Sure, by the time BioShock releases on the PlayStation 3 this week, Xbox 360 and PC gamers will have been able to play it for 14 months. But don’t worry, Sony fans. 2K Games is giving you something for your patience. They’ve announced that a DLC pack with new gameplay exclusive to the PS3 version will be released on November …

Can you believe that the Xbox 360 has actually outsold the PS3 in Japan now for 4 weeks running. That really is quite a feat and while the numbers are still low it must worry Sony a bit, I remember people saying that Microsoft cannot win this war without taking Japan. I have never believed that to be honest but …

That's right, they are all DLC that should have been free. Ever since Soul Calibur IV was released with it's exclusive Star Wars characters (Vader for PS3 and Yoda for Xbox 360) there have been rumours that they would become available on the other systems as DLC. Those rumours have finally been put to rest now that it has been announced that the characters will be made available, for a price, of course. You will be looking at 400 MS points on Live and around a R45 on PSN. Considering that most fans of the Soul Calibur franchise think that the Star Wars characters are abominations and an insult to the game, I can't say that I think that they will be pleased to be spending extra money to get one extra out-of-place character. As I have mentioned before, I am a huge fan of Star Wars. Not only that but SCIV is the first fighting game that I have enjoyed in ages, especially with it's online multiplayer. So I am a perfect gamer to target for this DLC and you know what? I can't be bothered.

Skate 2 'Hall of Meat' trailer The ability to cause pain in Skate 2 just tripled after this! Normally falling of the board would be a bad thing, Black box just made it awesome! Last Updated: October 17, 2008

Guitar Hero World Tour 'Tool' trailer HD Tool has not licensed their songs for use in 12 years and Guitar Hero World Tour is the first product to break that trend. Here’s how Activision pulled it off. 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.
