading Cards and digital download codes for the upcoming games. It is important to note however that registrations are unfortunately only valid for those who live in the United States.
Pokemon X and Pokemon Y will be releasing in under a month’s time on October 12. Let us know which version you will be grabbing and check out our how to prepare for Pokemon X & Y article to get yourself primed and ready for Generation Six.
