It looks like the holiday video game season is here, and Microsoft isn’t taking it lightly. As if we won’t have enough to spend our money on in the next few weeks, Xbox Live is getting 2 really awesome games. Last Updated: October 17, 2008
I know that this trailer is only for the map editor in Far Cry 2 but honestly, if this trailer doesn't sell you on the game then nothing will. Even though I have already seen the map editor being demoed, it really doesn't come close to seeing what you are actually going to be capable of making. That recreation of the pyramids was awesome and the rock statues were super cool as well. I don't think that I fully understand exactly how much can actually be done with this editor yet but I will tell you that I think it is going to change the way that it is an insanely great tool to get with a game. You however may thing that it's nothing but a novelty. What do you think? Awesome or nothing special?
Earlier today we posted that game prices will be seeing a hike as of the 27th of October. While we were worried that games may be seeing as much as R850 per title, it looks like we might be able to relax a little bit. South African distributor Megarom have seen the article and have sent me a price list of the titles that will be releasing after that date and I can happily say that while the price increase will still happen, we won't likely be seeing the prices that we feared. Prices and more after the jump. From what I have seen on this price list, there will be no standard titles that will exceed the R699 mark. Here is a list of some of the big titles coming from Megarom. If any other distributors would like to clarify any of there RRP's please feel free to mail me at nick@lazygamer.co.za. End of October: James Bond - Quantum of Solace: R679 Fallout 3 - R679.00 Legendary - R679.00 November: Tom Clancy's End War - R699.00 Call of Duty: World at War - R679.00 Guitar Hero World Tour - Standalone Game - R679.00 Shaun White Snowboarding - R699.00 Naruto - The Broken Bond - R699.00 December Prince of Persia - R699.00 So there you have it folks, while the prices are going up, they are at least not going to be going up to what we had feared which is a bit less of a kick in the pants from the economic crisis. Also, many people are reporting to us that preorder prices are not looking like they are going to be locked down at all in most cases, so be advised.
Sneaky sneaky, the developers of Bioshock have included a teaser trailer of Bioshock 2 into the game when you finish it on the new Playstation 3 version. For those of you who cannot view videos at work, the video shows a not-so little sister standing staring out into the ocean whilst holding a Big Daddy doll. As the camera pans out behind her, a small scale "sandcastle" version of Rapture starts being pushed up out of the sand. More details after the jump. The game will apparently be taking place on the Atlantic coast and by the looks of things, this "little" sister could mean trouble. There are no details on what platforms it will be available for first but we can probably assume that it will release on both the Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3 simultaneously. Exciting stuff, I wonder if they will make that doll apart of the Limited Edition. That would be pretty damn cool.
You know... this is starting to get out of hand. Just last week I reported that Fallout 3 had already been leaked out onto the internet and now, Far Cry 2 and Gears of War 2 have joined them. The image above is actually from what seems to be a Gamestop manager and is not linked directly to the leaked games. (read more about them below). How does it feel to know that a whole group of pirate scumbags are already playing the games that you have been waiting for for so long. To make it worse, the leaching bastards didn't even pay for them. More after the jump. What kind of idiot gets a copy of a game and then actually dedicates some of his time to ripping it and uploading it to the internet. It has been reported that Gamestop managers had already received their copies of the game and now this happens. If it isn't this then it's game reviewers. Before we know it, sites like us are only going to receive review copies of games AFTER their release dates to stop idiots like that from getting it out onto the net, either that or they will need to start adding some sort of system and/or unique ID onto review copies to stop people from leaking games. Interestingly enough, it seems to be the Xbox 360 games leaking and not the PC ones. We all have to stand together and realise that we are only damaging ourselves. If you can't afford the game then you can't play it and that's that. There is a reason that we don't all drive Italian sports cars.
You may or may not have seen the Xbox 360 Christmas bundles being announce across the world over the past few weeks, well if you have then you will be happy to see that we are not being ignored and if you haven’t you will be happy to know we are getting great bundles. See everyone’s a winner. Anyway to …
