Remember that game? Where the main menu was the best part of the game? Yeah, that’s it Scribblenauts. Well a sequel is in development and planned for release this fall (As with all release dates this is subject to change.)
According to Nintendo the game will include “10,000 more words” and “120 new and improved levels,” the ability to use adjectives will also be included. It was also noted that the games controls will be worked on and updated.
Did anyone buy the first one? Will you be buying this one? What do you think?
G’day everyone. MasterAbbott would like to share this cool deal for all our US readers. EA/Biowares masterpiece is now on special at AMAZON for only $39.99. If you haven’t already pick it up yet then here is your chance.

Valve Announced that Steam and Source support for the Mac.
Steam and Valve’s lineup of games including Left 4 Dead 2, Team Fortress 2, Counter-Strike, Portal, and the Half-Life series will be available to Mac users this April, but from here on out, simultaneous cross-platform releases should be the normal.
Portal 2 will be the first game to launch simultaneously on both the PC and the Mac. But don’t get confuses, Portal 2 is still not coming out until the holiday season. It will just be the first game to release on the PC and Mac at the same exact time. All the other games are already on the PC so they cannot launch simultaneously.
Thoughts:
The Call of Duty: World at War Map Pack Bundle features the nine multiplayer maps and three co-op Zombie maps from Map Packs 1, 2, & 3.
That is a lot of content, and comes out to about 533.3MSP each. If you are a fan of Call of Duty: World at War, now is a good time to pick up all 3 map packs in this bundle.
The only downside is that, all three map packs have been on sale before for 400MSP each at separate times, and most people who play CoD:WaW already bought the map packs at those times.

Thoughts: Drift around corners with guns blazing and take out legendary competitors in this fast-paced, top-down racing game. This game looks quite interesting and has a lot of customization. It also includes avatar awards!
G’day everyone. MasterAbbott is back for another one of his Limited Edition UNBOXINGs. I love unboxing stuff !! 😉 Today we have the newly released Square Enix RPG masterpiece Final Fantasy XIII. The unboxing was done with the XBOX 360 version of the game. There is practically no difference between the XBOX 360 and the PS3 apart from the number of play discs. Playstation 3 has everyone on one Blu-Ray disc, where as the XBOX 360 the game is on THREE dics.
Check out the video review below

The Final Fantasy XIII – Limited Collector’s Edition is priced at $139.99 AUS which as always is WAY WAY TOO Much compared to what the rest of the normal gaming world pays for video games. So I have to say that unless your a true Final Fantasy fan I wouldn’t recommend. If you just want to play the game then stick to the regular edition for a far cheaper price.
Content Review : 6.5 Capsules Out Of 10
Purchase only if your a true Final Fantasy fan and want the extra little things such as the sound track and Story of Final Fantasy collectors book.

Recently Bizarre Creations announced that there is no DLC for Blur in development, but they do have plans for DLC in the future. According to lead designer Ged Talbot, throughout the year or more of development not a single team has worked on any sort of DLC.
Bizarre Creations assures everyone that DLC is coming, just not on the release day. So everyone who buys the game will have to be happy with the 50 cars and 30 racing locales coming on the disc for a little while. (As well as pre-order bonuses depending on where you buy the game.
Haven’t already pre-order your copy of Final Fantasy XIII, then check out the deals at Target and Amazon, maybe one of these will wet your appetite for the game.
Target is offering a $10 gift card with purchase of either the Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 version.
Amazon is offering a $10 pre-order incentive credit towards future video game purchases for both versions as well.
If you don’t like either of these deals you can always pre-order from Gamestop and receive “a 32-page mini strategy guide. This mini guide contains direct samples from Piggyback’s 260-page, complete guide to Final Fantasy XIII. Available for store customers only, while supplies last. In-Store Pickup / Store Customers: Mini strategy guide will be available at time of reservation.”
Me personally, I’d buy the game at Target and then use the $10 gift card towards the guide (but we all know you don’t really need the guide…)
Also if you live in Australia check out the great deals over at fishpond for Final Fantasy XIII. Where ever you are around the world you should be able to grab yourself a great deal on the game.

Ubisoft have released some very useful information regarding Splinter Cell Conviction multiplayer. The multipayer campaign will be a totally original experience focusing on the events prior to the single player campaign, with 4 exclusive maps, new settings new characters and a total of 5-6 hours of additional gameplay. There will also be 3 difficulty levels.
The Prologue Coop Story mode sends the players to Russia to discover the origins of the Threat against Washington. Together, Archer & Kestrel (playable characters) will embark on a mission that will require their cooperation and combined skills: that will test their (but really your) mettle every step of the way, and that will shake their very convictions as special agents.
Check out the trailer and everything including all the playable modes including extras will be revealed !! 🙂
