You have all probably been enjoying the Demo, or you have been aggravated by clunky controls, the time limit, or maybe even that it feels too much like the first game with not that much added.
Well, I played the Demo and quite enjoyed myself. Haven’t unlocked any of the achievements because I was too busy progressing as far as possible in the Demo’s Story. The achievements are actually pretty easy, and consist of a whole bunch of miscellaneous tasks. The achievements will not be added until you buy the retail game, so they give you something to do while playing the demo. That 30 minute time limit is lame though. Oh and it has xbox live co-op! Which is awesome!
G’day everyone, Playstation Store updates are up for this week for everyone to enjoy. Quite a few price updates to check out just below. Have a look around, there should be something for everyone this week. Let us know what your going to pick up this week.
Special note : As its Sonic’s 19th Anniversary tomorrow there is are lot of specials going on, check them all out below. Grab yourself a bargain !! There are many other cool deals, demo’s vids, themes available this week so dig in and get cracking !!
Thanks SONY WE HEART YOU !!

Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 Portable Walkthrough Video #1
File size: 25 MB
After the Bazillion videos about Naughty Bear, we finally have a launch trailer for you guys. Below you will find the first of probably many launch trailers.
Imagine all of that murder just because he wasn’t invited to a party. So Sad. I do have to thank the game though for giving me so many videos to post. Thank you! Now lets hope this game is actually good. It looks decent, but seems repetitive. Naughty Bear Releases in the US June 29th.
If you pre-order Just Cause 2, then this news post is not important to you. On the other hand, if you hadn’t pre-ordered the game and just love blowing things up, then this post is perfect for you.
First off, the weapons that came with a pre-order are all on sale now for 80MSP each. Those include Rico’s Signature Gun, Bull’s Eye Assault Rifle and Chevalier Classic.
If weapons aren’t your thing and you are simply reading this to find out what could possibly help you blow things up, then you should definitely look at the picture above. That will help you blow things up. It’s perfect for when you want to make havoc and cause destruction. The best part is that it is free! Yep, the Tuk Tuk Boom Boom is completely free and can be downloaded right now.
Steam is running a special deal today-only for the classic Deus Ex series. Commemorating the 10th birthday, both Deus Ex games are available for a special price.
Deus Ex series incorporates RPG, action, adventure, and 1st-person shooter genres into a chaotic blend of real-world conspiracies, cliffhangers, and plot twists. The first Deus Ex game is definitely a classic, being considered one of the best PC games ever, while the second is good, but not great.
You can get each Deus Ex game for 75% off (U$2.49), or get both games for 75% off (U$4.98), for just 24 hours.
If you noticed, I said for the PS3. That is because the Xbox 360 version has been delayed. Currently the only information we have on the delay is that the DLC will now arrive “in the very near future” as stated on the Battlefield blog. As for the picture above being of the Xbox 360 version, that is because we already had that picture on the sites memory and it saves memory to reuse it.
Onslaught introduces more co-op gameplay to Bad Company 2’s multiplayer modes. It takes the Squad Rush mode and adds a time constraint as you and your teammates take on waves of enemy AI.
PS3 owners, you can download it right now. Xbox 360 owners will have to wait, but I have a video below for your viewing pleasure while you wait.
Microsoft (Major Nelson) has just released new information about an Xbox Live Gold package for families, which will include a four pack of gold memberships all available for the price of $99.
These are annual subscriptions and each one of the accounts will be controlled by a primary account that can be established upon purchase. The main user will have the ability to monitor the online activity and give out Microsoft Points purchased for the accounts. There is even a Family Center option which will include special family content and discounts too.
With the Kinect coming out in November, and the scheduled release date for this new package in November, it is curious if this is just a coincidence, or timing.
