For fans of the UFC who are lucky enough to own a PS3, there’s an extra reason to grab a copy of UFC Undisputed 2010 – out now in the USA, out on May 27th in Australia!
Today, up-and-coming Light-Heavyweight fighter (and my/MasterAbbott’s favourite!) Jonny “Bones” Jones announced on Twitter that not only does he have his copy of the game, but that he’d also publish his PSN gamertag and take on any fans who want to jump into the (virtual) Octagon with him.
So the challenge is out there – if you think you have what it takes to mix it up with future champ, go get some! His gamertag is “jbjones205”.
If you’re a fan of Jonny Bones, follow him on Twitter as well: @jonnybones
What would you do if you had all the power in a land of racers? Would you create a track so brutal that you yourself could not even finish it? How about something so crazy that it has all of it’s racers unable to finish due to laughter. You can do that now with the release of Modnation Racers on the PS3 and PSP. Modnation Racers was released yesterday May 25th and now the havoc can begin.
With customization options rivaling Little Big Planet there is nothing you can’t do. You can make your own little world and force your friends to traverse it in their vehicles. You have the power and can make them go running home crying because they were destroyed by a hidden trap and ended up in last place. All the while your racer travels through various shortcuts and beats everybody by a mile.
Don’t just let anyone beat your track. Will Kevin Butler have to come to your house wearing those shorts? He’ll do it. You know he will. Listen to his advice and make your mark on the race track with Modnation Racers; or otherwise he could show up and then who knows what may happen.

Today Ubisoft has released a trailer for it’s latest offering in the Shaun White extreme sports game franchise, developed in conjunction with world-renowned skater and snowboarder, Shaun White. The details are still vague, and the actual trailer offers no gameplay footage, only a group of skateboarders doing what they do best. We can only guess that we will hear more on this forthcoming Shaun White game in the near future, presumably at E3. It remains to be seen from some actual gameplay footage whether or not this will be a contender with the likes of ‘Tony Hawk’ and ‘Skate’, although it definately shouldn’t be written off. It sounds promising but only a few small details have been revealed thus far.
All that can be depicted from the trailer, as well as confirmed by the developers, is that it Shaun White Skateboarding will put an ‘innovative spin’ on the action-sports genre by allowing you to transform the lifeless city you occupy, into a skating utopia. You will quite literally be able to ‘carve alleys into half-pipes’, ‘morph streets into ramps’, extend handrails into endless grinds’ and more.
The trailer that accompanied the announcement can be found below. As shown in the video, the game is set for release this fall 2010, but it is still early days and this could be set to change.

The newest game from the Front Mission series by Square Enix received a launch date: Front Missionn Evolved will be released on September 14 in North America, and September 17 in Europe.
The Front Mission series was always famous for their huge focus on strategy, but Evolved will be the first time the series takes a different approach, Front Mission Evolved will be a third-person shooter. The game is in development by the american Double Helix Games.
The curiosity about the result is really high right now, but you can expect a Capsule Computers review in the near future.
Below is the full Press Release and the Launch Trailer:
Square Enix Inc. the publisher of SQUARE ENIX® interactive entertainment products in North America, announced today that the North American launch date for FRONT MISSION EVOLVED™ has been updated to September 14, 2010. Developed in collaboration by Double Helix Games and Square Enix, the riveting third-person shooter will be available on PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system, Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, and in stereoscopic 3D for Windows PC.
FRONT MISSION EVOVLED breaks the mold of the franchise, delivering the action-packed experience of a third-person shooter within the distinct aesthetic of the FRONT MISSION® universe. Set in a world full of destruction, conspiracy and crumbling alliances, players will take on the role of Dylan Ramsey to face enemy armies while in control of a giant, customizable, bipedal tank known as a wanzer. Every wanzer is outfitted with extreme firepower, and players must fight through critical battles across a world on the brink of total war. As they make their way through metropolises such as New York City over 150 years in the future, FRONT MISSION EVOLVED will embed players in heart-pounding, large-scale action unlike anything they’ve ever seen before.
In addition to the single-player campaign, four different multiplayer modes allow players to enter a new battlefield solo or in a team. Players will be able to pit their highly customized wanzers against opponents from around the world so they may prove the superiority of their own war machines.
“Both Square Enix and Double Helix Games are committed to delivering the ultimate, evolved FRONT MISSION experience,” said Ami Blaire, Vice President, Marketing of Square Enix, Inc. “This installment advances the franchise into the third-person shooter genre, and come fall, fans will be blown away by the high-octane action that FRONT MISSION EVOLVED offers.”

Choose from dozens of weapons and parts, including weapons that can be equipped on both hands and shoulders, to customize your wanzer and blast your way to victory.

Though we hinted at a possible release date internationally previously, it has now been confirmed by Namco Bandai that they will be releasing Knights Contract in 2011 across the seas and in America for both the PS3 and the Xbox 360. There is also a tad bit more of information as well. Remember the witch who seemed to be just a partner character that was unplayable? It turns out that she is actually the one who holds the strings to Heinrich, the brutal warrior. Heinrich had killed Gretchen for the crime of being the witch she was, but now she is alive again and has wrapped her cursed hands around Heinrich’s life and made him immortal and her slave. For he is forced to protect her against monsters straight out of the worst possible nightmares and does so in a gruesome fashion. See the trailer and more information at our previous post.
