One Last Hurrah for Call of Duty: Black Ops: Zombies DLC Out Today

Call of Duty: Black Ops is getting (what I would suspect to be) its final installment of DLC.  The awesome zombie map pack, "Resurrection" goes live on the PlayStation 3 and PC today.  The DLC will cost $15 bucks, but gamers who bought the Hardened and Prestige editions of CoD:BO can download it for free.  The DLC features the new Moon map, as well as four re-masterd classic zombie maps.  You can check out our impressions of it here.  It's got zombies, space, and dual laser blasters.  What more could you want?  To celebrate the launch of this DLC Treyarch is having a Double XP weekend.  Time to prestige.

New Video for Ratchet and Clank: All 4 One Features a Big Boss Battle

Sad that you're missing out on the beta?  Not that one. I'm talking about the beta for Ratchet and Clank: All 4 One.  We've got a video that will give a glimpse of what you've been missing.  A giant Z'Grute is attacking the city of Luminopolis, and it's up to Ratchet and pals to stop it.  If this video floats your boat, but you still don't have a beta code, never fear!  According to Playstation.blog, if you pre-order from Amazon between now and September 26th you'll get into the beta!  You can also find the beta on RatchetandClank.com, while supplies last.  Is it just me, or is "beta" the new "demo?"  No matter.  You can see our impressions of the beta here.

Rich Knuckles is Back in Another Serious Sam: BFE Video

He's back!  Rich Knuckles, everyone's favorite helpline operator, returns in another ridiculous spot for Serious Sam 3: BFE.  You won't find any moldy Nazi zombies or sissy terrorist organizations in this game, and he's not afraid to tell you to take your business elsewhere.  His rejection only makes me want the game even more!  The video features some chunky melee action, which is always nice.  Oh, and stuff blows up.  Go figure.

Battlefield 3 Co-Op Design Details Revealed

Battlefield 3 is just over a month away and the multiplayer versus beta is kicking off in just days on September 29th, so our cravings for the DICE developed title grow with each passing day.  While I managed to get a tease of the game's co-op mode at PAX last month, the small snippet left a lot to the imagination as to just how the co-op mode will play out.  Today though, new information has been revealed describing what players will be experiencing in the two player online cooperative mode.

The latest title update for Halo Reach has finally put an end to the issue with gamers needing a HDD to play co-op

Finally You Can Play Halo Reach in Co-Op with No HDD!

A new title update has been launched for Halo: Reach!  Who cares (I hear you ask) when Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary is out November 15th?  Apart from the millions of people still regularly playing the game, co-op fans should also take note.  Some of you may remember the co-op controversy at launch, when owners of HDD free 360s could not play the game in co-op.  This has finally been fixed in the latest patch, along with a multitude of other tweaks and twiddles designed to draw Reach and Anniversary together.

Dark Souls Goes Gold, Destroys Early Players, Watch the Complete Prologue

Screw winter.  Dark Souls is coming.  The "sequel" to one of the most difficult games of this console generation has gone gold, and it's coming for you.  From Software crafted a truly diabolical game in 2009's Demon's Souls, and they're back at the helm for this menacing spiritual successor.   How vicious are the makers of Dark Souls?  Word on the webs is that some Japanese gamers have acquired the game before the scheduled September 22nd release date.  The developer's solution?  Invade these players' online games with high level Black Phantoms.  And by high level, I mean 99's across all stats.  From Software doesn't mess around with a ban hammer.  They have a damn kill hammer.

Second Dev Diary For Dungeon Defenders Focuses on the Build Phase

Dungeon Defenders has been a long time coming to consoles and PC.  It has been delayed for over a year while making the rounds on Android and iOS platforms.  For those of you who don't know, Dungeon Defenders is an action RPG/tower defense hybrid that offers character customization and sweet, sweet loot.   It's shaping up to be one heck of a downloadable title.  It's absolutely packed with features which you can see here.  This new video from Trendy Entertainment focuses on the build phase of the game, where you prepare your defenses before the onslaught of the enemy hordes.

House of the Dead: Overkill - Extended Cut Amazon Pre-Order Sale

You can pick up House of the Dead: Overkill - Extended Cut at a reduced price right now on Amazon.  The Move-supported rail shooter is going for $29.99.  That's $10 off the regular price.  I played the heck out of the Wii version, which we gave a 4 out of 5 in our Co-Op Review.  It's got a cheese-tastic story and great(?) B-movie voice acting.  Plus F-bombs.  Lots and lots of F-bombs.  The PS3 version boasts more levels and improved graphics.  These deals don't last long, so pick it up RIGHT NOW!
