Devil May Cry 4: Prologue & Cutscene Videos

I guess Capcom's final Devil May Cry 4 trailer wasn't the final trailer after all. Today they released two new videos. The first one being the opening video to the game (don't watch if your saving the moment for it's release). The second one being a cutscene from the beginning of the game as well. We think it's real time but are unsure. Enjoy!

Devil May Cry 4: PLAYSTATION 3 Version to Feature Exclusive Content?

According to a 1UP preview for Capcom's upcoming February 2008 release of Devil May Cry 4, the game looks and plays better on the PLAYSTATION 3.

The latest issue of Japanese magazine, Famitsu, reveals that the PLAYSTATION 3 version will support exclusive content such as 5.1 support, PLAYSTATION Network support, and optional installation on the hard drive to cancel out load times.

No word on what Capcom wants the PLAYSTATION Network for, whether it's new content, levels, characters, or even multiplayer. None of these features were stated in the Xbox 360 version though.

Here are some new images of Bandai Namco's celshaded Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit for the PLAYSTATION 3 and Xbox 360, coming 2008. The new title keeps the missed Budokai style, and if its intended to do so, it will probably be dubbed Budokai 4 in the states. Personally, I'm very excited for this title.

Penny Arcade Bashes Mark Rein on Unreal Tournament III Mod Support

Penny Arcade's Tycho lays down the reality of the PLAYSTATION 3 mod support for Unreal Tournament III as said by Mark Rein.

"As Huckster General for Epic MegaGames, of course you have interpreted your products with the maximum charity. As a consumer, I've assessed them by a more robust standard. Be sure to send any other tidbits my way in the future, so that I may again separate wheat from chaff."

Or rather, how you can't put mods on the PLAYSTATION 3 version of Unreal Tournament III, at least not yet. Read his full correction list at the link below.

New Street Fighter IV Information: Fast Game

1UP has done some quick impressions on Capcom's upcoming Street Fighter IV for next-gen consoles (most likely). They describe it as a fast paced fighter.

"The first thing we noticed upon grabbing the joysticks, selecting our characters, and pressing 'start' is that the game is fast."

Fast fighters are my type of game. Most likely for all others who like their matches to last, they will probably fix that situation though.

Teen Opens PLAYSTATION 3, Finds Phone Book Instead

The Holidays have just passed and many of us has received a PLAYSTATION 3 for the big present of the day. The same happened with 13 year old Brandon Burns. He received a PLAYSTATION 3 like many of us, but when he opened it up, instead of finding his console, he found a phone book sealed inside.

He laughed when it happened, but his parents were not happy, considering they bought the $500 80GB version of the console. According to a spokesperson for the store involved, the matter has since been resolved.

Imagine that.

We all knew Portal was going to be a great game, but I don't think we've ever though it would get this much reception. Whether it was cake jokes, to companion cubes, to now Legos.

The crafty Lego makers over at Brickshelf constructed this concoction. Lego Portal. It doesn't get any better.... or does it.
