Optimus Prime In A More Familiar, Downloadable Outfit

This summer, you will be able to add to the Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen roster through the magic of downloadable content. We don’t know when, we don’t know for how much. We do know this robot, though.

Activision has released more images of Transformers that will be part of the bundle. We’ve got original-style Optimus Prime and new-style Soundwave.

These two robots join the original Starscream, the new TK and others for this upcoming DLC pack.

PS3 Getting Blue, Red Controllers

504x_newds3

While Japan has a few different PS3 colours to choose from, Americans are stuck with…black. Oh, and a silver controller. But only until October, because in October, there’ll be two new controller shades to choose from.

Those shades are “Deep Red” and “Metallic Blue”, both of which you’ve seen before as PSP colours.

Aksys Suggestively Bringing “Soul Breeding” Game Stateside

recordof

Aksys Games has launched a placeholder website for Record of Agarest War, the “soul breeding” Japanese strategy RPG that is completely distracting me with its teaser image. What were we talking about again?

Oh yes! Record of Agarest! We’ve mentioned the game on several different occasions, generally in the middle of the night when the kids were tucked safely in their beds, dreaming of…well, most likely dreaming of the same sort of things we were posting. We’ve studied the undearware differences between the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions, checked out some of the game’s artwork, and we even reported on the game coming to Europe.

I’d go into detail about what the game is about, and what “Soul Breeding” entails, but I think Aksys’ choice of teaser image speaks for itself.

Book’s & Game Purchases 7/27/09

Small Gamestop Rant

Does anyone else hate that Gamestop opens the games and sells them to you? I know i do, how do we know if they are selling us a new game, We Don’t!! Just the other day i went to Gamestop and they tried to sell me a New Game with out a box for 20.00 bucks WTF!! I think Gamestop needs to change their sell open game policy or they will soon lose my business and alot more. Only way you can get a new game unopened is to get it at launch. Does anyone else hate that?

Persona PSP Packed With Persona Soundtrack

personacd

The Atlus Spoils customer appreciation program continues to live up to its name, with the announcement that every launch copy of Shin Megami Tensei: Persona for the PSP comes packed with a two-disc soundtrack.

That’s right, two-discs, not just half the soundtrack, like the disc that shipped with Persona 4 for the PlayStation 2. The music is from long-time Megami Tensei composer Shoji Meguro, who collaborated with Hidehito Aoki, Kenichi Tsuchiya and Misaki Okibe on the original game’s music.

Of course, between the new localization, new animations, and the inclusion of the Frost Queen quest, which wasn’t in the North American version of the original Personal, MegaTen fans were going to buy this anyway, soundtrack or not. Still, it’s nice to know that there’ll be something extra waiting when they go to pick up the game on September 22nd.
