Valkyria Chronicles DLC Inbound?

Written By Adam

Over on Valkyria Chronicles Tweeter page there is a mysterious message simply stating:

“Something new loom’s on Gallia’s horizon…. are you ready?”

Now is this the DLC that Japan has already received, or is it something completely different. One would figure it is way to early to think it is a sequel, but you never know.

Whether it’s DLC or a sequel those of us who have played this wonderful game will be sitting on the edge of our seats in anticipation for further news. As always keep checking back for anymore details we uncover.

Deals of the Week 3/1 – 3/7

Written by Adam

It’s the first week in March and we got the deals you want. No deals on PS3 systems this week, but there are a lot of great games:

Heavenly Sword Review

Written by Adam

We’ve all heard the comparisons… ‘Goddess of War’ is what Heavenly sword was being called up until release. Some say this is a bad thing, but honestly with the greatness that is God of War I can’t say I would complain about the comparisons. Now is this just another run of the mill hack and slasher, or does it truly deserve to be put on the shelf with God of War?

This Week’s Blu-Cast

Written by Azariah

March is upon us. Hopefully that means Spring is not too far behind. Blu-Ray releases for the week seem to be in the middle of an ice storm. There are some highlights. Make that two highlights. Silence of the Lambs will be available this upcoming Tuesday. The movie that gave the world Hannibal is definitely worth a purchase. Watchmen: The Complete Motion Comic is also coming our way this Tuesday. You can pick it up and get a gander of what the movie may be like. Those of you that have not read the graphic novel may want to give this a try. If you don’t want to ruin the movie, you may want to hold off. Wonder Woman is getting an animated feature and Stargate fans can rejoice for another Stargate release.

Blast Factor Review

Written by Adam

Blast Factor was one of the first PSN games available for download. It is a top down shooter that has you taking control of a little ship in order to destroy a plethora of viruses. It compares well to other games in its genre, but does it stand on its own or simply get shuffled to the back?

GTA Hasn’t Abandoned the PSP

Written by Azariah

Hope to see another on the PSP soon

GTA: Chinatown Wars looks to be a great title. Rockstar is well known for putting out high quality titles. Many PSP owners were upset to see that the PSP did not receive another title while the DS was receiving its first. PlayStation has already lost out on its exclusivity for the GTA franchise. This was further cemented by the appearance of exclusive DLC for GTA IV on the 360. John Koller is helping to calm those that are in dispair. Here is an excerpt from his interview with MTV Multiplayer:

Killzone 2 Update Sends Bots to the Barracks

Written by Richard

Last night Guerrilla Games took notice of some truly skilled players shooting up the ranks (pun intended). As it turns out, there was some exploitation with the online bots feature. Servers were setup with an obscene amount of bots in order to create a Helghast or ISA shooting gallery.  Guerrilla had this to say…

Rumor: New God of War Title for the PSP?

Written by Paulmichael

Hopefully the title's a bit more creative than this!

Developer Ready At Dawn Studios was originally done with the PSP format back in June. Apparently, however, Sony has ordered up a sequel to last year’s excellent God of War: Chains of Olympus, and as such rumor has it that work has begun on a sequel. While the game, if it does exist, probably won’t ship this year, it looks like the PSP is really starting to pick up the pace again!

Japan To Receive Another New Home Space

Written by Paulmichael

Probably won't see this stateside anytime soon...

The Japanese version of PS Home beta is pretty well-known for receiving Home Spaces early and relatively often. This time around, it is an Irem space. Irem is famous for the R-Type series of games. It is dubbed the “Irem Plaza” and is meant to look like traditional Japanese festivals.

Sony Is Seeking Synergy

Written by Azariah

The current economic woes that the world is enduring has caused several companies to fold in the recent months. Other companies have decided to make some changes in order to better deal with these awful times. Sony is doing the latter. The company is creating 2 new divisions that will better allow the company to manage its various businesses. The one that is of greatest interest to us is the one that Kaz Hirai is heading up. This division will manage Vaio PCs and the PlayStation brand.  Maybe the PS4 will be a computer after all?

Opinion: Should Chris Brown’s music be removed from video games, too?

Written by stalkingsilence

What could Sony do to avoid a PR crisis?

“You got Chris Brown in my SingStar!”  “You got my SingStar in Chris Brown!”  No matter how you look at it, controversial pop star Chris Brown will have at least two songs in the upcoming SingStar Pop Edition (PS3) – his solo hit “Without You” and his duet with Jordin Sparks “No Air” are on the game’s tracklist and will be included on the disc.  The game, sometimes referred to as SingStar Vol. 4 since it will be the fourth PS3 SingStar disc to come out in the UK, also includes the much-anticipated wireless microphones (wireless but still has a USB dongle for PS2-compatibility) and enhanced functionality to allow voice-controlled song selection.
