This Saturday, the Playstation Vita will finally makes its debut in the public when it launches in Japan. While we in the Western World will have to wait until February (unless you decide to import it), the hype train is in full gear over in Japan. This includes a sleuth of gameplay videos. First released on the Play Community site, a Japanese Youtube subscriber has uploaded the more recent videos.

The amount of videos released amounts to over one hour of gameplay, according to Siliconera. Quite a lot, I say. They include but not limited to games such as Gravity Daze, Disgaea 3 Return (Absence of Detention in the West), Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom and Uncharted: Golden Abyss.

Below are videos from a selection of games. All of them are in Japanese:

The long anticipated Men In Black 3 has been dwelling in the back of the minds of it’s dedicated fan base for a while now, but now Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones have returned to reprized their roles as Agent K and Agent J! A new trailer has been released (which you can see below) and the film is looking like it’s staying very true to the groundwork previously set out by the two predecessors before it. The humor and presentation are of a similar taste, so fans should feel right at home with this film. It appears the plot will revolve around time travel-sounds interesting! Make sure you keep an eye out for this film, which is coming to a cinema near you May 25, 2012.

Bastion DLC rolls out this week

The critically acclaimed Bastion, which we gave a perfect score for in our review, will now be recieving downloadable content. The DLC is set to head into the Bastion on the 14th of December under the title ‘The Stranger’s Dream’.

Supergiant Games released to following information concerning the details of the DLC’s new features:

– The Stranger’s Dream: a new fully narrated Who Knows Where sequence, bigger and more challenging than the others. You’ll gain a bit more insight into Rucks’ backstory as well as the history of Caelondia if you can survive this fight.

– Score Attack Mode: a challenging new way to play through the story! You start at level one with all Spirits and Idols unlocked. Your combat performance is rated for efficiency, and all areas are repeatable.

– No-Sweat Mode: for those who just want to experience the story of Bastion, this mode provides unlimited chances to carry on from where you left off if you’re defeated in battle.

That is undoubtedly a pretty hefty amount of new content for the little XBLA game that could. The DLC drops tomorrow, at the incredibly low price of 80 microsoft points. Now that is a bargain right there. Supergiant Games originally planned the DLC to be absolutely free but due to a clause with Microsoft they had to give it a price, so they opted for the lowest price they were allowed.

Will you be picking up ‘The Stranger’s Dream’ DLC for Bastion? Let us know in the shoutbox and comment section.

While you could go through all of the various related articles below and look for all the new additions to Final Fantasy XIII-2, Square Enix has saved you all of that trouble because today they have released a new trailer which covers everything new in the title.

Besides the trailer you can find below, you will also see a handful of screenshots that show various gameplay sections including a “Beginner’s Primer” which will let players catch up on what happened in the first game. Check them out below.

Army Corps of Hell multiplayer brings the insanity

From what we have seen of Army Corps of Hell the title looks absolutely crazy and hectic and so far that has only been the single player mode. But now we have footage from Square Enix themselves which shows us just how crazy everything will look when players hop on the multiplayer part of the title.

Now the title will support 4 player local co-op play which is something of a shame as, although Japanese gamers usually can take huge advantage of local co-op with handhelds, in North America local only co-op on handhelds usually means that the mode will see little actual use. Catch the trailer below.

Tony Hawk Pro Skater HD detailed

While we learned about the existence of Tony Hawk Pro Skater HD from the pro skater himself, Tony Hawk, there was little actual revealing to be had for the title during the VGAs. Today however Activision has decided to reveal a bit more about the title. The developers behind the game are the same ones who worked on one of the biggest flops in the franchise Tony Hawk Ride, Robomodo.

Before anyone gets angry however, the controls will be controller based, not skateboard peripheral based. The graphics have of course seen an upgrade and the cast of selectable characters has been changed with new more popular skaters such as “Nyjah Huston, Chris Cole, Eric Koston, Andrew Reynolds, Rodney Mullen, Lyn-z Adams Hawkins (Pastrana), Riley Hawk, and, of course, Tony Hawk himself.” Expect to see the title sometime this Summer for around $15.

There’s a bit of an upset in the latest release of the weekly UK All-Formats Top 40 charts, with Skyrim knocking Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 off of the top spot after a 145% rise in sales.

Skyrim was fifth just last week, but as retailers slashed prices in the UK, the Bethesda game rose above the competition, also surpassing Assassin’s Creed Revelations (now in fifth) and FIFA 12 (now fourth). Meanwhile, Modern Warfare 3 is holding its ground at number two, followed by Just Dance 3.

Check out the full top 40 over at Chart-Track.
