Hello Games has announced that Joe Danger: Special Edition will be coming to the XBLA soon. It will be published by Microsoft.

Being ported over to the Xbox 360, Hello has decided to change some things up.

“I think we knew that Joe Danger was a hard game, but it could be frustrating,” Murray said. “I think we’ve really changed that, it’s a much more joyous game now, through like a thousand changes big and small.”

“New environments, gameplay modes, characters” and more will be included.

“I’m not sure it would be possible for someone to complete in under 30 hours now… the game is huge,” Murray stated.

MMM, there is nothing better than freshly killed Orcs. Luckily, you will soon have a new mode, named the Chaos Challenge, to kill them in. The release date for the Chaos Challenge is sometime in December. The new downloads will include “new boss rounds, new co-op arenas and new enemy units like the Imperial Sanctioned Psyker.” Of course, it will cost you. 800 points or $10 to be specific.

Three new warzone operations across the Habs Ablaze, Station Tertius and Aquila Canyon maps will be included. In addition, a CTF mode will also be in the DLC, although it will be outside the Chaos Unleashed mode.

Coffee Stain Studio announced today the upcoming ‘The Old City’ patch. Lead Designer Oscar Jilsen explained that they were going to add on to the story and experience for all players. Sanctum’s Old City DLC is said to add in a new weapon and tower for players to access. Jilsen added. “Slums will bring players to the Old City, a place that we haven’t really had the opportunity to show just yet. Elsewhere, the rescue efforts are going deeper underground to escape the aliens because the roots the aliens originate from are incapable of going below a certain depth. All in all, we’re working on expanding on the universe and showing the real plot behind Sanctum.”

“I’m excited about the geeky technical stuff. We’ve finally sorted out [most of] the bugs,” said Lead Programmer Markus Rännare. “Sanctum now has localization support, client side hit detection to help reduce the feeling of lag, FOV setting support and cloud saves. We’re also introducing three new game modes to the game. The game is, quite literally, better than it ever was. “In addition to the new content, Coffee Stain Studios also announced that Steam will be hosting a Free Weekend for Sanctum from the November 3-6. During this period of time, players will be able to play for absolutely nothing.

When you play Namco Bandai’s latest racing game, Ridge Racer: Unbounded, you will have these words ringing in your head:

“My city, my streets… I created this place and you’re trying to take over…?

I’ll track you down, destroy your creations, dominate your city and when I’ll do… you’ll know!”

At least we think that’s what you’ll be hearing. Those engine noises and crash sound effects were really loud. Better take a look at the trailer yourself to make sure.

Ridge Racer Unbounded will be available on March 2nd, 2012 in Europe and on the 6th in North America.

Rayman is set to return to full 2D platforming glory in less than two weeks, but Ubisoft have now released a new trailer to show us the much darker side of the same. Yeah, that’s right. The deaths. This clip shows us 10 different ways that Rayman and friends can meet their untimely demise. From getting squashed by the environment, mauled by fish, and many other ways, each time these heroes meet their doom, they puff up like a balloon and pop, which is a nice way to go if you as me.

You can check out the new trailer below and get ready for some campy deaths as Rayman Origins launches on November 15th.
