The Legend Will Live on Forever
Soul Caluibur 4 will be released on XBox 360 and PS3 this fall, but the 360 has an exclusive download on it's system. That exclusive is the original Soul Calibur that was released for Dreamcast 9 years ago. Not much is currently known about the game in it's current state but it has been confirmed that all of the characters from the original will be included as well as all the levels and features. There will also be online multi-player and online leaderboards.
This is fantastic news to anyone who wants to play the original Soul Calibur, but doesn't want to go rummaging for their old DC and controllers that have been sucked into the quicksand that is in everyone's storage spaces. No word on a release date or price yet, but look for more news here soon.
There is no Antidote for This Snake Bite
If you pre-ordered Metal Gear Solid 4 for PS3, you can go and download the MGS4: Online beta using the key you received when you preordered the game. The 700 MB file requires you to create an account via Konami.com before you can beging shooting others in the face.
Oh, another thing. You can't play it until Monday when the beta officially goes public. Sorry to lead you on like that. My sincerest apologies.
If I had a friend with a PS3 who pre-ordered the game I would be all over this like a fat man on a ham. Unfortunately my friend's and I are cheap. Again, my sincerest apologies.
Rock Band has a Wii Amount of Songs
To make up for the lack of Downloadable Content (DLC)and the delays that were made to the Wii version of Rock Band Harmonix are including some DLC for free on the game and a slick white drum kit. The following songs are going to be included in the soon to be released Wii version.
=-"Dirty Little Secret" -- All American Rejects
=-"Don't Look Back in Anger" -- Oasis
=-"Roam" -- The B52's
=-"Rockaway Beach" -- The Ramones
=-"Roxanne" -- The Police
In my humble opinion, this is a rip-off. I understand that you want free songs and a sweet white drumset, but the game lacks all of the online components that add replayability to the game. I have convinced one of my dorm-mates to get shitloads of DLC and he's just borrowing my copy of Rock Band. The online components help to add new, better songsto your library as well as playing online with and against others and without those features I don't see how the 170 dollar price tag can be justified. The songs that are included aren't even very good when you compare it to the higher quality stuff thats on there like the Grateful Dead Pack, Boston Pack, Harmonix Pack, and Still Alive. If you own a 360 or a PS3, go buy Rock Band for those systems, you get more value for your hard-earned dollar.
