Super Scribblenauts Headphones Pre-Order Bonus


And I though Maxwell’s rooster hat from the first game was cool. PLUSH headphones that work. In camo, to boot! I have to have a pair just to wear while playing the game (as I’m one of the few humans left on the planet that actually doesn’t listen to music through headphones anymore while out in public).

Super Scribblenauts spells its way into stores on October 12, 2010. Be there or be S-Q-U-A-R-E.

A little late, but better than never! Alrighty then – here are 20 EOII screens PLUS tantalizing peeks at the 60-page pre-order art book (go pre-order the game if you want this bonus, duh!) and the very handy fold-out poster (which doesn’t require any pre-ordering as it’s packed lovingly inside the game case). Atlus just loves you now, don’t they? Remember folks, September 21, 2010 is riiiight around the corner…

(Hmmm… I could have done a lame-o “Can You Spot The Differences Between The Two Photos?” joke with those two pics, but that’s a wee bit too obvious…)


Call of Duty: Black Ops Collector’s Editions Revealed

Well, it looks as if Activision has outdone last year’s Modern Warfare 2 pack-in, folks. As you can see by the pic above, Call of Duty: Black Ops Prestige Edition will include a cool RC vehicle inspired by the RC-XD remote-controlled car from this year’s multiplayer portion of the game. There will also be a Call of Duty: Black Ops Hardened Edition that will feature a limited edition Black Ops medal, a custom skin for Xbox 360 Avatars (what, no PS3 love? – I’ll have to ask about this) and four unique multiplayer maps.

Both limited edition versions are now available for pre-order at major game retailers, so definitely hoof it on over and put down that deposit if you’re in the market for a cool set of bonus items to go with what’s shaping up to be a pretty hot shooter.

Left 4 Dead 2 Pre-Order Details (Or: If You’ve Got Braaaaains, You’d Better Be Pre-Ordering…)

And I bet some of you thought there wouldn’t be any cool stuff with this sequel… HA! Valve proves you wrong yet again… but in the nicest of ways (and without having to fly you out to Seattle at their expense). Now, be a good zombie killer and click on over to Steam or boogie on down to that favorite game emporium.

And er, you may want to hurry it up a bit, hedgehog – there’s something chasing you y’know… and DON’T startle the damn witch, please… (Shhhh!)

Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles Ship Date, Awesome Pre-Order T-Shirt Revealed

Leave it to Capcom to go and cook up one of the coolest, craziest pre-order T-shirts I’ve ever seen (beating even that insanely groovy tie-dyed Raz T-shirt from Psychonauts) and they know it. Gamers who pre-order Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles for the Wii from GameStop will receive a ridiculously versatile T that, when pulled over the head, turns into an instant zombie disguise.

The T’s were first introduced at this year’s San Diego Comic-con and of course, the killer reaction from the crowds meant more gamers will get the chance to nab one of these goodies. It’s goofy… but really effective at first glance, as you’ll see below: Continue reading

Atlus Does a SMT: Persona Double Launch With A Twist…

Once again, Atlus is giving RPG fans the love with a super-cool premium item AND a nice way to kick off the launch of Sony’s upcoming PSP GO! handheld. The remake of the classic PSOne RPG, Shin Megami Tensei Persona will get a simultaneous release in UMD format on the PSP as well as a download version for the PSP GO! on September 22, 2009.

Atlus isn’t letting PSP GO! owners get the really cool stuff, however (although Persona IS a truly deep and mind-bending RPG any discerning genre fan should play). Gamers who pre-order the retail release of SMT:P through retailers such as Amazon or GameStop will get a nice bonus: a 2-disc soundtrack composed by Shoji Meguro. They’ll also get the cool Collector’s Edition box it all comes in, as Atlus doesn’t want gamers walking home holding those CD’s over your head if it happens to rain on launch day… Continue reading
