More sexy Dead or Alive 5 costumes released as DLC

While Tecmo Koei may have released a free pack of costume DLC shortly after Dead or Alive 5 was released, the company has chosen to release a second set of costume packs. Unfortunately, unlike the first pack, these costumes will cost $4.99 or 400 MSP depending on which console you choose to purchase them on.

That being said, these costumes range from very familiar to brand new as we see the return of the Kitty costumes where Tina, Lisa, Helena and Christie all receive some sexy cat girl outfits. Also released is a “What a Character” pack which brings some new costumes to the characters of Hitomi, Mila, Rig and Lisa. Finally the Special Set sees Kasumi, Leifang, Hayabusa and Lisa dressed in new outfits. In fact, Lisa is the only girl to receive a costume no matter which pack you purchase.

Each of these costumes can be seen in high-def in the gallery below, and consumers can purchase all of these packs in one set at a discounted price on the Xbox 360 for 1040 MSP or on the PS3 for $13.99.

Marvel’s Ant-Man Officially Dated

0

Well it seems that all systems are go for Phase 2 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with their latest film Ant-Man receiving the official release date of November 6, 2015.

The film is slated to be directed by Edgar Wright, who you many better known as the guy who made Spaced, Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and Scott Pilgrim vs the World.

Officially a member of The Avengers in the comics, Ant-Man aka Henry Pym is a talented scientist who discovers and devises substance to drastically reduce his size, and thus becoming ‘Ant-Man’. While that may not sound that exciting, the process can be reversed and he can become ‘Giant-Man’.

It will be interesting to see how Ant-Man will contribute to Marvel’s Avengers storyline as it is set to come out after The Avengers 2.  Or maybe we’ll see Henry Pym in The Avengers sequel with his storyline advanced in Ant-Man.

Who knows, we’ll see in three years time.

The sixth instalment in the series, Emergency 2013 is co-developed by franchise veterans Sixteen Tons Entertainment, developers of Emergency 2, 3 and 4, and Quadriga Games, developer of the most recent entrant, Emergency 2012, which Deep Silver published. Obviously, Deep Silver will be continuing their working relationship and will also be publishing Emergency 2013.

Players will have to manage resultant forest fires, toxic gas emissions and frustrated civilians as they work towards containing the disaster.

Emergency 2013 will be released on Windows PC via two distribution platforms; digital and physical copies, the latter of which will also include the entire contents of the Emergency 2012 Deluxe edition. For more information, keep an eye on the official Deep Silver ‘Emergency website.
